Why NMN and PDRN Are Trending in Korean Anti-Aging Skincare
NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide) is a Vitamin B3 derivative associated with supporting cellular energy pathways, which can help skin look more resilient and revitalized in topical formulas. PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide) is a DNA-derived ingredient used in Korean skincare to deliver intensive soothing and a plumper, healthier look to stressed or dehydrated skin.
Combined in PRETTYSKIN’s formulas, these actives target multiple concerns — dullness, fine lines, loss of elasticity, and dryness — making the duo a smart choice for a firming skin-care routine that is both hydrating and comforting.
