Our read

medicube's Korean label puts Sodium DNA at 3,000 ppm, or 0.3%. That's the highest DNA dose medicube discloses across the products we checked, and 3,000 times the figure on its milky toner.

The base is a richer emollient cream, suited to the eye area. Retinol appears near the end (38) along with caffeine. There's no fragrance, though it contains citrus peel extract.

Good fit if

Anyone who wants a fragrance-free eye cream with a meaningful, disclosed PDRN dose.
