COSRX Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence Review

I used to suffer from really bad acne and bumpy, textured skin all throughout high school. Then during my senior year, I was introduced to the infamous COSRX Snail Mucin Essence. I gave it a try because my skin possibly couldn’t get worse and four years later, it was the best choice I ever made.

Ingredients

Their full ingredient list consists of:

Snail Secretion Filtrate, Betaine, Butylene Glycol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Sodium Polyacrylate, Phenoxyethanol, Sodium Hyaluronate, Allantoin, Ethyl Hexanediol, Carbomer, Panthenol, Arginine

To highlight:

• The snail mucin essence contains a whopping 96% of Snail Secretion Filtrate which provides rich hydration, helps improve skin barrier, and provides quick absorption
• It also contains 1,000 ppm of Sodium Hyaluronate which is known to plump, soothe, and hydrate the skin
• There is also no added fragrance or essential oils so it is sensitive skin friendly!

How To Use

Use it after cleansing and toning and before you use a moisturizer. I use 2-3 pumps through my face but it could differ depending on the user. I used this everyday, in the morning and the evening, as it’s very hydrating and provides a good plump base for underneath makeup.

Texture

The texture of the snail mucin is neither too thick or too runny. It is gooey and a bit slimy. It took me a bit to get used to the texture at first but what’s nice about this essence is that it doesn’t leave your face sticky after. It absorbs quickly and leaves your face feeling smooth and hydrated.

Final Verdict on the Snail Mucin Essence – the Results

I highly recommend this essence! After using it for four years, I can definitely say I have seen immense results and can testify that it works. My skin looks overall healthier, brighter, glowy instead of oily, and the texture from my face has completely disappeared, except for a little on my chin. My makeup sits a lot better on my face and I even get so many compliments on my skin (my high school self would have never guessed). I highly recommend it for those trying to heal their sensitive skin suffering from texture, acne, and damaged skin barrier. With consistency, time, and the right products with the right, gentle formula (like the COSRX snail mucin), I’m sure you too can start your journey to better, healthier skin.
