Tosowoong Propolis Sparkle Ampoule, 100 ml

After trying the LJH vita propolis ampoule which is only a measly 15mL, I was really curious about trying this propolis sparkle ampoule by Tosowoong. Price and size-wise the Tosowoong has the LJH beaten by a landslide.Ingredient-wise the Tosowoong sports 80% propolis as well as extracts and oils. It does have two known acne irritants, scoring only a 1 each on CosDNA, butylene glycol and dimethicone.The LJH on the other hand has only 50% propolis, but a host of other great ingredients like centella asiatica, sea buckthorn, sodium hyaluronate, niacinamide, and witch hazel; with no known acne irritants.Even though they are both propolis ampoules it feels like comparing two very different products. I would say that if you are looking for an ampoule that gives a real propolis punch for healing, as well as the most bang for your buck, then the Tosowoong is the right choice. I would only recommend the LJH if you are willing to pay the same (or slightly more) price for a lot, lot less product that helps for multiple issues, but may not carry the same punch when you are seeking the benefits of propolis specifically.

I've been looking for a budget-friendly propolis product to mix with my snail essence (because I'm excessive that way 😊). So when I saw that the TOSOWOONG PROPOLIS SPARKLE AMPOULE costs about $16 for 100ml of product in Amazon, I knew I had to try it. This product is made with 80% propolis, which is supposed to hydrate the skin, leave the skin more radiant, and is good for sensitive skin. .Anyway, here are my thoughts about it. To get it out of the way, the price is awesome for a ton of product. The formula has a thick consistency and has a citrusy scent. When applied to skin, it is absorbed quickly without the sticky feel, and leaves the skin soft and hydrated. .I've been using this for more than a month now, alone and in combination with a snail essence. In my opinion, this is a great ampoule for those who want to add more hydration to their routine but in combination with other products rather than a stand alone.

So far so good. I can't really tell if it's doing a great deal on my face but, at the same time, I am using multiple products per the 10 step korean skincare routine. I love how there's so much product for the price that I paid and also how the container looks like a luxurious frosted glass decanter. I think it at least adds moisture if not the other benefits of the propolis in the product. i do have some breakouts on my face but I think it's due to another product that I'm using and not this one.Update:I stopped using this and moved on for a long time but one day I decided to use it again but mixed with the neutrogena gel moisturizer. The neutrogena moisturizer by itself is good to use for summer time but it was just okay. When I mixed the two in my routine, I kid you not, my skin looks extra plump and glowing the next morning so it was amazing! Definitely recommended.

I really, really like this product.I bought this after a friend got hers - I had been looking for a serum/ampoule and after researching this product, I bought it.At first, it was nothing special. It is a watery gel-like substance that absorbs very well into skin (I put mine on after cleansing and toning).After about a week of using this, it just seemed like... nothing.However, as I continued using it, my skin has become more smooth and the strangest thing is, I feel like my skin is producing less oil.I do have a very oily T-zone and my nose gets super shiny throughout the day but I noticed that my nose and forehead were less shiny and this was after I stopped using a mattifying spray.This product must be doing something right for my skin and I will continue to buy this product after I finish my bottle.

I love this product! I use it with another propolis serum or on its own. My skin is softer...doesn't cause me to be too oily like other moisturizers, but gives me plenty of hydration. Because you get so much for the price, I even use it on the backs of my hands, chest and shoulders where I get a bit more sun. Being a skin care specialist, nothing is a "facelift in a bottle", but this is a good, solid product choice. It compares to the products I used in the spa for 4xs the price. The scent is very soft and pleasant as well.

Package came without a seal and the liquid in the bottle is nowhere near as yellow as it is in the picture. The liquid is almost clear. I'm not sure if this product was tampered with and I am unsure of the product's authenticity. I patch tested it and it seemed to be okay, which is why I'm giving 3 stars.

I love this ampoule. I have sensitive, combination oily/normal dehydrated, acne-prone skin. Because I use Retin-A for my acne, among other things, my skin can get a bit dry. This wonderful little addition to my routine really kicks up the hydration, and doesn't bother my skin AT ALL- which is a huge plus! It's not expensive for what you get, so if you're looking for something that can give you a bit of extra hydration in your skincare routine- check this stuff out!

I've never had anything like this before, and I really like it. I apply it to bare skin and then add my serum and moisturizer. My skin is so silky smooth even after wearing a mask all day. Thank you for such a great product!
