CosRx has lots of superstar products (both the pimple patches and the snail moisturizer immediately come to mind), but few are more popular than the brand’s snail-mucin essence, which to date has racked up thousands of five-stars reviews, and a glowing endorsement from our very own Rio Viera-Newton, calling it “one of the best healing, brightening, and moisturizing essences on the market.” It addresses a host of issues, including dullness, dryness, and acne, thanks to a blend of hyaluronic acid, panthenol, and (of course) snail mucin, which work together to deliver brighter, glowier, and healthier-looking skin. On a normal day, a bottle of the essence isn’t too expensive — but right now, it’s half-off on Amazon, bringing it down from $25 to just $13. That’s the cheapest we’ve seen it in a while, so if you’ve been thinking about adding it to your routine (or have seen one of the hundreds of TikTok videos recommending it for glazed-donut skin), now’s a good time to add to cart.
