COSRX

MIST & ESSENCE

COSRX

Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence

₹1450

"The obvious thing this immediately does is hydrate the crap out of your skin. Hydration is really the main thing behind that glowy “glass skin” look, and I think this is why this product keeps going viral – it just gives so much instant gratification!"

Dr. Michelle Wong

Dr. Michelle Wong

Cosmetic Chemist

"Snail mucin is made up of at least 6 different proteins. You're going to have several benefits all at once - mild smoothening and retexturization, increased hydration levels, boosted collagen and elastin over time, and minimized inflammation."

Shannon Stubbs

Shannon Stubbs
