High-Strength Vegan PDRN Serum Takes the Beauty World by Storm
A high-strength vegan PDRN serum is making waves in the beauty industry thanks to its impressive, potent formula at an affordable price. Powered by a massive 20,000 PPM of vegan PDRN, the INKEY Labs PDRN Serum could be your shortcut to smooth, hydrated, glass-like skin instantly. I decided to put it to the test.
What Makes the INKEY Labs PDRN Serum Special?
Formulated with a whopping 20,000 PPM of vegan PDRN—a super potent amount for incredible efficacy—the low molecular weight formula is designed for optimal penetration to deliver clinically proven smoother, bouncier skin.

There is no doubt that PDRN is a major beauty buzzword right now, and vegan formulations are frequently proving themselves just as effective as their salmon-derived counterparts, delivering incredible glass skin and unrivalled hydration. This vegan formulation is certainly no exception.
INKEY Lab, the INKEY List’s insider-only, innovation-led skincare platform, has been consistently producing impressive, fast-tracked formulations tested by their community before large-scale production. The brand’s new PDRN serum is another of these fresh formulas. Despite its faster lead time, I already know that I will love this serum just as much as the INKEY List’s best-selling Exosome Serum.
Designed with skin cell renewal and a glass glow at its heart, the serum works to support your skin’s collagen and hyaluronic acid levels for smooth, bouncier skin from the first use.

Clinical Performance and Community Feedback
Outperforming both animal and vegan alternatives in clinical studies, INKEY Lab’s INJIN PDRN serum delivers all the power of PDRN with low irritation for easy daily use. The INKEY community rates it 4.8 stars on the brand’s website, with users praising its smoothing and hydrating properties. One impressed user raved, “I’ve been using this serum for a few weeks now and the difference in my skin is insane. It’s clearer, smoother, and overall healthier looking. Loved it so much I’ve bought my next bottle so I don’t run out!” Another added, “I cannot wait for this to restock, or better yet—be released as a regular product! I’ve used it almost every night since I got it in December and it’s made such a positive difference in my skin.” A third wrote, “This has made the biggest difference by far of any skincare product I’ve tried! The texture, luminosity, colour, and hydration have all drastically improved.”
My Personal Experience
As someone with dry, sensitive, and fussy skin, I absolutely love PDRN. Vegan or otherwise, every PDRN product I have tried has worked well with my skin, so I had no reservations trying this one from INKEY Labs (especially since INKEY can do no wrong in my eyes). Thankfully, it did not disappoint. This serum is creamy and rich yet sinks instantly into the skin, leaving a silky plumpness and smoothness that is difficult to describe—almost like a smoothing filter. Comfortable and hydrating, it feels like a calming exhale for my skin, acting as the perfect skincare base, especially beneath my retinoids. While I have not used it long enough to comment on long-term benefits, the instant glow it provides is remarkable—a glass skin effect from just one pump. At only £18, this serum is a total steal and worth its weight in gold, especially for those craving deep, calming hydration. I echo the reviewers: INKEY must make this a permanent product.
