Recipe: Snow Mushroom Serum, a Snail Mucin Vegan Alternative
Skincare’s latest delicacy, snail mucin, is emerging from its shell to captivate skincare enthusiasts with its remarkable benefits. Slowly but steadily, the word spread about its potent ability to improve hydration, stimulate collagen production, and aid in skin regeneration!
However, while everyone can agree on the benefits, not everyone agrees on how it’s produced. While snail mucin used in skincare is completely cruelty-free, it is not vegan-friendly.
If you’re looking for a vegan-friendly alternative with the same benefits, we’re here to help you find the right trail! Our snow mushroom liquid extract is plant-derived and has many of the same benefits!
Below you’ll find a 3-step recipe to make a vegan dupe of COSRX’s Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence which was the 2nd best-selling skincare product on Amazon in Q2 of 2023! The materials to make 24, 1.5oz vegan mucin essence serums will cost less than $200 and could sell for over $400 (suggested retail of $17-$20)!
