Great for dry skin!

I have very dry skin and this product has added so much moisture back into it. I replace my hyaluronic acid serum with this stuff in my skincare routine and I can definitely see and feel a difference! Would highly recommend to anyone with dry skin or looking for a little added moisture!

Worth it!

I’ve been seeing this product all over the place including tiktok And was super intrigued. I’ve only been using it a few days but it really does make my skin feel amazing and looks fresh and dewy!

Quality Product!

This is my first snail mucin product and I am very pleased with it. I use it twice daily. Just so you know, it is highly concentrated, so you only need a very small amount. If you pump out too much for your face by accident, spread it on your neck. It feels good anywhere!I also use its excellent sister product, AHA/BHA Clarifying Treatment Toner twice a day. I find this brand, COSRX, to have exceptional products.

Love the way this makes my skin feel!

I was skeptical of all the hype for snail mucin but this product has been great! I really like the way it makes my skin feel… it’s incredibly soft! My one complaint (and reason for 4 stars instead of 5) is that it does take some time to absorb and you have to wait a while (at least 20 minutes) before applying makeup, otherwise it sort of “clumps up” and peels off. Overall though, definitely a great addition to my skin care routine!

I’ve been using this daily for 7 years

I LOVE this product. I was introduced to it by a co-worker back in 2017 and I haven’t looked back. This co-worker didn’t have great skin (age 29), and then she started coming in looking better, and better. Her skin was becoming supple, even, and radiant. I asked her what changed and she said she had been using this product. So the entire office got it (she looked that good). It’s my holy grail…I have naturally dry skin, so it keeps my skin supple…even in the dry desert heat that I now live in. I use it every morning and evening after toning with a rose water toner.

Smooth skin

My skin been drying up lately and adding this to my routine healed some part of it. Making my face smooth was a bonus. Not sure if I am using it correctly, but I did 2 pumps on the back of my hand and used 2 fingers tap it onto my face to even out the products. Feels oily on face but it is light enough that I don’t notice it after a while as it dries up.

I am not sure if it is doing anything

I give this five stars but that is because so far it seems pretty gentle on my skin and it feels wonderful when I put it on. I don’t mind the slick slimy feel of it at all because I don’t have that sort of hang up about lotions, creams, serums. What I do care about is whether its gentle, and if it helps at all. I just can say whether it is helping my skin or not, but it doesn’t seem to be hurting either. Whether I will buy more in the future is anyone’s guess.

YES, great product

I love COSRX snail mucin products. They are perfect for my dry, 45 year old skin. I use this combined with the All in One cream as the base layer before any of my other products. They are excellent together and give my skin a really flawless feeling that other moisturizers can’t match.

Ignore that is made from snails. This stuff works!

I’ve used this on/off for several years now, long before it soared in popularity. I remember a makeup artist asking me what I used and whatever it was to keep using it. This was the difference adding it to my routine.It helps so much with hydration and doesn’t interfere with makeup.My routine is simple – cleanse, snail mucin, moisturizer. This is the routine most days of the week.

Game Changer for Red Patches & Pigmentation/Good for Gua Sha

For the past several years I have had moderate redness on my cheeks and chin, even with using gentle cleansers and moisturizing. My mom has rosacea so it’s possible that’s in my genes. I always had to cover up this redness with concealer but it bummed me out that I didn’t feel confident without makeup on. Fast forward to buying this product and using it for about a month– my inflammation/red patches are basically gone and my skin tone is so much more even! Another huge plus: because this product has drastically reduced the inflammation, it has also reduced the appearance of the red pigmentation from my acne scars. They look WAY less pronounced now and I’m amazed! Using this product has really increased my confidence when leaving the house without makeup. My skin looks healthier and is more moisturized. It is also an excellent addition to my morning gua sha routine because of its slippery texture. I use the product twice a day on my face and neck and am SO happy it has made such a difference in my skin… Buy it!!

Magic?

I started using this after accidentally using my son’s face cleanser which has an ingredient that I’m allergic to. My face was irritated for weeks- it finally began to heal as soon as I started using this. Not heavy at all and it works so well that I’m ok with and have come to fully accept the fact that it’s not made from sunshine and rainbows 😉 Feels like a little moisture shield that keeps the world off my face… and the bottle lasts forever. I bought 3 but had one shopped from my cabinet by 16 yr old daughter. However, I still have yet to hit the halfway mark on bottle #1… it truly lasts so long since it doesn’t take much to get the job done. 10/10

Significant improvements always have on hand

I have maturing skin, lines, wrinkles, sagging, frown lines, discoloration. I was using another big brand, had been for a few years and I was no longer seeing benefits. My daughter was already using Corsx and was educated on it so I decided to try it. I started out with a small travel bottle to try. I fell in love with the improvements I began to see within a few days. Now I am on this bottle I ordered but it’s been 5 months now I have been using this 99% of the time in my skincare routine twice a day. It’s a little slimy like texture, but always so cooling when first applied helping your skin to feel instantly refreshed. My maturing skin is definitely improving. So bye to HH, hello Corsx. I look forward to trying other Corsx products as well. I use two squirts right after toner, making sure your skin is still wet and lightly pat the mucin onto your face and neck. I waited to post because I believe in giving a product a fair amount of time to see ultimate benefits. Very affordable professional skin care that does NOT disappoint.

Try it

I was skeptical like I always am with most products: however, this product is great. I have sensitive skin and it was fine. Helped even my skin and remove the grey ruddiness in my skin. No smell at all. I’m very pleased with this product and will try the other products they have to offer as well.

My K-Beauty Routine

At 32 I had stubborn hormonal acne and dry flaky skin (thanks in part to the dry climate in Colorado) I was tired of constantly fighting my skin and embarked on a journey to get the clear youthful skin I deserved. I was pleased to find that the skin of my dreams in a Korean beauty inspired routine. The best part is that nearly all the products I tried were relatively inexpensive and readily available from amazon. My acne is non-existent now and the tone and texture of my skin is so supple and smooth. I have provided a list of my routine below which includes this product. I’m not saying this is the best or only way to achieve my results, I just thought others would be interested in what I used.*indicates review for this productAM- hydrating, lightweight, works under makeupCleanser –

BOOTS Botanics All Bright Gentle Cleansing Cream

(purchased from Ulta for a fraction of the price $6.99)First Toner-

Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Aloe, Herbs and Rosewater, 4 oz.

– $7.00 – This is like a drink of water for your face. I love this stuff and will spray again randomly throughout the day whenever I need a refresher. The aroma is a little strong for my liking but (almost like perfume) but I’m willing to overlook since the rose and aloe does so much for my skin. I used to use just straight rose water which has a very present smell but I like the spray delivery of this product better.Moisturizing Toner-

[Skin Food] Premium Avocado Rich Toner 180ml

–$12.98 – I can’t say enough about this. It’s a nice thick toner much more substantial that the western watery toners I was used to. The smell of this is very bright and green (that’s the best way I can think of to explain it) I love the smell! Every now and then I will smell it on my face and it gives me an invigorating boost. This toner works well to moisturize and calm my skin and will certainly be re-purchasing. A little goes a long way with this stuff so that won’t be for quite some time!Treatment-

Body Merry Hyaluronic Acid Serum for Anti-aging with Vitamic C and Natural Green Tea, 2 Oz

– $13.99 – I use this during the day to keep my skin feeling hydrated and give my skin the boost of anti-oxidants to help combat ageing. This is a lightweight serum (which is why I use it under my makeup) but it does take some time to fully absorb in and dry on my skin. After I put this on I generally go and have breakfast before coming back to finish. The aroma leans more towards green tea which again I find refreshing for the morning. The syrup is a milky and slightly viscous with minimal stickiness.Eye Cream-

Loreal Revitalift Eye Cream 0.5 Ounce (14ml)

(14ml) – (Purchased from Ulta)Face Cream-

[MIZON] Snail Recovery Gel Cream 45ml (1.52 fl.oz.) Pack of 2

– $9.99/ 2-pack – Lightweight moisturizer which works perfectly under makeup. This product doesn’t’ have much of a smell. The consistency is unique halfway between a gel and a cream. Glides on smoothly and provides a decent amount of hydration when combines with my other hydrating products. I don’t like to use occlusive products during the day and this moisturizer fits the bill.PM-all about Snail- Repair, Hydrated, MoisturizeMakeup Remover-

Boots Botanics All Bright Soothing Eye Make-up Remover 5 oz.

– Purchased at Ulta for a fraction of the price – $6.99Double Cleanse –

[Total 2Pcs] The Face Shop Rice Water Bright Cleansing Oil + Foam SET

–$14.21 – The oil cleanser feels light and silky. At night, I massage 1 pump into my skin and works well to dissolve the days make-up. Once I am done breaking down all the makeup, I use water to get some of it off before moving to the foam cleanser. My only complaint is that the fragrance is a little strong and can burn my eyes if I’m not careful. It leaves my skin feeling soft and clean. The foam cleanser works well to clean off the oil left on my face. The foam cleanser aroma is a lot more tolerable to me. It comes out of the tube a shimmery white color and is Very gentle. These two cleansers work well to get my face clean and ready for treatments without that typical tight feeling. They leave my skin soft and moisturized.Exfoliation –

Olay Regenerist Microdermabrasion & Peel System Microdermabrasion Treatment 1 Kit

– $21.99 – one a week – I used to use philosophy’s microderm kit but this one offers the same exact results for 1/2 of the price. This exfoliator leaves my skin feeling baby soft but it does seem a tad harsh so I don’t like to use it too frequently. I love the fresh citrus smell of the crystals and the warming foaming action once you put on the activator. Since I only use this once a week it lasts for a VERY long time and is totally worth the price.Toner-

[Skin Food] Premium Avocado Rich Toner 180ml

–$12.98 I can’t say enough about this. It’s a nice thick toner much more substantial that the western watery toners I was used to. The smell of this is very bright and green (that’s the best way I can think of to explain it) I love the smell! Every now and then I will smell it on my face and it gives me an invigorating boost. This toner works well to moisturize and calm my skin and will certainly be re-purchasing. A little goes a long way with this stuff so that won’t be for quite some time!*Essence –

[Cosrx] Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence 100ml

– $15.85 – I only use this at night because it does leave bit of a film on my face which I find unpleasant under make up. It dries quickly and a single pump gives me enough to cover my whole face and neck. There is no smell to speak of but it does have a slimy snail-y texture ( it is 96% slime!) and can be a bit tacky once its all said and done. I have also used this on some iron burns to help it heal faster and minimize scaring with a lot of success.Treatment-

MIZON Snail Repair Intensive Ampoule – Anti Wrinkle – Multi Function Formula

– $11.43 – Anti Wrinkle – Multi Function Formula- Clear viscous liquid. Not nearly as slimy as the essence. No smell, absorbs quickly. I focus heavily on the snail products at night because I read that the copper peptides naturally contained in the snail canalter the effectiveness of the vitamin C and vice versa.Spot Treatment-

[MIZON] Acence Blemish Out Pink Spot 30ml

– $14.95 – Use only as needed – Works wonders to diminish blemishes overnight. I used this quite frequently when I first started but after a while using all these products I didn’t have any acne to speak of!Sheet Mask –

Dermal Korea Collagen Essence Full Face Facial Mask Sheet, 16 Combo Pack

– $10.40 – I use once a week. I know that sheet masks are the totally hot thing in Korean beauty but I don’t think they do much for me other than a relaxing home spa experience. I just don’t see that they provide much and probably will not be buying more.Eye Cream-

MIZON Korean Cosmetics Snail Repair Eye Cream, 1 Ounce

1 Ounce – $13.98 – Light weight, absorbs quickly. The container is quite generous and a little will go a long way. I think I will have this for a while! It doesn’t have any smell.Face Cream-

MIZON Black Snail All In One Cream, 2.40 Ounce

–$10.49 – Like all of the Mizon Snail products I have tried this is a very easy introduction into the world of snail skin care. It has minimum smell and lightweight texture. Minimal slime factor, you wouldn’t even know it was snail in a blind comparison. It has a off white color and a lightweight consistency. It doesn’t work wall as an occlusive if that’s what you want you may need to add a different moisturizer at night.Face Oils- I use a mixture of two oils applied at once:

Radha Beauty Rosehip Oil 4 oz – 100% Pure Cold Pressed Certified Organic

. – $13.95 – and

Radha Beauty Moroccan Argan Oil for Hair, Face & Skin 4 oz – USDA Organic 100% Pure Cold pressed Virgin Oil From Morocco – By Radha Beauty

–$12.95 – I like to use the oils last because I feel like it really seals everything in and provides moisture to last me through the night. The rosehip oil is very yellow orange so I wouldn’t recommend using during the day abut I do sometimes mix the Argan oil in with my foundation if I want a dewier look.

Try this!

I’ve used this twice a day for the last week and my skin looks AMAZING. I have sensitive skin and I’m always trying new serums to brighten and tighten without irritation. This is it. I know it sounds gross. But IT WORKS.

No Fragrance is a Win for me!

Haven ‘t used it enough to know if it works for wrinkles but I don’t care for the slimy texture, however, it dries nice with no sticky feel and most important, for me, no smell! I can’t stand all the fragrance so many of these products have, this has no noticeable smell.

Ethical hydration!

I did a lot of research via youtube and reddit to find a moisturizer that would be effective, which led me to snail mucin. But then I was worried about the ethics of using it, which is when I discovered this brand.The mucin is amazing for hydration, it keeps my skin from being dry and/or oily, and I also love that its gathered in an ethical way, so there’s so guilt to have good skin!

I think I like it…

I think I like this alright… it’s just an odd feeling. When I first put it on, it’s slimy & my skin tingles a little (nothing bad), then it dries & leaves my skin tacky feeling (don’t like that part so much). After washing my face the next morning, my skin is baby smooth (love that part!). I can tell that my VERY fine lines have plumped out after use. Skin has a little glow to it. It’s no match for fine lines (eyes, mouth) & deeper lines (11’s on the forehead). I really didn’t expect it to be, though. Overall, it’s pretty good.

Great serum

I finally broke down and bought this serum after seeing everyone on tik tok and you tube raving over it. I really feel like it’s very hydrating and also helps me with my premature wrinkles on my hands

Snail Gizz!!

Ever wondered what it’s like to have a snail trail on your face? Neither did I, but now I’m hooked! This snail cream is like giving your face a slow-motion spa day. My skin is glowing so much, people are starting to ask if I’ve discovered the secret to eternal youth or if I’ve just been slimed by a very stylish garden snail. Either way, I’m shining like a diamond in a sea of dullness. Highly recommend for anyone who’s ready to embrace their inner gastropod glamour!

Really works and no snails were harmed

This is a great brand and high quality product. Really helps keep your skin from drying out. The real test will be in the winter; my friend told me that it saved her skin last winter so I decided to give it a try.

Awesome

Love this product. So light but effective non greasy. Melts into the skin smoothly. I’m hooked now and a believer in snail muchin. Great pricing. No smell to it, non sticky perfect for under makeup application.
