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

Sand & Sky and Deconstruct are distinct skincare labels that cater to modern routines with specialized formulations. Sand & Sky is beloved for its purifying masks and targeted botanical formulas that gently clarify and balance the complexion, suiting combination, oily, and acne-prone skin best. Conversely, the Indian brand is cherished by skincare enthusiasts for its reliable sunscreens and scientifically sound formulas with lightweight textures. While both brands offer standout solutions for acne-prone skin, such as the [Australian Pink Clay](https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/ingredients/pink-clay) Porefining Face Mask and the Gel Sunscreen, they differ primarily in their core offerings and geographic origins.

Deconstruct is an Indian skincare brand founded in 2020 and owned by Baypure Lifestyle Private Limited.
