Frequently asked

How do I use snail mucin essence in my routine?

Apply it to clean, slightly damp skin after toner and before your serums and moisturizer. A few drops cover the face, and the 100 ml bottle usually lasts three to four months with daily use.

Can I use snail mucin with retinol or vitamin C?

Yes. Snail secretion filtrate is a hydrating ingredient rather than a competing active, and many people layer it under a retinoid to make it feel more comfortable. If your skin is already irritated, space the products out morning and night.

Is snail mucin essence okay for oily or acne-prone skin?

The texture is lightweight and mostly water-based, so oily and combination skin generally do fine with it. Patch test on a small area for a few days if you break out easily.

Does COSRX snail essence feel sticky?

It has a slippery, gel-like slip that sinks in within a minute or two. Using a smaller amount and pressing it in keeps it from feeling tacky under later layers.
