Originating from South Korea, snail slime is a popular skin care ingredient that has recently made its way over to the Western skin care industry. Yes, you read that correctly: snail slime! Before you dismiss the idea of using snail slime on your skin, you may want to consider some of the benefits a snail cream can provide. For instance, a snail cream is purported to calm inflammation, promote skin regeneration, deeply moisturize, and give your skin a dewy glow. But do these claims hold true? Below we’ll discuss exactly what snail slime is, the benefits of a snail cream, the best snail creams, and a snail cream alternative. What is a snail? Hypoallergenic. It minimizes skin irritation as it contains no artificial fragrance or pigment and uses only skin-friendly plant extracts to prevent irritation: Euh. Not really dude. All that skin-friendly plant thing is marketing. There are plenty of toxic plant extracts out there; just because something comes from mother nature doesn't mean it won't rip your skin to shreds. Now yes, the ingredients here are, for the most part, nonirritating, but alas, our beloved friend Ethylhexylglycerin has found its way in this eye cream. Please read the paragraph written on it in the in-depth ingredient list above if you're not familiar with this preservative. Also, let me reiterate what I always say: If you have hyperpigmentation, one of the best Korean snail creams may help you. It contains a mix of peptides, glycosaminoglycans, hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and metal ions that can help to even out your complexion over time. Mizon is well known for its highly effective snail skincare line which uses high concentrations of snail mucin extract to help repair, firm and rejuvenate the skin.

Sodium Hyaluronate: This is salt that is potent in boosting skin moisture level while sealing the existing moisture, thus keeping the skin dewy, tight and flexible. It also helps to smooth skin inflammations. However, it causes skin infection such as redness or swelling [1] How To Apply Mizon Snail Cream?

Stearic Acid: It has cleansing properties so that it is used to remove dirt, sweat and excess sebum from the skin [3].Glycolic acid is a type of alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that exerts anti-inflammatory, keratolytic, and antioxidant effects, and acts as both an exfoliator and a moisturizer. Glycolic acid exfoliates the skin by targeting corneocytes (dead skin cells that make up the top layers of skin) in a process called corneocyte desquamation. By enhancing their breakdown and increasing the separation of skin cells, the rate of cell turnover is increased, leading to smoother, brighter skin. Glycolic acid is also a humectant, which means it grabs onto water and slows it from evaporating. The natural glycolic acid in snail slime will help to brighten skin and promote a dewy glow. Allantoin is another key component of snail mucin that provides several benefits. Allantoin is a very gentle and effective moisturizing ingredient. Additionally, allantoin is a keratolytic, which means it has the ability to smooth skin through exfoliation of the top layer of dead skin cells. Allantoin can help to increase skin smoothness, aid in wound healing, and promote cell proliferation and longevity. This is why using a snail cream can help promote skin healing and regeneration. Snail skin care Supplies and protects moisture from evaporating by creating a protective shield to keep the eye area hydrated: Yes, as you've probably grasped from what I've written so far, the Mizon Snail Repair Eye Cream is a pretty good moisturizer and hydrator for the under-eye area. I have no complaints on that front.

Many of the snail mucin benefits come from three key components: hyaluronic acid, glycolic acid, and allantoin. Hyaluronic acid is an exceptional ingredient for adding hydration to the skin. It is a glycosaminoglycan that draws in moisture from the environment and can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water. Hyaluronic acid may also help to plump the skin and reduce signs of aging. One of their most popular product line is the Snail Repair line which uses snail secretion extract to moisturise, hydrate and combat aging signs. Before applying moisturiser, take a small amount of cream on your finger at pat it into your under eyes. Apply any excess to your smile lines and around your mouth.
