Is Snail Slime an Anti-Aging Secret?
The secret to softer, firmer and more hydrated skin.
The anti-aging power of snail extract was first recognized by Chilean snail farmers who noticed that their hands were visibly smoother and cuts seemed to heal quicker after handling snails.
It was then discovered that snail extract, formally referred to as snail mucin or snail secretion filtrate, is packed with a bevy of anti-aging ingredients like hyaluronic acid, mucopolysaccharides and peptides. Translation: using snail slime should give you softer, smoother skin with a firmer appearance.
Korean cosmetic companies first caught onto this unique discovery and formulated it for skincare. K-beauty users can make a product an overnight success if they see results, so it’s no surprise K-beauty favourites like snail creams have slid into the skincare scene.
Bringing transformative anti-aging benefits in the formation of collagen and elastin, as well as repairing damaged skin and restoring hydration, snail slime products now boast a cult following worldwide.
