It’s made with real snail essence, which CosRX says helps to repair the skin and prevent dryness and loss of elasticity. The serum can be used on all skin types, even sensitive ones, to reduce redness (thanks to a little help from hydration). It also helps to soothe your skin and make it brighter and more glowy.

Speaking of the snail essence, don’t fret about the snails, per the company: CosRX says it obtains the secretions in a way that doesn’t harm them and takes place in a “safe and environmentally friendly way in a favorite environment of the snail.” (Apparently, they place snails in a “dark and quiet” environment for 30 minutes and then take them back home.)

If you’ve ever been curious — or you wouldn’t now dream of going without it — pick up this cult-fave serum while the deal is still live at Amazon.
