Are the First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Hyaluronic Acid Serum and Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Hyaluronic Serum dupes for each other?
They share 66% active-ingredient overlap based on published INCI lists, so one can stand in for the other on the actives that matter — chiefly Hyaluronic Acid. A dupe matches the hero actives, not the full sensory experience, so expect differences in texture, fragrance and exact concentrations.
