# SKIN1004 vs Augustinus Bader

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/compare/skin1004-vs-augustinus-bader

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

SKIN1004 and Augustinus Bader are distinguished skincare houses offering distinct approaches to complexion care, with the former spanning toners, moisturizers, sunscreens, and masks built around [centella asiatica](https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/ingredients/centella-asiatica), [hyaluronic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/ingredients/hyaluronic-acid), and [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/ingredients/niacinamide), while the latter is loved for moisturizers, [serums](https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/ingredients/serum), and eye products centered on [proprietary](https://lovi.care/skincare/sg/ingredients/proprietary) formulas. Both brands suit dry skin best, though the Korean line also fits oily skin well, while the German brand excels for mature skin. They differ in their foundational philosophies, as the 2012 Asian label relies on botanical soothing agents to address acne, dark spots, and aging, whereas the 2018 European creator utilizes advanced preparations to support similar concerns.

SKIN1004 is a Korean skincare brand founded in 2012 and owned by Goodai Global Inc. since 2024.
