A head-to-head comparison of two popular K-beauty brands. Which one is right for your skin?
Our Pick
The History of Whoo
Higher editor rating (8.8 vs 8.7)
EasyDew
EasyDew is built on real medical chemistry — the brand was founded by Daewoong Pharmaceutical and uses pharmaceutical-grade EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor), an ingredient most OTC skincare can't legally formulate with at this concentration. Olive Young named them their #1 'slow aging' brand in 2025, and Marie Claire flagged them as one of the K-beauty brands to watch.
Pros
- ✓ Pharmaceutical-grade EGF
- ✓ Olive Young #1 slow aging 2025
- ✓ Backed by real lab science
Cons
- ✗ Premium pricing
- ✗ Clinical-leaning aesthetic
The History of Whoo
Price tags that make you wince and packaging that belongs in a palace museum — but the Bichup Self-Generating Anti-Aging Essence is legitimately good, and the Gongjinhyang:Seol brightening line has receipts. You're paying for the ritual as much as the results, which is either the point or the problem, depending on who you are.
Pros
- ✓ Heritage formulas with modern polish
- ✓ Exceptional packaging
- ✓ Strong mature-skin results
Cons
- ✗ Luxury pricing
- ✗ Heavy herbal fragrance
- ✗ Overkill for anyone under 35
