Product details

Barrier + deep moisture

Beta-glucan, ectoin and panthenol in a rich cream that floods dry, sensitive skin with moisture and shores up its barrier.

iUNIK’s richest beta-glucan cream builds on 10,000 ppm of beta-glucan with ectoin and panthenol, the three ingredients behind its “3X” name. Shea butter, plant oils and ceramide NP add cushion, and the creamy texture still absorbs quickly.
