iUNIK Beta-Glucan Power Moisture Serum is a ten-ingredient hydrating serum built around beta-glucan, with glycerin, sodium PCA and adenosine. It gives dry, dehydrated or sensitive skin a quick drink of moisture, leaving it softer, plumper-looking and ready for the rest of your routine.

What it does

Beta-glucan is a humectant: it draws water into the upper layers of the skin and helps skin feel calmer and more comfortable. Glycerin and sodium PCA, part of the skin's own natural moisturising factor, add more hydration, and adenosine is included for the look of fine lines.

Why we chose it

With only ten ingredients and no actives to schedule, it is an easy hydration step beside a retinal or acid, for example Purito TXA 6% + Niacinamide 10% + Retinal Serum. There is no fragrance or essential oil in the listed ingredients.

Best for

  • Dry or dehydrated skin
  • Sensitive or easily irritated skin
  • Oily skin that still feels tight
  • Routines with retinoids or exfoliating acids
  • A simple hydration layer for a glass-skin glow

Not ideal if

  • You want a treatment for dark spots or breakouts: this is a hydration step only
  • You already have a hydrating serum you like, such as The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5: you do not need both
  • You want it to replace moisturiser: dry skin still needs a cream

Key ingredients

  • Beta-glucan: hydration and comfort
  • Glycerin: draws water into the skin
  • Sodium PCA: part of the skin's natural moisturising factor
  • Adenosine: the look of fine lines

Texture and finish

A clear, light gel serum that absorbs quickly and layers easily under moisturiser.

Where it goes in your routine

After cleansing and toner, before any treatment serum or moisturiser, morning and evening. Use the dropper to apply a few drops to the face and neck and pat in gently. Follow with moisturiser, and sunscreen in the morning.

What to expect

Skin feels more hydrated straight away. Softness and comfort build with daily use, especially with a good moisturiser on top.

Good to know

  • No fragrance or essential oils in the listed ingredients
  • No retinoid and no exfoliating acids
  • Only ten ingredients
  • Retailers list the order differently: check the bottle

What is it best for?

Hydration. It is a light serum for skin that feels dehydrated or tight, and an easy supporting step in routines with retinoids or exfoliating acids.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

It depends on your skin. There is no fragrance, essential oil, retinoid or exfoliating acid in the listed ingredients, which is why we include it for sensitive skin. No product suits every reactive skin, so patch test first.

Do I need this and a hyaluronic acid serum?

Probably not. Both do a similar hydration job. Start with one, and if your skin stays comfortably hydrated, your routine already has what it needs.

Can oily or blemish-prone skin use it?

Usually, yes. Oily skin can still be dehydrated, and the light gel texture adds no heavy layer. It is not designed to treat breakouts or unclog pores.

Can I use it with retinol, retinal or exfoliating acids?

Yes. There is no need to alternate them. If your skin is already burning or peeling, pause the active rather than trying to calm it with more layers.

Does it replace moisturiser?

Usually not. It adds water, but a moisturiser helps hold it in. Dry skin in particular should follow it with a cream.
