How it works
The PDRN Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Cleansing Foam is a foam cleanser, used as your first step, morning and evening, on a face already wet with lukewarm water. The active it is built around is Sodium DNA, named twenty-third on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Allantoin, Niacinamide and Adenosine, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Sodium DNA stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the foam cleanser format rather than by the list alone. Anua sells this Sodium DNA foam cleanser in Korea, and this is that version.

Key actives
Sodium DNAactive
Sodium DNA is the salt of DNA, in Korean skincare almost always salmon derived, and it is the ingredient behind the PDRN category. It is used as a humectant and for the look of tired skin; the fragments themselves are what the name PDRN refers to. The name on the box points at it, and it is named twenty-third on this foam cleanser's own ingredient list.
Allantoinactive
Allantoin is a comfrey-derived compound used to condition skin and soften the outer layer so it feels smoother. It is one of the standard additions to a formula built for easily irritated skin. It is named thirty-second on this foam cleanser's list, alongside Sodium DNA.
Niacinamideactive
Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. It is named thirty-sixth on this foam cleanser's list, alongside Sodium DNA.
Adenosineactive
Adenosine is a nucleoside that Korea's own cosmetic authority recognises as a wrinkle-care functional ingredient, which is why it appears on so many Korean lists at a low level. It is used for the look of fine lines and is stable and well tolerated. The panel names it forty-third on this foam cleanser's list, beside Sodium DNA.
Glutathioneantioxidant
Glutathione is a small peptide the body uses as one of its main antioxidants. In skincare it is used as an antioxidant and for the look of dullness; it is unstable in water, so formulas that carry it are usually built around protecting it. It is named thirty-eighth on this foam cleanser's list, alongside Sodium DNA.

Where does this foam cleanser go in my routine?
As your first step, morning and evening, on a face already wet with lukewarm water. Nothing goes under it: this foam cleanser is the step everything else in the routine lands on top of. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Sodium DNA and not three changes at once.
What else is on the list besides Sodium DNA?
Allantoin, Niacinamide and Adenosine. The order they are printed in on this foam cleanser's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Sodium DNA sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Glutathione, Ceramide NP and Hydrolyzed Collagen.

How to use
- Use the PDRN Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Cleansing Foam as your first step, morning and evening, on a face already wet with lukewarm water.
- A short pump or a pea of product is enough. Work it into a lather in wet hands for about twenty seconds before it touches the face.
- Rinse with lukewarm water and go straight on to your toner while skin is still damp, because a humectant layer has more to hold on to on a damp face.
- Twice a day is the ceiling. Do not follow it with a second cleanse in the morning, when there is no sunscreen or makeup left on the face to remove.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this foam cleanser on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Sodium DNA on the list.
- Introduce this foam cleanser on its own for the first week, so anything your skin does is traceable to the Sodium DNA rather than to three changes at once.

Allantoin can tone down the dryness of the individual cells. It increases the water content of the skin, which means it helps to hydrate and moisturize.

Niacinamide helps reduce the appearance of pores in a few ways. By strengthening the skin barrier and improving elasticity, pores appear less noticeable and more even.
