As Korean skincare has skyrocketed in the global market, most people have now started to focus on high-quality skincare products rather than investing in makeup products. Therefore, many luxury brands in the global market are currently offering various skincare products depending on trends and growing demand.
However, there is always a price gap, especially between popular Korean skincare products and American or other skincare products. Skincare products from Korea have reached a wide market, not only because of their efficacy but also because of their affordable price range.
On the other hand, many other brands are also offering the same high-quality products but with a higher price tag because of the brand's reputation and market value. So, for those who are searching for Korean skincare dupes for high-end products, the Sportskeeda team has found some with extensive research.

6) ISNtree Chestnut BHA 2% Clear Liquid instead of Paula’s Choice SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant
Everyone loves Paula’s Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant because of its effectiveness on acne-prone skin. But some people say it can be harsh for sensitive skin.
