Propolis can also inhibit the re-formation of spots, and expel the formed melanin through microvessels, making the skin fair and delicate.

Propolis can beautify and protect skin.
Skin health is the premise of beauty. The main structural components of skin are collagen and elastin, but collagen and elastin are vulnerable to free radicals and other oxides, so skin health can be maintained by scavenging free radicals. Because propolis contains VE and other substances, it has a certain effect of scavenging free radicals, but because of its low content, its skin care effect is not significant. Therefore, it is suggested to maintain skin health by taking nutritional supplements such as grape seed, VC and VE. Grape seeds contain anthocyanins, which can reduce free radicals into harmless substances, and VC and VE also have such effects, so they can all play the role of beauty and skin care.
What is propolis?
As we all know, honey, bee pollen and royal jelly in bee products have a good cosmetic effect. Eating these bee products will have a good cosmetic effect. What's more, honey, bee pollen or royal jelly can be used as a mask or directly applied, and propolis can also be used as a cosmetic? Propolis is a fragrant colloidal mixture, which is made of resin collected by bees from flower buds, bark or trunk of plants, mixed with frontal gland secretions, beeswax and a small amount of pollen. Scientists have found that propolis is rich in many cosmetic ingredients, such as ferulic acid, various enzymes, flavonoids, antibiotics, vitamins, unsaturated fatty acids and trace elements. "Propolis beauty" is to delay aging and care for the skin through oral or external use of propolis or propolis products.
Precautions in the use of propolis
Propolis used for beauty is nothing more than oral administration and external application. Oral administration refers to taking propolis products, such as propolis capsules approved by the US Food and Drug Administration in the market. Pay attention to the dosage according to the product instructions. A very small number of weak people will be thirsty after taking it, so they should drink more boiled water or take less, and gradually adjust. People who are allergic to oral propolis capsules, such as dyspnea, night sweats, nausea, etc., can heal themselves quickly after stopping taking the drug. If the allergic symptoms are extremely serious, you should go to the hospital for treatment. While taking propolis, other aspects should also pay special attention to:
1, ensure adequate sleep, sleep for 8 hours. Because human epidermal cells are made from 1 1 to 2 am, if you don't sleep during this time, the metabolism of epidermal cells will be affected, and dark circles and bags under the eyes will easily appear.
2. A reasonable diet. Eat more foods rich in vitamins, such as milk, fresh vegetables and fruits. These substances can make skin tender, fair and wrinkle-free; Drink plenty of water, at least 6-8 glasses of water a day, which helps to relieve wrinkles on your face; Quit smoking and drinking, because smoking is an important factor that causes dark spots, freckles and wrinkles.
3. Avoid direct sunlight. Because ultraviolet rays can aggravate chloasma and freckles, you can apply sunscreen before going out.
