COSRX Full Fit Propolis Light Ampoule 30ml

Short ingredient lists are what COSRX is known for, and this is one of the shortest they make. The cosrx propolis light ampoule is a 30ml ampoule with just eleven ingredients, and propolis extract makes up 83.25% of the formula, sitting first on the list ahead of everything else.

Propolis is the resin bees collect and use in the hive, and it has been a staple in Korean skincare for years. Here it is paired with sodium hyaluronate, panthenol, betaine and cassia obtusifolia seed extract, and nothing else. The texture is light and slightly slippy rather than watery, and it absorbs without leaving a sticky film, which is unusual for a propolis product at this concentration.

It works well for dull, dry and normal skin, and for anyone who prefers a short ingredient list they can read. If you avoid bee-derived ingredients, this is not the right ampoule for you.

COSRX is a South Korean brand founded on the idea that a short, well-chosen ingredient list works better than a long one. It reached a global audience through the Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence and its hydrocolloid acne patches, and the naming is deliberately literal so you can tell what a product does from the box. The Full Fit propolis range covers a toner, ampoule, cream and mask, all made in Korea. You can shop COSRX in Canada at C&C Cosmetics.
