Vitamasques' Revolutionary Vegan Snail Mucin, Explained

In the fast-paced world of skincare, snail mucin has taken its sweet time to establish a lasting reputation for its hydrating and skin-repairing properties. However, the idea of using snail secretion on your face can be off-putting and isn't cruelty-free. Enter our innovative vegan snail mucin serum, offering all the benefits of traditional snail mucin without involving snails. Ready to learn more? Let’s dive into what makes this product a must-have in your skincare routine.

What Is Snail Mucin?

First things first, what exactly is snail mucin? It’s the gooey stuff that snails produce, often hailed as a miracle ingredient in the skincare world. Traditionally, snail mucin is collected by placing snails on a mesh or glass surface and allowing them to crawl around, leaving behind their mucin. This mucin is then harvested, filtered, and used in various skincare products. The fact that traditional snail mucin is an animal product, makes it non-vegan, and not entirely ethical to some. 

Snail mucin is basically a skincare superstar for hydration, anti-aging, and repairing your skin. 🐌
