I’ve been using cosRX snail mucin power essence for at 2 years. I’m almost 33. I have been using some form of retinol, vitamin C, niacinamide, and sunscreen since I was 21. I have been completely consistent since then. Over the last 2 years I have seen the best skin of my life.
Agree!!! It’s slow improvement but when a base layer in skincare or as an additive to exfoliants, or used on days when not using exfoliants…it’s a huge leg up in my overall skin health for sure!
At 32 years old, deciding to care about face care is different. I started with CeraVE am & pm moisturizer and some other various things. Gonna get some vitamin c serum, toner and this. Do my best to tackle this new routine/habit.
I use the CosRX snail essence underneath a damp/wet compressed sheet mask, after about 15 minutes I remove the mask, apply moisturiser then Aquaphor, and I wake up the next morning with soft, plump skin. It's my skin's weekly treat!
I’ve been using CosRX Snail Mucin products for over a year living in a dry climate with mature skin. In August of this year I was diagnosed with cancer and have been undergoing chemotherapy on the weekly for 2 months. Every time my care team sees me they comment how great my skin looks. I have to give a lot of credit to my skincare regimen. The texture isn’t a big deal as it doesn’t stay sticky after application. I won’t be giving it up anytime soon!
@@Beex848 Yes … I’ve been using these products for nearly a year prior to diagnosis. I find them to be very effective with no correlation between my diagnosis and the skincare I use. My cancer diagnosis has a very specific genetic causation so no worries there.
Love the COSRX essence! I'm 70 and it's been a game changer for my skin! Wrinkles and dark spots less noticeable. I used it after a biopsy when I wasn't healing well. Within 2 days the injury stopped "weeping". Best of all, I haven't had a single eczema outbreak since I started using it in July!
@@21972012145525hi, I've seen multiple people in the comment section with dust mite allergies saying it works great for them. You should always patch test though
@@lerularaHey, I got hyperpigmentation after RF microneedling( my skin gets HP after any kind of procedure). My doc gave me Kojic acid , hydroquinone. It does bleach the skin but also gave me redness. I started using this cream and it did wonders for my redness and hp. I can definitely see the difference. I would suggest use this if you are using any acids or tretenoin as they might irritate your skin. This will help to soothe and hydrate
I’m interested in it helping your hyperpigmentation. I have found it great for moisturizing but haven’t seen any lightening. I’ve just begun using though !
@isbilahariffin6500 - NO apologies needed. You're doing great! 👍 Dr. Maxfield, took Vaseline, it is used for many things, but in this video it's used to "slug". Slug- Using a petroleum jelly based product as the last part of your skincare routine(3 x wk) Because the topic of this video was Snail(aka-Slug) Mucin, Dr. Maxfield Slugged the "Slug." 🤣 Sounded much funnier when he said it🤭. Hopes this helped! 🙄✌️
As someone with eczema due to the damaged skin barrier, snail mucin really helps tremendously with the hydration. I like that it isnt greasy or sticky once it is applied. Makes my skin soft and it layers really well under sunscreen. Once u get past the gross factor, it really is a great product.
Hi! I have eczema as well, do you apply it on your body too or just face? I have been using it on my face and I love how hydrated I feel all day. But I was just recently wondering if I can apply it on my body too.
This video could not have come at a better time. I had surgery three weeks ago and my incisions, while healed, are at the itchy peeling skin stage. Aloe doesn’t stay long enough to help and I can’t exfoliate the area (stomach) yet. I do have a bottle of cosrx snail mucin 96 that didn’t do much for my oily face but I didn’t want to get rid of it because it is a great product. I just got up and put a dollop all over my stomach and the RELIEF. OMG. No more itching! I don’t want to claw my skin off! My skin actually feels good right now!
I'm highly allergic to dust mites (confirmed by allergy skin test) and yet CosRX snail mucin has had no detrimental effects on me! I use the essence and moisturizer daily!
I’ve been using snail mucin, primary Mizon since my 20s (also other brands) and it has done wonders for my combination skin. I’m almost 40 and no one would believe that. Obviously, genetics and diet play a factor but snail mucin plus spf 50 has really slowed the aging process to a snail crawl (pun intended).
So glad to see this! I have been using the Cosrx snail mucin for months. I am 68, lifelong acne prone skin and of course aging. I find the mucin is hydrating and does not irritate.
I have severe dust and mite allergy ever since i was a child. I started using the cosrx snail cream without the knowledge of the concerns with allergies reaction. Let me tell you, so far I have been completely fine. My skin is glowing and I have gotten compliments on how my face glows after using it.
Snail mucin helped erase acne marks on my cheeks and totally erased my pigmentation around mouth. I started with cerave face wash, cosrx snail mucin essence, ending with elf holy hydration moisturizer (I tried blue and violet both, they worked just fine) and Hawaiian tropic sunscreen in the morning 50+. That's all and my skin is glowing. I did this for 1 whole year where I had cystic acne due to PCOD and dry patches on sides of my mouth with itchiness and pain. It's worked wonders for my skin and repaired my skin barrier. TIP: Use it on eyes as well. It helps with dark circles. 😘
Same. I use the COSRX and it is the only thing that helped my hyperpigmentation on my checks and nose. I tried Musely and it didn’t do anything. This is one of my most favorite products.
@heeeq0I have found once it is rubbed into the skin the stickiness dissipates a bit. I haven’t had any issues with using moisturizer over the snail mucin I use.
THANK YOU for addressing the ethics of it! I have been looking to try snail mucin but was really concerned about whether it’s cruelty free, and couldn’t find many others talking about that. More excited to try it now!!!
I have used snail mucin creams for the last 8 years or so and I love them. They have different ones in local Asian markets at different price points. I have had the CosRx cream in the jar for a year now and I use it after exfoliating or when I need some extra hydration. It goes on sale at Ulta every once in a while. Thank you for the info!
Love the ingredient focused videos! Would definitely love a overrated/underrated video for ingredients that are more common in Korean and Japanese skincare products.
If you don't like the sticky mucus feeling of these products, I highly recommend the Peach Slices snail mucin toner. Has a consistency somewhere between a toner and an essence, no mucus feel, and it hydrates my skin SO well.
Don't know why those Korean brands made snail lineup so sticky, other specialized snail brands like Spain brand Endocare, and Chile brand Elicina products were never that slummy
This is the only ingredient that personally I would feel comfortable slugging. My skin never broke out even after multiple multiple layers of this stuff. It's that good. My skin has never been better.
It’s completely changed my skin and very quickly. My pores are smaller than they have been in years, my skin doesn’t get irritated or break out from it, and my barrier and hydration is improving like crazy I use the mucin anywhere that needs extra tlc!
I’m 64 years old and I still break out. My little friend from Brazil recommended Snail empoule. I ordered it off Amazon 80% snail slime. A month in now and I’m receiving compliments on my skin. They ask if I had something done. 😂 I did break out at first I backed off of daily use and gradually started using it 2 x day. I love the slime! 😂
Actually my friend used real snail slime in Brazil. Lol 😂 that was a hard no for me. There is a quite a few snail products on Amazon and I blindly pick one. Fortunately it worked for me. Its made by Mizon. Snail repair intensive Ampoule. ( which is a serum ) I’m a believer who knew snail slime would help with breakouts and wrinkles. 😁
Do you think this will also help with the wrinkles around the lips? I am 56y and I am struggling with this and I am trying so hard to take care of face
Snail mucin works better than premium skin care. I suffered from acne for 40 years and nothing worked until I started using snail mucin. Another good product is centella asiatica.
I have used COSRX snail mucin for over a year and I love it. For me personally the hydration from this product lasts longer than TO hylauronic serum. My skin used to be very dry. It’s now normal to dry, being drier more in Winter months. Thanks for your honest review.
Same. I use corsx too and my face always been smoother. It's amazing. I start with the small tube one for a few months and now transitioning into the big one.
Things that can feel stress of any kind, regardless of whether or not it's the same kind of stress as we experience, tend to reap negative health benefits from being stressed. It costs nothing to be compassionate. For example, this is why I dispatch fish that I catch by using Ike Jime. Less stress to the fish before it dies. It's proven that the cortisol lowers the quality of the meat, so I would wager that it hurts the fish itself and thus I care not to hurt it any more than I need to. @@RealSuccessForAll
Originally I thought the snail label was just poetic branding. Then I realized my skin was loving it. Then I realized it was actually snail slime. By that point I was already in.
It does improve scars. I’ve used Benton’s snail bee essence and their steam cream for 2 years straight after having post cystic acne scars (could be seen up close) but recently I’ve noticed that they are all gone. So, in my opinion it does work.
It honestly works wonders for my undereye puffiness, and depuffs my face in general. I tried taking snail mucin out of my routine numerous times over the years but kept bringing it back, my face is just not the same without it 😅
First time I tried this on my oily skin I thought ‘meh’ and preferred HA. Now I’m on Tretinoin and skin is much drier/dehydrated, I love it! Way better than HA and glad I rediscovered it 😊
I have this autoimmune condition where literally everything irritates my skin, except for snail mucin for some reason, it calms my skin like no other. Hence why my entire skin care routine in Snail themed ❤
When I first started looking into Korean skincare I came across Cosrx and their snail gel and it’s been a part of my routine for a couple years now. The past year I’ve also added the essence and I love both of them. The only time I get compliments on my skin is after I’ve put on the snail products. Also I have normal - oily skin and they are very hydrating without making my skin an oil slick.
I’ve been using the cosrx cream at night and the essence in the morning for over a year and I love it. It’s very healing and has helped with introducing Tretinoin to my skin routine. It heals up any pimples or skin irritation anywhere on my body. I got a rash on my chest from a allergy to self tanner and it cleared it up fast. It feels weird in your hands when you rub them together with it but once it’s on your face it feels like a regular moisturizer.
I've struggled with pretty severe acne for decades and have tried almost everything under the sun. I started using corsx 92 cream last year as my last evening skincare step to let it soak in overnight, and love it. Seems like it's really repaired my face's moisture barrier and balanced out my dry vs oily spots. I do still get some acne, but less, and my blemishes go away and heal faster. It's the only "trendy" skincare product I'm totally bought into.
I have been using the CosRx Snail Mucin products for about 3 years. I have been using mainly Korean skin care, too. I am 65 and have been told that i look like im in my 40s. I love the mucin, i slather it on every night on my face, neck, chest, arms, and hands. They also make an eye cream with peptides. Love this stuff.
The Cosrx Snail Mucin 92 All In One Cream is one of my holy grail moisturisers. I've gone through so many jars and tubes by now. In summer it's enough for me by itself, but in winter I love to put La Roche-Posay's Cicaplast Baume B5+ on top. My dehydrated acne-prone skin loves it
I am 73. I just started using CosRX snail essence as the first layer in my night regimen and in only one week I’ve seen a MARKED improvement in the hydration and texture of my facial skin. The result was so profound, I’m positive I am not imagining.
I am in love with the k beauty product Cosrx! No allergies, my skin has never felt better, looked better and dewy, glass what ever you want to call it, it works.
I’ve been using the CosRx for a few months and I love it. Very hydrating to my dry skin. It’s good to hear all the good things about Korean beauty. It’s on sale right now on Amazon. BTW, for the past year I’ve been using vitamin c and Olay retinol on my three year old TKR scars and they are much less noticeable.
I used one from a health food shop many years ago. Can’t say I rated it as a moisturiser however, when I burnt myself with boiling water on my leg it blistered and burst. The snail slime gel fixed it in less than three days and I take a while to heal normally . So On that score it was impressive!
@@20thcenturyrelic I already had aquaphor in . I tried it . It did nothing in fact I was concerned it was gong infected at one point . I had the snail slime in and thought sod it I’ll try that. Glad I did now. I also scar badly even with spots I’ll be left with dark marks . Not with this burn though
@@tanmayisurampudi6778 I have it on my underarms and groin. Benzoyl peroxide cleanser helped clear up my right underarm. Along with rx clindamycin topical solution. One day do the cleanser, one day do the topical. Everyday with the cleanser can be a bit irritating. Massage onto the area for one minute, let it sit for one min, rinse off for one minute. You can also reduce strength and/or frequency if it’s too irritating. Im curious as to how snail mucin would help hs though.
I ended up with LOTS of little bumps all over my face, then I tried a different brand and now I'm currently healing some big Cystic pimples.( I hadn't had a break out this bad in few years) when I stopped using it my skin got so ooo much better. I wanted to like it sooooo much, but it just wasn't for me. What my skin DOES love though is rice formulas.anything with fermented rice.
Some say that it is related to dust mite allergy. However. I don't experience irritation and instead soothing while using the cosrx96 snail mucin serum.
Cos de Baha snail mucin transformed my skin - I use it every night and utilize the Korean 7 skin method. My skin went from dry, dull, yucky to well moisturized and hydrated within a week. Fine lines and wrinkles have deft diminished over time. Definitely a winner for me.
I forgot how entertaining and knowledgeable your videos are!! I was wondering if you can please share a routine for acne prone skin? My daughter has been dealing with acne for years and it breaks my heart to see how much it affects her.
My daughter too! I know how they feel. I had terrible acne in my teens and 20's and it's devastating to your self esteem. Nothing helped mine but the thing that's helped my daughter is taking spironolactone and birth control.
Absolutely nothing (prescription or over the counter) had been able to calm down my red and irritated excema on my neck and ears until I tried snail mucin! In one day I saw improvement and in a week my neck and ears were free of any redness! I am sold!
This video put everything in perspective for me and answered my main question - this has been a super miracle product for many people with eczema BUT it gave me many big allergic reactions and unfortunately I had to stop using it. As a person with high dust allergy, it is my main trigger for my eczema, this would make a lot of sense as to why I had the same reaction to snail mucin. Thank you! ☺️
Seek help from a homoeopath re dust mite allergies - you can desensitize using the homoeopathic dust mite remedy and it is safe to do so. I am a medical doctor by background and while I practised I prescribed homoeopathy too. Now I help people with their health outwith the medical system. I love the way these guys just described the benefits of snail mucin it would be fab if you could address the dust mite allergy situation so you could use it! I have plenty other recommendations for helping with eczema along side but I could imagine due to its healing properties snail mucin would be potentially amazing if you could tolerate it fine.
I have been using Cosrx for years now and I've found that it is most hydrating if I dampen my skin first! I'm older now, but I used to get an occasional acne. The snail mucin healed any open sore or wound, so I have used it on my arms and legs, not just on my face. Some other moistuizers make me break out, but this doesnt! It does feel like there is a tightening effect. I use it twice a day, and after a shower all over my body!
I am not a huge fan of snail mucin, but I think it definitely has a place in skincare. I personally think it really does help with soothing skin irritation and aid in healing wounds, as long as you aren't allergic to snail. I often used the cosrx snail mucin essence on the bridge of my nose to soothe the irritation due to the weight of my glasses.
It was hard to get over the initial 'ick' factor but as someone with menopausal (dry, acne prone, sensitive) skin who uses Retin A, I've experienced remarkable results using the snail mucin from CosRX. I used to poo poo it but there's no denying there's a benefit. And the CosRX 96 cream lasts a very long time - so cost effective as well!
I've been cycling on and off this for years!!! It soooo calms my ruddy Irish fair skin and plumps it up, keeps it hydrated and fresh looking. Loved it before it was ever hyped or trending as those Korean ladies already knew this years ago. Try it, you'll like it! Love that the biology backs it up. Not surprised. Thx Docs, always informed and with humor! Skincare science and humor....the best!
I learned about snail mucin in Ecuador, year 2006. They sold creams, gels etc. at local indigenous markets. And I thought: never ever! These poor people have to use what you find in the Amazonas jungle so they use even snails 😂 At that time, nobody was talking about this ingredient. I still did not use it because I was afraid of animals suffering for my skin care.
This is a miracle product in my arsenal. I will never be without it. I am 61, and my sister said it was my fountain of youth. I live in the driest place known to man. I am allergic to dust mites, and I have no issue.
I love the CosRx all in one. Is moisturizing and doesn’t break me out. The slime texture is fine-not much worse than Neutrogena hydro boost cream. It lasts for a few seconds then feels just like normal cream.
I was a skeptic but this has completely changed my skin. The addition of this and investing in good quality sunscreen has completely cleared my skin. This is legitimately the first time in probably 15 years if not more that I haven't had consistent acne. The scarring is almost gone as well. The only time I've noticed any type of breakout since starting snail mucin has been when I'm on my period and even then its not every single month so I'll gladly take it. Personally I do like to use it on damp skin though.
Ive been using it for 3 weeks on and off in the morning only. I had this dark spot on my nose that i had been noticing getting bigger within the past 3 years. Yesterday i noticed something different about the texture in it. I tried scratching it and it definately was not peeling. Today i woke up to notice it was half the size and 50% lighter!!!! I can't wait to see what it will do with the other spots on my face🎉 i am in my late 40s with very oily skin. I love that it's so hydrating and doesn't feel heavy or sticky on my skin.
This stuff is good. I purchased it for my daughter who has some type of fungal rash on her chin fairly recently. Nothing else we used worked to clear the thing up. I purchased the snail mucin because I remembered when she was a baby I bought something online which was made by a chemist and it had snail mucin in it. She had this menacing rash on her face at the time and it was the only thing that worked for her skin. I use it too. I think it has good healing properties.
I find it incredibly hydrating. I use the cream one in the winter only. There's a Peach Slices version of a serum that is really lightweight and not slimy at all that I use in the warmer months. Great ingredient.
Why would you engage in research that involves a facial biopsy? As a participant in the multi-site tretinoin clinical trials, i did it to clear my acne! I still have the punch biopsy scar where my fine lines had been before the trial. That particular study concluded in the successful launch of Renova, a fact I discovered when I later opened a popular magazine and saw an advertisement featuring before and after photos of my eyes taken during the study!
I actually didn’t know that there was a risk of allergic reaction since I am allergic to dust mites. I also have rosacea and am super sensitive. I use the cosrx and love it!
I’ve been using the CosRx essence since 2018 and my skin loves it. I’ve slathered it on my kids sunburns and it’s dramatically reduced peeling. We also use it on cuts and my son’s eczema (with Aquaphor on top). The texture really is similar to aloe.
I bought it on a whim because it was on sale and had good reviews. I have super dry skin!! It’s been so good at hydrating my skin. Just started using so not sure of long term effects. But it’s definitely helped with my hydration.
Love Love LOVE COSRX!!!! Game changer for me! I knew it was good because my skin looked and felt so soft. But when I had compliment after compliment on my skin, I was hooked!
So happy you addressed the safety and ethical concerns regarding the snails. No matter how trendy or effective the product, that’s should be the most important consideration for people.
Please...Talk to us about the Aloe! I have a plant and don't really know what to utilize it for. Also, address the fact that many plans look like Aloe Vera and are not.
My skin loves this stuff. I just started retinoids and wanted to knock everything to basics but couldn’t let it go and it’s actually gone really well. My whole night routine for the last month this dry MN winter starting retinoids has been: -Cerave Hydrating Foaming Oil Clenser -Tretinoin .025 cream -cosrx snail 96 essence -cosrx 92 all-in-one cream -Cerave Healing Balm I have pretty reactive skin and have been super surprised how quickly my skin adjusted to nightly tret and I know it’s anecdotal but I swear slugging the slug has done me a good turn 🐌 ❤
I thought it was a joke at first, then I tried snail mucin. I love it!!! Acne scars have lightened, skin is healthier. It is now part of my daily routine. Slug the slug!
I've been using snail mucin for about a year now. And people look at me like I'm crazy when I tell them I put it on my face. But I love it! Especially after microneedling :)
Today is the first day I started using the Cosrx essence and moisturiser . I will surely come back and give my experience of these products. I have oily skin, acne prone, acne scars. I get severe acne on my jawline and I am 33 years old. Hoping for good results.
Growing up in Mexico in the 90's always heard about it being like a cure all your skin conditions type of cream. Now that I use it I finally get the hype.
Love the dad joke! Slug the slug! I have inflammatory acne, and you'd have to pry my snail mucin from my cold dead hands! I was FLOORED at how quickly it made my inflamed bumps heal. The decreased duration of inflammation directly translates to decreased depth of my inevitable hyperpigmentation. I love the Cosrx essence (96%) and the Mizon all-in-one cream (~40%).
I use Promoter Repair Cell Moisture from TOV also known as House of PLLA. It has PLLA, PGA Plant Collagen, 4GF and Snail Mucas Filtrate. I first use Caviplla then apply the Promoter Moisturizer. It gives the glass skin look that lasts all day! Skin feels so moist and soft. I'm 68 years wise and I must tell you - you need to try this. A game changer
I used a product from South America in early 2000’s and it definitely helped reduce my facial scars. Everyone pulled their faces when I mentioned what it was and family still joke about it now. 😂
I used snail mucin about 10 years ago and I couldn't see the difference or benefits on my skin. However, technology probably advanced since then so maybe I'll give it another try. Also, I was a lot younger. My skin wasn't in rough shape. I'll try a different brand this time around. I do think it does help with wound healing. Many years ago my dog jumped on my face and accidentally scratched my eye. I decided to apply the snail eye cream to test it and next day it was almost fully healed. I was impressed but wasn't sure if I owed it to that.
I use the essence daily and absolutely LOVE it! Thank god it doesn’t have any smell or fragrance, otherwise I might be grossed out by it. Now I swear by it, and will be repurchasing over and over.
I tried the cosrx snail mucin gel earlier this year and loved it. But I ran out controlled for a while. I got a tube of their lotion and started up again. I definitely notice an improvement in my skin when snail mucin is in my skin care regime
I’ve been using cosRX snail mucin power essence for at 2 years. I’m almost 33. I have been using some form of retinol, vitamin C, niacinamide, and sunscreen since I was 21. I have been completely consistent since then. Over the last 2 years I have seen the best skin of my life.

May I know the name of vitamin c and retinol.
Can you use snail mucin as a conductor for micro current devices?
At 32 years old, deciding to care about face care is different.
I started with CeraVE am & pm moisturizer and some other various things.
Gonna get some vitamin c serum, toner and this.
Do my best to tackle this new routine/habit.
So you are saying that using it with vitamin C or retinol is perfectly fine?
I use the CosRX snail essence underneath a damp/wet compressed sheet mask, after about 15 minutes I remove the mask, apply moisturiser then Aquaphor, and I wake up the next morning with soft, plump skin. It's my skin's weekly treat!

So glad to see this! I have been using the Cosrx snail mucin for months. I am 68, lifelong acne prone skin and of course aging. I find the mucin is hydrating and does not irritate.
I was so skeptical, but surprising it has made a HUGE difference in my skin! It’s a must now in my skincare for day/night routine.
I have severe dust and mite allergy ever since i was a child. I started using the cosrx snail cream without the knowledge of the concerns with allergies reaction. Let me tell you, so far I have been completely fine. My skin is glowing and I have gotten compliments on how my face glows after using it.
Should we have to later it with moisturizer
@ShaliniiDev I do vitamin c, snail musicin mostrizer and then sunscreen if its morning
Snail mucin helped erase acne marks on my cheeks and totally erased my pigmentation around mouth. I started with cerave face wash, cosrx snail mucin essence, ending with elf holy hydration moisturizer (I tried blue and violet both, they worked just fine) and Hawaiian tropic sunscreen in the morning 50+. That's all and my skin is glowing. I did this for 1 whole year where I had cystic acne due to PCOD and dry patches on sides of my mouth with itchiness and pain. It's worked wonders for my skin and repaired my skin barrier.
TIP: Use it on eyes as well. It helps with dark circles. 😘
Same. I use the COSRX and it is the only thing that helped my hyperpigmentation on my checks and nose. I tried Musely and it didn’t do anything. This is one of my most favorite products.
@heeeq0I have found once it is rubbed into the skin the stickiness dissipates a bit. I haven’t had any issues with using moisturizer over the snail mucin I use.
@@vchafabwhy is hyperpigmentation so hard to get rid of ?! Ugh
@heeeq0after it dries
Thanks for the tips. I use tret once a week, would you suggest tret let that dry then snail (which one 92 or 96??) then moisturizer last?
THANK YOU for addressing the ethics of it! I have been looking to try snail mucin but was really concerned about whether it’s cruelty free, and couldn’t find many others talking about that. More excited to try it now!!!
I have used snail mucin creams for the last 8 years or so and I love them. They have different ones in local Asian markets at different price points. I have had the CosRx cream in the jar for a year now and I use it after exfoliating or when I need some extra hydration. It goes on sale at Ulta every once in a while. Thank you for the info!
Love the ingredient focused videos! Would definitely love a overrated/underrated video for ingredients that are more common in Korean and Japanese skincare products.
If you don't like the sticky mucus feeling of these products, I highly recommend the Peach Slices snail mucin toner. Has a consistency somewhere between a toner and an essence, no mucus feel, and it hydrates my skin SO well.
Don't know why those Korean brands made snail lineup so sticky, other specialized snail brands like Spain brand Endocare, and Chile brand Elicina products were never that slummy
This is the only ingredient that personally I would feel comfortable slugging. My skin never broke out even after multiple multiple layers of this stuff. It's that good. My skin has never been better.
I’ve been using it for 6 years now. COMPLETELY changed my skin and made it perfect. Only thing that turned my acne prone skin into healthy skin
I have been wanted to use it but I don't know which product to get, which one did you use if you don't mind sharing?
@@isharana6925just get the ones that’s in the end of the video that they reccomend
@@isharana6925cosrx is quite good. The essence
@@isharana6925the face moisturizer. I have it too and it makes the skin feel plump.
What brand do you use???
It’s completely changed my skin and very quickly. My pores are smaller than they have been in years, my skin doesn’t get irritated or break out from it, and my barrier and hydration is improving like crazy I use the mucin anywhere that needs extra tlc!
IKR. Its lovely
Hey can u use it on your body as well or is it just for your face?
I’m 64 years old and I still break out. My little friend from Brazil recommended Snail empoule. I ordered it off Amazon 80% snail slime. A month in now and I’m receiving compliments on my skin. They ask if I had something done. 😂 I did break out at first I backed off of daily use and gradually started using it 2 x day. I love the slime! 😂
Does it have to be the snail from Brazil or would one from anywhere work?? Just curious. Thank you 😊
Actually my friend used real snail slime in Brazil. Lol 😂 that was a hard no for me. There is a quite a few snail products on Amazon and I blindly pick one. Fortunately it worked for me. Its made by Mizon. Snail repair intensive Ampoule. ( which is a serum ) I’m a believer who knew snail slime would help with breakouts and wrinkles. 😁
Do you think this will also help with the wrinkles around the lips?
I am 56y and I am struggling with this and I am trying so hard to take care of face
Snail mucin works better than premium skin care. I suffered from acne for 40 years and nothing worked until I started using snail mucin. Another good product is centella asiatica.
I have used COSRX snail mucin for over a year and I love it. For me personally the hydration from this product lasts longer than TO hylauronic serum. My skin used to be very dry. It’s now normal to dry, being drier more in Winter months. Thanks for your honest review.
Same.
I use corsx too and my face always been smoother. It's amazing.
I start with the small tube one for a few months and now transitioning into the big one.
Dry is a skin type you are born with. Dehydration is a condition.
Started to use it a week ago and my skin looks amazing, I’m shocked
I love it. Works way better than any moisturizer
@@yummymellon4058 I use the serum, haven’t tried the cream yet.
@3:00 thank you for explaining that they try not to harm the snails. That’s a very important point for me.
Who cares about snails.
True@@RealSuccessForAll
@@RealSuccessForAllI do very much!
Things that can feel stress of any kind, regardless of whether or not it's the same kind of stress as we experience, tend to reap negative health benefits from being stressed. It costs nothing to be compassionate. For example, this is why I dispatch fish that I catch by using Ike Jime. Less stress to the fish before it dies. It's proven that the cortisol lowers the quality of the meat, so I would wager that it hurts the fish itself and thus I care not to hurt it any more than I need to. @@RealSuccessForAll
Do u eat meat 😭😭
Originally I thought the snail label was just poetic branding. Then I realized my skin was loving it. Then I realized it was actually snail slime. By that point I was already in.
😂
Sameeee
That's how I feel about the whole placenta trend except I've never used it
@@skateata1placenta is awesome in hair conditioners & leave ins btw. Just saying in case you decide to try it
@@skateata1oh nope, for me ...hope that I don't go that far ..
It does improve scars. I’ve used Benton’s snail bee essence and their steam cream for 2 years straight after having post cystic acne scars (could be seen up close) but recently I’ve noticed that they are all gone. So, in my opinion it does work.
All type of scars? Depressed icepick scars too?
What is the difference between Benton snail serum and moisturiser? I too have cystic acne from time to time.. Which is better to use?
I am 51 and I love it. My skin changes after one week of using it. I don’t use my old serum at this time
It honestly works wonders for my undereye puffiness, and depuffs my face in general. I tried taking snail mucin out of my routine numerous times over the years but kept bringing it back, my face is just not the same without it 😅
Why would you want to take it out
Same
First time I tried this on my oily skin I thought ‘meh’ and preferred HA. Now I’m on Tretinoin and skin is much drier/dehydrated, I love it! Way better than HA and glad I rediscovered it 😊
I have this autoimmune condition where literally everything irritates my skin, except for snail mucin for some reason, it calms my skin like no other. Hence why my entire skin care routine in Snail themed ❤
Absolutely love CosRX 96 … best moisturizer ever for my 79 year old skin!!!
When I first started looking into Korean skincare I came across Cosrx and their snail gel and it’s been a part of my routine for a couple years now. The past year I’ve also added the essence and I love both of them. The only time I get compliments on my skin is after I’ve put on the snail products. Also I have normal - oily skin and they are very hydrating without making my skin an oil slick.
I’ve been using the cosrx cream at night and the essence in the morning for over a year and I love it. It’s very healing and has helped with introducing Tretinoin to my skin routine. It heals up any pimples or skin irritation anywhere on my body. I got a rash on my chest from a allergy to self tanner and it cleared it up fast. It feels weird in your hands when you rub them together with it but once it’s on your face it feels like a regular moisturizer.
Happy for you
I have both of these aswell. Just got tretinoin from my dermatologist and still don’t know how to incorporate it into my routine. How do you use them?
Do you use it under the tretnoin or over?
I use tret too, 0.05. I layer it, essence first, then the tret and then the moisturiser. That's been working well for me for the last 2 months.
@@glanzastarletman try increasing the tret strength then
I've struggled with pretty severe acne for decades and have tried almost everything under the sun. I started using corsx 92 cream last year as my last evening skincare step to let it soak in overnight, and love it. Seems like it's really repaired my face's moisture barrier and balanced out my dry vs oily spots. I do still get some acne, but less, and my blemishes go away and heal faster. It's the only "trendy" skincare product I'm totally bought into.
Dude.. Same. Most moisturizers tend to make shit worse for my acne but this one rocks. Still on the hunt for a sunscreen that won't break me out tho
@@jedrashidul6952same! Sunscreen always breaks me out!!
I have been using the CosRx Snail Mucin products for about 3 years. I have been using mainly Korean skin care, too. I am 65 and have been told that i look like im in my 40s. I love the mucin, i slather it on every night on my face, neck, chest, arms, and hands. They also make an eye cream with peptides. Love this stuff.
The Cosrx Snail Mucin 92 All In One Cream is one of my holy grail moisturisers. I've gone through so many jars and tubes by now. In summer it's enough for me by itself, but in winter I love to put La Roche-Posay's Cicaplast Baume B5+ on top. My dehydrated acne-prone skin loves it
Thank you for mentioning it's cruelty free, i appreciate that.
I am 73. I just started using CosRX snail essence as the first layer in my night regimen and in only one week I’ve seen a MARKED improvement in the hydration and texture of my facial skin. The result was so profound, I’m positive I am not imagining.
I am in love with the k beauty product Cosrx!
No allergies, my skin has never felt better, looked better and dewy, glass what ever you want to call it, it works.
I am allergic to dust mites and use the CoSRX with no problems at all....love it!
I’m always stunned by all the chemistry info. It’s really interesting!
I’ve been using the CosRx for a few months and I love it. Very hydrating to my dry skin. It’s good to hear all the good things about Korean beauty. It’s on sale right now on Amazon. BTW, for the past year I’ve been using vitamin c and Olay retinol on my three year old TKR scars and they are much less noticeable.
Im an Esthetitian and i love this ...ty snails..
I used one from a health food shop many years ago. Can’t say I rated it as a moisturiser however, when I burnt myself with boiling water on my leg it blistered and burst. The snail slime gel fixed it in less than three days and I take a while to heal normally . So On that score it was impressive!
@@20thcenturyrelic i doubt it.
@@20thcenturyrelic I already had aquaphor in . I tried it . It did nothing in fact I was concerned it was gong infected at one point . I had the snail slime in and thought sod it I’ll try that. Glad I did now. I also scar badly even with spots I’ll be left with dark marks . Not with this burn though
COSRX snail mucin essence has worked well for me on burns as well as wounds, seborrheic dermatitis, and general skin inflammation and irritation.
Of course Dr. Shah would appreciate the "dewiness" of the mucin and it's got to be cheaper than that expensive nectar product for post-procedure care.
way cheaper!
My dermatologist recommended snail mucin for my hidradenitis suppurativa 20+ years ago
Rightttt. My country made skincare with snail mucin more than 10 years ago. I was surprised it just got so popular now!
@@pins.5979 Elicina from Chile 😊
Did it work?
Hey, which part of your body do you have HS on? And do you apply it regularly on your body?
@@tanmayisurampudi6778 I have it on my underarms and groin. Benzoyl peroxide cleanser helped clear up my right underarm. Along with rx clindamycin topical solution. One day do the cleanser, one day do the topical. Everyday with the cleanser can be a bit irritating. Massage onto the area for one minute, let it sit for one min, rinse off for one minute. You can also reduce strength and/or frequency if it’s too irritating.
Im curious as to how snail mucin would help hs though.
I use Cosrx mucin 96% then the Cosrx Hyaluronic Creme and to top it off Vaseline at night! Works like a gem! ❤
I had an allergic reaction to snail mucin. It’s important to find out if you’re allergic or not before to apply it on your face
I'm having an allergic reaction right now...making my skin itchy
I ended up with LOTS of little bumps all over my face, then I tried a different brand and now I'm currently healing some big Cystic pimples.( I hadn't had a break out this bad in few years) when I stopped using it my skin got so ooo much better. I wanted to like it sooooo much, but it just wasn't for me. What my skin DOES love though is rice formulas.anything with fermented rice.
i had one turns out i was using it oo often i only use it 3 times a week now.
Same, I had redness and buffinies after using it
Some say that it is related to dust mite allergy. However. I don't experience irritation and instead soothing while using the cosrx96 snail mucin serum.
I am allergic to dust. I have eczema. I love my snail mucin.
Dust or dust mites?
Cos de Baha snail mucin transformed my skin - I use it every night and utilize the Korean 7 skin method. My skin went from dry, dull, yucky to well moisturized and hydrated within a week. Fine lines and wrinkles have deft diminished over time. Definitely a winner for me.
I forgot how entertaining and knowledgeable your videos are!! I was wondering if you can please share a routine for acne prone skin?
My daughter has been dealing with acne for years and it breaks my heart to see how much it affects her.
My daughter too! I know how they feel. I had terrible acne in my teens and 20's and it's devastating to your self esteem. Nothing helped mine but the thing that's helped my daughter is taking spironolactone and birth control.
@@amyg8761 , thank you 🙏
Absolutely nothing (prescription or over the counter) had been able to calm down my red and irritated excema on my neck and ears until I tried snail mucin! In one day I saw improvement and in a week my neck and ears were free of any redness! I am sold!
This video put everything in perspective for me and answered my main question - this has been a super miracle product for many people with eczema BUT it gave me many big allergic reactions and unfortunately I had to stop using it. As a person with high dust allergy, it is my main trigger for my eczema, this would make a lot of sense as to why I had the same reaction to snail mucin. Thank you! ☺️
Seek help from a homoeopath re dust mite allergies - you can desensitize using the homoeopathic dust mite remedy and it is safe to do so. I am a medical doctor by background and while I practised I prescribed homoeopathy too. Now I help people with their health outwith the medical system. I love the way these guys just described the benefits of snail mucin it would be fab if you could address the dust mite allergy situation so you could use it! I have plenty other recommendations for helping with eczema along side but I could imagine due to its healing properties snail mucin would be potentially amazing if you could tolerate it fine.
Love Cosrx essence. Layers really well with sunscreen and cosmetics

Bro it was trending 2 years ago too. I dont understand how these fads fade in and out of popularity without everyone realizing we already did this 😅
I have been using Cosrx for years now and I've found that it is most hydrating if I dampen my skin first! I'm older now, but I used to get an occasional acne. The snail mucin healed any open sore or wound, so I have used it on my arms and legs, not just on my face. Some other moistuizers make me break out, but this doesnt! It does feel like there is a tightening effect. I use it twice a day, and after a shower all over my body!
I am not a huge fan of snail mucin, but I think it definitely has a place in skincare. I personally think it really does help with soothing skin irritation and aid in healing wounds, as long as you aren't allergic to snail. I often used the cosrx snail mucin essence on the bridge of my nose to soothe the irritation due to the weight of my glasses.
"I SLUGGED THE SLUG!!" I just love you guys 😂❤
It was hard to get over the initial 'ick' factor but as someone with menopausal (dry, acne prone, sensitive) skin who uses Retin A, I've experienced remarkable results using the snail mucin from CosRX. I used to poo poo it but there's no denying there's a benefit. And the CosRX 96 cream lasts a very long time - so cost effective as well!
I've been cycling on and off this for years!!! It soooo calms my ruddy Irish fair skin and plumps it up, keeps it hydrated and fresh looking. Loved it before it was ever hyped or trending as those Korean ladies already knew this years ago. Try it, you'll like it! Love that the biology backs it up. Not surprised. Thx Docs, always informed and with humor! Skincare science and humor....the best!
I learned about snail mucin in Ecuador, year 2006. They sold creams, gels etc. at local indigenous markets. And I thought: never ever! These poor people have to use what you find in the Amazonas jungle so they use even snails 😂 At that time, nobody was talking about this ingredient. I still did not use it because I was afraid of animals suffering for my skin care.
Its cruelty free, the cosrx one I think
This is a miracle product in my arsenal. I will never be without it. I am 61, and my sister said it was my fountain of youth. I live in the driest place known to man. I am allergic to dust mites, and I have no issue.
I love the CosRx all in one. Is moisturizing and doesn’t break me out. The slime texture is fine-not much worse than Neutrogena hydro boost cream. It lasts for a few seconds then feels just like normal cream.
I was a skeptic but this has completely changed my skin. The addition of this and investing in good quality sunscreen has completely cleared my skin. This is legitimately the first time in probably 15 years if not more that I haven't had consistent acne. The scarring is almost gone as well. The only time I've noticed any type of breakout since starting snail mucin has been when I'm on my period and even then its not every single month so I'll gladly take it. Personally I do like to use it on damp skin though.
With one do you use ?
@hdw1113 My Walmart sells the Cosrx brand so I've stuck with that one.
Love Coserx snail mucin.I have used for years.After my husband had Mohs and reconstructive neck and facial surgery, he used it and is also hooked.
Ive been using it for 3 weeks on and off in the morning only. I had this dark spot on my nose that i had been noticing getting bigger within the past 3 years. Yesterday i noticed something different about the texture in it. I tried scratching it and it definately was not peeling. Today i woke up to notice it was half the size and 50% lighter!!!! I can't wait to see what it will do with the other spots on my face🎉 i am in my late 40s with very oily skin. I love that it's so hydrating and doesn't feel heavy or sticky on my skin.
This stuff is good. I purchased it for my daughter who has some type of fungal rash on her chin fairly recently. Nothing else we used worked to clear the thing up.
I purchased the snail mucin because I remembered when she was a baby I bought something online which was made by a chemist and it had snail mucin in it. She had this menacing rash on her face at the time and it was the only thing that worked for her skin.
I use it too. I think it has good healing properties.
I find it incredibly hydrating. I use the cream one in the winter only. There's a Peach Slices version of a serum that is really lightweight and not slimy at all that I use in the warmer months. Great ingredient.
Thanks for reviewing this topic! Still not sure I'll be doing it any time soon but now I feel more knowledgeable if I want to in the future 😄
Why would you engage in research that involves a facial biopsy? As a participant in the multi-site tretinoin clinical trials, i did it to clear my acne! I still have the punch biopsy scar where my fine lines had been before the trial. That particular study concluded in the successful launch of Renova, a fact I discovered when I later opened a popular magazine and saw an advertisement featuring before and after photos of my eyes taken during the study!
The punch biopsy is by your eyes?!
I actually didn’t know that there was a risk of allergic reaction since I am allergic to dust mites. I also have rosacea and am super sensitive. I use the cosrx and love it!
Dr. Shaw, I just saw you yesterday on a Paula's Choice commercial...congrats and it's about time they recognized!!
I’ve been using the CosRx essence since 2018 and my skin loves it. I’ve slathered it on my kids sunburns and it’s dramatically reduced peeling. We also use it on cuts and my son’s eczema (with Aquaphor on top). The texture really is similar to aloe.
@@aria_1010maybe u could try at a nykaa store?
You need to use it on a wet face! I absolutely love it , it is so good when your face is sensitive due to retinol or sunburn , I use it everyday
I bought it on a whim because it was on sale and had good reviews. I have super dry skin!! It’s been so good at hydrating my skin. Just started using so not sure of long term effects. But it’s definitely helped with my hydration.
Love Love LOVE COSRX!!!! Game changer for me! I knew it was good because my skin looked and felt so soft. But when I had compliment after compliment on my skin, I was hooked!
Im a Korean. SNAIL skin products have been so popular for so long in korea and the world is just getting to know it
.. .. enjoy it!
Same anecdotal evidence as many in the comments, I am quite allergic to dust mites and my skin loves the snail mucin!
Thank you for doing this particular video . Way over due !!!
COSRX does the 92 in a tube now, way easier and less messy to use than the jar. I love it, it makes my skin look & feel amazing
So happy you addressed the safety and ethical concerns regarding the snails. No matter how trendy or effective the product, that’s should be the most important consideration for people.
Cosrx snail products are incredible to heal the wounds after micro needling, love it so so much!
Please...Talk to us about the Aloe! I have a plant and don't really know what to utilize it for. Also, address the fact that many plans look like Aloe Vera and are not.
My skin loves this stuff. I just started retinoids and wanted to knock everything to basics but couldn’t let it go and it’s actually gone really well. My whole night routine for the last month this dry MN winter starting retinoids has been:
-Cerave Hydrating Foaming Oil Clenser
-Tretinoin .025 cream
-cosrx snail 96 essence
-cosrx 92 all-in-one cream
-Cerave Healing Balm
I have pretty reactive skin and have been super surprised how quickly my skin adjusted to nightly tret and I know it’s anecdotal but I swear slugging the slug has done me a good turn 🐌 ❤
I thought it was a joke at first, then I tried snail mucin. I love it!!! Acne scars have lightened, skin is healthier. It is now part of my daily routine. Slug the slug!
I've been using snail mucin for about a year now. And people look at me like I'm crazy when I tell them I put it on my face. But I love it! Especially after microneedling :)
Today is the first day I started using the Cosrx essence and moisturiser . I will surely come back and give my experience of these products. I have oily skin, acne prone, acne scars. I get severe acne on my jawline and I am 33 years old. Hoping for good results.
Growing up in Mexico in the 90's always heard about it being like a cure all your skin conditions type of cream. Now that I use it I finally get the hype.
This is exactly the information I was looking for regarding snail mucin. Also so much fun to watch. Love your videos. Thanks!
Love the dad joke! Slug the slug! I have inflammatory acne, and you'd have to pry my snail mucin from my cold dead hands! I was FLOORED at how quickly it made my inflamed bumps heal. The decreased duration of inflammation directly translates to decreased depth of my inevitable hyperpigmentation. I love the Cosrx essence (96%) and the Mizon all-in-one cream (~40%).
I use Promoter Repair Cell Moisture from TOV also known as House of PLLA. It has PLLA, PGA Plant Collagen, 4GF and Snail Mucas Filtrate. I first use Caviplla then apply the Promoter Moisturizer. It gives the glass skin look that lasts all day! Skin feels so moist and soft. I'm 68 years wise and I must tell you - you need to try this. A game changer
I used a product from South America in early 2000’s and it definitely helped reduce my facial scars. Everyone pulled their faces when I mentioned what it was and family still joke about it now. 😂
What was it
@@scrumptious9673 Elicina
I used snail mucin about 10 years ago and I couldn't see the difference or benefits on my skin. However, technology probably advanced since then so maybe I'll give it another try. Also, I was a lot younger. My skin wasn't in rough shape. I'll try a different brand this time around. I do think it does help with wound healing. Many years ago my dog jumped on my face and accidentally scratched my eye. I decided to apply the snail eye cream to test it and next day it was almost fully healed. I was impressed but wasn't sure if I owed it to that.
I use the CosRX snail mucin, and it keeps my dry skin very, very hydrated. I love it and will continue to use it.
I use the essence daily and absolutely LOVE it! Thank god it doesn’t have any smell or fragrance, otherwise I might be grossed out by it. Now I swear by it, and will be repurchasing over and over.
I tried the cosrx snail mucin gel earlier this year and loved it. But I ran out controlled for a while. I got a tube of their lotion and started up again. I definitely notice an improvement in my skin when snail mucin is in my skin care regime
