Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence

$16.45

Applying snail mucus to your skin may seem gross to people in the Western world, but it is an ingredient that Korean skincare swears by for achieving that dewy, glass skin. And it works! My skin has never looked better.

This essence comes in a gel pump and nearly bursts into the water as soon as you rub it in. However, the ultra-hydrating formula does take a little while to sink into the skin, so you may have to be patient. The wait is totally worth pampering your skin with this essence, though.

CosRx's product is so versatile that you can layer it with different active ingredients, such as vitamin C, retinol, AHA, BHA, and more. I always use this snail mucin to prep my skin for any skincare routine. I can't get over how it makes my skin so clear and glowing!
