Why this dupe
The proof is in the ingredients, not the price

Who it's for
A good fit if you want fermented moisturizers to refill dry skin. Both carry a fermented moisturizer that keeps dry skin hydrated.

What works and what to weigh
- More moisture than the original
- Tone-care support too
- No fragrance or silicones
- About 90% cheaper

How we pick a dupe
We compare the full ingredient lists and only pair products that share core actives. Prices are checked against Naver market listings, and ingredients with Korea MFDS usage standards are flagged on the page.
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 and performs can differ by formulation and ingredient grade.
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.
