How it works
The Propolis Energy Boosting Essence is a 100ml essence, used after toner and before serum, morning and evening, on damp skin. The plant extract it is built around is Propolis Extract, named twelfth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extract, Centaurea Cyanus Flower Water and Schisandra Chinensis Fruit Extract, so the plant extract is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Propolis Extract stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the essence format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the essence By Wishtrend sells in Korea, Propolis Extract and all.
Key benefits
- Propolis Extract, the plant extract this essence is built around
- Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extract, Centaurea Cyanus Flower Water, Schisandra Chinensis Fruit Extract and Morus Alba Bark Extract on the same list, plant extracts
- Nelumbo Nucifera Leaf Extract and Honey Extract further down the same list
- Propolis Extract named twelfth on the manufacturer list printed on this page
- Original Korean Formula, the essence sold on Korean shelves
Key actives
Propolis Extractplant extract
Propolis is the resin bees collect from tree buds and use to seal the hive. It is rich in flavonoids, carries a warm amber colour and scent, and is used for the look of dull, stressed skin. The name on the box points at it, and it is named twelfth on this essence's own ingredient list.
Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extractplant extract
Willow Bark Extract carries salicin, the plant compound salicylic acid is related to. The two are not interchangeable: willow bark is a mild clarifying extract, not a BHA exfoliant at the levels used in cosmetics. It is named second on this essence's list, alongside Propolis Extract.
Centaurea Cyanus Flower Waterplant extract
Cornflower distillate, a traditional eye-area ingredient in French pharmacy formulas. It stands in for part of the plain water. The panel names it third on this essence's list, beside Propolis Extract.
Schisandra Chinensis Fruit Extractplant extract
Omija, the five-flavour berry of Korean tea and herbal practice. Its extract carries lignans and fruit acids and is used as an antioxidant conditioning extract. The panel names it fourth on this essence's list, beside Propolis Extract.
Morus Alba Bark Extractplant extract
White mulberry bark extract, one of the classic East Asian plant ingredients used for the look of uneven tone. It carries mulberroside and flavonoids. The panel names it fifth on this essence's list, beside Propolis Extract.
Where does this essence go in my routine?
After toner and before serum, morning and evening, on damp skin. Anything thinner than an essence goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Propolis Extract and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market essence or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Propolis Extract and all. We match this essence to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.
What else is on the list besides Propolis Extract?
Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extract, Centaurea Cyanus Flower Water and Schisandra Chinensis Fruit Extract. The order they are printed in on this essence's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Propolis Extract sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Morus Alba Bark Extract, Nelumbo Nucifera Leaf Extract and Honey Extract.

Payment and security

How to use
- Apply after toner and before moisturizer. Pat or smooth it over a cleansed face and let it absorb before the next step, AM and PM.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this essence on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Propolis Extract on the list.
- Introduce this essence on its own for the first week, so anything your skin does is traceable to the Propolis Extract rather than to three changes at once.
