COSRX - Full Fit Propolis Light Ampoule - 30ml

PROPOLIST IS COMMONLY KNOWN AS "BEE GLUE". According to and article published by the USA National Institutes of Health, "Propolis smooths out wrinkles and has anti-aging properties. A huge rold is played here by anti-oxidents such as phenolic compounds and flavonoids which neutralize an unfavorable effect of free redicals on the skin. Be glue lightens and smoothes the skin, rduces signs of fatigue and moisturizes it." NIH, Article PMC7036894. So....I jumped on this when I saw it on TEMU for a really great bargain price. This one does not sting my eyes if I accidentally get it on my eyeballs which is a big plus for me because so many of the eye serums and creams being marketed out there do cause discomfort or stinging when they leak onto my eyeballs.

Anything honeybees produce is good and golden. I am so sorry that worldwide pesticide use has decimated so many bee populations. Without bees, we would be without food.....and miraculous cosmetic products. Please live a bee-friendly life by avoiding using pesticides.

I like everything I get from Cosrx but I LOVE the honey propolis line. Previously I jumped on the snail mucin hype train but was not impressed by those products on MY skin. My skin is combination; dry in winter, oily in tzone in summer. I have red cheeks and prone to lines as my skin gets drier. The honey propolis line is the GOAT if you truly want dewy, plump, smooth skin. I was using just the toner which I really liked but knew something was missing. I finally was able to get this ampule (it’s always sold out) and now my skincare is complete. It’s smooth and dries down without getting sticky or going matte like the snail mucin. My skin stays feeling hydrated allllll day, even after a full day of work.

Texture:feels thick and a little oily (a bit sticky upon application) but is light on skin and absorbs quickEffectiveness:10/10Fragrance:none-skin feels very hydrated, nourished, and healthy-i feel like my natural skin barrier is stronger after consistent use as I noticed less breakouts & my face looks hydrated even after waking up-leaves you glowing immediately after, but I caution its use if you have oily skin going into humid environments during the day unless gusto mong magprito ng itlog gamit ng oil galing sa mukha mo hahah

I received this product for free from Picky and Skin 1004 in exchange for my honest review. The Propolis Light Ampoule is composed of 83.3% Black Bee Propolis Extract along with 0.2% hyaluronic acid and 0.1% panthenol. These ingredients work together to reduce redness, soothe, hydrate and plump skin and to give it a honey like glow. I really like this ampoule and would definitely purchase it in the future. It is slightly thicker in texture than the acne serum but still absorbs well with no tackiness. My skin feels so hydrated but never oily with this ampoule. Dry, flaky skin is gone. My skin has more of a glow than before.

Just okay

This is a viscous gel like serum with no fragrance. Never experienced any reactions to it. Used it at a time when my skin was very sensitive and dry from cold weather & overuse of actives. It had instant moisturizing effects but unfortunately did not last long, especially in the winter. My skin felt tight after using it and just never provided the softening or plumpness it claimed to give. This serum made it feel like I was adding an extra unnecessary step to my routine. I never noticed any long term effects that would make me want to repurchase this. It did help relieve some of the redness I would get and heal the skin but nothing too extreme or long lasting. Felt a bit oily in the summer time so I didn't like to pair it with makeup. Also, the packaging is not ... MoreThis is a viscous gel like serum with no fragrance.

Felt a bit oily in the summer time so I didn't like to pair it with makeup. Also, the packaging is not helpful when you're close to finishing it. The dropper doesn't reach the bottom so I had to keep it upside down so I could get the last bit of the product for the next use. I would not recommend. Rating 2-3/5.

My proven way to use this product

I've heard some point out that the product is very sticky, and it is a bit compared to some serums that immediately sink into your skin. What I have found that work for me is to incorporate it into a routine of use at nighttime. I use a buff puff type scrubber and exfoliate my skin and then after dying, I apply the Propolis Light Ampoule, working it upward before it starts to dry. I do this an hour or two before sleep, and then go to bed and let the product work overnight. In the morning, after it has done its magic, your face will not be sticky at all, and the product will have produced radiantly hydrated skin that glows like magic. I'm 61, male, but I have been taking care of my skin for years. I work outside in the sun often in my garden and go to the beach and ... MoreI've heard some point out that the product is very sticky, and it is a bit compared to some serums that immediately sink into your skin.

I'm 61, male, but I have been taking care of my skin for years. I work outside in the sun often in my garden and go to the beach and other sun activities. My skin tone is very pale, and yet I have no freckles or blemishes. I receive compliments often about how radiant and wrinkle free my skin looks. Most people assume I am 20 to 30 years younger than I am. That is what Propolis does for me. It is magic in a bottle and for me, I have found that using it at night is best, especially for you ladies who will likely wish to apply some makeup or cosmetics over it in the morning. I hope this helps other users benefit from the product.

Results minimal

Pros:-The texture of this product is light and non-sticky.- Even when used in a routine every day it still lasted me awhile.-Doesn’t pill- can produce a ‘glass skin’ effect- suitable for sensitive skin- no strong smellCons:- Unfortunately, I didn’t notice many benefits aside from a moisturising effect. I ended up using some of this on dry elbows instead of my face.- When my skin barrier was compromised this didn’t produce any noticeable soothing effect.- This just produced the effect of a hydrating serum, not really a con but I was hoping for more.

Saved my skin

I’ve had oily acne prone skin all my adult life and recently ruined my skin with a hyperpigmentation fading skincare regiment from the inkey list (still love them it just didn’t work well for me) my skin became dehydrated and broke out so bad. It was honestly awful. I obviously picked at it and made everything worse and could barely look at myself in the mirror. Then James Welsh recommended this in a Korean skincare breakdown and it’s honestly working so well for me. I use this twice a day along side the inkey list tranexamic acid serum, the cerave hydrating lotion, the zitsticka mega shade spf 50 and an occasional retinol/ vitamin c on days when my skin has no active breakouts. I’m not one to leave reviews but this skincare routine has me looking the best I’ve ... MoreI’ve had oily acne prone skin all my adult life and recently ruined my skin with a hyperpigmentation fading skincare regiment from the inkey list (still love them it just didn’t work well for me) my skin became dehydrated and broke out so bad.

Will buy over and over again

I am 63 and have highly reactive sensitive skin with rosacea. I have tried many serums over the years. This is the best, hands down. I noticed my skin was looking dull, lifeless, and just plain bad. I'll admit, I'd slacked off on my skin care routine, doing the bare minimum. My daughter gave me a bottle of this. I started off using it alone then moisturizing for a month. It worked wonders. I decided I'd try it mixed with an equal amount of hyaluronic acid; two drops of each covers my face and neck. My skin is glowing and my rosacea has improved dramatically. This is a holy grail serum for me.
