COSRX Snail Mucin 96% Power Repairing Essence 3.38 fl.oz 100ml, Hydrating Serum for Face with Snail Secretion Filtrate for Dull Skin & Fine Lines, Korean Skin Care

An absolute staple in my skin care routine and has been for a while.
Absolutely love this stuff. It’s not thick or smelly and I put it on after my serum and moisturizer. You can put it on anytime and it doesn’t feel greasy. I have combination skin that is more mature and i’ve been using it for about two years. I also started using their moisturizer and my face has never been so soft. These are completely comparable with some of the most expensive products on the market and definitely worth a shot. I know there’s a bunch of stuff out there, but honestly, they all have the same things really. This is Korean skin care and in my opinion works the best on more fair skin.I would say it’s comparable to the Clinique dramatically, different yellow, moisturizing lotion and as gentle, but way cheaper and not greasy. I let my nine year-old use it and I think it’s a great light moisturizer.

Retinol is nice! The essence is fine.
I liked using the retinol! I didn’t start out using it very often (like ~1 per week), but my skin seemed to tolerate it well (no irritation, no purging). The bottle is just very small and there’s not that much retinol in there. But I think it’s a nice ‘beginner’ retinol if it’s something you want to try but don’t want to commit to a really expensive/large amount!There is sooo much essence compared to the amount of retinol. It seems moisturizing when you first apply it, but I’m not sure it really added anything substantial to my daily skincare routine. So for these reasons, I think the essence is just fine (relatively cheap, but not a holy grail item). I think my fall/winter moisturizers still did the heavy-lifting when it came to providing all-day or all-night moisture protection to my skin. However, the essence itself is kinda fun. The texture is interesting. Sort of slimy at first but then it rubs in just fine. I do think you still need a moisturizer after applying the essence because there’s kind of a weird texture sometimes with the essence (smooth and sort of leftover stickiness? idk, it goes away once I add a normal moisturizer on top). This did not put me off but maybe it’ll be an issue for others. I cycle through different skincare routines depending on my skin needs so I’m still trying to get through my 2 bottles! I bought this back in October 2023 and I’m still on my first bottle.

Skincare
I have been using this product for years and I never go without it. It’s great for my skin and it makes my skincare routine more enjoyable easily applies. Hydrating and great quality a nice formula it’s thick enough that it doesn’t run out of your hands

Great for Hydration, But a Little Sticky
I’ve been using this product for a few months now, and it’s been excellent for hydrating my skin and reducing fine lines. My dull skin looks brighter, and the texture has improved. The stickiness isn’t a problem for me because I use it at bedtime. It absorbs well overnight and leaves my skin feeling smooth in the morning. Overall, it’s a great addition to my skincare routine, and I’d recommend it if you’re looking for skin repair and hydration.

I honestly love it and i think its very effectiveI use it every day after I apply my moisturizer because my moisturizer alone wasn’t enough. Now my face is well hydrated and looking plumpy.It has zero scent whatsoever! And the skin absorbs it so fast so even if it feels sticky at first, in a minute you won’t feel it on your face anymore and you can continue your facial skin routine or put makeup
