This post will review the Cosrx Full Fit Propolis Synergy Toner.
As someone with dry, dehydrated skin, my skin struggles so much during the winter season.
It doesn’t even help that I’m currently using Tretinoin, a prescription Retinoid notorious for having dryness as a side effect.
Best believe this past winter was definitely a struggle.
Some of the hydrating products that I swore by weren’t cutting it, so I had to either layer more products or switch up my current lineup.
Bearing in mind that I put myself on a no-buy ban because of all the unopened products I currently have in my stash.
Anyway, just before winter kicked off, I started using the Rovectin Activating Treatment Lotion, which worked so well for me during the autumn months.
But immediately after winter fully kicked in, my skin started craving something more nourishing.
Yes, the former is a great toner/essence hybrid, but it is simply a humectant, which sometimes has the opposite effect due to humid levels.
Naturally, I had to resort to my trusty Korean Skincare to find something that worked.
Based on all the dozens of products I’ve used over the years, I remembered how well my skin responded to honey/propolis products.
I immediately went on eBay to find this Cosrx Full Fit Propolis Synergy Toner that has been on my wishlist for so long.
I’m almost done with it, and I’m ready to share my thoughts.
First Impressions of the Cosrx Full Fit Propolis Synergy Toner
According to COSRX;
A toner that contains 72.6% Black bee Propolis extract and 10% Honey extract will make your skin glowy and smooth. A boosting toner and the best-selling ampoule, the combination of two propolis products will make your skin plump and nourished even better than one.
Ingredient List & Fragrance
The key ingredients include:
- 72.6% Black Bee Propolis Extract
- 10.7% Honey Extract
- 0.2% Panthenol
One of the reasons I fell in love with Korean skincare products was their high percentage of plant extracts.
This toner contains 82% a combination of Propolis and Honey, the byproducts of bees known for their nourishing, healing, and repairing properties.
Honestly, what’s not to love?
Also, Cosrx is known for its no-frills approach to its products, which is why it’s one of the most globally renowned Korean Skincare brands.
The ingredient list is what you would expect from any typical Cosrx product, so it’s really no surprise.
The product also smells like nothing despite having been formulated with a high percentage of extracts.
As always, this product is alcohol, essential oil and fragrance-free.
Packaging, Texture & Consistency
This toner is packaged in a 150ml bottle which I honestly think is too tiny.
I need it to come in a 500ml bottle, as I run through it pretty quickly.
The packaging follows the same minimalist approach from the brand: simple and functional.
The bottle is great at dispensing just the right amount of product you need.
You can control it without wasting any bit of it, which is very important to me.
The toner has a watery but slightly viscous consistency, which is great for layering without feeling tacky.
It sinks immediately into your skin upon application and leaves a nice dewy glow.
Again, what’s not to love?
It’s the quintessential Korean Skincare magic; products that revitalise your skin instantly!
Price & Avaliability
This product retails anywhere from $15 – 25, depending on where you purchase it.
Just be careful and watch out for counterfeits, as Cosrx is a popular brand.
To be sure you’re getting authentic products, always purchase from accredited Asian skincare retailers.
Review of the Cosrx Full Fit Propolis Synergy Toner
Because of its thin/watery consistency, I use this toner as the first step in my routine after cleansing.
I typically go with 1-2 layers before going in with my Cosrx Snail Mucin Power Essence and finishing up with Kikumasamune Glossy Moist.
This combo keeps my skin moist and prevents dryness and peeling from Tretinoin use.
Performance
What can I say?
It’s perfect!
The nourishment I was seeking in the Rovectin lotion was right here in the Cosrx Full Fit Propolis Synergy Toner.
Despite the difference in viscosity, the difference in hydration was simply astounding.
My skin didn’t just feel hydrated; it also felt nourished, which is what I severely lacked.
While I try to use the toner daily, there’s a noticeable difference anytime I skip it.
That’s how good it is.
Finally,
Whatever your skin type, if you have dehydrated skin and need a quick pick-me-up, this toner is worth trying.
As a result of its formulation, it is not restricted to certain skin types.
It is lightweight enough to work across all skin types without feeling greasy or tacky.
If you also fall in love with the toner like me, you should try other products in the Full Fit Propolis range, including the Light Ampoule and Light Cream.
