COSRX Propolis Ampoule Glow-Boosting Serum 30ml — 73.5% Propolis, Lightweight Hydrating Gel-Serum

COSRX Propolis Ampoule is a lightweight, hydrating face serum that uses 73.5% propolis extract to restore radiance, calm sensitivity, and improve skin texture without heavy oils.

This ampoule is a concentrated Korean skincare treatment designed to layer easily under creams or makeup. Its gel-serum texture absorbs quickly, delivering humectant and soothing benefits while promoting an even-looking complexion. The formula is made with skin-friendly standards—dermatologist-tested, hypoallergenic, and free from parabens, sulfates, phthalates, and animal testing—making it suitable for daily use and compatible with most routines.

How will this ampoule fit into my daily skincare routine?

Use the COSRX Propolis Ampoule after cleansing and toning, applying a few drops to damp skin to lock in moisture. It acts as a bridging layer between toner and moisturizer, helping subsequent products spread more evenly and boosting overall hydration.

• Apply 2–3 drops to face and neck morning and night.
• Pat gently until absorbed, then follow with moisturizer and sunscreen.
• Works well under makeup as a lightweight primer layer.

What benefits can I expect for sensitive or uneven skin?

The high concentration of propolis extract targets dullness and uneven texture while offering calming, hydrating support. It’s formulated to reduce irritation risk and to help skin appear more luminous and balanced over consistent use.

• Helps brighten and even skin tone with regular application.
• Light hydration without clogging pores for sensitive types.
• Dermatologist-tested and hypoallergenic formulation.

Is the texture and absorption suitable for layering with other actives?

The ampoule has a lightweight gel-serum feel that absorbs rapidly, making it an effective layering product. It pairs well with most serums and can be combined with gentle actives; patch-test if mixing with strong exfoliants or retinoids.

• Gel-serum texture absorbs quickly, leaving minimal residue.
• Compatible with hydrating serums and lightweight oils.
• Patch-test when introducing with acids or retinol.

Who is this for?
