If you're a fan of Korean skincare, Dr.Althea is a name that needs no introduction. But here's the thing: prices for the same Dr.Althea product can vary wildly between stores in Iraq. This week (July 12–19, 2026), we've crunched the numbers from TajPrice to show you exactly which products have the biggest cross-store price spreads — so you know where to click and how much you can save.
Let's start with the champion of savings: 
Dr.Althea Natural Radiance Essence. This 30ml essence, packed with 85% Kakadu Plum extract and vitamin C, is a brightening powerhouse. The best price is just 9,500 IQD, but some stores sell it for up to 22,000 IQD — that's a staggering 131.6% price spread. If you're looking to restore radiance without breaking the bank, this is the one to compare.
Next up, the 
Dr.Althea Vitamin C Boosting Serum - 30ml offers a 77.9% spread. You can grab it for as low as 15,180 IQD, while other retailers charge 27,000 IQD. This lightweight, stabilized vitamin C serum is ideal for brightening and evening out skin tone. A quick comparison can save you nearly 12,000 IQD.
Another cleansing gem with a big difference is the 
Dr.Althea Pure Grinding Cleansing Balm (50ml). Priced at just 13,650 IQD at the best store, but reaching 24,000 IQD elsewhere (75.8% spread). This balm is gentle on sensitive skin yet removes makeup and sunscreen effortlessly. Perfect for double-cleansing fans.
For those into anti-aging, the 
Dr.Althea 0.1% Gentle Retinol Serum (0.1% Retinol, 30ml) has a 63.6% spread. Best price is 16,500 IQD, while the highest is 27,000 IQD. It's a low-irritation formula with bakuchiol that supports skin elasticity. Don't pay more than you need to.
Even products with smaller spreads still offer savings. The 
Dr. Althea Lash Boost Serum (9ml) has a 21.7% spread — best at 23,000 IQD vs 28,000 IQD. The 
Dr. Althea Gesichtscreme 345 Relief Cream Mist - 100ml (100ml) shows a 21.4% spread (24,300–29,500 IQD). The 
Dr.Althea Gentle Vitamin C Serum (30ml) has a modest 12.5% spread (24,000–27,000 IQD), and the 
Dr. Althea 345 Relief Cream Mist (100ml) is at 11.1% (27,000–30,000 IQD).
Rounding out the list, the 
Dr.Althea Pure Grinding Cleansing Balm - 50ml (50ml) has only an 8.7% spread (23,000–25,000 IQD), and the 
Dr.Althea Pore Refresh Grinding Cleansing Balm (50ml) is the tightest at 4.2% (24,000–25,000 IQD). Still, every dinar counts.
