On its own, this product is nothing to write home about. Entirely underwhelming. However, I started mixing it in with my Skinfix Barrier+ Triple Lipid-Hyaluronate Serum (2 pumps of each) to stretch it out further since it's twice as expensive. Wow. Obsessed. 10/10. Skin feels so plump, but very light. Hello hydration era. Also makes a beautiful sandwich when layering with any actives: essence/serum, actives, moisturizer. I have combo-oily skin but use tret, so I'm also dry/dehydrated and slightly sensitized and this is perfect all around.
Wanted to love it, but broke me out ;((
Bought it because I read that it suits sensitive, acne prone and dehydrated skin, doesn't clog pores, so I expected a lot from this product. It did leave my skin plump and soft, but not long after using it I started to break out so it's a shame.
The product wasn't sticky and not really that slimy as some reviews sad, also a little goes a long way.
I really like COSRx products which is why I wanted to try this one out. The consistency is great. It's not sticky and not too watery. It glides onto your skin as you apply it and it's fast-absorbing which is always a bonus. I've used other snail essences before and they haven't really dramatically improved my skin. I can sadly say that this is going into the same category as those ones I've tried. Although it is hydrating, I feel like this isn't the essence that fits my skin type at all. I really wanted to love it but it's just not meant to be.
