How it works
This PDRN Grinding Cleansing Balm is a solid-to-oil balm that melts on contact with warm, dry hands, formulated around sodium DNA (PDRN), panthenol and ceramide NP. It rinses through the skin and is meant to be massaged over dry skin to lift makeup and sunscreen before a water-based cleanser follows. The remaining formula carries supporting humectants and film-forming agents typical of a VT cleanser of this kind, listed in full on the ingredient panel itself. Introduce this product on its own for the first several uses before layering it with other actives.
Key benefits
- An oil-ester and canola oil base dissolves makeup and sunscreen fully
- Ceramide NP and panthenol offset the stripped post-cleanse feel
- Sodium DNA and ginseng root extract carry the PDRN line into step one
- Argan, jojoba, avocado and squalane finish skin soft, not squeaky

Ceramide NP
barrier lipid rarely found in a cleanser

VT Cosmetics PDRN Grinding Cleansing Balm
Is the PDRN Grinding Cleansing Balm on this page the Korean-market VT Cosmetics formula?
Yes. It is the release VT Cosmetics sells inside Korea. A product carrying the same name in a US-facing listing can be a different export version with a different ingredient list or size, and we only stock the Korean release. The box and unit that ship to you keep their Korean-language packaging and Korean barcode intact.
What does the PDRN Grinding Cleansing Balm actually contain?
Its own ingredient list names sodium DNA (PDRN), panthenol, ceramide NP and gluconolactone, and we only describe what that list states rather than adding anything a similar VT product happens to carry. PDRN Grinding Cleansing Balm is a solid-to-oil balm that melts on contact with warm, dry hands, and it is meant to be massaged over dry skin to lift makeup and sunscreen before a water-based cleanser follows.
How do I check that this PDRN Grinding Cleansing Balm unit is genuine?
VT Cosmetics has not published a scan-based verification route; match the batch code on the box against the code on the bottle or tube itself. Your unit ships with its Korean-market barcode and its batch code intact, because the production date stays yours to read rather than covered by a repack label. VT Cosmetics is one of the brands on this store with no scan-based verification of its own on record, so the batch-code cross-check is the honest answer here rather than a claim VT has not made.
How does buying the PDRN Grinding Cleansing Balm here compare with a US retailer?
This is the unit built for the Korean market, with the Korean barcode and batch code intact on the box rather than swapped for a US-facing repack.
How is the PDRN Grinding Cleansing Balm meant to be used?
It is massaged over dry skin to lift makeup and sunscreen before a water-based cleanser follows, and its own texture is a solid-to-oil balm that melts on contact with warm, dry hands. Introduce it on its own for the first several uses so any reaction traces back to this product rather than to whatever else is in a routine that week, then fold it into the rest of a routine once it has been tolerated well.

How to use
- Use it as the first cleanse in the evening, on a dry face and with dry hands.
- Dial out a marble sized amount and massage it over dry skin until makeup lifts.
- Add water for about thirty seconds until it turns milky, then rinse lukewarm.
- Do not skip a second cleanse on a day you wore heavy sunscreen.
Worth knowing
- Salicylic Acid pairs less well layered directly under a second exfoliating acid on the same night, so space them out if a routine runs both.

Ceramides are part fatty acid and part amino acid and are able to be the grout that keeps the building blocks of the skin together and functioning as a barrier between the inside and outside world.
