Beauty of Joseon Glow Serum: Propolis + Niacinamide
Product photo from the Olive Young Korea listing (조선미녀 광채프로폴리스세럼 30ml).
Why it's on the Korean shelf
The hanbok-packaged brand's second hit after Relief Sun. Propolis for glow, niacinamide for tone — a two-for-one serum at a road-shop price.
Who it's for
Dull, blemish-prone skin on a budget.
Honest note
Slightly sticky on application; it settles in a minute.
