Propolis Extract
INCI Name: Propolis Extract
Bees collect resinous substances from the buds, bark, and young shoots of various trees and plants. They mix these plant resins with their own enzymes and beeswax to produce propolis, which is used to seal cracks in the hive and protect its internal environment.
For cosmetic applications, propolis extract is typically obtained through alcohol- or water-based extraction methods to concentrate its bioactive compounds.
Effects on the skin:
Helps soothe irritated skin.
Provides antioxidant protection and may help defend the skin against free radical damage.
Supports the skin's natural regeneration processes, making it beneficial for stressed and problem-prone skin.
Exhibits purifying properties and can help inhibit the proliferation of microorganisms, which is why it is commonly included in formulations designed for acne-prone skin.
