Key differences

  • Klairs costs less per ml at the last checked prices (₹47 vs ₹50), although The Ordinary may suit you better on formula.
  • Listed strengths are 23% and 5%. A higher percentage is not automatically more effective and can be more irritating.
  • Bottle sizes differ (30 ml vs 35 ml), so compare price per ml rather than bottle price.
  • Customer ratings come from different sellers and review systems, so small rating gaps are not meaningful.
