Ingredients analysis: the benefits of snail secretion filtrate to the skin. Snail secretion filtrate is snail mucin, the fluid secreted on the underbelly of snails, processed and filtered with water. Snail mucin is known to contain glycolic acid (increases cellular turnover), allantoin (wound-healing properties), and a host of other ingredients that offer nourishment to the skin. No snails are killed during the snail mucin harvest. The process has evolved so as to not harm the snails. To collect the mucin, the snails are placed on glass (or other surface) and administered a small electric shock to stimulate their glands into producing more mucin.
Sodium Hyaluronate is a close cousin to Hyaluronic Acid - a naturally occuring substance in our skin and joints that is known to plump wrinkles and increase hydration in the skin. Hyaluronic Acid molecules are able to hold 1000x their weight in water. Panthenol is another moisturizing agent, while arginine is an antioxidant.
How to Use:
Use this twice a day. In the mornings, use this as a moisturizer after cleanse, tone, and treat skin with actives. Then top it off with a sunscreen.
In the evenings, use the Snail 96 after cleansing, toning, treating with actives, and your first treatment essence. Follow up with the rest of your moisturizers - which change based on the way your skin feels.
