A lightweight, milky essence with a smooth, lotion-like consistency. It spreads easily, absorbs comfortably and leaves the skin feeling hydrated and soft with a natural dewy finish.

4. Product Overview

iUNIK Beta-Glucan Lacto Barrier Milk Essence combines the hydrating properties of a milk essence with skin-conditioning ingredients commonly found in serums. The formula features 68% Lactobacillus Ferment Lysate and a seven-peptide complex to support a healthy-looking, resilient complexion.

Beta-glucan and panthenol help maintain hydration and skin comfort, while niacinamide supports a more even-looking complexion. Bakuchiol helps improve the appearance of fine lines and texture, and glyceryl glucoside helps maintain moisture.

The lightweight milky texture makes it suitable for daily use, particularly for skin experiencing dehydration, dullness or a weakened-feeling moisture barrier. It can be used in place of a separate toner and hydrating serum, depending on your routine.

5. How to Use

1. Cleanse your face thoroughly.
2. Dispense a moderate amount of essence onto your palms.
3. Apply evenly over your face and neck, avoiding the eyes.
4. Gently pat until absorbed.
5. Follow with moisturizer if needed.
6. During the daytime, finish with broad-spectrum sunscreen.

• Avoid applying to broken or severely irritated skin.

11. FAQ

Q1. What does iUNIK Beta-Glucan Lacto Barrier Milk Essence do?

It hydrates the skin, supports moisture-barrier comfort and helps improve the appearance of firmness, texture and radiance.

Q2. Can this essence replace toner and serum?

Yes. Its milky, hydrating formula is designed to combine the functions of a toner and serum in one step. You can still use additional products according to your skin’s needs.

Q3. Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

It may suit some sensitive skin types, but no product is universally irritation-free. Patch test before regular use.

Q4. Can I use it every day?

Yes. It can generally be used daily in the morning and evening if your skin tolerates it.

Q5. Can I use it with vitamin C or niacinamide serum?

Generally, yes. The essence already contains niacinamide, so consider your overall routine and introduce additional active products gradually if your skin is sensitive.

Q6. Does it help with fine lines?

Bakuchiol and peptides may help improve the appearance of fine lines and uneven texture. Results vary, and the essence will not permanently remove wrinkles.

Q7. Do I need a moisturizer after applying it?

Dry skin may benefit from a moisturizer to seal in hydration. Oily skin may find the essence sufficient in humid conditions, depending on individual needs.

12. Pregnancy Safety FAQ

Q. Is iUNIK Beta-Glucan Lacto Barrier Milk Essence safe to use during pregnancy?

The formula contains bakuchiol, for which pregnancy safety data are limited. Although bakuchiol is not a retinoid, a cautious approach is advisable during pregnancy. Consult your healthcare professional before use or choose a moisturizer without bakuchiol.

13. Important Note

Individual results may vary depending on skin type and routine. Patch test before first use, especially if you have sensitive skin. This product supports cosmetic hydration and the appearance of skin firmness; it is not a medical treatment. Use sunscreen during the daytime.
