COSRX Glass Skin Starter Set, Snail 96 Essence & Retinol 0.1 Mini

This product is a game changer!! You only need a very small amount to get full coverage. So the bottle will last a good while. The product is obviously slimy which you would expect. Even after one use my skin felt amazing!! I have been using it now for over a week and I can see and feel the difference in my skin. Skin feels plumper, looks refreshed. Feels silky and smooth. This is now my go to product for my night time routine. I would recommend it to everyone! Fine lines have even gone after continued use.

I bought this snail-trail as a private joke after seeing several videos of Russian girls who keep giant snails as pets. The liquid is presented in a cylindrical, clear container with a pump dispenser that gives one drop at a time. It is slimy stuff - how could it be otherwise? - clear, odourless and cool on the skin. It feels surprisingly pleasant to use, fresh and calming, and it is quickly absorbed. It is very economical in use. After the morning cleanse and tone, I pump one drop into my hand and apply it as instructed with gentle fingertip patting. That one drop is enough to treat my whole face. It is advised to avoid the lips and eye area. Following the slime (I'm not being derogatory, I don't know what else to call it) I apply moisturiser as usual. I find I use less moisturiser than before. My skin feels happy and clean. Unsolicited, my dear partner remarked how my skin looks younger and more alive. He added it looks fresh and new, like a paving slab after the rain. What more can a girl ask?

This product is amazing, I am completely converted. I’d read the reviews know that this is a really popular product, however I didn’t expect it to be as good as it is. Firstly talk about value for money! I noted that one of the reviews made reference to the pump and complained about the tiny amount that is dispensed in one pump however to be perfectly honest for some people one tiny pump would be sufficient to thoroughly hydrate the skin as this product goes far! I use two pumps and initially my face feels quite wet but not at all sticky. The product then completely soaks into my skin making it feel so soft and the perfect base for applying my moisturiser. Make sure you wait a couple of minutes though before applying your moisturiser to allow the product to fully soak into and hydrate your skin. There is no specific smell to this product which I feel is a bonus. My skin tone has genuinely improved since I started to use this product, but another bonus is the base it provides for my makeup is second to none. I can’t recommend this product enough - please give it a try you won’t be disappointed

Bought this after a team meeting at work where it became a full on discussion by one of the girls who swore by it (and she did have lovely skin). However I used it daily on my face for months (it lasts a very long time as you only need a small amount) and although it moisturised it nicely, I didn’t particularly notice anything special about my skin. Maybe it’s just meant for a certain type of skin.

I absolutely love the COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence. It has a lightweight, silky texture that absorbs nicely into the skin without feeling greasy or heavy. It leaves my skin feeling deeply hydrated, soft, smooth, and refreshed. With regular use, my skin looks healthier and more radiant, and it works beautifully as part of my daily skincare routine. I also love how soothing it feels on the skin, especially when my skin needs extra moisture. A little goes a long way, so the product lasts quite a while. Overall, a fantastic essence for hydrated, smooth, and glowing skin. I would definitely recommend it and would buy it again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This has become one of my favourite hydrating essences. The texture looks thick at first, but it spreads easily and absorbs much better than I expected without feeling greasy. The hydration is excellent. My skin feels plump, soft, and comfortable straight after applying it. With regular use, I've noticed a healthy glow, and it definitely helps achieve that smooth, "glass skin" look when layered with the rest of my skincare routine. A little goes a long way, so the bottle lasts much longer than I expected. Just one or two pumps are enough for my whole face, making it great value despite the small-looking bottle. Another thing I appreciate is how calming it feels. Whenever my skin is feeling dry or a bit irritated, this essence helps reduce that tight, uncomfortable feeling and leaves my skin looking healthier. Overall, if you're looking for deep hydration, a radiant glow, and a product that lasts for ages, this essence is easy to recommend.

Let me start by saying I have pretty good skin overall. It’s very dry but clear, and I’m also a beauty and skincare content creator so I’m used to trying out products and knowing what to look for. I bought this snail mucin essence during a sale because I kept seeing it all over TikTok and social media, and I was curious to see if it lived up to the hype. Unfortunately, for me it didn’t. I’ve given it a chance. I took it with me while travelling, used it consistently at home and on holiday, but I just didn’t get the results others seem to rave about. When I used it on its own it felt like it wasn’t doing much. My skin didn’t feel noticeably more hydrated or moisturised, and there was no visible glow or improvement in appearance. It didn’t break me out or cause any issues, but it just didn’t add anything either. That said, there are a few positives. The consistency is lovely and smooth, and I like the cooling feel when applying it. It sinks into the skin quickly and leaves it feeling soft to the touch. It’s also fragrance-free, which is a huge plus, especially for people with sensitive skin. And it’s a great travel size. It fit perfectly in my hand luggage and felt like a convenient addition to my routine when layered with other products. Interestingly, it did seem to work better on my mum’s skin. She has more mature combination skin, and it left her face looking more hydrated and plump. So it may just be one of those products that works differently depending on your skin type. In my opinion this isn’t a miracle product like it’s made out to be on social media but it could still be worth trying if you’re curious and want something light to layer in your routine.

I did extensive research looking for something to fix my deep dehydration and acne issues without causing breakouts. I want to emphasize that it’s the combination of this essence used together with my new Korean skincare routine that gave me insane results from the very first use-no single product could do this alone. By using them together, my skin was so deeply hydrated and plumped up that my pores became a lot less visible overnight! This essence fits perfectly into the system, melting into the skin weightlessly to provide a beautiful, healthy glow without clogging my pores.

Very good quality and fastest delivery with prime Amazon

It is not effective at all

Excelente producto, yo tengo el cutis muy graso y vivo en clima caluroso. No deja la piel brillosa, la noto más tersa y uniforme. La consistencia es muy líquida pero espera ver los resultados en el día a día. Definitivamente lo volvería a comprar siempre.

haven't tried it yet but it seems cool

I have been using the COSRX Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence for a while now and I can honestly say it has earned a permanent spot in my skincare routine. This little bottle is pure magic! The star of the show is its 96% snail mucin content, which delivers deep, lasting hydration like nothing else I've tried. My skin feels plump, nourished and thoroughly moisturised after every single use. What really won me over, though, is how beautifully it soothes and calms irritated skin. On days when my skin feels reactive or uncomfortable, this essence brings it right back to balance. The texture is another thing I absolutely love — it's lightweight and non-greasy, which makes it suitable for layering effortlessly into any skincare routine without feeling heavy or clogging pores. Over time, I've also noticed a visible improvement in my overall skin texture. My skin looks smoother, feels softer and has a healthy, dewy glow. For anyone with sensitive skin, this is a dream product. It's gentle, effective, and packed with skin-loving ingredients that truly deliver results. If you haven't tried the COSRX Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence yet, you are seriously missing out. It is hands down one of the best skincare investments I have ever made!
