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. It is the entry this ampoule is named after, and the list carries it.
Zinc PCAactive
Zinc PCA pairs zinc with the humectant PCA. It is used in oily and blemish-prone formulas for the look of shine and visible pores, and it hydrates at the same time. It is named twenty-sixth on this ampoule's list, alongside Propolis Extract.
Lactobacillus Fermentferment
Lactobacillus Ferment is the liquid left after lactobacillus bacteria have fermented a plant or milk substrate. It carries the small molecules the fermentation produced, including lactic acid and amino acids, and is used for the look of dull, uneven skin. The panel names it eighteenth on this ampoule's list, beside Propolis Extract.
Houttuynia Cordata Extractplant extract
Houttuynia Cordata is heartleaf, and it is one of the two or three anchor plants of Korean calming skincare. Its extract carries quercitrin and other flavonoids and is used for the look of redness and blemish-prone skin. The panel names it first on this ampoule's list, beside Propolis Extract.
Ocimum Sanctum Leaf Extractplant extract
Ocimum Sanctum is holy basil, or tulsi. Its leaf extract carries plant antioxidants and is used in formulas built for the look of stressed, reactive skin. It is named ninth on this ampoule's list, alongside Propolis Extract.
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.
Where does this ampoule go in my routine?
After toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening. Anything thinner than an ampoule 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 ampoule or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Propolis Extract and all. We match this ampoule 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?
Zinc PCA, Lactobacillus Ferment and Houttuynia Cordata Extract. The order they are printed in on this ampoule's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Propolis Extract sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Ocimum Sanctum Leaf Extract, Corallina Officinalis Extract and Portulaca Oleracea Extract.

How it works
The Propolis Energy Calming Ampoule is a 30ml ampoule, used after toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening. The plant extract it is built around is Propolis Extract, named second on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Zinc PCA, Lactobacillus Ferment and Houttuynia Cordata 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 ampoule format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the ampoule By Wishtrend sells in Korea, Propolis Extract and all.
Worth knowing
- New to this formula or to the brand: patch-test on the inner arm and wait a day before applying it to the face.
- Discontinue use and rinse the area with water if redness, itching or irritation develops.
