Best value for money, you can't beat this! It's a brand I always trust and use. I personally don't mind artificial scents and can overlook certain aspects of the texture, but others might find the fragrance and feel quite polarizing. When your skin is irritated and red, apply this generously and let it absorb. Then finish with aloe gel or a light hydrating moisturizer. I highly recommend it. - rh*******Oily SkinMar 29, 2021
I was impressed by the affordable price and convenient packaging. The high concentration (20%) of propolis is also remarkable. However! It's way too watery! No matter how many layers I apply, my skin still feels dry and tight. To make matters worse, the propolis scent is overwhelmingly strong. - ka**********Combination SkinSensitive SkinDec 15, 2020
Gentle on the skin Great value for a high-concentration formula Propolis that doesn't feel sticky Can't really tell if it helps with blemishes Didn't cause any breakouts, but didn't see any noticeable effects either - rm********Dry SkinSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityDead Skin CellsRecommendedSep 22, 2020
September 28, 2020 Review after 2.5 weeks of use Being highly concentrated, it appears viscous when first pumped onto the back of your hand. However, it quickly transforms into a water-like texture. Positives: - Hydrating - Good ingredients - Applies smoothly - Absorbs well with a fresh finish (no oily residue) - Provides slight moisturizing effect after absorption despite not being oily (not as intense as a cream, but doesn't evaporate like alcohol-based products). Likely suitable for all seasons (though I haven't tried it in summer) - Affordable with functional benefits. Seems promising for daily use to see effects (though this product alone may not be enough for wrinkle improvement) - Inexpensive enough to use on areas beyond the face - One pump is sufficient to cover the entire face - Generous amount of product I'll use a casual tone due to many typos (typing on my phone). - Has a distinct propolis scent. I don't mind it, but some people describe it as a 'saliva smell' in other propolis product reviews. It's subjective. At first, I thought it might be that 'cosmetic saliva smell', but after continued use, I can distinguish it. Now it just smells like honey to me, so I don't mind it. - It's better to use just one pump rather than applying too much. Recently, I've noticed that reducing my toner application from 5-6 layers to 1-3 has helped fade persistent redness around my nose (likely from irritation). Too much product can be counterproductive. While rich creams are fine, it's recommended to reduce the number of products and apply a generous amount of cream. - Using this product along with other functional products after the Leejiham (LJH) AHA BHA toner slightly worsens my skin condition. It's probably due to overuse of functional products on sensitized skin. However, niacinamide products seem fine. Update August 30, 2021: I have skin allergies to honey and mugwort. I discovered this after visiting a dermatologist last year due to full-body hives. It wasn't because of this product, but likely due to dust mites when my immunity was low. During related tests, I found out about my allergies to honey and mugwort. So, I won't be using propolis products anymore. I have a lot of this product left, but I haven't used it since then. Even without this reason, I probably wouldn't include this product in my current skincare routine that I've carefully curated for my skin. It doesn't offer significant benefits for me. Apply after toner and essence. Due to its thin consistency, it's best to use before oils or ampoules.
