COSRX Snail Mucin - The Complete Lowdown!
Well, it seems that snails aren’t slow all the time. Through snail mucin or the snail secretion filtrate incorporated by COSRX in their skincare line, results are as quick as after application. COSRX has developed the COSRX Snail Mucin line that doesn’t stop in moisturizing your skin but protects it from moisture loss. Not only that, it improves skin's elasticity giving it anti-aging properties as well. But what everyone is loving is its capability to boost the regeneration of skin cells to repair damaged ones and leave your skin revitalized and healthy.
COSRX Snail Mucin Essence
The COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence features 96.3% Snail Secretion Filtrate to repair, hydrate and soothe damaged skin. It revitalizes your skin and reduces dryness and dullness caused by environmental stressors. It also protects your skin from further moisture loss leaving your skin glowing all day. Furthermore, snail mucin offers anti-aging benefits by restoring skin vitality to soften fine lines and wrinkles. It is a nourishing lightweight essence that is non-greasy and non-heavy when applied to the skin.
The COSRX Snail Mucin Essence also brightens the skin and enhances its natural glow. It helps in improving skin texture and fights off pigmentation. Also, the product consists of growth factors to trigger the growth of collagen and new skin cells. This process reduces fine lines too.
The COSRX Snail Mucin essence looks like it’s recommended for users with dry skin as it hydrates and soothes dehydrated skin. Some would say that it’s suitable for oily skin because snail mucin is the emollient ingredient but it could actually be used by various skin types including normal, oily, combination, dry and sensitive skin. It has a pH level of 6.5~1.0 and is fragrance-free and essential oil-free.
Lastly, the COSRX Snail Mucin Essence could help in repairing sun damage and other signs of aging.

Final Words
Everyone’s buzzing that it’s definitely worth a try but must remember that although COSRX does not harm snails to hasten the production of snail secretion filtrate, there’s still a considerable thought for these snails to be left alone in a dark room to have the snail mucin extracted. However, COSRX swears by not harming snails on these processes and if it doesn’t bother you at all, you might want to add these products to your cart.
