As is well known, snail mucin is an appreciated natural ingredient with multiple benefits for the skin: it helps cell regeneration, it has excellent results in combating wrinkles, stretch marks and acne. In general it acts on a host of minor skin problems.
We often receive questions such as: when to use snail secretion?
We have compiled below some tips that are often given to those who ask:
1) remember that snail mucin is typically a cosmetic raw material. Consequently, it is an excellent idea to add it to your favorite cream or serum.
2) if you want to use it pure, it is recommended to take some precautions:
– obviously avoid contact with sensitive parts of the body such as the eyes;
– remember that there are many different skins. If you have very sensitive skin, prefer to use snail mucus mixed in your favorite cream.
– It is always suggested to put a small amount of snail slime on a small part of the body (the forearm for example) to rule out an allergic reaction.
– pure snail slime can be applied in the morning or at night, once or twice a week, without problems.
– If you observe allergic reactions, stop the treatment immediately.
Snail secretion naturally has glycolic acid. This compound causes a «peeling» effect that can cause a reaction in our skin.
