One more niacinamide product to try from a bunch out there.
๐งด ๐๐๐ฒ ๐๐ง๐ ๐ซ๐๐๐ข๐๐ง๐ญ๐ฌ. 60% propolis extract (which, interestingly, is an ingredient collected by bees from tree buds to seal and varnish honeycomb) to address visibly large pores and inflamed skin; 2% niacinamide to keep the skin moist and to help control sebum secretion; and I did not expect it also has is 0.5% BHA, a very mild exfoliant to help clean pores.
โซ๏ธ๐
๐จ๐ซ๐ฆ & ๐
๐ซ๐๐ ๐ซ๐๐ง๐๐. Out of the bottle from the dropper the consistency is pretty thick it bubbles up as you dispense it. No detectable scent which is one less risk of irritating the skin.
๐๐ฝ ๐๐ฑ๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐ข๐๐ง๐๐. Got hold of this first Beauty of Joseon product I tried out of heeding attractive user reviews. I wanted to address skin dullness. Applying it leaves the skin moist to slightly sticky as it dries up. In the duration of my usage, it did not irritate me.
๐ฒ ๐๐ซ๐ข๐๐. I time my skincare purchases during sale events so I was able to get this Korean product for โฑ425 = $8 on Shopee, originally $17.
However, I could not tell for certain that it worked effectively for me, in combination with all the other products I used, because I was waiting for days of โglowโ but I guess did not really pay me a visit. From prior observations I should not rely on niacinamide alone to pull it off and begin trying some other actives.

packed with 60% propolis extract and 2% niacinamide, it has the most impressive ingredients with tamanu oil, tumeric root, centella asiatica and tea tree extract. This light water-gel texture spreads easily and feels most moisturizing, it can be kind of tacky at first but dissipates after a while. It is not only soothing but also brightening at the same time. I suggest this serum if you have acne-prone and dull skin

This product changed my skincare game. It really helps a lot in treating my acne scars and just make my overall complexion smooth and glowy ๐
Downside I would probably say is the size. Now the serums I purchased usually comes with a minimum size of 50mL, which usually last me around 3+ months. This serum is only 30mL so lasted me lesser than that.

Stop wishing you had a glowy skin and get it!
Fomulated with 60% of Propolis Extract and 2% of Niacinamide alongside many other interesting ingredients, this serum has one of the best combinations of ingredients in the market right now.
Texture:
The texture is very beautiful. Slightly thin but with enough viscosity, it soaks into the skin in a matter of seconds and leaves it very nourished and plump. It doesn't feel sticky nor tacky despite the fact that honey is the main ingredient!
This serum is:
โAlcohol free
โFragrance free
โParaben free
โSilicone free
โSulfate free
โCruelty free
Star ingredients:
โญPropolis Extract
โญNiacinamide
โญTamanu Oil
โญCurcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root Extract
โญCentella Asiatica
My thoughts:
I have been eyeing this serum for some time, and now that I have it I regret not getting it sooner!
And let me just congratulate whomever came with the name for rhis serum. You couldn't have done better!
You guys, this is the GLOW serum if ever you need one.
No highlighter in the world can compete with the natural glow you get from this serum. Just the right subtle amount of glow you need to look healthy and lively, and it lasts the whole day!
And beyond the glow, this serum is perfect in every way. The texture is perfect for my taste. The ingredients list is out of this world. And it deals with many skin concerns at the same time:
โ
Hyperpigmentation: Propolis, niacinamide, and Tumeric root extract.
โ
Acne and pore care: Niacinamide, tamanu oil, BHA.
โ
Hydration: Propolis, glycerin, and lotus corniculatus seed extract (bird's foot).
โ
Sensitive skin: Propolis, Centella Asiatica, and Tocopherol.
โ
Anti-aging: Niacinamide and Tocopherol.
I have been using it for less than a month and I'm already getting fantastic results. My skin is slightly but noticeably brighter than before, and very hydrated and protected all day long (which is my main target in any skincare product). I cannot say much about the hyperpigmentation claims because that would need an extended amount of time and regular usage... but on the whole, I'm more than satisfied with this purvhase and would definitely buy again.
Nothing bad to report!

my first serum from Beauty of Joseon. the packaging is common like other serum, with pipettes as aplicator. it was made from thick plastic I believe with doff yet transparent color where you can see the actual color of the serum. there is sticker where you can see the iconic logo from the brand as well.
for the texture, this one is the thickest compared to their other serums. it has transparent yellow-ish color and doesn't have any fragrance in it. at first it gonna leave tacky feeling on my skin, but once it absorbs, the tacky feeling will be reduced. it takes time to absorb anyways.
I use this as my PM routine, I got the glowy result in the morning and it gave me hydration but not so much.
even though I've been using this serum for quite long, I didn't find it helps reduced my dark spots or brightening my skin.. maybe needs long time use to reach that point idk. it only gave temporary glowy feeling in the morning and the hydration it gave isn't much. plus it ran out faster because its too thick, so it's non spread-able and needs more amount to apply on my face.

{ Beauty of Joseon } โจGlow Serumโจ
๐ง Ready for some dropper, bubble shots and first impressions?!
๐Watch the full vid till the end and hope you enjoy it!
โญ๏ธ So I have been using the Niacinamide from The Ordinary but getting tired of the pilling I get when I apply along with the incompatible products. Luckily I just got this @beautyofjoseon_official serum from my last @stylekorean_global haul so here are my first impressions!
๐ฌ First off I thought the vial was too small but donโt be deceived bc you only need a few drops to cover your entire face. There is significant viscosity as you can see from the reel. I love that its not greasy and my skin just drinks it up! Most important too is it layers without causing any pilling! ๐
๐ฏ Overall happy with this serum๐งก. This will totally replace my previous Niacinamide serum! I love that this will help prevent acne, soothe my skin while improving my skin texture and tone. Sounds promising so I have high hopes for this serum.
โจWill update this post for any changes or improvement in my skin

If your looking for a a serum that's:
-not oily
-in between watery & Goey texture but spreads evenly
-Gives you that glow and hydrate finish
This is it. Glow serum nailed with the smooth application and how goey it's texture but not oily as it touches my skin. When I get to try the glow serum, its game over ๐. No fragrance, alcohol and essential oil. Thou, I see little to no effect of the brightening yet. Still I definitely see result in terms of soothing, glow and moisturise skin.
Well, it's in a 30ml. If your that concern when a small products. Have overall it's worth it for gentle brightening and moisturise skin.

๐ฏMy thoughts:
First time I used this serum, I actually hated it because it is thick and sticky when I applied it on my face. However it does not leave my face sticky for that long because once you give it a minute or two for it to be absorbed. It gave me a nice, radiant glass skin glow. It feels lightweight and surprisingly my skin didn't get oily throughout the day. I am quite impressed because of the high quality ingredients list but somehow it is affordable compared to other serums in the market.
I highly recommend this for all skin types๐
*been using for 2 weeks and counting

Pretty small hard plastic bottle. The serum is very vicious, so forget the days where you have to hurry putting drops on your face because they're dripping. There is no added fragrance. The product itself has a very light herbal scent.

At first it's a bit tacky on the skin but it absorbs quickly. I'm surprised such a vicious serum isn't sticky. I quite liked how it felt on my skin, not irritating at all. As the name may suggest, this leaves your skin glowing. Like really glowing, not shining. I think it's the perfect product if you have dull skin.
This serum really helps lessen redness and controls sebum well. It felt hydrating to the skin and smoothed it a bit. Did it lessen acne? Not really. I didn't notice a significant decrease in already existing acne. A very slight decrease in new acne growth though.
The bottle is really small. Before even trying it, I bought mutiple bottles because I wanted to use it long enough before giving a review. And oh boy was I right, I really went through those quickly. All in all I liked it a lot! Not mind-blowing but good! Maybe my expectations were a bit too high with all the hype this was getting. It definitely deserves the hype but a tad bit too overhyped in my opinion.

At first, I was afraid that this serum was gonna be too sticky for my oily skin, but when i tried it wasn't so sticky as i imagined (but yeah it' still feels kinda tacky because of the propolis).
The texture is kinda gel-watery and it spreads easily on the skin.
It packed with 60% propolis extract and 2% niacinamide.
it also contains other great ingredients such as tamanu oil, tumeric root, centella asiatica and tea tree extract.
I like this product ๐ฅฐ
I think the down side is the size and the price point ๐
