COSRX Propolis Synergy Toner

We all know honey as the sweet and sticky substance that we dip the apple in on Rosh Hashanah, but what are the benefits of honey for our skin?

Honey consists of 95% sugar and the remaining 5% contains proteins, amino acids, vitamins, enzymes and minerals. Honey is a moisturizing, antioxidant, soothing, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal ingredient, so it is good for acne, for lightening red spots after acne, and even just for moisturizing and soothing the skin. There is even evidence that honey accelerates the healing of wounds and burns.

The toner contains 72.6% propolis extract and 10% honey extract. Propolis is a substance collected by bees and has soothing benefits for the skin and is also an antioxidant.

In addition to these ingredients, the toner contains other good hydrating ingredients such as glycerin, betaine, panthenol and hyaluronic acid. free of fragrance, alcohol, and essential oils.

I fell in love with this toner very quickly. From the first use you can feel the moisture it gives the skin, and at the same time it is not heavy or sticky at all and it is fun to start the routine with it. My skin is relatively dry and I think people with very dry or irritated skin can benefit from it.

I would not rely on honey alone as an acne treatment. I think it is more of a nice addition and a boost to the routine along with active ingredients. It is also very convenient to add it to the routine because it has no side effects (unless you are allergic of course) and on the contrary - it can calm the irritation from the active ingredients and integrate well into the acne routine.

The brand is cruelty-free 🐰❤️
