Yes, it really is what you think: Snail mucus extract (think the slimy stuff left in their trail as they slowly make their way from one place to another) is a highly effective skin treatment. Specifically, it is said to help with cell regeneration and to heal dry, aging, cracked, or inflamed skin around sensitive, delicate areas like eyelids and the skin on and around the nose and mouth. It has also been said to reduce scarring caused by pimples. You only use a small amount, and most snail repair creams cost around $15.
