Review: COSRX Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence and Centella Blemish Cream

Haven't been into writing lately so here it goes.

Taking care of my skin is one of my guilty pleasures, that I can't deny I'm so obsessed with. However, with a tight budget and a need to continue my skincare routine, I have searched for something that is within my price range and also very effective, so as they claim to be.

I came across this brand COSRX, when my favorite vlogger mentioned it in her channel. Yes, these influencers will cost you money. Anyway, she's promoting it non-stop to the point I have to search the brand in the web.Turns out they really are popular in Korea and around Asia.

I tried the Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence and Centella Blemish Cream just because they gave you the promise of the glow and blemish free face a girl would die for.

Below are the details I have taken from the web to give you an idea why people adored these products:

Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence : Contains 96% pure snail secretion filtrate packed with healing nutrients; penetrates deep into the skin to counteract damage; keeps skin moist and hydrated all day; restores vitality for a brighter, healthier complexion

Centella Blemish Cream : Centella Asiatica content reduces redness and keeps blemishes under control; natural ingredients are suitable for sensitive, easily-triggered skin; best used with Centella Blemish Ampule

What I normally do is after washing my face, spritz some toner, then put on the essence, wait for the product to sink in, put on some moisturizer and then use the blemish cream to areas that need some love (a.k.a pimples and pimple marks).

Verdict: I love them! They do compliment each other like chocolate and peanut butter. While the essence brightens my complexion, the cream helps to slowly but surely fade away stubborn pimple marks. Price wise, very affordable and budget friendly. Holy grail items for me!
