Comparing Two Viral Snail Mucin Essences from COSRX: Advanced 96 vs Dual Radiance #skincare

These two bestselling Cosrx snail essences are commonly confused, so let’s debunk their differences once and for all! Snail mucin as an ingredient is incredibly hydrating and helps to plump and nourish the skin. The dual essence offers more skin benefits and helps to target specific skin concerns.

🤍 COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence (100ml)

This essence is a viral K-Beauty product that is loved globally! Formulated with 96% Snail Secretion Filtrate, this essence locks in moisture deep into the skin, plump the skin to improve the appearance of fine lines, and has the ability to repair and strengthen the skin barrier.

Thanks to its light-weight texture, the essence sinks into the skin fast, giving it deep hydration - your face will have a healthy “glass skin” glow after using this product! This essence is water based rather than oil, which makes it perfect for all skin types, even for oily and combination skin!

🤍 COSRX Advanced Snail Radiance Dual Essence (80ml)

This powerful and nutritious dual essence promotes a youthful and radiant complexion. It is formulated with Triple Snail Complexion, which is a mixture of Land Snail (locks in hydration and refines skin texture), Black Mucin (helps control pores and regenerate skin) and Golden Shell Mucin (blocks out harmful UV rays, moisturises) and 5% Niacinamide that brightens and improves skin texture! This is also the ultimate product for healing and repairing acne scars.

Dry skin here and the dual essence is super hydrating so idk I like them both tbh but dual essence is a little something extra 😂

The Original has basically cleared up my skin.... I may purchase the newer version when i'm empty, but if stuff goes a long way... But the first one is great for acne! And hydration!

I love and use both, i prefer to use the dual essence in the morning. I have noticed if I get a blemish it heals a lot quicker since using these products and my skin looks and feels healthy. Use after cleansing while skin is still moist. The all in one tub is fantastic too!! 👌

I’ve used the dual version and I still prefer the OG. Also niacinamide is very strong if you’re using the dual version, you only need like 1-2 pumps.

The original is my preference. I am older and have drier skin, no wrinkles, and it keeps the moisture in my skin, and I pit my moisturizer on top of it. I love this product!

[hmmmnope]

It has 5% niacinamide in it. That's the amount used in studies which proved how helpful niacinamide is for people with acne and those trying to prevent it(and normal pimples)

So basically if you go with the dual version you wouldn't need to use an extra niacinamide serum anymore

At one point i had both 😭 and I was consistently reaching for the OG during the day, dual version at night. I feel like the niacinamide in this was like, super potent for my skin lol

The cosrx snail cream makes my skin glassy. ❤❤❤

[euniceocampo]

I use the OG in the morning before my BOJ sunscreen and the at night I use the Dual Essence version. :) Works great that way for my super oily acne prone and sensitive skin.

People with whiteheads. Snail mucin isn't exactly known to help but evidence suggests it could lead to more whiteheads and some people are allergic or they get breakouts from this product so please whoever you are always remember to patch test.

I have acne marks can you recommend me i have to buy the no.1 or no.2 ...

[Bom_siii]

Any products to help fade away acne scars please?

[clichelily]

Should I apply moisturizer after the dual essence?❤
I have skin. I have severe acne, so does this clear acne and acne scars too?

[condorhero]

I have both. I got one as a gift so I use the 2nd version at night and the other at day.

[chevynewham]

I love live COSRX! I have both and use both! Thank God for snails! 😅

[zainabakram]

Pls which one is better to obtaining glassy skin.?

[ayaz]

Snail muslin cream or dual snail muslin which is best for rehydration and fade skin with open pores?

[ddlover]

ehm they're basically the same. I didn;t see a brightening effect in the dual. Both made my skin smooth and hydrated

[nabeelasadique]

Which among these helps to get rid of pigmentation
