Wegański PDRN: Nietestowany na zwierzętach sekret promiennej skóry

TikTok influencers and Korean skincare brands are obsessed with the industry's newest buzzword. We're talking about PDRN, or Polydeoxyribonucleotide, to get technical. This innovative skincare breakthrough has taken the beauty world by storm, which famously uses salmon DNA to deliver glowing skin by promoting regeneration and smoothing out those fine lines.

We're obsessed with innovation and emerging skincare technology, which is why we've formulated our new Vegan PDRN Jelly Face Cream, featured in the Dream Under The Moon Set as part of our latest Manifest collection.

Once reserved for the elite through injectables and top of the range cosmetic procedures, it's now found its way into our everyday routines in the form of serums and face masks.

More recently, Vegan PDRN has been developed for those who prefer ethical skincare, and as a cruelty free brand, we are a huge fan of this. We're moving past marine life and entering the era of plant biotechnology. Vegan PDRN is here to give you that same medical grade regeneration without any animal byproducts, which of course, we love.

🧬What is PDRN?

PDRN is a major emerging ingredient that is traditionally derived from salmon. Yep, you heard that correctly. It's a mixture of DNA fragments that are broken down into tiny pieces to help stimulate cell regeneration and repair.

Think of these molecules as messengers for your skin cells. Instead of just sitting on top of your skin like a basic moisturiser, these molecules communicate with your skin to kickstart the repair process from within.

Even if you don't have any damage, these molecules promote fibroblast activation. This causes your cells to produce the collagen and elastin that helps your skin stay firm and elastic, which keeps your skin looking young.

🌿 What is Vegan PDRN?

Vegan PDRN eliminates the need for fish for those who prefer sustainable and ethical ingredients in their routine. This version can come from a range of plant based alternatives including rice, ginseng, damascus rose, green tea, and seaweed. These are often created in lab environments through biotech fermentation to produce similar DNA fragmentation without ever using a salmon.

❓ How is Vegan PDRN Different and Why Should You Use It?

With the rise of vegan beauty and recent technology innovations, we no longer need to rely on salmon. The industry has managed to formulate a vegan alternative that can be just as effective.

Using Vegan PDRN addresses any ethical, environmental, or sustainability concerns. If there is a vegan and cruelty free alternative, best believe that we will be using it. Using fish DNA can also cause issues for those who suffer with seafood allergies, so if there is an alternative that everyone can use, it makes perfect sense to switch.

✨ Benefits of PDRN

PDRN has been researched for over 40 years and is shown to:

• Promote skin regeneration and healing while improving skin quality through cell turnover.
• Encourage collagen production to help reduce fine lines and improve firmness.
• Repair and protect the skin barrier while boosting moisture retention.
• Provide antioxidant protection against UVB rays and prevent damage from free radicals.
• Brighten the skin tone and reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation.
• Reduce redness and soothe the skin through anti inflammatory properties.
• Improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of sun spots.
• Reduce the size of pores by improving overall skin elasticity.

✔️ What Is Safe To Use PDRN With?

Because vegan PDRN is plant-based, it’s super stable and safe to use with most skincare ingredients. Ingredients that it pairs perfectly with are:

• Hyaluronic Acid: PDRN works well alongside HA to plump the skin.
• Vitamin C: Great dual-action targeting to brighten and repair skin.
• Niacinamide: Soothes the skin barrier while PDRN works beneath it.

❌ What You Should Avoid Using With PDRN

As Vegan PDRN is very stable, most skincare ingredients are safe to use alongside it, however if you’re using high percentage AHAs, BHAs or retinols, you should avoid using PDRN during the same routine. To avoid irritating your skin wait until the day after or use it the day before to be safe. 

⌚ When To Use PDRN In Your Skincare Routine

PDRN works great at healing skin, reducing redness and protecting the skin barrier so it makes a great addition to a daytime routine with SPF but can also be included in a night routine to support skin repair and regeneration overnight.

With any skincare routine you would usually apply the thinnest products first and layer them with the thicker products gradually.

🌅 Morning Routine:

1. Cleanse: Cleanse the skin with your favourite water-based face wash or cleanser to remove impurities and hydrate the skin.
2. Tone: As an optional step, apply a toner to restore the natural ph balance of your skin or to apply additional moisture to the skin.
3. Treat: Apply any PDRN serums or or ampoules to allow the skin to fully absorb it.
4. Target: Apply any serums that target specific skin concerns such as Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide or Vitamin C.
5. Moisturise: Lock in your serums and moisturise your skin with our Big Dreams PDRN Jelly Face Cream for additional PDRN benefits.
6. Sun Protection: Apply SPF to protect your skin from UV rays and premature aging.

🌇 Night Routine:

1. Double Cleanse: Remove any makeup with an oil-based cleanser and follow up with a water-based cleanser to fully remove all traces of makeup and impurities. 
2. Tone: Applying a soothing toner to reduce any redness and inflammation.
3. Treat: Apply your serum of choice, or choose either an exfoliating serum or a retinol, but do not mix these.
4. Moisturise: Apply our Big Dreams PDRN Jelly Face Cream to repair the skin and promote skin regeneration and healing. 

💄 Is PDRN Good For Skin Prep Before Makeup?

PDRN is one of the best skincare ingredients to use as a base for your makeup, especially if you want a hydrated, high-shine, glass-like skin. Ensuring your base is moisturised and hydrated allows makeup to apply evenly, smoothly and prevents makeup creasing or leaving you with dry patches.

✅ Benefits of PDRN as Makeup Skin Prep:

• Creates a Smooth Base: PDRN hydrates and moisturises the skin leaving skin looking smooth and plump.
• Prevents Dry Patches: Moisturising the skin means you avoid applying makeup to any dry areas that can cling onto makeup and make skin look worse.
• Reduces Creasing: By moisturising the skin and promoting collagen production, this plumps the skin and can reduce fine lines and prevent creasing in problem areas.
• Boosts Hydration & Glow: Providing instant hydration and creating glass-like skin can help give your skin a healthy glow which can give your makeup a radiant glow. 
• Evens Out Skin Tone: PDRN is known to reduce redness and irritation through skin barrier repair which can help your complexion look more even when applying makeup.
