Came across the Some By Mi Snail Truecica Miracle Repair Serum. Has anyone used this one and the COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence and have any thoughts between the two? 

Some By Mi vs COSRX

The patch of skin above my nose and between my eyebrows tends to be redder than everywhere else on my skin. In addition, the skin around my eyes and the bridge of my nose are quite light and so the redness seems even brighter. Does anyone have any products that they would recommend to target redness that have worked for them? Or might know what this is a result of?

don’t really have anything bad to say about it though it might not be hydrating enough for drier skin types!

💭 𝚌𝚕𝚊𝚒𝚖𝚜: refreshing, hydrating toner for perfect oil-water balance

👩🏻 𝚖𝚢 𝚎𝚡𝚙𝚎𝚛𝚒𝚎𝚗𝚌𝚎: i typically keep the toner in the fridge and use it to soak my compression mask (helps me wake up in the morning) –– the large size leaves me feeling less guilty about doing so 😂 it&#39;s a simple no-fuss hydrating toner that keeps my skin hydrated and it&#39;s super easy to layer with my other products.

* note: received as pr

💰 𝚌𝚘𝚜𝚝: $32/100mL = $0.32/mL⁠
⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
💵 𝚛𝚎𝚙𝚞𝚛𝚌𝚑𝚊𝚜𝚎 (𝚒𝚗𝚒𝚝𝚒𝚊𝚕 𝚝𝚑𝚘𝚞𝚐𝚑𝚝): ⁠i haven't noticed any significant changes to my skin and find it to be a bit pricey for what it is so i probably wouldn't repurchase it at this time.⁠


💭 𝚌𝚕𝚊𝚒𝚖𝚜: ⁠essence to calm irritated skin and strengthen the skin barrier⁠
⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
✨ 𝚔𝚎𝚢 𝚒𝚗𝚐𝚛𝚎𝚍𝚒𝚎𝚗𝚝: 100% centella asiatica extract⁠
⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
👃🏻 𝚜𝚌𝚎𝚗𝚝: not really noticeable imo⁠
⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
👩🏻 𝚖𝚢 𝚎𝚡𝚙𝚎𝚛𝚒𝚎𝚗𝚌𝚎: ⁠this essence is very interesting. although it has a very watery texture, it actually goes on with a slight oily feel to it. thankfully, the oily feeling does not linger. it is easy to layer and  is a nice addition to my routine.⁠
⁠⁠⁠⁠

there wasn’t really anything noteworthy for me to note here!

i was completely surprised by this one&#39;s appearance as i was expecting it to be like the i&#39;m from rice toner, but i do like this one more as i&#39;m partial to toners that are 𝘸𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘺 and 𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘸𝘦𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵! ⁠
⁠
this toner contains 𝟖𝟎% 𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐚 𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 (soothes), 𝟏𝟎,𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐩𝐩𝐦 𝐨𝐟 𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐧 𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 (brightens and nourishes), and 𝟒 𝐭𝐲𝐩𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐡𝐲𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐝 (hydrates) for calm, bouncy, and healthy skin. i find it very comfortable to use and refreshing. can&#39;t wait to pop it in the fridge!⁠

So far, I haven’t come up with anything bad. It is a bit pricey for the size though (but maybe that’s because my usual line-up is much more wallet friendly).

I still can’t believe I saw results so quickly with this product. My skin had been overly oily (I think mostly due to dehydration). I found this product in my drawer (it was a gift from her friend who is a soon-to-be dermatologist) and decided to give it a try. The next morning I didn’t wake up with the layer of oil that I had been waking up to in the mornings for the last few weeks. My skin felt so smooth and rehydrated. Also has no scent which is good (even though I personally don’t love that, I know scents can be irritating to some).

The only thing that was a bit strange for me was that it could be a tiny bit grainy at time. Not sure why the texture changed a little in the middle.

I love this cleansing balm! The texture is soft and easy to work with. There is a light scent but not fake or overwhelming. However, if you might have sensitivities to fragrance, this may be an issue. The cleansing balm was also easy to emulsify once water was added to the skin!
