What is PDRN, and why is everyone using it?

PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide) is a DNA-derived ingredient, usually from salmon, that became popular in Korean clinics before moving into everyday skincare.

What it does

In skincare, PDRN is used to support hydration, bounce and a smoother, more even-looking tone. It's gentle, so it suits most skin types, including sensitive skin.

How to use it

Apply a PDRN cream morning and evening after your serum. It layers well with hydrating products like face mists.
