COSRX earns strong reviews as an effective, no‑frills skincare brand, with standouts like Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence, Acne Pimple Master Patch, and Full Fit Propolis Synergy Toner delivering hydration, calming, and visible acne relief. Reviews also note drawbacks: certain formulas feel sticky or slimy, can trigger breakouts or irritation on sensitive or dry skin, and some cleansers and exfoliants underperform or feel stripping.

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.
it! I received this product free for testing purposes from Influenster and COSRX, but you better believe I will be repurchasing it when I run out! If you were to say snail secretions and skincare in the same sentence, I would have thought you were a goner to Goop. Not anymore. COSRX sNAILED it with their Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence makes my skin SO soft, provides long-lasting hydration, and leaves me with a lasting supple glow. As for the texture? It’s slimy and will take some getting used to. We are talking about snail secretions after all… It layers marvelously with my other skincare products. You use 1-2 pumps after your toner, and before the rest of your skincare routine, without a pilling problem in sight. Usage and duration? Daily, for the foreseeable future! The COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence has become a Holy Grail item! It has replaced the more costly Drunk Elephant B-Hydra I was using and put Drunk Elephant to shame while doing so. While Escargo is still a no, when it comes to snail secreted skincare, I say GO GO GOOOO! Would I recommend this product to a friend? I will be recommending this product to a friend right after I make one! haha. If you are looking to plump it up and shine bright like a diamond, this product is for you!
I love the snail mucin product, use it every night after a toner, and it has helped calm my skin so much. I use their Low pH Goodnight Soft Peeling Gel as well after double cleansing and I can genuinely feel such a difference on my skin. It's silky smooth.
Cleared up my acne scars in one night, and I use it again and again and again. Never ceases to amaze me.

LOVE this sm! Leaves my skin feeling smooth, glowy, moisturized, and healthy. I usually use it at night after cleansing and before plastering my face with aloe vera. Sometimes I put it on before harsh products as well.
I've heard all about COSRX and the legendary snail mucin serum -- I didn't want to fall for it, but I did. And I'm not upset about it. It's a seamless integration into my nighttime moisturizer routine, light weight and I can see and feel the difference. There's many beauty fads out there, but I wouldn't call COSRX one of them. Would be happy and willing to try any of their other products.
My skin is GOING THROUGH IT right now. I went through and got rid of every skincare product that has pore clogging ingredients and replaced them, with so many from COSRX. Their products are very sensitive-skin, acne prone friendly and fairly priced. I've seen such great results, from the snail mucin to the sunscreen, I am genuinely a big fan of this brand and their products.
solid brand, so many great products
It's decently moisturizing and the texture wasn't as gross as it looks.
I love cosrx stuff - theyre like better formulated versions of the Ordinary .
Love their snail mucin I feel that it has made such a huge difference in my skins moisture barrier.
Really like the Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence! Took me a while to get to using it perfectly, gives me beautiful, glowing skin! Was apprehensive using it because of my acne prone skin, but frankly it calmed it and hydrated it even further.
Their products are affordable and (mostly) work. Their Low PH cleanser is a no-frills cleanser, didn't leave my combo skin feeling dry after using it. For those with sensitive noses, the cleanser is great as it doesn't have an artificial overpowering scent. With blackheads/pores, I tried their AHA/BHA toner but saw no results even after finishing a whole bottle. Their Snail Mucin sheet mask is amazing. My skin felt so soft and plump afterwards.

I am using their snail essence, as it was on Tik Tok. I like it but not sure what it really does, and if it really works as of yet. I am about 4 weeks into using it.
I really like this skin booster serum. It helped my skin tone be more even and it’s very hydrating. My skin feels smoother since I started using this a few weeks ago. I use it twice a day. I am loving 6 peptides all in one bottle. The packaging is very nice too.

Recommended by a friend, I picked up a bottle of the snail mucin 96% power repair serum. It has helped repair my skin barrier within ~ 1 week and leaves my super sensitive skin feeling hydrated and glowy!
My partner gets bad acne and every other pimple patch product hasn’t been effective, the cosrx has been the only effective one!! Everytime I have taken them off they have all popped on their own. You can honestly see it working within minutes. I also love the snail mucin and I’m sure a lot of you do but it truly does absorb all the other products in.
I've used their water-based facial cleanser and their pimple patches. Their cleanser was fine; nothing new with no outstanding results. I did, however, like their pimple patches a lot! I feel like most pimple patches don't work on my hormonal acne but this truly pulled all the gunk out of my pimple and left me with no hyperpigmentation scars!
I've been using their Hyaluronic Acid Toner for over a year and I absolutely love it. I have never used a toner consistently before this one. I've definitely noticed a smoother skin texture as a result. I love how the brand focuses on active ingredients and good price points.
I'm a huge fan of their staple product, snail essence. It's lightweight and hydrates the heck out of my skin. Def a must in your routine.
