Product summary

"Ciracle - Repairing Snail Essence" is effective for: Anti-aging

This product could be helpful for: Moisturizing, but its actives are not the most effective or are not well-studied.

Ingredient callouts

Adenosine 0.05% - 0.20%. It is a compound that in involved in many biological processes inside the skin cells. According one high-quality clinical trial, topical Adenosine in low concentrations can somewhat help improve "deep wrinkles" - the wrinkles that appear with age in places where our faces are most dynamic (for example, on the forehead or in the corners of the eyes).
Humectants (polyglutamic acid 1.10% - 1.70% and snail secretion filtrate 1.90% - 2.90%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

Price

The product retails for 161.46A$ in Australia and from 23.32$ up to 25.60$ in the United States.

What can the product work for?

Does not work for

Anti-blemish
Evens skin tone

Anti-aging

What does the product description say?

The Korean brand addresses past, present and future skin conditions such as acne and blemishes, uneven skin tone and scars, and visible signs of aging with their extensive range of products.

This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains adenosine.

Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed to improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can “erase” wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.

adenosine 0.05% - 0.2%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Might help improve cell turnover and reduce inflammation in skin. One study shows that the ingredients might be able to help reduce dynamic wrinkles (for example, in the corners of the eyes or on the forehead)

lactic acid 0.1% - 0.4%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Insufficient!

An exfoliating and moisturizing alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). Typically causes less irritation than other AHAs, for example, glycolic acid. At high concentrations (about 15%), lactic acid can help reduce lines and wrinkles. Recent studies show that lactic acid can support the "good" bacteria living on skin's surface (healthy skin microbiome)

Moisturizing

What does the product description say?

Repairing Snail Essence

Source: From product name

This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": polyglutamic acid, snail secretion filtrate.

When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from within deeper layers of the skin. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).

snail secretion filtrate 1.9% - 2.9%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Typically contains hyaluronic acid that helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Might contain allantoin that is helpful in calming down inflammation. There is no evidence that it can have any further benefits for the skin, especially when used in skincare products

polyglutamic acid 1.1% - 1.7%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin.

adenosine 0.05% - 0.2%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM
