Arencia Pore Melt Phyto PDRN Cleansing Balm: A PDRN Cleansing Balm That Melts Away Makeup

If sunscreen and makeup never quite come off with your regular face wash, this PDRN cleansing balm is the first step you are missing. The sherbet-like balm melts into an oil as you massage it over dry skin, lifting makeup, sunscreen and the oily buildup that collects in pores through the day. Add a little water and it turns milky, then rinses away clean.

Shea butter and corn germ oil give the balm its soft, cushiony slip, with mugwort and green tea leaf waters in the mix. Arencia calls it phyto PDRN; on the ingredient list it appears as sodium DNA. Smaller amounts of centella, ceramide NP, panthenol, three forms of hyaluronic acid and the fruit enzymes papain and bromelain round it out, and there is no added fragrance. Follow with a water-based cleanser to finish your double cleanse.

Who Is It For?

Frequently Asked Questions

+
Is this a first or second cleanse?
It is a first cleanse. Use it to remove makeup and sunscreen, then follow with a water-based cleanser.
What is phyto PDRN?
Phyto PDRN is what Arencia calls the PDRN in this balm. On the ingredient list it appears as sodium DNA, in a small amount, so think of this mainly as a makeup-melting first cleanse.
Does it leave a greasy film?
It should not. Once you add water it turns milky and rinses off, and a second cleanse takes care of anything left behind.
Does it sting the eyes?
Massage gently and avoid getting it directly in the eyes. Rinse if it happens.
Is it good for dry skin?
Yes. Shea butter and corn germ oil help it cleanse without a tight after-feel.
