In the full lists, 13 ingredients overlap.

Who it's for

Good forFirmnessDryness

A good fit if you care about wrinkles and firmness while keeping skin hydrated. Both use hyaluronic acid and firming peptide ingredients to hold moisture and support firmness.

What works and what to weigh

Upsides
  • Firming core on par with the original
  • No fragrance or silicones
  • About 93% cheaper
Trade-offs

Key shared ingredients · 2 (1 uncommon)

The key ingredients both products share — the basis for the match.

Hyaluronic AcidHydrationKorea MFDS-listedwidely used

A signature humectant that pulls in and holds water, leaving skin hydrated and smooth.

Acetyl Hexapeptide-8PeptideKorea MFDS-listed

A peptide often used for areas prone to expression lines.

The lists are long, so the reference line lands late and the reading becomes unreliable. So we cannot tell how much of each shared ingredient these two products actually contain, and we would rather say that than guess.

Before you reach for this dupe

  • COSRX includes a preservative within the regulated limit. It is generally fine. If your skin is sensitive, start with a small amount on your inner arm.

How skin responds to ingredients varies from person to person. If your skin is sensitive or you have a specific condition, check with a doctor first.

How we pick a dupe

We compare the full ingredient lists and only pair products that share core actives. Prices are checked against 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 stores such as 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.

Product images are displayed from Naver Shopping search results, and the rights to each image belong to the respective seller or brand.
