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

Bioderma and Simple are esteemed European skincare brands founded in 1977 and 1960, respectively, that offer gentle moisturizers, makeup removers, cleansers, and additional products. Bioderma features nourishing [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/sa/ingredients/glycerin) to best suit sensitive and combination skin, while Simple incorporates [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/sa/ingredients/niacinamide) and glycerin to best suit acne-prone and oily skin. The former relies on French dermatological heritage, whereas the latter delivers British accessible care.

Bioderma is a French skincare brand founded in 1977 and owned by Jean-Noël Thorel Foundation since 2018.
