Don't be grossed out, your skin will thank you after the first use. Maybe that's why SpongeBob always carried his pet snail, Gary - skincare benefits?
Amazon *** | Amazon ***All Cosrx products are dermatologist-tested, cruelty-free, and free from parabens, sulfates, and phthalates.
Get ready to be amazed! My skin, which has been a battlefield since I was 8-years-old (no, my cousin wasn’t a face painter...ask me why if you're curious), is finally clear for the first time ever - thanks to this miracle product. This year, I've stepped up my skincare game, and I can now officially say - I am pimple-free! Now, I'm grateful for my clear skin, but it was still a little dull, uneven, ya know... but that all changed after I tried this! My skin is now glowing like never before. In fact, I haven't worn makeup in public since I was around 12 because I was self-conscious about my skin. Fast forward to today, and I'm out and about with no makeup - I'm that confident – thanks to this snail serum. I even bought this for my cousin for Christmas and she's obsessed, and it made my friend's skin transform after a sleepover. I guarantee you’ll love it after your first use.

Rave Review: "If you've got oily/combo skin that is also sensitive and acne-prone, this gem is the solution. Very little goes a long way since the slimy texture glides easily on the skin. It doesn't leave any sticky residue, in fact, it is absorbed into the skin almost instantly. It also keeps the skin moisturized but ensures that oil is not trapped. On the contrary, I've noticed that my skin is less oily after a few days of use!" -Madeline**

Highly recommend trying it, especially for combo skin." -Natalya Cappellini

Amazon *** | Amazon Promising reviews:* "I've been on a quest for the holy grail of lip balms and THIS IS IT. Seriously. I've been searching for years, from pricey French balms to simple organic nut butters and have always needed to re-apply every hour. This stuff is divine. Just a tiny dot keeps my lips soft and hydrated for hours, even through drinking and eating. The grapefruit smell is great, but not overpowering. I'll never use anything else." -Spectacle**

Rave reviews: "This is my first oil-based cleanser, and I'm so glad I picked this one! I originally saw this product on TikTok and had to see what the hype was all about. After using the cleanser on my dry face for 2-3 minutes, I could visibly see my white- and blackheads on my fingers. I was hesitant to try oil cleansing because I have acne-prone skin, but my face has never looked better. After each use, my face is as soft as a baby's bottom and my scars are less noticeable! The cleanser has a light, clean scent. Not overpowering!" –Myshel Cagle

AKA, magic in a bottle.
Amazon Promising review: "I have struggled with acne my entire life. I've gone to dermatologists, tried salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, tazarotene, and nothing ever reduced it. But within four days everything started to disappear. All of my major acne has completely gone away, and I only see little tiny spots here and there but they go away within a day.

Promising review: "After years of trying different products on my sensitive, acne-prone, red, rough skin, I saw this mask and all the positive reviews and thought, 'What the heck, I'll give it a go.' Even after the first application, I was really impressed with the results. My rough skin is smoother, I have no additional breakouts, and when I do wear makeup it blends into my skin better. I wear masks occasionally as a detox of sorts, but otherwise, this little jar is my go-to for everything. Highly recommend trying it, especially for combination skin." –Charlie B

Amazon Promising review: "I've been buying this mask for a little over a year now, and I can verify that it's totally worth the hype. I have relatively dry skin, but while I never had acne when I was younger, I quit hormonal birth control a few years ago, and since then have started breaking out shortly after ovulation. I tried many more expensive masks, but I have sensitive skin, and previous products either left me itchy and irritated, or had no effect. This mask has completely cured all of my skin problems. If I remember to put it on the night I think I've ovulated, I have zero zits, and if I forget, and some start to show up, I do the mask, and the zits have significantly retreated by the next morning. I only need to use it a few times a month so it takes me several months to go through a jar. I would pay four times more for this product if I had to!" –carof**

My dark spots are fading better and my skin is starting to glow. I'm on my second bottle now and I have nothing but good things to say. I really hope they never stop making this." –Scrump**
"And I didn't even realize how much I needed this until I tried it. If I remember to use it once a day, my breakouts have been minimal. The zits I still get have shrunk faster. So if you've got dry or acne-prone skin, I would say, give it a shot!" –Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $23.

I still pick at my skin, but when I don't, these pads help to exfoliate and help with the dark marks. Thanks, Anua!" –Jessyca Renee

I had a few hormonal acne spots on my chin, and this patch helped alleviate the discomfort. I don't recommend using other acids with this. I like that it comes with little tweezers for sanitary use. For a zit that’s lingering, this patch will help make it disappear faster." –LaTisha Taylor

Amazon *** Amazon Promising review: "I have sensitive, dehydrated, acne-prone skin, which makes finding sunscreen difficult for me. My previous go-to was the Elta MD UV Clear sunscreen But I like this one so much better (and it's cheaper!). The Elta MD sunscreen was a bit drying for me. I am currently using tretinoin, which makes my skin flake and peel, and the Elta MD sunscreen made the flakes super obvious. It also did not mix well with my makeup and caused pilling. The Skin1004 sunscreen on the other hand is hydrating and does not dry out my skin or cause breakouts. It blends quite nicely into my skin, and while it does not leave a white cast, it does give my skin a glowy appearance." –Sharon*

*Each mask features a different kind of essence, such as green tea, aloe, or pearl, so they target slightly different skin concerns.
AmazonAfter using these skincare gems across the decades, I can confidently declare that masks have truly revolutionized my skincare regimen and saved my skin from certain ruin. I have acne, dark spots from apart-time sun worshiping, and wrinkles – those pesky, unrelenting, fine lines and a couple deeper ones too – but masks have nourished and hydrated my dehydrated skin, lightened my acne scars, evened out my skin tone, and addressed my wrinkles. I apply my chosen mask, enjoy the calming effect on my senses (a saccharine sweet fruit scent is typically what I experience – so yummy!), and let the mask do its magic. Most masks have a base essence in common, usuallyDerivatives of glycerin, buteach mask also has a set of special, targeted ingredients based on the appearance or scent of the essence. For example, some masks contain honey, some contain acids like lactic acid, some contain fruit-based enzymes like papaya, and others provide super-moisturizing properties through hyaluronic acid or aloe vera.
MASKING BROADENS CHOICES: Keywording a quick skincare search can feel like wading through a sea of all-encompassing options, but facial masks simplify this, thanks to distilled functions and serums in each package. And with facial masks soaring as a social media hit in recent years, these nifty little skincare pals are easily crowd-sourced, with sanctities like Hyaluronic Acid, Snail Mucin, Honey, Tea Tree, Vitamin C, and Berry provide benefits that span from acne reduction, anti-aging, brightening, and overall nourishment.
lovedefeated (2020): I've been lucky to find one that's especially beneficial to my skin. These masks, specifically, provide tremendous benefits for curing inflammation, reducing wrinkles, and providing hydration – they're a godsend. Call them magical, as they transform your skin to a glass skin look while being gentle on the wallet. And with so many different choices, you're bound to find one (or more) that meets your specific skin needs.
Additionally, masks can utilize healing essential oils to dispel unpleasant sensations while revitalizing your skin, providing comfort, peace, and a sense of self-care. My go-to mask usually smells like fresh mint, eucalyptus, grapefruit – a scent that reminds me of being in a luxurious spa – soothing and refreshing my senses and my skin. While masks are typically hypoallergenic, these additional scents enhance the caring experience that comes with exchanging a week of mundane cleansing routines for this delightful aromatherapy and skin-perfecting pampering routine.
My Decision Tree (2020): Before incorporating facial masks into my skincare regimen, I never considered the various benefits and nourishment they provide. Namely, I developed an improper assumption that these luxe items were out of my budget or only suitable for those with constant breakouts. As I delved deeper into exploring these potential wonders, I quickly learned that these masks aren't restricted to an acne-stricken demographic or those dealing with fine lines and wrinkles. There are masks, for example, that I've used to slow the procession of monthly hormonal breakouts, and others that provide gentle healing for my sensitive skin. After regularly dabbling in various masks, I can confidently assert that I've never experienced healthier, or more radiant skin.
I contend that one's first step to discovering the multifaceted benefits of facial masks is to scour the internet and investigate its numerous types and value. With countless mask options, ranging from funky custom scents to targeted treatment options, it's never been easier for anyone and everyone to reap the abundance of benefits and find the perfect match to improve the 'glass chip' in their own complexion.

Promising review: "Not gonna lie, I was skeptical about this product. A few months ago I decided to be adventurous and bleach my hair. But bleaching turned my hair into a crisp, unnatural mess that made me want to hide under a baseball cap. That worked when it was winter, but now it's warming up and I needed a solution. I saw this product highly recommended on other sites and the reviews were good. So I ordered a tube. WOW, DANG, and DAAAAGGONE! After using this product twice now, my ends feel soft!! After the second time washing with it, it actually moves like it's not damaged and it is visibly much healthier.
