Beauty shoppers hunting for a shortcut to glowing, hydrated skin are raving about serum-saturated pads that promise an instant 'glass skin' glow. The double-sided Anua PDRN 100 Hyaluronic Acid Glow Pads are available at Look Fantastic for £22 for a pot of 60, with an additional 20% off when using the code EXTRA.
One side of each pad features a nourishing gel peptide mask, while the other is a smoothing fabric designed to wipe away excess product and lock in moisture. The Korean brand's Glow Pads are infused with PDRN, a compound derived from salmon DNA that is said to boost skin radiance. A blend of hyaluronic acid and peptides helps banish dryness and plump fine lines for a smooth, supple complexion.
Versatile Use and Customer Praise
The pads are versatile: they can be used as a five-minute targeted mask treatment on specific areas, or swept across the entire face for an all-over glow. Each tub includes a small pair of plastic tweezers to lift the pads hygienically. One happy customer said: "I love these pads. So soft on my skin and makes my face feel fresh and cleansed." Another added: "Pads are absolutely soaked which is fantastic. Have noticed such a difference in my skin in terms of glow and people have also commented on this."
Alternatives in the PDRN Market
For those seeking alternatives, medicube's Salmon DNA PDRN Pink Collagen Jelly Pads cost £15.30 for a pot of 70 on Amazon. While the pack contains more pads, it weighs less, suggesting each pad contains less serum, according to the Liverpool Echo. Alternatively, Mediheal's PDRN Lifting Pads are reduced to £19.80 for 100 at Boots as part of their Korean beauty promotion. These claim to offer a 'quick skin fix' that helps tighten pores and boost skin elasticity for visible firming and lifting.
Part of a Wider Range
The Anua Glow Pads are part of the brand's wider PDRN Hyaluronic Acid range. Other products include a Hydrating Capsule Mist (£22) for an instant burst of hydration on the go, which can even be worn over makeup, and the Booster Toner (£20) for an extra hydration hit.
High Ratings and Repeat Purchases
The Anua Glow Pads receive an impressive average of 4.7 stars from Look Fantastic customers. One reviewer said: "These are great first thing in the morning as an extra hydration boost during skin care. I am really liking these, they're so cooling and help depuff my face." While one person mentioned 'pilling' when layered with other products, another was so impressed that they had worked their way through three pots: "So hydrating, makes your skin feel amazing afterwards. Will often use at night instead of a mask or to prep my skin before make up."
