96.3% Snail Secretion Filtrate
The formula contains 96.3% snail secretion filtrate, commonly known as snail mucin.
Snail mucin provides moisturizing and conditioning care that helps support skin that feels:
💧 Hydrated
🌿 Comfortable
✨ Soft
🫧 Smooth
🛡️ Supported against moisture loss
According to COSRX, the snail mucin is collected naturally without applying pressure or harm to the snails.
Because snail secretion filtrate is animal-derived, the product is not vegan.
Sodium Hyaluronate for Hydration
The formula contains 1,000 ppm sodium hyaluronate, a form of hyaluronic acid used to help attract and retain moisture.
It complements the snail secretion filtrate to support a complexion that looks and feels:
💧 Hydrated
✨ Plumper
🫧 Smoother
🌿 More comfortable
🌟 Refreshed
Individual results can vary.
Panthenol & Allantoin
Panthenol and allantoin provide soothing and conditioning care for the skin.
These ingredients help support routines focused on:
🌿 Sensitive-feeling skin
🌫️ Visible redness
🛡️ A stressed moisture barrier
✨ Post-breakout care
💧 Dryness and dehydration
The product provides cosmetic skin care and is not intended to treat a medical skin condition.
Betaine for Moisture Care
The formula also contains betaine, a moisturizing ingredient that helps support skin hydration and comfort.
Betaine works alongside snail mucin and sodium hyaluronate to help maintain a smooth and moisturized complexion.
Care for Dullness & Uneven Texture
Dryness can make the skin appear dull or uneven.
By supporting hydration, the essence can help the complexion look:
✨ More radiant
💧 Hydrated
🌿 Refreshed
🫧 Smoother
🌟 More even
Consistent skin care, sunscreen use, sleep, hydration, and individual skin characteristics can all affect visible results.
Post-Breakout Skin Care
COSRX identifies this essence as suitable for post-breakout skin.
The moisturizing and soothing formula helps support the appearance of skin after breakouts while caring for visible marks and uneven texture.
It does not treat acne or prevent future breakouts. Individual skin responses can vary.
Fine-Line Appearance
Dryness can make fine lines look more noticeable.
The hydrating formula may help soften their visible appearance by keeping the skin moisturized and supporting a smoother-looking surface.
The essence does not permanently remove wrinkles or fine lines.
Lightweight, Fast-Absorbing Texture
The essence has a lightweight texture that spreads easily across the face and absorbs without the heaviness of a traditional facial cream.
It can be layered after toner and before thicker products such as:
✨ Facial treatments
🧴 Moisturizer
💦 Facial oil
☀️ Sunscreen
💄 Makeup
Allow the essence to absorb before applying the next product.
