How Snail mucin helps for dry skin

Dryness occurs when the skin lacks lipids, so it loses water and flakes. Snail mucin approaches the problem from a different angle: snail mucin combines hydration, repair and renewal stimulation in a single ingredient. As a result, used consistently, it gently improves the skin for dry skin.

How to use it

  • Cleanse with a gentle, non-stripping product.
  • Apply snail mucin to dry skin, starting 2–3 times a week.
  • Seal with a moisturiser to support the barrier.
  • Always use SPF 30+ in the morning.
