| Verdict | 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. | Fermented soybean extract meets galactomyces filtrate meets peptides — the three pillars of K-beauty's fermented-ingredient philosophy, stacked in one milky serum. The fermentation process breaks soy isoflavones into smaller, more bioavailable molecules that improve elasticity and brightness, while the peptide complex (palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 + two oligopeptides) firms. The result is 80% of the results of high-end fermented essences like SK-II at roughly a fifth of the price. Mixsoon's minimalist formulation philosophy means there's nothing extraneous — every ingredient earns its place. |
