[BeautyOfJoseon] Glow Serum : Propolis + Niacinamide 30ml

Product Overview

A lightweight treatment serum designed to support blemish-prone skin, uneven-looking tone, excess oil and post-blemish marks while providing hydration and soothing care.

The formula combines 60% propolis extract and 2% niacinamide with tamanu oil, tea tree extract, turmeric, Centella asiatica and beta-glucan.

Within the Glass Ritual Pigmentation Collection, this serum has a supportive role for practitioners whose uneven tone is particularly associated with blemishes and the marks they leave behind.

Why We Chose It

We chose the Beauty of Joseon Glow Serum because pigmentation does not always exist in isolation.

For some practitioners, the cycle is:

Blemish → visible inflammation → mark left behind → uneven-looking tone

This serum allows us to address that type of practitioner differently from someone whose primary concern is established sun-related pigmentation or general dullness.

The combination of 60% propolis extract + 2% niacinamide provides soothing, antioxidant and tone-supportive care without turning the serum into another highly intensive multi-acid treatment.

This gives it a distinct place alongside the stronger pigmentation serums in the collection.

Who It's For

Consider this serum if you are concerned about:

• Post-blemish marks
• Uneven-looking skin tone
• Blemish-prone skin
• Excess oil
• Dullness
• Skin that benefits from soothing care alongside brightening ingredients
• Wanting a gentler alternative to highly concentrated pigmentation treatments

This may be particularly useful when blemishes and the marks they leave behind occur together.

Anyone with a known sensitivity or allergy to bee-derived ingredients such as propolis should avoid this product.

How to Use

After cleansing and toning, apply approximately 2–3 drops evenly over the face.

Gently pat until absorbed.

Follow with moisturiser.

Use according to your skin's tolerance and the other treatments in your routine.

Ritual Position

Cleanse → Tone → Beauty of Joseon Glow Serum → Moisturise

This occupies the treatment-serum stage of your Glass Ritual.

Glass Ritual Pairing

This serum is not the same type of pigmentation treatment as the Beauty of Joseon Glow Deep Serum: Rice + Alpha-Arbutin.

The distinction is useful:

Glow Serum: Propolis + Niacinamide
Better positioned when blemishes, oiliness and post-blemish marks are part of the concern.

Glow Deep Serum: Rice + Alpha-Arbutin
More directly positioned toward visible pigmentation and uneven-looking tone.

Practitioners therefore do not automatically need both.

Glass Ritual Principle: Choose the treatment according to the pattern you observe—not simply because two products say “Glow.”

Safety & Ingredient Information

For external use only. Avoid direct contact with the eyes and discontinue use if persistent irritation occurs.

This product contains propolis, a bee-derived ingredient. Do not use if you have a known allergy to propolis or related bee products.

The formula also contains betaine salicylate, so practitioners using several exfoliating products should consider the activity of their entire routine rather than automatically layering multiple exfoliating treatments.

Ingredient formulations can change over time. Always check the ingredient list printed on the product packaging you receive if you have known allergies or sensitivities.

Glass Ritual does not promise that this cosmetic serum will remove acne, pigmentation or post-blemish marks. Its role is to support the appearance of clearer, brighter and more even-looking skin while providing soothing and hydrating care.
