Our verdict

Both are treatment-step serums with salmon DNA PDRN, and both are well rated, 4.6/5 from 3,900 reviews for the Pink Peptide Serum against 4.5/5 from 2,200 for the Exosome Shot. The real difference is intensity. The Exosome Shot uses spicules and is flagged as containing actives that can irritate reactive skin, so it needs a patch test and a cautious start. The Pink Peptide Serum is listed as gentle enough for daily use and covers dry, combination and normal skin, where the Exosome Shot is aimed at oily, combination and normal only, targeting pores, texture and the appearance of ageing. Price runs against that: the Exosome Shot is under £15 while the peptide serum sits in the £15 to £40 tier. So the cheaper option is the more demanding one. If your skin is dry or easily upset, pay more and take the peptide serum.
