A common ingredient found in artificial cosmetic products is snail mucin.

All these ingredients are known to cause allergies, breakouts, and irritation.
When it comes to keeping your skin hydrated, it is important to use a hydrating mask once in a while. Most Korean women use an essence sponge on their face prior to application of a hydrating mask. Some of the ingredients present in an essence sponge include glycerin, saccharin, and stearic acid.

If you are using apple cider vinegar essence, you need to add about half cup of water onto it. A 10-step Korean skin-care regimen is recommended for people who want to keep away from allergies, acne, and premature aging. After using the 10-step Korean skin-care regimen, you can apply a sheet mask made of egg whites, almond oil, honey, vinegar, cucumber, and lavender.
After using the sheet mask, you should clean your face thoroughly with a cleanser and antibacterial soap. A good cleansing and toning serum is also recommended to maintain the moisture in your skin. The ingredients of a hydrating serum should include glycerin, lactic acid, oatmeal, sodium hydroxide, aloe vera, kaolin, caprylic acid, and witch hazel. You should not use a serum that contains alcohol because they may irritate your skin. Before applying the serum, you need to apply a toner that contains PABA (Para Amino Benzoic) to prepare your skin for the hydrating serum.
The composition of the snail music is one of the ingredients that makes up the Cosrx anti-wrinkle cream. This ingredient is extracted from the excreta of the snail named Ampalaya hermaphrodita. This ingredient is known to have numerous medicinal purposes like healing wounds, healing acne scars, relieving the pain caused by rheumatoid arthritis and reducing wrinkles. The texture of the snail mucin is somewhat sticky, which makes it difficult to remove from the skin but this stickiness does not have any effect on the functions of the product.
