Fragrance, parabens, etc. that some prefer to avoid. Products within labeled limits are generally fine.

Compared by full ingredient list. It does not mean concentration or texture are identical, and prices are as of the listed time.

What the ingredients show

The two products share a couple of core actives. One is an organic filter that absorbs UVB rays; the other is an organic UVA and UVB filter.

Across the full lists, both focus on moisture and uv. They don't share every ingredient, but the payoff lands in a similar place.

Neither product lists fragrance, paraben and mineral oil. The La Roche-Posay does list phenoxyethanol though, so check the label if your skin tends to react to those.

A close ingredient list doesn't mean the strength or the texture matches. The same ingredient can feel different depending on how much is used and how it's made, so treat the shared ingredients as a starting point rather than a promise.

The price gap is about 53%, or roughly ₩30,450. If you want a similar ingredient makeup at a lighter price, this is a sunscreen worth trying first.

Disclaimer

This comparison is based on full-ingredient (INCI) data published under cosmetics law.

Shared ingredients mean the full-ingredient lists overlap, not that blend concentrations match; how a product feels can differ by formulation and origin.

Prices are market-verified against Naver and Coupang and may differ from official store prices; discounts and temporary changes may not be reflected, so check the seller before buying.

For sensitive skin, eczema, pregnancy or other special cases, please do not decide on this analysis alone and consult a dermatologist.
