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 signature humectant that pulls in and holds water, leaving skin hydrated and smooth; the other is amino-acid chains widely used for firmness and skin texture.

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

Neither product lists paraben and mineral oil. The The Ordinary does list phenoxyethanol and chlorphenesin 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 79%, or roughly ₩131,805. If you want a similar ingredient makeup at a lighter price, this is a serum 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.
