A study from 2016 found glycerin to be more effective as a humectant than AHAs and hyaluronic acid.
As a humectant, it helps the skin stay hydrated by pulling moisture to your skin. The low molecular weight of glycerin allows it to pull moisture into the deeper layers of your skin.
Hydrated skin improves your skin barrier; Your skin barrier helps protect against irritants and bacteria.
Glycerin has also been found to have antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Due to these properties, glycerin is often used in wound and burn treatments.

Because squalane boosts hydration in the skin, it also comes with plenty of benefits: it is an antioxidant and can help fight free radicals and skin damage. Squalane is also found to have a detoxifying effect when applied.
Squalane comes from squalene, which occurs naturally within the sebum of our skin. It is one of the oils our skin produces to keep itself hydrated. Squalane is the hydrogenated version of squalene and has a longer shelf life.
Research shows that squalane is non-irritating (even at 100% concentration).
In general, it's a fantastic ingredient. It does a great job at hydrating the skin, and it's suitable for those with sensitive skin.
The source of squalane may impact malassezia / fungal acne. This is because olive oil derived squalane can contain impurities such as fatty acids and plant waxes. Sugarcane derived squalane is recommended for anyone with malassezia concerns.
Is squalane vegan?
This depends on the source. Squalane can be derived from both plants and animals. Most squalane used in skincare comes from plants.
Please note: the source of squalane is only known if disclosed by the brand. We recommend reaching out to the brand if you have any questions about their squalane.

This is a great daytime moisturizer for dry skin!
What first drew me to this product was its name. I love snail mucin and the words “deep moisture cream” sounded like this would be wonderful for my dry skin. And it is! The ingredient list is also impressive, featuring several types of hyaluronic acid, several forms of centella asiatica, as well as snail mucin, shea butter, squalane, jojoba, licorice root, and more! Having said that however, I kinda expected a “deep moisture cream” to be heavier. This is more like medium weight moisturizer, so it might not be enough for dry skin at night, but I love this for daytime use. Also, despite snail mucin being high on the ingredient list, this moisturizer does not have a mucus like texture. It feels similarly to most moisturizers. BUT you should also keep in mind that this is a silicon free product because that affects how it applies. Depending on your wants, a silicon free moisturizer could be a pro or a con. For me, I just have to be aware of what I’m layering with this because without silicones this product sometimes has a harder time being rubbed in. That doesn’t bother me, but it is something I think potential buyers should be aware of.

I'm coming back for you
didn’t realize how much I loved this stuff until I was cutting the packaging open to get the most use possible out of it! easily accessible if you live near an Ulta, not terribly expensive, and not a sticky consistency like other snail mucin products tend to have. not repurchasing immediately because I like trying new things often, but I have a feeling this will be back on my shelf sooner rather than later!
