Featured Ingredient
c-PDRN®
c-PDRN® is the new era of skin transformation ingredients. It is version of PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide), a form of marine-based DNA, that has shown to REignite the REpair process in the skin. c-PDRN® is a marine growth factor (MGF) whose molecular size allows for greater effectiveness due to its penetrability.
PDRN has been used in to medical community, especially in dermatology, as an injectable for years for tissue REgeneration to accelerate the natural wound healing process in the body. With the transformation to c-PDRN®, our scientists created this patented wonder to help REwrite the code of skin for a new story.
Powerhouse Ingredients
The best ingredients are born in nature and perfected by science. We borrowed the best resources offered by the earth and the sea and transformed them with groundbreaking medical science to deliver the results you want.
Allantoin
Allantoin works to soften the texture and discoloration that can sometimes follow skin injuries. This gentle, non-irritating, skin-renewing ingredient helps moisturize and hydrate skin to reduce the appearance of scars. One of Allantoin’s superpowers is assisting absorption of other beneficial skincare ingredients; when it comes to reducing the appearance of scars, this quality makes it c-PDRN®’s ideal companion. When used together, these 2 ingredients increase cell turnover and help smooth indentations and uneven texture on skin, improving the rough appearance that often accompanies healed skin injuries.

Did you know?
Allantoin might be trendy in skincare, but scientists have known about it since the early 1800s and it actually occurs naturally in the bodies of humans and animals, in addition to plants such as beets, comfrey, chamomile, wheat sprouts, and tobacco seed.
Allium Cepa (Onion) Bulb Extract
This antioxidant-rich natural ingredient reduces the appearance of scars. Allium Cepa helps seal in moisture to give skin an essential layer of protection, and it’s also known to aid in cellular renewal and collagen production which in turn helps improve the appearance of old and new scars caused by acne, burns, injury, and surgery. As a bonus, it leaves skin with a healthy, luminous glow. Skin-renewing results are further improved when Allium Cepa collaborates with c-PDRN®. By helping increase cellular turnover and encouraging natural collagen production, c-PDRN® works to minimize the size and depth of scars for smoother-looking skin overall.

Did you know?
Onions originated in the area now known as Iran; they are part of the lily family which also includes garlic, leeks, chives, scallions, and shallots.
Bisabolol
Research indicates that bisabolol helps inhibit melanin synthesis which means it may reduce the appearance of dark spots on skin, thereby promoting a more even complexion. It’s also known to masterfully restore suppleness to skin which imparts a more luminous appearance. One downside of Bisabolol in skincare products is the potential for irritation that can sometimes accompany topical use, but combining this powerful spot-reducing ingredient with anti-inflammatory c-PDRN® helps prevent unpleasant side effects so you can enjoy a brighter skin tone, worry free.
FEATURED IN: Intensive Pigment Corrector
Did you know?
Chamomile-derived Bisabolol has been used in traditional medicine practices as an antibacterial, anti-irritant, anti-fungal, and stimulator of tissue regeneration.
Hyaluronic Acid
This powerful hydration ingredient occurs naturally in your skin but decreases with age, so adding it to your skincare routine is essential. Hyaluronic Acid is a humectant that attracts water and binds it to skin cells, fortifying the skin’s natural barrier for deep, long-lasting, intense hydration and a dewy glow. Boosting levels of Hyaluronic Acid in your skin helps reduce the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles, adds luminosity, and helps skin look younger and healthier overall. Pairing Hyaluronic Acid with c-PDRN® doubles-down on your hydration potential by strengthening your skin’s barrier strength to lock in moisture, ensuring a smoother, firmer, more youthful appearance.
FEATURED IN: Anti-Aging Retinol + c-PDRN Serum, Scar Gel, Turnover Ampoule, Nutritive Cream
Did you know?
Hyaluronic Acid holds up to 1,000 times its molecular weight in water which, when used in your skincare products, allows it to help maintain hydration levels, enhance your protective lipid barrier, increase skin resilience, visibly firm skin tone, smooth skin texture, and make lines & wrinkles less visible.
Lactic Acid
Lactic Acid brightens, smooths, and evens skin while helping it look firmer and reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and dark spots.This popular Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) exfoliates by loosening the bonds between dead skin cells, revealing a more radiant complexion. c-PDRN®’s excellent irritation-soothing properties reduce signs of inflammation and sensitivity, common side effects of Lactic Acid exfoliation, making these 2 spot-reducing, skin-evening superstars a perfect pair.
FEATURED IN: Intensive Pigment Corrector
Did you know?
For years, people believed that Lactic Acid produced naturally by muscles was responsible for post-workout muscle soreness, but this is no longer accepted as true. Now, scientists understand that Lactic Acid really functions as a “turbo boost” for muscles when you need a burst of speed or strength.
Niacinamide
A form of Vitamin B3, Niacinamide may be one of the most cross-functional skincare ingredients available. This versatile vitamin helps visibly minimize pores, improve laxity, improve uneven skin tone, soften fine lines & wrinkles, diminish dullness, and improve skin’s barrier strength which helps reduce the impact of environmental damage. It also “plays well” with other beneficial ingredients in your skincare products, especially c-PDRN®. c-PDRN® enhances the benefits you experience when using Niacinamide. You’ll see a faster increase in skin firmness, improved reduction of lines & wrinkles, and you’ll maximize the benefits of a skin barrier strengthened by both ingredients working together.
FEATURED IN: Intensive Pigment Corrector, Scar Gel
Did you know?
Niacinamide is water-soluble which means your body can’t store it. Therefore, it’s important to include it in your diet and skincare routines.
Retinol
This powerful form of Vitamin A seems to do it all; it helps boost cellular turnover, stimulate collagen production, improve skin tone and texture, improve the look of hyperpigmentation, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, boost elasticity, and helps skin look younger, healthier, smoother, and more hydrated overall. It’s the must-have secret weapon in your skincare arsenal. Unfortunately, Retinol can sometimes cause skin irritation, but this minor inconvenience is easily avoided when it’s paired with soothing and protective c-PDRN®. This powerhouse combination gives you all the good things Retinol offers without the bothersome side effects, so there’s no downtime and no downside.
FEATURED IN: Anti-Aging Retinol + c-PDRN Serum
Did you know?
As crazy as it sounds, retinol thins and thickens your skin at the same time. It thins the outermost layer, sloughing off old, dry cells and exposing newer, more radiant skin, and it thickens deeper layers by stimulating production of collagen and elastin for enhanced strength and density.
Salicylic Acid
The best-known Beta-Hydroxy Acid (BHA) exfoliant on the market is Salicylic Acid. This potent and effective ingredient sloughs off dead skin and helps fade unwanted skin discoloration. It works by dissolving the “glue” that causes skin cells to stick together, making them easier to shed and allowing fresher, newer cells to reach the skin’s surface. As with any acid used in skincare, Salicylic does have the potential to irritate skin. Because of this, many dermatologists recommend using it only every other day which can slow results. Using a soothing, anti-inflammatory ingredient like c-PDRN® alongside Salicylic Acid allows more frequent use and potentially faster results from this highly-effective ingredient.

Did you know?
Salicylic Acid isn't just for facial skincare; at low levels, it can help improve conditions such as dandruff and can even be used as a food preservative.
Vitamin C
Antioxidant Vitamin C brightens skin and helps fend off visible signs of aging by reducing the appearance of dark spots, visibly evening skin tone, reducing the appearance of melasma, and improving the look of dull, lifeless skin. Applied topically, this collaborative vitamin may even help protect the skin from UV exposure by neutralizing free radicals, which is why it’s an essential part of every skincare routine. Using products that contain both Vitamin C and c-PDRN® helps speed skin cell turnover so hyperpigmentation is potentially reduced more quickly, reducing wait time on the even-looking skin tone you want.
