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 a barrier lipid that locks moisture in, often recommended for dry or sensitive skin; the other is a milder PHA used to refine surface texture.

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

Neither product lists paraben and mineral oil. The The History of Whoo side does include fragrance, sodium benzoate and phenoxyethanol, so if fragrance or preservatives are a concern, the VT option may sit easier.

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 61%, or roughly ₩103,250. If you want a similar ingredient makeup at a lighter price, this is an ampoule worth trying first.

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.
