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

Elemis and RoC are established skincare brands from Britain and France, respectively, offering expertly formulated [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/ingredients/serum), moisturizers, and cleansers enriched with nourishing ingredients like [glycerin](https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/ingredients/glycerin). The British brand is known for utilizing [shea butter](https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/ingredients/shea-butter) to suit dry, balanced, and sensitive skin, while the French brand is celebrated for harnessing [retinol](https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/ingredients/retinol) to address mature and dry skin. Both options utilize glycerin to significantly increase skin hydration and improve barrier function, yet differ through their distinct hero ingredients and targeted formulations for specific needs.

Elemis is a British skincare brand founded in 1989 and owned by L'Occitane Group since 2019.
