Dr. JSK PDRN Capsule Needle Shot Essence 30ml

2nd-generation encapsulated spicule essence that penetrates deep into pores

If traditional spicule products felt too harsh, this one's for you. Dr.JSK's PDRN Capsule Needle Shot Essence encapsulates uniformly sized micro-spicules to minimize irritation while maximizing active ingredient absorption. As the capsules burst on contact with skin, spicules and hyalcollagen penetrate through the stratum corneum and reach deep into pores. Squalane forms a moisture-locking barrier that seals actives inside, keeping skin hydrated for longer.

Dual care with hyalcollagen and PDRN

Hyalcollagen—a fusion of hyaluronic acid for hydration and collagen for firmness—is encapsulated in nano-sized capsules to deliver moisture and elasticity in one step. Salmon-derived PDRN is added to revitalize fatigued skin. Known for its structural similarity to human DNA, PDRN supports the skin's natural recovery process, helping it look healthier and more resilient. Formulated with EWG Green-grade ingredients only, with no flagged components for a gentle approach.

For sagging pores and dull complexion

This essence is ideal if you're concerned about visible pores and uneven texture. Spicules help clear out pore debris and refine skin texture for a smoother finish. Safe for daily use on normal skin. If you have sensitive skin, start with 2–3 times a week and gradually increase frequency.

Use at the essence step in your K-beauty routine

Apply after toner has prepped your skin, and before your cream. The spicule ingredient gently stimulates the skin surface and helps boost absorption of active ingredients, so the products you layer on top will work even better. If you're using multiple serums or ampoules, apply this one first.

Safe for morning and evening use, but start twice weekly if you have sensitive skin

If your skin is generally resilient, daily use morning and evening is fine. However, if your skin is sensitive or you're new to spicule products, start with 2–3 times per week and monitor how your skin responds. Once your skin has adjusted, you can gradually increase frequency.

Dispense a moderate amount and press gently into skin

Pump the dropper 1–2 times into your palm, then spread evenly across your entire face. Rather than rubbing, press the product in gently with your palms to allow the spicule capsules to naturally integrate into your skin. For areas where pores are a concern, feel free to apply a second layer.

Recommended combinations by skin concern

• Dry skin lacking firmness: Layer a deeply hydrating toner, this essence, then a collagen cream to deliver both moisture and bounce
• Pores and uneven texture: Calm skin with a mildly acidic toner, follow with this essence, and finish with a lightweight hydrating cream
• Dull complexion: With consistent use and a focus on hydration, your skin will look noticeably clearer and more luminous
