The Academy and Grammy Award winning singer who co-wrote the award-winning song "Golden" reveals how she incorporates REJURAN COSMETICS into her skincare routine ahead of her wedding

SEOUL, South Korea, Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- REJURAN COSMETICS, the premium skincare brand from PharmaResearch, the biopharmaceutical company behind the globally recognized REJURAN skin booster, has partnered with South Korean and American singer and songwriter EJAE to share her pre-wedding skincare routine.

EJAE is an award-winning singer, songwriter and record producer who achieved her international breakthrough in 2025 through Netflix's animated film KPop Demon Hunters, produced by Sony Pictures Animation. She provided the singing voice for Rumi and co-wrote and performed "Golden," the film's breakout hit. The song reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, bringing EJAE global recognition as both a songwriter and vocalist.

Titled "Bridal Diary," the Instagram content offers a glimpse into EJAE's skincare routine as she balances a busy international schedule with wedding preparations.

The routine features three REJURAN COSMETICS products: Turnover Ampoule, Nutritive Cream and Dual Effect Ampoule. In the morning, EJAE uses Turnover Ampoule as part of her skin-prep routine, followed by Nutritive Cream for hydration. In the evening, she incorporates Dual Effect Ampoule to help keep her skin looking smooth, hydrated, and radiant for the following day.

The content also introduces c-PDRN™, REJURAN COSMETICS' proprietary cosmetic ingredient derived from PharmaResearch's PDRN technology. Through a routine centered on hydration and consistent skincare, EJAE shares how she maintains healthy-looking skin and prepares her complexion for makeup.

The partnership highlights how REJURAN COSMETICS products can be incorporated into both everyday skincare and routines leading up to special occasions. The brand plans to continue releasing content featuring EJAE through the end of the year as it expands its engagement with consumers in the United States and other global markets.

"Through this collaboration, we wanted to show how EJAE naturally incorporates REJURAN COSMETICS into her skincare routine as she prepares for a major milestone in her life—her wedding day," said a REJURAN COSMETICS spokesperson. "By showing how the products fit naturally into her routine, we hope to introduce more consumers to PDRN skincare while continuing to build awareness of REJURAN COSMETICS in the U.S. and other key global markets."
