COSRX reviews and discussion

COSRX has some real gems—simple, effective formulas that are gentle on the skin and budget-friendly. Their cleansers and toners are staples in my routine and have always been reliable. But honestly, the *Snail Mucin Essence* didn’t live up to the hype for me. It felt sticky, didn’t do much, and ended up breaking me out. Just goes to show that not every viral product works for everyone!

COSRX offers effective, affordable skincare with clean ingredients and a focus on results. I’ve seen real improvements in texture and breakouts, especially with their snail mucin and exfoliating products. Some formulas can be a bit sticky or take time to show results, and not every product works for every skin type. Still, it's a solid, dependable brand with great value and thoughtfully formulated options.

Bought this because of the hype (and social media). The good: it absorbs well, is not sticky, doesn't seem to have perfume, comes in a nice container and dispenses easily. The bad: I don't see any results from it after 6 weeks of use. Pro tip: it's almost always at TJ Maxx or Marshalls for a discounted price.

Something I can’t believe about this brand is how affordable their products are for how innovative and effective the formulas are. They have really gentle soothing products but also potent actives that will really give you results.

I am a huge fan of Korean skincare and have tried several ton of brands. COSRX is popular because they are reliable and make good, noj irritating products. I like their moisturizers but have found their toners to not really make a noticeable difference.

Snail mucin essence & snail 92 cream are the real deal! The only advice I have is don’t use it everyday. After only 2 weeks I’ve noticed tremendous results in faint fine lines becoming almost nonexistent & acne scars slightly faded.

I like the snail essence from the this brand therefore have high hope on this dual essence. Would think is 2 times better but I am not too sure.

I am very impressed with The Alpha-Arbutin 2 Discoloration Care Serum. I have tried many OTC and prescription skincare products to try to fade my hormonal hyperpigmentation and post-acne scarring. Some of those products were very expensive and didn’t help me achieve the fading level I was anticipating. I have very fair skin and any type of dark spot is a big contrast between my skin tone. Dark spots take an extremely long time to fade so finding a product that will help speed that process up is important to me. I am shocked at how affordable Cosrx has made this serum. The ingredients are extremely high quality and potent. I like that the bottle is not clear so that it helps extend the potency of the serum. I like how the ingredients help support my already reactive and irritated skin, helps retain moisture in my skin and helps brighten my skin tone. It’s a very lightweight and thin consistency. It’s easily absorbed into the skin and it doesn’t leave any lingering residue on the skin

I purchased the Cosrx Advanced Snail 98 Mucin product, and I have to say it's impressive. After just a few days of application, I noticed my skin became firmer and more even in tone, with a noticeable radiance. The amount of product is also amazing—I haven't even used up half of it, and I've been using it for six months.

Absolutely love! Just began using it and I’m seeing results! Feels amazing, non irritating! The pricing is phenomenal! My skin feels so soft! This is my current fav

First of all I got hemmed up watching tiktok reviews and honestly SMH but I was so curious I just had to...first week in as I passed a mirror and said oh sh!t I think I see something happening. I never look in the mirror because my skin is terrible so why keep looking at it and have tried everything on the planet nothing helps. Well let me tell you this is the real deal. I'm at the end of the two week mark and I'm in total WTF. The difference is a real, what am I looking at. I can't wait until more time has gone by. We're talking year's of dark deep hyperpigmentation, still there but it's definitely getting better. Two days ago I ordered their niacinamide to add to my regimen. All the talk is true and I mean that. The pricing is so fair that you're almost forced to just give it a try.

Love this brand. The hype is legit. The Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence is beyond hydrating. It is a part of my morning and night routine. This was my first snail mucin product and I was both curious and hesitant to use it. I know that trying K beauty can be something that's intimidating when you've never tried it before. CosRx is definitely worth giving it a try. I have yet to find a product made by them that I don't like. If you want to add some innovative products to your skincare routine, I don't think you can go wrong with CosRx.

ADVANCED SNAIL 96 MUCIN POWER ESSENCE 100/10 I have been struggling with acne since I was 12 I am 22 now.. this stuff CLEARED my skin I use it like 4 times a day and I’ve gone through 4 bottles already

When I first heard about COSRX, I was intrigued but thought it was just the latest fad or trend that wasn’t going to last. Finally I gave in and purchased the all in one cream. After getting over the fact it was very slimey and goopy, I gave the product a real go. Now I love it, I’ve just purchased the retinol 0.5 oil, which I will be testing soon. The gel is very good for my skin , it makes it tacky for a while but it does take it in and absorb it. My skin is hydrated and very nourished with this a part of my routine. This is a Korean brand I believe, in which again, I have not really had much experience with. If you haven’t tried COSRX yet, I would recommend starting with the all in one cream like I have done. You can use it when you want , morning or night up to you. I’m hoping I will be impressed with my latest purchase with COSRX

I LOVE THIS !!! I own the toner and snail essence and my skin has never felt better. Both products works amazing on my skin and I definitely see huge differences as I get a more moisturized and hydrated face. Also the products are very lightweight

Oh this spf is my all time favourite! Light, smoothing, watery texture, easy to apply. It doesn’t leave my skin greasy and no white shade 💪

I purchased the COSRX Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence, even though I heard mixed reviews. Some people said it made them break out. Luckily, that didn't happen with my skin, I was able to test this product before purchasing it. I was visiting my sister and she had the product in her skincare lineup. I used it every day and I loved how it made my skin feel and look. I apply it to damp skin and use it after my serums but before my moisturizer. Hopefully, I will get to try more products from this brand n the future.

I simply love their products. I was looking for something to keep my skin healthy, glowing and moisturize and that keeps the moisture locked in. And ever since I started using the snail mucin I have been loving it. Game changer. I got the small one to try out and when I went back I always only see the small one and so I just buy couple it. It’s worth the hype.

I was tired of constantly fighting my skin and embarked on a journey to get the clear youthful skin I deserved. I was pleased to find that the skin of my dreams in a Korean beauty inspired routine. The best part is that nearly all the products I tried were relatively inexpensive and readily available from amazon. My acne is non-existent now and the tone and texture of my skin is so supple and smooth. I have provided a list of my routine below which includes this product. I’m not saying this is the best or only way to achieve my results, I just thought others would be interested in what I used.

I really love their snail mucin. It really soothes my combination skin. It gave me a dewy look which I also loved.
