All prices above come from ES Beauty Closet’s own product listings, checked on 29 September 2026. Anua’s listing showed a single price with no separate sale price. Prices and availability can change. Calculations exclude delivery charges and any additional checkout discounts or fees. The 10 ml figures are comparison units, not separate products offered for sale.

What the price-per-ml calculation tells you

Divide the listed bottle price by its volume: price per ml = bottle price ÷ bottle size.

At the current prices, AXIS-Y costs LKR 1,800 less upfront and provides 20 ml more serum. Its cost per ml is approximately 55.9% lower than Anua’s.

AXIS-Y also retains a unit-price advantage at its displayed regular price: LKR 128 per ml is approximately 43.5% lower than Anua’s current unit cost. Its value advantage therefore does not depend entirely on the sale.

These calculations compare the cost of the finished products. They do not measure clinical effectiveness or explain why the two products are priced differently.

02 / Formula comparison

Formula Comparison: What Is Inside Each Serum?

Both products are marketed for the appearance of uneven tone and dark spots, but their ingredient lists differ. Consider those differences alongside the bottle price.

ANUA · 30 ML

Anua Niacinamide 10% + TXA 4% Serum

Anua combines 10% niacinamide with 4% tranexamic acid. The ingredient list on ES Beauty Closet also includes arbutin, alpha-arbutin, hyaluronic acid ingredients, panthenol and Ceramide NP. Its listing describes a lightweight, watery texture and a fragrance-free formula.

This option is worth considering if you specifically want that combination in one serum. Paying more for a preferred formula can make sense, even when another product offers a lower cost per ml.

The concentration printed on the label is only one part of the comparison. It does not establish how quickly your skin will respond or guarantee that a formula will feel comfortable for you.

AXIS-Y · 50 ML

AXIS-Y Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum

AXIS-Y contains 5% niacinamide alongside squalane, sodium hyaluronate, rice bran extract, allantoin and other ingredients. Its reviewed ingredient list does not include tranexamic acid or arbutin.

The larger bottle and lower unit price may appeal when you are choosing a serum for regular use. Read our Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum guide for more information about the product.

Its ingredient list includes rosemary leaf oil. Check the full formula if you already know certain ingredients do not suit you. A lower niacinamide percentage alone is not a guarantee that a product will suit sensitive skin.

Does 10% niacinamide mean twice the results?

No. Anua has twice the stated niacinamide concentration, but that does not demonstrate twice the benefit. Overall formulation, amount used, frequency and individual skin response matter. This comparison does not establish that either product works faster or delivers better results than the other.

03 / Find your kind of value

Which Serum Offers Better Value for Your Routine?

01

Choose AXIS-Y when unit price is your main priority

At the checked prices, AXIS-Y is the stronger choice for product quantity per rupee. Its lower upfront cost can leave more of your budget available for moisturiser and sunscreen.

For an equal amount applied at an equal frequency, a 50 ml container provides about 1.67 times the volume of a 30 ml container. However, pump and dropper output vary, so bottle size alone cannot tell you exactly how many days either product will last.

02

Consider Anua when you want its particular formula

Anua may be your preferred purchase if you want niacinamide and tranexamic acid together in the same product. The decision is then about whether that formula fits your needs and budget, rather than whether it offers the lowest cost per ml.

Choose based on the complete ingredient list and your experience with skincare. A product that you can use comfortably and consistently is more practical than one you stop using after a few applications.

03

Keep the rest of your routine in the budget

You do not need to purchase both serums to build a routine. Introducing one new product at a time also makes it easier to identify how your skin responds.

If you are considering another brightening option, see our Centella Brightening Ampoule price guide. Compare it as an alternative purchase instead of assuming several serums are necessary.

04 / A simple routine

How to Introduce a Serum into Your Routine

Follow the instructions on your product’s packaging and begin gradually. Patch test before wider use, and stop using a product if irritation develops.

  1. Cleanse. Start with your usual facial cleanser.
  2. Apply one serum. Use the amount recommended on its label and gently pat it into the skin.
  3. Follow with moisturiser. Keep the rest of your routine familiar while introducing the new product.
  4. Use daytime sun protection. The Anua usage instructions on ES Beauty Closet specify SPF 30 or higher during the day.

If you are deciding on a moisturiser, our 345 Relief Cream vs Purito Bamboo Panthenol Cream comparison covers those options separately.

Include sunscreen in your shopping budget. Read the Beauty of Joseon sunscreen price guide or browse our sunscreen collection.

06 / The final details

Your serum comparison questions, answered.

Is Anua better value than AXIS-Y?

AXIS-Y has the lower price per ml at both its current sale price and the regular price displayed on ES Beauty Closet. Anua may still be your preferred purchase if you specifically want its formulation. The price calculation cannot predict which will give you a better skincare result.

Are these average market prices?

No. Every price in this comparison comes from ES Beauty Closet’s own product listings. The table separates the regular website price from the current sale price where one is displayed.

Can I use Anua niacinamide serum every day?

The product instructions allow morning and evening use and advise increasing usage gradually. Start cautiously, follow your label and adjust to your skin’s response. You do not have to begin with twice-daily use.

Should I use Anua and AXIS-Y together?

This comparison is intended to help you choose between them. Buying both is not necessary, and adding them simultaneously makes it harder to identify which product suits your skin. Start with one serum and keep the rest of the routine simple.

Which serum will last longer?

At the same amount per application and frequency, the larger bottle contains more applications’ worth of product. In practice, the amount dispensed, application area and frequency determine how quickly you finish it. A fixed lifespan cannot be promised from volume alone.

Where can I see the latest prices?

Check the Anua Niacinamide 10% + TXA 4% Serum listing and the AXIS-Y Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum listing directly before ordering.
