The brand prefers to focus on the essential rather than piling the ingredients in its formulas and taking the risk of causing a skin reaction. This is a trend I see more and more in Korean cosmetics, by the way, and I think it’s great!

It is lightly hydrating, soothing, and non-irritating. This tea tree serum is just what my skin needed the past few weeks. My skin has been calmer, with less redness and fewer breakouts. It feels very lightweight on the skin, making it ideal for wearing under makeup. Sodium Hyaluronate: A popular hydrating skincare ingredient, sodium hyaluronate is a form of hyaluronic acid that attracts and retains moisture in the skin, making it ideal for dry skin. It leaves the skin hydrated and plump. The name "IUNIK" is ultimately taken from the acronym "Ideal Unique Natural Ingredients Knowhow"– a phrase that embodies the brand's commitment to innovative and creative skincare excellence. Although slightly more expensive, it is even more lightweight on the skin than iUNIK. For more details, please see my COSRX AC Collection Blemish Spot Clearing Serum review post.
