Don’t be distracted by the title of this post; I promise you’re going to want to stick around for this one. Believe me, I was caught by surprise as well at how much more useful snails are than just being outside. Thanks to those beautiful creatures, my skin now has another reason to glow. Thank you, snail gel and Organic Doctor®!
A little science lesson before we continue:
There’s a secretion that snails use to regenerate their own shell and this secretion is what hydrates and moisturizes maturing skin. Since we’re all maturing, why not use snail gel all the time? Organic Doctor® actually obtains the secretion from Spain, where ethical and sustainable farming are practiced so no snails are harmed. This makes my heart even happier! Now let’s get into why my skin is happier 🙂
As I watch others age in beauty, I find that the first signs of age that appear are around the eyes. Now that we know that snail gel hydrates and keeps moisture, the Organic Doctor® Snail Gel Eye Serum is the perfect remedy for aging eyes! Believe me, it’s never too early to start treating this area. I see classmates the same age as me with issues such as crow’s feet around the eyes. Hopefully when I share this post on Facebook, they’ll learn about the secret of snail gel and how easily accessible it is 🙂
Upon cleansing my face, I apply this to my face immediately after and I just love the glow it gives my skin, even without makeup! Aside from the glow, my dry skin feels instantly hydrated. Double bonus for me!
Though there’s no particular instructions on the time of day to wear this, I prefer to wear mine during the day, right after my Organic Doctor® Snail Gel Facial Serum, for that added layer of moisture under my foundation. I actually did this before my makeup and it helped to enhance the dewy finish of my foundation. I even feel more confident wearing my matte foundations with my dry skin, due to all the hydration I have already soaked into my skin before application.
Upon my usage of Organic Doctor®’s Snail Gel line, I now have a bigger appreciation of what snails can do for my skin, naturally and I hope you do too!
Be sure to follow Organic Doctor® on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook at the hyperlinks and head to CVS and/or Amazon for these products and more from their line. I have also reviewed the Rose Otto lineup of products here for more skincare goodness!

I’ve heard of snail gel being beneficial for skincare, but have never tried any products that contained it before! I’m glad to know that you’ve tried and loved the results you’ve noticed with it. I agree, there’s no better time than now to start caring for your skin and do what you can to delay the first signs of aging. I’ll have to keep this brand in mind; I do love the the fact that gel is obtained in a way that’s ethical, it makes you feel better about using a product with an animal derived ingredient. Thanks for sharing, beautiful, and I hope you have a wonderful weekend ahead!

I have heard of great benefits of snail gels but I never tried them myself. I’m on a mission to start taking proper care of my skin so I will look into this product.

You make it sound lovely! I’m a little unsure as snail gel doesn’t sound very appealing, haha! But it’s wonderful it gives you the results you want 🙂
Hope you are having an awesome week so far! 🙂
YES snail cream has been so popular in Asia and I’m so happy it’s getting known here in the states too. I’m all about skincare so I love reading posts like these. Thanks so much for sharing!
This is so interesting! I have a snail gel sheet mask, but I love that they’re working this ingredient into other skincare products!

Your skin is so perfect that I am sold on any and all items you use in your skincare routine. I am gonna have to go get my snail gel right now!
I’ve never heard of this and boy am I surprised! Snail gel? Wow!! I have to look into this! I love organic skin care regimens and this one must be added to my list as well. Thank you Candace!
I was actually always hesitant about using products with snail in it (even though I love Korean skincare products), but these made me want to try them! I don’t have any problems with my skin drying out but I know I’ll hit that age sometime soon haha. Better to start earlier than later!

I was a little hesitant after reading the name but this stuff sounds fab! I love organic skincare and I currently don’t have a good eye cream. I’ll give this a try!
They sounds amazing! I would love to try them out!
Once heard of it and bought it togeher with my mom [for acne that time], it didn’t really workout well for me, but I’m sure it’s a great product you have there!! XO Charissa || http://www.ladygoldapple.com ||
I have heard about Korean beauty products with snail stuff in them, but had yet to find any to try. This sounds good, your skin is really glowing and looking amazing! I have used some Organic Doctor products before, I will have to keep an eye out for these now too.
