Powered by ingredients that work (without listing the full INCI)
- 60% Propolis Extract: naturally rich in soothing components that help reduce the look of inflammation and support a healthier, more radiant complexion.
- 2% Niacinamide: helps refine the appearance of pores, even skin tone, and support a resilient skin barrier.
- Gentle BHA (0.5% Betaine Salicylate): assists with clearing debris from pores to improve clarity and smoothness.
- Hanbang-inspired botanicals (e.g., turmeric, centella, tea tree) and hydrating humectants (e.g., sodium hyaluronate) round out the formula for comfort and bounce.
The serum’s hero actives and gentle BHA percentage are highlighted by multiple reputable K‑beauty retailers, aligning with its pore‑refining and calming results.

Propolis + Niacinamide: the glow-making duo
Propolis—often called “bee glue”—is celebrated in K‑beauty for its hydrating, antibacterial, and anti‑inflammatory properties that visibly calm and cushion skin. Niacinamide complements it by supporting a stronger barrier, balancing oil, and brightening uneven tone—together promoting a clearer, more luminous look.
Texture, scent, and finish
Expect a plush, honey‑like serum that spreads easily, absorbs fast, and dries down to a comfortable, dewy finish with no residue. It is scent‑free, so it won’t compete with other steps in your routine.
Glow Serum vs. Glow Deep Serum: which one do I need?
- Glow Serum (this product): Focuses on enlarged pores, excess sebum, and inflammation with propolis + niacinamide.
- Glow Deep Serum: Targets discoloration with rice water and arbutin to visibly brighten hyperpigmentation.
If pores, shine, and sensitivity are your main concerns, choose Glow Serum; if dark spots and uneven tone top your list, consider Glow Deep Serum instead.
