COSRX - Jolivares1717 review for Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence

I've been using the COSRX Snail Mucin Essence for a few weeks now, and I'm absolutely loving it! To apply, I pour a few drops onto my palm, gently pat it onto my face, and then smooth it out with a gentle stroking motion. It feels so lightweight and silky on my skin, like a gentle hug. This essence has a very mild, almost imperceptible scent - I'd say it's basically unscented. The active ingredients include 96% snail mucin, hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and trehalose, which work together to provide intense hydration, soothe, and plump up my skin. The retail price is around $15-$20, depending on where you buy it. The bottle weighs 100ml, which is a great size for travel or everyday use. I use it every day, both morning and evening, as the 5th step in my skincare routine (after cleansing, toning, exfoliating, and essence). This product works beautifully with other products in my routine, including vitamin C, retinol, AHA/BHA, and niacinamide. However, as with any new product, be sure to patch test and start with a small amount to ensure you don't have any sensitivity. The texture is famously tacky and stretchy. If you can get over the texture, it is lightweight and watery, making it perfect for all skin types, even oily skin. And yes, it's a Korean skincare product! COSRX is a well-known brand in the K-beauty world, and this product has been a best-seller for years. Overall, I'm so glad I added this essence to my routine - my skin feels so soft, supple, and hydrated, and I can already see a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles. Give it a try if you're looking for a gentle, effective, and affordable skincare product.
