What matches
Five of the same peptides in a water-based serum with hyaluronic acid and glycerin: acetyl hexapeptide-8 and pentapeptide-18 for expression lines, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 (Matrixyl 3000), and palmitoyl tripeptide-38.
The Ordinary Multi-Peptide + HA Serum at about $15.89. Five of the same peptides in a water-based serum with hyaluronic acid and glycerin: acetyl hexapeptide-8 and pentapeptide-18 for expression lines, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 (Matrixyl 3000), and palmitoyl tripeptide-38.
Liquid Peptides Multi-Peptide Serum costs about $68 for 30 ml, or $67.03 / fl oz. The Ordinary Multi-Peptide + HA Serum works out at $15.66 / fl oz, roughly 77% less per ounce.
Liquid Peptides Multi-Peptide Serum costs about $68 for 30 ml, about 4.3 times as much per ounce as The Ordinary Multi-Peptide + HA Serum. The trade-off with The Ordinary: Medik8 adds four more, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, tetrapeptide-21, a copper heptapeptide and heptapeptide-15 palmitate, with panthenol and carnosine, while The Ordinary adds the SYN-AKE dipeptide, a ferment lysate and amino acids. If that doesn't matter to you, the original isn't worth the extra $52.
