How to use

After cleansing and toning, apply a small amount over the whole face and pat it in with your fingertips. Follow with a moisturizer. In the morning, continue with sunscreen or makeup.

Pros
  • 96% snail secretion filtrate with sodium hyaluronate (1,000 ppm), panthenol and allantoin
  • Short ingredient list of 13 items, easy to review
  • Thin essence that layers under moisturizer and makeup
Cons
  • Snail filtrate has little independent clinical evidence behind it
  • Results such as +196% moisture come from the brand's own 20-person study, and the page gives conflicting study details
  • Contains a snail-derived ingredient, so it is not vegan
