Very good product for your face I love this stuff. It has a thick consistency, not too watery. I use it as a toner ,doesn’t effect my eyes but I also don’t use it in my eyes or too close to my eyes, it has no odor to it, and it’s very easy to just add to your regimen day or nights and does your skin a lot of justice

This essence is a true game-changer when it comes to combating dullness and repairing damaged skin. With its exceptional formulation and impressive results, it has become an indispensable step in my Korean skincare regimen.

Incorporating this essence into my skincare routine has been a breeze. After cleansing and toning, I apply a few pumps of the essence onto my face, gently patting it in for optimal absorption. It provides a perfect base for the rest of my serums and moisturizers, amplifying their efficacy.
I have tried numerous serums and essences in the past, but the COSRX Snail Mucin 96% Power Repairing Essence truly stands out from the crowd. It delivers on its promise of hydrating and repairing dull and damaged skin, and the results are hard to ignore. My complexion has never looked better, and I feel more confident in my skin every day.

At 32 I had stubborn hormonal acne and dry flaky skin (thanks in part to the dry climate in Colorado) I was tired of constantly fighting my skin and embarked on a journey to get the clear youthful skin I deserved. I was pleased to find that the skin of my dreams in a Korean beauty inspired routine. The best part is that nearly all the products I tried were relatively inexpensive and readily available from amazon. My acne is non-existent now and the tone and texture of my skin is so supple and smooth. I have provided a list of my routine below which includes this product. I’m not saying this is the best or only way to achieve my results, I just thought others would be interested in what I used.
*indicates review for this product
AM- hydrating, lightweight, works under makeup
Cleanser - (purchased from Ulta for a fraction of the price $6.99)
First Toner- – $7.00 - This is like a drink of water for your face. I love this stuff and will spray again randomly throughout the day whenever I need a refresher. The aroma is a little strong for my liking but (almost like perfume) but I’m willing to overlook since the rose and aloe does so much for my skin. I used to use just straight rose water which has a very present smell but I like the spray delivery of this product better.
Moisturizing Toner- –$12.98 - I can’t say enough about this. It’s a nice thick toner much more substantial that the western watery toners I was used to. The smell of this is very bright and green (that’s the best way I can think of to explain it) I love the smell! Every now and then I will smell it on my face and it gives me an invigorating boost. This toner works well to moisturize and calm my skin and will certainly be re-purchasing. A little goes a long way with this stuff so that won’t be for quite some time!
Treatment- – $13.99 - I use this during the day to keep my skin feeling hydrated and give my skin the boost of anti-oxidants to help combat ageing. This is a lightweight serum (which is why I use it under my makeup) but it does take some time to fully absorb in and dry on my skin. After I put this on I generally go and have breakfast before coming back to finish. The aroma leans more towards green tea which again I find refreshing for the morning. The syrup is a milky and slightly viscous with minimal stickiness.
Eye Cream- (14ml) – (Purchased from Ulta)
Face Cream- – $9.99/ 2-pack - Lightweight moisturizer which works perfectly under makeup. This product doesn’t’ have much of a smell. The consistency is unique halfway between a gel and a cream. Glides on smoothly and provides a decent amount of hydration when combines with my other hydrating products. I don’t like to use occlusive products during the day and this moisturizer fits the bill.
PM-all about Snail- Repair, Hydrated, Moisturize
Makeup Remover- – Purchased at Ulta for a fraction of the price - $6.99
Double Cleanse - –$14.21 - The oil cleanser feels light and silky. At night, I massage 1 pump into my skin and works well to dissolve the days make-up. Once I am done breaking down all the makeup, I use water to get some of it off before moving to the foam cleanser. My only complaint is that the fragrance is a little strong and can burn my eyes if I’m not careful. It leaves my skin feeling soft and clean. The foam cleanser works well to clean off the oil left on my face. The foam cleanser aroma is a lot more tolerable to me. It comes out of the tube a shimmery white color and is Very gentle. These two cleansers work well to get my face clean and ready for treatments without that typical tight feeling. They leave my skin soft and moisturized.
Exfoliation - - $21.99 - one a week - I used to use philosophy's microderm kit but this one offers the same exact results for 1/2 of the price. This exfoliator leaves my skin feeling baby soft but it does seem a tad harsh so I don't like to use it too frequently. I love the fresh citrus smell of the crystals and the warming foaming action once you put on the activator. Since I only use this once a week it lasts for a VERY long time and is totally worth the price.
Toner- –$12.98 I can’t say enough about this. It’s a nice thick toner much more substantial that the western watery toners I was used to. The smell of this is very bright and green (that’s the best way I can think of to explain it) I love the smell! Every now and then I will smell it on my face and it gives me an invigorating boost. This toner works well to moisturize and calm my skin and will certainly be re-purchasing. A little goes a long way with this stuff so that won’t be for quite some time!
*Essence - – $15.85 - I only use this at night because it does leave bit of a film on my face which I find unpleasant under make up. It dries quickly and a single pump gives me enough to cover my whole face and neck. There is no smell to speak of but it does have a slimy snail-y texture ( it is 96% slime!) and can be a bit tacky once its all said and done. I have also used this on some iron burns to help it heal faster and minimize scaring with a lot of success.
Treatment- - $11.43 - Anti Wrinkle - Multi Function Formula- Clear viscous liquid. Not nearly as slimy as the essence. No smell, absorbs quickly. I focus heavily on the snail products at night because I read that the copper peptides naturally contained in the snail can
alter the effectiveness of the vitamin C and vice versa.
Spot Treatment-– $14.95 - Use only as needed – Works wonders to diminish blemishes overnight. I used this quite frequently when I first started but after a while using all these products I didn’t have any acne to speak of!
Sheet Mask - – $10.40 - I use once a week. I know that sheet masks are the totally hot thing in Korean beauty but I don’t think they do much for me other than a relaxing home spa experience. I just don’t see that they provide much and probably will not be buying more.
Eye Cream- 1 Ounce – $13.98 - Light weight, absorbs quickly. The container is quite generous and a little will go a long way. I think I will have this for a while! It doesn’t have any smell.
Face Cream- –$10.49 - Like all of the Mizon Snail products I have tried this is a very easy introduction into the world of snail skin care. It has minimum smell and lightweight texture. Minimal slime factor, you wouldn’t even know it was snail in a blind comparison. It has a off white color and a lightweight consistency. It doesn’t work wall as an occlusive if that’s what you want you may need to add a different moisturizer at night.
Face Oils- I use a mixture of two oils applied at once: . - $13.95 - and –$12.95 - I like to use the oils last because I feel like it really seals everything in and provides moisture to last me through the night. The rosehip oil is very yellow orange so I wouldn’t recommend using during the day abut I do sometimes mix the Argan oil in with my foundation if I want a dewier look.

I'm really picky about skin care. All I can say is that I'll be back for more. I've been using this product for a short time, and I'm already seeing a difference in my complexion.
My skin looks rejuvenated and healthy. I've had no issue with oil build-up, being that I have an oily skin type, nor acne breakouts.
I'll be using this product at night, since it does give me a little extra shine... but it's a "clean" feeling shine! Alsooo, the product feels slightly sticky on my face; not entirely sure, though, if it's caused by other applied products. 😅 Not a deal breaker for me, since the product feels light to wear.
