People use different types of pastes to beautify their faces. But what if you are told that if you want to make your face beautiful then cover it with snails. Yes, covering your face with a snail can seem like a nightmare. But you might be surprised to know that many influential people are doing this of their own free will. This controversial skincare practice is called ‘snail facial’.
Beauty creator Blinkaria Kohl is among those who have tried it and took to TikTok to share her experience. She told her 731 thousand followers (@blinkaria) that she did a snail facial at home and that she had got the snails from her garden.
Blinkaria wrote in her post, “I picked up the ones I loved, cleaned them and fed them so that they were happy… I put them on my face and will also admit that a few years ago I did this and got spots. . But this time when I did it, it did not happen.
“Now, snail slime contains lots of antioxidants that may help promote healthy collagen production and soothe inflammation. “This hyaluronic acid – is also effective in hydrating the skin.” His post soon received a flurry of comments, as many users couldn’t believe what they were seeing. One person wrote: “I have a phobia of snails, I could never do this.”
But can this really be true? Believe it or not, two experts claim there is some merit in using snail slime as a skin care product, but grabbing them from the garden isn’t the best way to go about it.
