A thick, honey-like serum from Beauty of Joseon, a Korean skincare brand. It pairs propolis extract with niacinamide and a gentle BHA (betaine salicylate), plus tea tree and centella. It absorbs without a sticky finish.

Key ingredients

• Propolis extract: Hydrates and helps calm the skin for a glowing look
• Niacinamide: Helps refine the look of pores and even skin tone
• Betaine salicylate (gentle BHA): Gently exfoliates to help smooth texture
• Tea tree and centella extracts: Help soothe blemish-prone skin

For all skin types, especially those with visible pores or reactive, blemish-prone skin.

1. After cleansing and toner, dispense 2–3 drops into your palm.
2. Apply gently to the face and neck.
3. Tap lightly with your fingertips until absorbed.
4. Follow with moisturizer. In the morning, finish with sunscreen.
