QANZIRE Propolis Facial Glow Serum (30 ml)

This is a Chinese-made brand, despite the Korean lettering on the bottle and being sold as Korean. The packaging photos clearly show that this is made in China, but the design replicates exactly the serums by Beauty of Janseon. However, the lettering on the bottle only mentions the product description. They sell it as Qanzire, but the brand or distributor is Forwerher, which is a Chinese brand that tend to  BS customers with info that isn't true. That is my experience with other products I've bought from them. But also, in my books, they have affordable good quality products, especially the serums, at half the cost of similar cosmetics. This is one of them. 

This a great serum infused with a potent combo of ingredients. The product is made our of 60% propolis (bees-derived product), Salicylic acid, ascorbic acid, Centella Asiatica, oat, niamicine, hyaluronic acid, snail mucin and other plants extracts. All of those ingredients have nourishing, bactericide, anti-inflammatory and healing properties, and are perfect to tackle oil and dark spots on the skin. That being the case, this serum is really great for combination and acne-prone skin, mature or sun-damaged skin, and also for sensitive skins like mine. 

The product is not oily at all. It feels dry on application, but it spreads beautifully. It's absorbed quickly and leaves no oily or sticky residue on my skin. A few drops are enough for each application. 

I use this serum in the morning after washing my face. I let the oil dry for a minute, and then apply my normal moisturiser (from another brand). It's like having a mini beauty treatment every morning. It works beautifully and I haven't had any reaction. My skin glows. You can see the difference before and after application.  

This serum has no scent and barely any smell. The packaging is minimalist and elegant. I would recommend the product, even though is not Korean.
