COSRX Advanced Snail 96 || All in one Cream & Mucin Power Essence
zondag 3 november 2019
This takes me back to my childhood.. I don't think I'm the only one, but I used to play with snails when I was younger. I grabbed them, let them walk on my hands and touched their eyes, because I thought it was funny. Now thinking back, it must have hurt so much for the snails, I mean, if I were to suddenly poke my own eye, wouldn't I flinch? Snails and slugs especially grosses me out now, so I've never imagined for it to be a beauty ingredient.
I have two COSRX products right here, the Advanced Snail 96 All in one Cream and the Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence. This line claims to provide intense hydration, repair skin damage and add radiance to the skin, all without feeling sticky, quite the opposite of what you imagine for a snail containing product. I will test the cream separately and then together with the essence for the best results.

Look and feel
First starting off with the packaging. It has a simple look to it mainly using black, white and yellow. The cream comes in a jar, while the essence comes in a pump container. Personally, It would have been better if the cream also came in a pump container, because of the consistency. It's a liquid consistency that's sticky, so getting product out of the jar can be quite messy. For the essence I expected it to be more watery, but it feels more like a serum than an essence. Both products sinks into the skin pretty smooth and quick. There is a sticky feeling at first, but both products sink into the skin pretty smooth and quick so there's no sticky feeling afterwards.
Results
I'm impressed guys, I love them both so much separately and even better together. When you use them together they compliment each other, resulting in a healthy hydrating glow. The cream by itself is moisturizing enough, but I like the extra moisture it gives with the essence combined. After using it for a while I've noticed that my skin was glowing and looking more healthier than ever and it shows on my face every morning. The essence takes a bit more time to sink into my skin, but overall they both absorb pretty well. You don't need much for the whole face, so a little goes a long way. This is for me the perfect combo for the fall season, achieving that healthy glow with enough moisture.
