How the ratings break down

Amazon's own star distribution for this product, read on 2026-10-28. We show the one-star share too, because an average alone hides it.

5 star 78%
4 star 10%
3 star 4%
2 star 2%
1 star 6%

8% of these ratings are one or two stars. That is about typical for the Medicube range, where the median is 6%.

We cannot tell you what those reviewers said. Amazon.co.uk now requires an account to open the full review list, so the critical reviews are not readable from a public page. We would rather say that than guess.

What is salmon DNA PDRN?

PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide) is a soothing, skin-conditioning ingredient derived from salmon DNA, used to support the barrier and give a plumper, glowier look.

Ingredients, as listed by Medicube

Taken from Medicube's own product page on 2026-08-06. We have not verified it against a physical pack, and formulations change by market and batch. If an ingredient matters to you, check the pack itself. One more caveat for UK readers: Medicube has no separate UK site, so this list comes from its US product page. UK and EU ingredient lists can differ from the US one, so treat this as indicative until you have the pack in front of you.

What the ingredient order actually tells you

  • The overnight film is the format and the formula reflects it: water, glycerin, methylpropanediol, then an acrylates copolymer fourth, which is the gel-former that keeps this on your face while you sleep. Niacinamide sits fifth of 43.
  • The name leads with salmon DNA and pink collagen. On the list, collagen sits 26th and the salmon DNA 29th, both in the back half.
  • Fragrance sits 21st, ahead of both headline ingredients. In a product you leave on overnight, that ordering is worth knowing.
  • Twelve peptide entries run from 31st to 43rd, and two vitamin C derivatives sit at 28th and 32nd.
Our read

Read it as a fragranced overnight gel mask with a decent niacinamide dose, which is a perfectly good thing to be. What it is not is a PDRN or collagen treatment, because both sit in the back half of the list, behind the perfume. Buy the format and the niacinamide, not the name.

Who should skip this

  • You avoid fragrance in leave-on products. It sits 21st, ahead of the collagen and the salmon DNA.
  • You are paying for the PDRN. At 29th of 43 the position implies a small amount.
  • You want a fast-acting treatment. This is an overnight, comfort-first format.

A note on how we read that list. Ingredient lists run in descending order of concentration, but only for ingredients above 1%. Below that, the order is up to the manufacturer, so a low position tells you something is present at a low level, not exactly how much. We do not guess at percentages. FDA labeling guide.

How do you use the medicube Jelly Gel Mask with Salmon DNA?

Use it after toner, before moisturiser. Follow the directions on the pack, and always finish your morning routine with sunscreen.

Is the medicube Jelly Gel Mask with Salmon DNA worth it?

For the price, it is an easy recommendation: 4.5 out of 5 from a large number of shoppers, doing a clear job in the routine. Results vary from person to person, so manage expectations.
