IS IT RIGHT FOR ME?
The Propolis Day Cream by Dr Spiller is an excellent choice if your skin tends toward oiliness, congestion, breakouts or combination texture, and you struggle to find a moisturiser that hydrates without feeling heavy or causing pimples. Propolis, a resin-like substance bees produce to protect their hives, brings antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that can help calm visible irritation while encouraging balanced skin function.
You might find this particularly helpful if:
- Your face feels greasy by midday, yet still tight or dehydrated in spots
- You notice redness, irritation or bumps after sweating or environmental stress
- You’ve tried moisturisers that feel too rich or clog your pores
- Your skin is acne-prone or congested, but you still want daily hydration
- You want a product that supports barrier health while helping manage breakouts
While the Propolis Day Cream is formulated to be non-comedogenic, if you have extremely sensitive or reactive skin it’s worth patch-testing first. It’s also best paired with a broad-spectrum SPF during the day to help protect against UV-induced stress and pigmentation.
