This vegan 'snail' mucin serum aims to deliver visible bounce and deep hydration with 81% cactus-derived mucin and bio-active peptides.
Glow Recipe founder Sarah Lee debunked the myth about harvesting snail mucin and said: "Unfortunately there are no safe methods to harvest the mucin without harming the snails - it's either electrical stimulation, spray them with chemicals like acid, or physically jab them. We have found a cruelty-free way that delivers the same, and that's cactus."
Prickly pear cactus reportedly stores moisture, heals damage and is packed with minerals, electrolytes, amino acids, fatty acids and more. It is also said to contribute in building a resilient and glowing skin barrier. Clinical studies show that after four weeks of using the Prickly Pear Peptide Hydrating Vegan Mucin Serum, 94% of testers showed a highly significant clinical improvement in skin density, and an improvement in reducing bumpiness and smoothing skin.
The serum is packed wtih 81% Prickly Pear Cactus extract, 3% bio-active peptides and ecotoin to support collagen production, and restore healthy skin.
