Esthederm Intensive Propolis+ Zinc Serum-Lotion

Esthederm Intensive Propolis+ Zinc Serum-Lotion is a lightweight purifying and mattifying lotion for blemish-prone, combination to oily skin. It combines propolis extract, which purifies and soothes, with zinc gluconate, which helps regulate sebum and mattify, plus salicylic acid and Esthederm's Cellular Water. It helps reduce the look of breakouts, residual marks, enlarged pores and shine for a clearer, more even complexion. The bottle holds 130 ml.

Yes, that is exactly who it is for: combination to oily, blemish-prone and uneven skin dealing with breakouts, post-blemish marks, enlarged pores, excess shine or uneven texture. It is for adult use. Dry or very sensitive skin may find a purifying lotion with salicylic acid too much, and it is not needed if you do not have shine or congestion.

Apply it to clean, dry skin on the face and neck with a cotton pad, avoiding the eye area. Use it morning and evening before your serum or moisturizer, like a toner step. It can be combined with the rest of the Intensive Propolis+ range or other Esthederm skincare. In the morning, finish with a non comedogenic sunscreen.

Esthederm reports that shine was visibly reduced within 7 days for most users, with pores looking tightened and residual marks visibly reduced in the use test. The mattifying effect is immediate on application. Give it a few weeks of twice daily use to judge the effect on marks and texture. A 130 ml bottle used twice daily typically lasts a couple of months.

It is the prep step of the Intensive Propolis+ routine. Follow it with Intensive Propolis+ Salicylic Acid Concentrate Serum on the T-zone or spots in the evening, then Intensive Propolis+ Ferulic Acid Skin Perfecting Cream as your mattifying moisturizer. Use Intensive Propolis+ Kaolin Purifying Mask a few times a week for blackheads. Sunscreen by day helps marks fade.

Avoid the eye area and broken skin. It contains salicylic acid and fragrance, so patch test if you are reactive, and do not stack it with several other acids or a retinol on the same evening until your skin is used to it. It is for adult use. Propolis is a bee product, so skip it if you have a known allergy to bee products.

It is positioned as a serum-lotion rather than a simple toner: a lightweight textured lotion applied with a cotton pad that also carries actives, including propolis, zinc gluconate, salicylic acid and Esthederm's Cellular Water. Beyond refreshing the skin, it mattifies, helps refine pores and works on residual marks, and it preps skin for the Propolis+ serum and cream. Think of it as the first active step, not just a rinse.
