@JudyL it started out as fish sp3rm, That was a no go for many not wanting to put that on their face.  It's been popular in Korean skincare.

 

PDRN = Polydeoxyribonucleotide, a DNA fragment extracted from salmon sp3rm (yes, really) that's used in medical treatments for skin regeneration and wound healing. It's been used in Korea for years in dermatology clinics as an injectable "skin booster," especially for aging or post-procedure skin.


@poregirl  - Thank you!  First snail mucin, now salmon sp*rm, hmmmmm, interesting choices.

I am having issues with one of my contact lenses today and my first reading of this headline was PORN NOT from fish.

Well, it got my attention anyway.


@Bookplate  - Oh thank you for the best laugh that I have had in ages.  I'm still laughing.

Snail mucin is still a standout product as far as I am concerned. I haven't bought into PDRN yet but  COSRX 5 PDRN line  may just make me try their new line. They have a serum, toner & hydrogel mask with 5 types of pdrn & the toner has 8 types of HA. Less is more & all....🤷‍♀️

I see some brands on Amz that are called concentrates, you just add a drop or 2 to any other serum or cream, I think that could be more beneficial than using just the serum. PDRN seems to be the rage now in K Beauty


I'm gonna keep using mine anyway.

You should, use it all up, then decide if you want more.

"COSRX is in the grey area. This means it's unclear whether or not they're cruelty-free, since they haven't provided enough information. Some brands that fall under this category refuse to share their complete animal testing policy or answer questions about their cruelty-free status."  Cruelty-Free Kitty
