    for Paula's Choice 10% Niacinamide Booster

    $5.40vs $53−93% per oz

    $5.32 / fl oz against $78.37 / fl oz. Both list Niacinamide.

    #1 in Facial Serums on Amazon

    Same active at the same strength: 10% niacinamide, second on both lists right after water, in a thin serum for pores, oil and uneven tone.

    What it does worse: Paula's Choice adds acetyl glucosamine, a vitamin C derivative and licorice for brightening, while The Ordinary adds 1% zinc PCA for oil control and can pill under silicone-heavy products.

    $1.50 / fl oz against $10.94 / fl oz. Both list Glycolic acid.

    #1 in Facial Peels on Amazon

    Same active at nearly the same strength: glycolic acid, second only to water in both (8% against 7%) and buffered in both, with aloe on both lists.

    What it does worse: Paula's Choice is a leave-on gel with chamomile and green tea, while The Ordinary is a toner swiped on with a pad that adds rose water, ginseng and amino acids.

  4. PanOxyl Clarifying Exfoliant with 2% Salicylic Acid

    for Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant

    $11.97vs $37−68% per oz

    $3 / fl oz against $9.27 / fl oz. Both list 2% salicylic acid.

    #18 in Facial Toners & Astringents on Amazon

    The same 2% salicylic acid in a thin water-and-butylene-glycol liquid you leave on, doing the same work on clogged pores and blackheads.

    What it does worse: PanOxyl leaves out the green tea and adds glycerin and betaine to offset dryness, plus chamomile, which people allergic to ragweed can react to.

  5. CeraVe Resurfacing Retinol Serum

    for Paula's Choice CLINICAL 1% Retinol Treatment

    $16.49 $21.99vs $48.75 $65−66% per oz

    $16.26 / fl oz against $48.06 / fl oz. Both list Licorice.

    #13 in Facial Serums on Amazon

    Built along the same lines: retinol in a dimethicone serum with ceramides, sodium hyaluronate and a licorice derivative (dipotassium glycyrrhizate) to keep skin calm.

    What it does worse: The difference is strength: Paula's Choice states 1% retinol and adds peptides and a vitamin C ester, while CeraVe encapsulates an undisclosed dose for a gentler release and adds niacinamide, which suits a first retinol better than a stronger one.
