CNP Laboratory Propolis Energy Ampule Pad

Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read

Read on 2026-10-02

What is this product?

A 70 pad toner pad from CNP Laboratory, wiped over the face or laid on an area for a few minutes, sold on the brand own store. The printed list has 31 entries led by water, glycerin and butylene glycol, with niacinamide at 7, propolis extract at 11 printed at 20 ppm, honey extract at 12, sodium hyaluronate at 13 and beta-glucan at 14. Citric acid sits at 23, a geranium flower oil at 28 and three fragrance allergen names last.

What makes it different?

Propolis is the headline ingredient but is printed at 20 ppm, behind ten entries, while the four one use test badges carry no baseline. The pad has an embossed face and a smooth face that the brand maps to glow and soothing care without face specific data.

What is in it?

The full ingredient list as the brand publishes it, in the printed order. Each name links to what we know about that ingredient.

This brand publishes its ingredient list in Korean only. Names below are the matching INCI names from the Korean Cosmetic Association ingredient dictionary.
