  • Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Jenny Liu shares her favorite swaps for popular more expensive skincare finds. Skincare is so personal, and aside from finding products that work, budget is definitely a major concern. I love these expensive items but also understand not everyone is able to afford. I don't 'believe in dupes, but these alternatives are very similar in formulation and texture. I hope you find this hopeful.

    A k-beauty alternative video might be interesting for some of the pricier brands like Sulwhasoo (their first serum), Donginbi (gingseng), AmorePacific, History of Whoo, Cho Gong Jin, etc. I've seen a recent video suggesting the One Thing galactomyces ferment filtrate that's been compared to the SK-II (but a lot of galactomyces essences have been). Though the drawback from some might be that they have large containers like 10 ounce or 5.5. ounce.

    Interesting subs. I have not tried the Olay Regenerist moisturizer, however, everything else I have tried from the brand has severely irritated my skin. I wonder if that means the Alastin would have the same effect. Obviously not worth the money to find out.

    I’ve tried SkinCeuticals one and I find it to be quite irritating and the fact that it’s not packed in airtight container bothers me so much. And I don’t know why nobody ever talks about this but SkinCeuticals leaves brown stains on my face and they last all day, I’m an Asian with a warm undertone and this is another major turn-off for me. Prequel has similar ingredients but it doesn’t irritate my skin and it doesn’t leave brown stains all over my face, been using it for three months and it does wonders for my skin!

    Skinceuticals oxidizes quickly and it’s a ripoff imho. Speaking from personal experience, there are far too many cheaper yet works just as good. My holy grail is 20% Timeless. Gotten awesome results for a steal of a price.

    Vitamin C, E and Ferulic acid are not expensive ingredients. The only thing that makes that so expensive is GREED by Skinceutical . I’m glad there are good alternatives out there, so sick of greedy cosmetic companies treating consumers like idiots who will buy any over priced products with fancy advertising

      So True!! And the fact that it is in a dropper bottle and not an airless pump, I don’t trust the efficacy.
