- Niacinamide at entry six, early enough to carry real weight
- Betaine salicylate for mild pore refinement without a separate BHA step
- Centella asiatica extract and tea tree extract back up the pore-clearing argument
- No alcohol denat, SD alcohol or ethanol on the list
- 30 ml: this brand also sells a 60 ml bottle if you go through a pump a day

## How it works

Dull, congested-looking skin usually needs two different answers at once, tone and texture, and this serum runs both from the top of the list. Propolis extract is entry one, ahead of even water. Niacinamide follows close behind at entry six, early enough to carry real weight, and betaine salicylate, a gentle oil-soluble BHA salt, sits further down for pore refinement without a separate exfoliating step. Centella asiatica and tea tree extract close out the pore argument. Press it in before moisturizer, morning or night.

## How to use

1. Use it after toner, morning and evening, before the moisturizer you finish with.
2. One or two pumps, pressed over the face with the flats of your hands.
3. It feels tacky for a moment, so give it that moment before the next layer goes on.
4. Do not dab it on one patch of skin only; a serum is a whole face step.

## FAQ

### What is propolis extract doing at the top of this serum's ingredient list?

Propolis extract is the first ingredient, ahead of even water, which makes it the structural base of the serum rather than a marketing add-in. Propolis is a resin bees produce to seal and disinfect the hive, and Korean formulators reach for it on skin that looks dull or uneven.

### Where does niacinamide sit relative to the propolis?

Niacinamide is sixth on the ingredient list, close behind the propolis and water block, which is early enough to be doing real work rather than sitting near the bottom of the list as a checkbox ingredient. It backs the same tone-evening argument the propolis extract starts.

### Does this serum have a BHA in it?

Betaine salicylate, a gentle oil-soluble BHA salt, appears on the list at a low, stated amount. It is dosed for mild pore refinement rather than the stronger exfoliation a full-strength BHA gives, and centella asiatica extract sits nearby to keep the formula from reading harsh.

### Is this the 30 ml or 60 ml bottle?

This listing is the 30 ml bottle, the smaller of the two sizes Beauty of Joseon sells this serum in. It is a reasonable way to try the propolis and niacinamide pairing before committing to the larger 60 ml size.

### How can I confirm this is the authentic Korean-market Beauty of Joseon formula, not a US reformulation?

Beauty of Joseon verifies its products by sourcing chain rather than a scan, because the brand has retired its own QR verification and is phasing out its authenticity seal. Your unit arrives with its Korean-market barcode and batch code intact, not swapped for an export label, and we publish exactly where we buy. That intact packaging is the record the brand itself points to now that its earlier scan-based check is gone.
