# Some By Mi vs Garnier SkinActive

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/compare/some-by-mi-vs-garnier-skinactive

The Lovi Fit is the same in every country; only the stores and prices differ, and the ones here are for the Netherlands.

Some By Mi and Garnier SkinActive are skincare brands known for their distinct formulations, with the Korean line focusing on [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/serum), cleansers, toners, and moisturizers built around [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/niacinamide), [centella asiatica](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/centella-asiatica), and [salicylic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/salicylic-acid), while the French line offers makeup removers, moisturizers, exfoliants, and sunscreens featuring [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/glycerin). The first brand suits dry sensitive skin and skin with dark spots best, whereas the second brand serves acne-prone skin and oily skin best through targeted formulations. They differ because the former brand utilizes active ingredients like salicylic acid to reduce acne lesions and maintain clarity, while the latter brand relies on glycerin to significantly increase hydration and reduce [water](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/water) loss.

Some By Mi is a Korean skincare brand founded in 2016 and owned by JKL Partners since 2021.
