What Are The Benefits of Using Snail Mucin?
Recent studies suggest snail mucin may enhance skin hydration by stimulating hyaluronic acid production, essential for moisture retention in skin and has potential to keep skin moist and reduce dryness.
Additionally, snail mucin's anti-aging effects are attributed to its collagen and elastin content. A 2020 study observed noticeable improvements in skin texture, firmness, and elasticity among middle-aged women using snail secretion-based skincare.
Regarding sun damage, preliminary research in mice suggests that snail mucin might mitigate the harmful effects of UVB radiation, although further studies are needed to confirm these findings in humans.
Moreover, the glycolic acid in snail mucin serves as a gentle exfoliant, promoting smoother, brighter skin. It also assists in removing rough patches and addressing acne and hyperpigmentation, according to Dr. Sajic.
