The iUNIK Story
Quiet Cult Status
iUNIK launched in 2016 without the marketing budget of its bigger competitors, but built a loyal following through its obsession with ingredient transparency. Every formulation uses a hero active and a short supporting cast, with no fragrance, no essential oils, and no irritants.
The Beta Glucan Story
iUNIK was one of the first K-beauty brands to put beta-glucan — a powerful humectant often compared to hyaluronic acid — at the center of a product. The Beta Glucan Power Moisture Serum is now a sensitive-skin staple.
Today
iUNIK is a quiet favorite in the Reddit Asian Beauty community and increasingly on TikTok.

Beta Glucan Power Moisture Serum
iUNIK signature product and one of the best-kept secrets in sensitive-skin K-beauty. 70% beta-glucan — a powerhouse humectant and soothing agent — combined with a minimalist supporting cast. The result is a serum that hydrates like hyaluronic acid but also calms reactive skin the way centella does. Cult favorite for a reason.

Beta Glucan Daily Moisture Cream
Beta-glucan is hyaluronic acid's less-hyped, more interesting cousin: a polysaccharide that not only hydrates but signals immune cells in the skin to calm inflammation. iUNIK packs 70% beta-glucan into this cream at a budget K-beauty price — a moisturiser that reads as pure hydration but quietly does a second job as a barrier-supporter. One of the best budget creams for sensitive skin on the market.
