COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence 100ml for Dullness & Lines

Product Description of COSRX Advanced Snail 96

This is COSRX's Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence, the essence in the brand's Advanced Snail range. It is a separate product from the Advanced Snail 92 All in one Cream, which is a moisturizer. The 96 in the name is the proportion of snail secretion filtrate in the formula. The matching snail moisturizer takes the next step with a 92% snail mucin gel cream format.

The ingredient list is short. Twelve ingredients in total, with no fragrance, no alcohol, no essential oils and no silicone. The liquid is thin and absorbs quickly once patted in. COSRX places it in the essence step, before your moisturizer.

How COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence Works?

The essence is a hydration step that goes on after your toner. Snail secretion filtrate makes up 96% of the formula and carries the brand's focus. Sodium hyaluronate and panthenol handle moisture and comfort, and allantoin sits alongside them for soothing. The texture is thin enough to pat in and absorb, so your moisturizer can follow straight after. A 77% heartleaf toner can come first when you want a watery soothing layer before the essence.

Who Should Use Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence?

This essence suits shoppers who want a hydration step with a short ingredient list. The brand's focus is moisture, dullness and the look of fine lines rather than a single skin type. The formula is snail derived, so it is not vegan. There is also no fragrance, alcohol or essential oil in the list. For a light moisturizing layer after the essence, an oil free birch sap lotion adds hydration without an oily finish..

COSRX currently lists the essence for all skin types, with sensitive and post acne skin specifically named. The brand also states that its mucin is collected without applying pressure or harm to the snails.
