Product summary

"Institut Esthederm - Intensive Propolis+ Serum-Lotion" is effective for: Exfoliation and Anti-blemish

This product could be helpful for: Anti-aging and Moisturizing, but its actives are not the most effective or are not well-studied.

Ingredient callouts

  • Salicylic acid (0.55% - 1.30%). This is an oil-soluble exfoliating acid. Because of this property, it can work inside pores and help reduce the congestion. It has an anti-inflammatory effect and is used to treat acne. Because it is a quite strong exfoliator, be careful with using this product too often: it could result in over-exfoliation.
  • Humectants (carnosine 0.05% - 0.15% and carnosine 0.40% - 0.90%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
