Why Snail Mucin Is A Winter Skincare Must-have For Dry Skin

When winter comes calling, dryness is not far behind. So, if you’re skin feels dry and flaky all the time, chances are, things will get even worse during the much-loved sweater weather. Since, the weather is so dry, normally your dry skin will struggle more than the others to maintain its skin barrier, which is why it is a good idea to include snail mucin in your winter skincare routine now.

 

Why snail mucin works well for dry skin? 

Popular for its moisturising powers, snail mucin is rich in humectants like hyaluronic acid and other moisturising agents that helps to repair your skin barrier and lock in hydration.

 

The ingredient is a multi-tasker, with more benefits than just moisturising. It also stimulates collagen production, and soothes any skin irritation, making it perfect especially for dry skin.

 

P.S - You should especially use this ingredient if you’re trying to achieve jello skin.

 

How to pair snail mucin in your skincare routine? 

You can use it in a cream, as a serum or essence depending on the concentration you like. If you’re using it to keep your thirsty skin hydrated, then we suggest using it as a serum right after your cleanser and follow it up with a nourishing moisturiser or sleeping mask to lock in moisture. Since the ingredient is well tolerated by all skin types you can use it twice a day as well if you like.  

 

This winter let the snail save your dry skin from its seasonal woes, happy skincare buying!
