The most fashionable molecule in K-beauty right now is PDRN — polydeoxyribonucleotide, a salmon-derived (or here, rice-derived plant-based version) ingredient that aesthetic clinics use as an injectable for skin regeneration. EQQUALBERRY’s Purple PDRN Pore Minimizing Serum brings the same logic to a topical: 30,000 ppm of a Purple PDRN complex that combines rice-PDRN, Centella-asiatica-sourced exosomes, and purple rice extract to push the skin’s barrier and surface texture in the right direction.
The serum doesn’t stop at PDRN. It stacks LHA (capryloyl salicylic acid — a gentler, deeper-penetrating BHA), PHA (gluconolactone), niacinamide, copper tripeptide-1, hydrolyzed collagen and ceramides NP/AP/EOP. So you get exfoliation, sebum control, peptide repair, and barrier replenishment from one bottle — exactly the stack the Gulf consumer who fights congestion and texture under heat and humidity actually needs.
Texture is a fast-absorbing watery emulsion. Build it in slowly: 3–4 nights a week for the first two weeks, then add to mornings. Daily SPF is mandatory — LHA and PHA increase sun sensitivity. Pair with the EQQUALBERRY Blue Hyaltoin Serum the nights you’re not using this one, so the routine stays balanced.
Expect smoother surface texture in 2 weeks, visibly tighter pores in 6 weeks, and a noticeably more even, refined skin over 8–12 weeks. Combination, oily, and congestion-prone skin respond best.

Key Ingredients
- 3% Purple PDRN complex — skin regeneration, barrier signalling, texture refinement
- LHA (Capryloyl Salicylic Acid) — gentler, deeper-acting BHA that unclogs pores
- PHA (Gluconolactone) — surface exfoliation + humectant in one
- Niacinamide — tightens pores, regulates sebum
- Copper Tripeptide-1 — repair signalling, collagen support
How to Use
- Cleanse and tone (PM preferred for the first 2 weeks).
- Apply 2–3 drops to face and neck.
- Press in. Allow to absorb for 1 minute.
- Follow with moisturiser.
- Build to twice daily after 2 weeks. AM use requires SPF.
FAQ
Q: Can I use it with retinol?
Skip same-night layering. Alternate nights: retinol Monday/Wednesday/Friday, Purple PDRN Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday. Sunday off.
Q: Is it safe during pregnancy?
LHA is structurally related to salicylic acid. Skip during pregnancy and breastfeeding — pick our Blue Hyaltoin Serum instead.
Q: When will I see smaller pores?
Texture shifts in 2 weeks. Visible pore refinement at 6 weeks. The trick is consistency + SPF.
Q: I have sensitive skin — is this for me?
Start once a week, build slowly. PHA is the gentler exfoliant of the two — skin usually tolerates it well, but listen to your barrier.
Q: Can I layer it under sunscreen?
Yes, in the AM. But never skip the SPF on a PHA/LHA routine.
Q: How is this different from regular salicylic acid serums?
LHA penetrates deeper into the pore than BHA but stays gentler on the surface. Combined with PHA and PDRN, you get exfoliation + repair, not just stripping.
