Snail gel

Cosmetic products with snail extract might sound a little disgusting – but their fantastic effects will quickly make you fall in love with them. The legendary rejuvenating effects of skin masks, serums, and creams with snail slime make them popular not just in Korean beauty. They are rich in vitamins A, E and C as well as collagen which counteracts the effects of skin ageing. They also contain elastin which promotes skin firmness and elasticity. 

Snail extract was actually discovered by accident. Workers on snail farms in South Africa had incredibly soft hands and all their scratches healed way quicker than they normally tend to. A physician who worked on the farm started to experiment with the slime that snails use to move around, and found out that it contains a lot of substances that are beneficial for the skin. 

Snail slime for cosmetic purposes is obtained in a cruelty-free way. The snail is cleaned, goes through a special procedure which extracts the slime, and is returned to the farm without damage or injury.
