DNA (Sodium DNA) sits in the repair category, but the reason it works is specific. Provides nucleotide building blocks for skin repair; also acts as humectant.
The scientific name is Sodium Deoxyribonucleate. Provides nucleotide building blocks for skin repair; also acts as humectant. This mechanism is consistent across properly formulated products, which means the real variable is concentration and delivery system.
Typical working concentration is 0.1–2%. Best suited to all skin types, especially mature skin. Primary applications: dna repair support, hydration, anti-aging.
Works well with: Hyaluronic acid, peptides.
Derived from salmon or yeast; supports skin’s natural repair mechanisms.
