| Verdict | The vitamin C serum for people who find L-ascorbic acid too aggressive. Ascorbyl glucoside + niacinamide + 78% citrus peel extract is a gentle, stable brightening stack that layers under anything. Not as potent as SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic, but dramatically more tolerable — you can actually wear it every morning without barrier damage. The fruit scent is assertive; the brightening delivery is real if modest. | 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. |
