Lately, I've been trying to take better care of my skin. I've noticed, especially during the cooler months, that my skin tends to get irritated easily which usually results in redness, small bumps on my cheeks, or even dry flakes. One of the main ingredients I've been using more and more lately is propolis. Propolis helps heal the skin and soothe it from irritants, which sounds like just what I need for the fall and winter!
Today, I'm going to be reviewing the Propolis 90 Ampoule by Pure Heals that BNT kindly sent to me!

REVIEW
Packaging and Design
The Propolis 90 Ampoule has a very simplistic and naturalistic design. The bottle is made of a transparent yellow glass with an attached black rubber dropper. The design and packaging of the bottle really helps with the natural and pure aesthetic. The ampoule itself is actually completely clear!
Ease of Use
The ampoule is very simple and easy to use. Using the attached dropper, dispense the amount of drops needed to cover the face. The pipette attached is relatively big, but I had no trouble controlling the amount I wanted to dispense. However, since the pipette is larger than normal, it requires you to be careful or else you can accidentally dispense too much product onto your hand! I use about 3-4 drops for my entire face, so the bottle will definitely last a while. When applying onto the face, the ampoule melts and spreads effortlessly onto the skin.
Texture and Scent
The Propolis 90 Ampoule is a thick ampoule that's not too runny or liquid-y. I like how it stays in it's thicker form until you spread it onto your face which causes it to transform into a lightweight watery-like serum. It felt a little bit sticky on my face, but it disappeared by morning. It's not unbearably tacky and it's definitely not greasy at all, but it didn't absorb quickly; I usually like to apply it before bedtime, so I can skip the wait!
I love the scent of this ampoule! It has a very pleasant herbal scent mixed with a citrus that I just absolutely adore! I'm a huge fan of scents with citrus in it, but if you're not a fan of scents at all, then this probably isn't your best bet.
Effectiveness/Wearability
This is one of the best propolis products I have ever used. After the first few weeks of using this ampoule, I noticed that my skin became much more supple and I had glowing skin! This product really helps with improving skin elasticity and the skin's texture. My complexion was brighter and the propolis helped soothe the redness from my blemishes; the small bumps on my cheeks that I get from irritation also disappeared or were minimized! This product did wonders in zapping away my dry flakes and the tightness from my face being too dry was no longer a problem.

Glowing and brighter complexion

This is definitely one of the best propolis ampoules I have ever used and it is also one of the most natural ones since it contains a whopping 90% of propolis. This ampoule has helped improve not only my skin's texture and complexion, but has also made my skin feel more supple to the touch. I definitely recommend this ampoule to people who have dry skin and/or those with problematic skin. This really helped clear up my blemishes, redness, and even the little bumps from irritation!The Pure Heals Propolis 90 Ampoule retails for around ~$20 and is available on Ebay.com, HERE!
