Heres what to know about Mantles Hydra Serum.
Others, rather, applyplacenta-spiked serumsto preserve their youth.
And then theressnail mucin, aka snail slime, the superstar K-beauty beauty ingredient that hydrates like a charm.
Ahead, everything you should probably know about the elixir that promises a dewy, more plump glow.
Similar to snail mucin, jellyfish mucin is an effective moisturizing agent.
So, topically, the ingredient helps support the skin barrier and prevents transepidermal water loss.
It simply sinks in to do its skin-soothing thing.
Ive been using it for more than two weeks now and have noticed an improvement in my moisture levels.
But its a fantastic way to sneak in some needed hydration kind of like Liquid I.V.
