Quickly became a huge favourite of mine! Its lightweight so perfect for combo/oily skin and soothes redness so quickly! Not sticky at all and definitely has cleared my acne up not massively but definitely a little bit!

It's moist, but after it's absorbed, it's dry. I tend to be dry, so when it's completely absorbed, it dries. So I put the cream on right away without being completely absorbed. it wasn't the perfect product for me

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
