this snail mucin essence really is one of the best ones out there— it's a holy grail. this product was my very first impression of cosrx, and the short ingredient list is very surprising with how effective it is. i've been using it for about a year now, and it's become a staple in my routine. after my first couple weeks of use, a lot of my dark spots disappeared and calmed down my hormonal acne & Show more

This ruined my face! I didn’t know that my dust mite allergy also made me allergic to this. I used it for five months and everything seemed fine, but then I started to get a goatee of fungal acne with big red patches. I’d also been getting a lot of big pimples in my hairline from it. It’s taken me months to understand what happened and to soothe my sad skin. Be warned not to jump off the bridge Show more

Umm..
It dulled my skin not sure if it’s because I used it incorrectly or it didn’t jam with my other products or their ingredients. Also quite small in packaging. Didn’t sting my eyes very convenient to use also when I would use the product it felt like I applied a film or residue on my face if that makes sense I’d have to blend it otherwise it’d look like I smudged Vaseline all over my face, Show more
