Gold Coast founder Sam Thompson introduces a new way to use Korean salmon DNA (PDRN) skincare, in time for a full lead up to Christmas parties and summer
GOLD COAST, Australia, 6 October 2026: Salmon DNA Australia, the official Australian and New Zealand distributor of CureNex and Vitaran, today launched The Salmon DNA Method, led by PDRN Stacking, a new way to use Korean salmon DNA (PDRN) skincare originated by Sam Thompson, founder of Salmon DNA Australia on the Gold Coast.
The Method has three parts. PDRN Stacking is the routine. Barrier Banking is the daily habit. Barrier Loading is the lead up to a big moment.
The official definition of PDRN Stacking:
"PDRN Stacking is the Korean method of building your whole routine around salmon DNA (PDRN), an ingredient around 95% similar to human DNA, so your skin recognises it. Your cleanser, serum, moisturiser, sunscreen, masks, eye patches, peel and skin booster all carry PDRN and work together as one system to keep your skin barrier strong. A strong barrier locks moisture in and keeps everyday stressors out, so skin looks clearer, smoother, plumper and glowing."
"People buy one PDRN serum and wonder why their routine still feels disconnected. It is not layering, it is teamwork," said Sam Thompson, founder of Salmon DNA Australia. "Layering piles up unrelated products that were never designed to work together. With PDRN Stacking, one ingredient your skin recognises runs through every step. One salmon DNA serum is a step. Salmon DNA in every step is a stack."
Barrier Banking is the daily habit: small, steady deposits into the skin barrier every morning and night. Aircon, long flights, late nights, sun, salt water and chlorine are the withdrawals. Make the deposits every day, so your skin can afford the withdrawals.
Barrier Loading borrows from the way athletes build up to race day. It is a six week lead up that loads the routine with salmon DNA, exosomes and hydration before a wedding, a long flight, a holiday or summer itself. Skin renews its surface layer roughly every four to six weeks, a little slower as we get older, so four weeks is the minimum and six is the plan.
With Christmas parties and summer holidays about ten weeks away, there is time for a full six week Barrier Load.
"Most of us start thinking about our skin the week before the big night, and by then all you can do is a sheet mask and hope," said Sam Thompson. "Start your Barrier Load now and your skin has the whole run up. The goal is skin you do not feel you have to fix before you leave the house."
The easiest way to start PDRN Stacking is the CureNex Salmon DNA 4 Step Set (cleanser, Daily Serum, cream and SPF50+), $229 or four payments of $57.25 with Afterpay. Salmon DNA Australia holds its Korean salmon DNA (PDRN) skincare in stock on the Gold Coast for fast Australian dispatch, with free shipping over $150 and 4.9 stars from 229 reviews. PDRN Stacking was originated by Sam Thompson in 2026.
