I've always loved skin care. Having sensitive & acne-prone combination skin for most of my teen years up to now, you'd understand my obsession;). That said, I'm always on the lookout for the latest products, ingredients or trends in caring for my temperamental skin. Let me tell you about my skin's new best friend, COSRX Snail Essence! =)
I've always thought that my skin care regimen was pretty decent. Every so often, I would add a new product or step just to jazz things up a bit. This time though, I wanted something that could moisturize my skin, brighten my old acne scars and improve my skin's overall texture. Since Korean skin care has become so popular these days, I decided to check Korean brands for my latest find.
Korean skin care brands are known for using unique, cutting-edge ingredients in their products. As I was surfing the internet for my options, most often, I would come across snail mucin. Snail mucin or snail secretion filtrate is known to have very powerful skin repairing qualities and is great for acne scars. Just like that, the COSRX Snail Essence had me at "Snail" =). There are more reasons why I love it and here are some of them:
- What's in it: The COSRX Snail Essence lists 96% snail secretion filtrate as its active ingredient. Snail mucin contains antioxidants, collagen, elastin & glycoproteins that strengthen and heal your skin. It is extremely moisturizing & repairs skin tissue, making it good for improving acne scars and other skin blemishes.
- Texture, Packaging & Size: The COSRX Snail Essence comes in a 100ml spray bottle. It has a thick, liquid consistency that SURPRISINGLY absorbs quickly into the skin and does not feel sticky. I thought my skin would be sticky & tacky after spraying it on. On the other hand, I really loved how my skin felt so smooth after letting my skin drink it in. Also, it doesn't clog my pores.
- Effectiveness & Price: I was scared of using the COSRX Snail Essence at first because of the strong concentration of snail mucin. I thought it might be too harsh on my skin. A week into using this essence, I noticed that my acne scars have started to become less noticeable. Since my skin was always sensitive, I was expecting some kind of bad reaction to my skin and more redness. I was pleasantly surprised that it did none of that. Instead, my skin was softer, smoother and calmer. I couldn't believe how something so potent could also soothe my skin at the same time! It's reasonably priced too!
