The remarkable cosmetic benefits of Snail extracts, a unique substance the snail produces to quickly regenerate its own shell and skin when damaged. The unique healing and repairing powers of the snail's slime, which is harvested without causing any harm, was discovered by chance by snail farmers in Chile who noticed their hands were incredibly soft and hydrated and minor cuts and scars were healing unusually quickly. Further research and clinical testing found that the secretions contained high levels of naturally occurring allantoin, collagen, elastin and anti-bacterial substances that all have beneficial healing, smoothing and purifying effects on human skin.
