With fragrance, and without

SOME BY MI Daily Beta Panthenol Repair Mask vs SOME BY MI Real Cica Calming Care Mask

Same brand, same format, same stated job - calm irritation and support the barrier. One is fragrance-free and free of essential oils; the other carries eucalyptus and sage oils and a declared fragrance allergen. This is the closest like-for-like the catalogue holds on what fragrancing a soothing mask actually changes about its list.

The short answer

  • Fourteen entries are common to both, and they are the whole base of the formula: water, glycerin, butylene glycol, propanediol, 1,2-hexanediol, caprylyl glycol, ethylhexylglycerin, allantoin and dipotassium glycyrrhizate among them.

  • The Real Cica sheet is the one carrying essential oils and a declared allergen. If you are reactive, that single difference is the comparison.

  • Buying pattern differs as much as the formulas: €19.95 for thirty sheets against €1.55 for one, which is €0.66 a use against €1.55.

Prices are indicative, captured once from the source recorded on each product page, and they drift. Per-use figures marked ≈ are estimated from the pack size at a typical application rather than counted off a sheet count.

14 ingredients in common

Masks aimed at the same thing usually share most of their base - water, a humectant, a thickener, a preservative system - and differ further down, below the ≈1% line. Counted by encyclopaedia entry, not by printed row: several printed names can resolve to one substance.

What stands out in each list

Worked out from the ingredients by matching them against the encyclopaedia, not from the packaging claims - so a brand cannot earn a kinder summary with better marketing.
