Snail Secretion Filtrate

Limited concern·Limited evidence

A filtrate of garden snail mucus containing glycoproteins, hyaluronic acid, allantoin and glycolic acid. A handful of small industry-funded trials report improved hydration and reduced fine lines after several weeks of use, but independent, well-controlled human data are scarce, so treat the "repair" and "glass skin" marketing as unproven rather than false.
