There's no skin tightness, and it seems like everyone could use it comfortably.
ConsWhy is the container a glass bottle with a dropper? It's so heavy when I want to take it somewhere, always making me consider leaving it behind.
TipIt's great to apply this to your face after showering and using a toner.

It has a slightly viscous, rich texture. The oil and moisture balance feels well-adjusted - I think those with combination to dry skin would really like this. Thanks to the honey ingredient, it's incredibly hydrating with decent moisturizing power. I thought it might be sticky, but surprisingly it absorbs well. It has quite a strong honey scent, which can be a bit much sometimes, but it's also pleasantly sweet.
ConsThe product itself is really great... The texture, how it absorbs, and its hydrating power are all truly excellent. However, honey and propolis don't agree with my skin, so it made me feel itchy when I applied it. My mother tried it and said it was moisturizing and nice though.
TipTest if honey or propolis ingredients suit your skin before purchasing.

While honey-infused products often feel thick and sticky, this one is surprisingly lightweight while still being hydrating. However, using a moisturizer after this serum is a must. 2) Hydration It's a holy grail item for combating deep dryness. When I only used toner, emulsion, and cream, I'd get a superficial glow that faded quickly, leaving my skin feeling dry within hours. But pairing this with a cream gives a different kind of glow that lasts longer. After a few days, I noticed my redness from dryness had significantly reduced, making my complexion more even. 3) Scent It has a typical, pleasant cosmetic fragrance. As someone who usually prefers unscented products, I found the scent a bit strong. This might be a point of contention, so if you're sensitive to fragrances, it's best to try a tester first.
ConsNothing negative to report. It's so good that I'm puzzled why it isn't more popular.

I was struggling with dryness, but this has become my absolute holy grail product lately!
ConsIt doesn't cause any blemishes and isn't irritating at all. There's really nothing to complain about. If I had to nitpick, maybe a larger size would be nice?
TipApply a generous amount before bed, and you'll find your makeup goes on flawlessly the next day. Don't be shy with it - slather it on before hitting the pillow!

I'm about halfway through the bottle, and since switching to this ampoule, I haven't experienced any deep dryness. As someone with super sensitive skin and severe redness, I've never felt this level of hydration except when my skin was parched! The moisturizing power is incredible. The texture isn't rich but applies lightly and absorbs well. I was worried it might be drying since it's lighter and absorbs faster than the Missha purple ampoule I used before, but I was surprised by how well it moisturizes. It immediately improved my skin's deep dryness, which was great. With consistent use, I noticed it calmed my skin and seemed to strengthen my skin barrier. In the past, my skin would sometimes feel a bit rough due to dryness, but using this continuously has made my skin feel more resilient. This ampoule works well both at night and in the morning. Unlike richer, tackier formulas that can reduce makeup longevity and cause pilling, this one absorbs nicely and leaves skin feeling firm without any pilling. Looking back at what I've written, it sounds like an ad, doesn't it? But I promise it's not - I bought this with my own money. It's a new product, so I'm not sure how it'll perform in other seasons, but I think I'll be reaching for this every winter.
ConsThere's nothing I dislike about it! However, I've heard that for people who don't react well to propolis, it really doesn't suit them. So those with sensitive skin should be careful.

This product comes with a dropper, and I use a few drops as a toner substitute. It's thinner than I expected, but not as watery as a typical toner. Since I usually use heavier, more viscous toners, this consistency was perfect for me. There's almost no stickiness, and it absorbs quickly without leaving any greasy residue or sitting on top of the skin. After using it for about 3-4 days, I noticed my skin looked slightly clearer and less flaky. If you're looking for a cost-effective propolis ampoule, I'd definitely recommend this one.
ConsWhile I'm satisfied using it as a toner, those who want to use it as an essence might find it lacks richness. The ampoule alone wasn't enough to prevent my skin from feeling tight, so I made sure to apply my regular skincare routine thoroughly afterwards.
TipWhen applied right after cleansing, it feels like it helps the skin absorb nutrients more effectively, enhancing overall absorption.

But after trying this, I switched immediately. Holika Holika was a brand I associated mainly with color cosmetics, but wow, their skincare is impressive too. The finish is nice and firm. The hydration is decent (sufficient for me, just entering my thirties - some calming ampoules can be drying). Unlike other propolis products I've used, this one has a pleasant scent and is transparent (see photo). I mix it with vitamin C powder when applying. Over time, it seems to fade scars and give my skin more resilience. Overall, it's great. As a skincare enthusiast who's tried many products, I can't say it's the absolute best, but it definitely holds its own against other famous propolis ampoules.
ConsNo downsides yet. However, you must apply a moisturizer after using this.
TipI mix it with vitamin powder. This makes it very thin, giving it a toner-like consistency. I pat it generously on my face, and since my hands become quite sticky, I use them to massage my neck.
