Beta-Glucan
Korean: 베타글루칸
soothing, moisturizing, immune-supporting
A polysaccharide derived from yeast, mushrooms, or oats. A powerful humectant often compared to hyaluronic acid in its water-binding capacity, with the added benefit of calming skin inflammation and supporting the skin's immune response. Excellent for sensitive, reactive, or post-procedure skin.
