Having a dry skin is a big no-no especially when the age hits at 25 year-old because dry skin means the skin has lost its moisture which can lead to development of wrinkles, and pre-mature aging. The skin needs to be healthy enough to keep it from making you look older than your actual age. Nobody would want to look older than their age, anyway. We would love to have people keep guessing and amusing with our beauty.
I bought a 100g jar of Nella Fantasia Honey One Snail Ultra Moisture Cream from Althea Korea just a few weeks ago, and have been using it for 3 weeks now. The cream is supposed to improve the skin condition by giving the skin with more hydration as well as brightening the skin tone. It’s also claimed to improve the skin’s elasticity, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and pre-mature aging signs.
It’s understandable if you’re not familiar with the benefits of snail secretion. It has been used for ages, and recently a hype in Korean beauty. Check these benefits listed from the website which I found a few weeks ago. You might want to know the benefits of snail secretion.
According to snailfacialcream.com, when applied to a clean skin, the snail serum will fuse with your skin cells and (source):

What I Say
The cream comes in a brown plastic jar of 100g. It’s just a plain plastic jar with packaging sticker. The look can be quite deceiving as it only has sticker of the product description, and logo. The packaging is quite adorable, though. The product has a hygienic lid but no scoop available. One thing that I dislike about this product is the scoop which is not made available together with this product.
Nella Fantasia Honey One Snail Ultra Moisture Cream has a very cohesive and springy texture. This is because it is loaded with snail secretion, and honey. I also like this cream because of the thick, bouncy-like texture, and it absorbs into the skin faster. It does not make my skin feels sticky but it makes the skin look quite oily. My advice is not to apply this when going out. I’d prefer to apply this onto my skin during night, or when I just stay at home. It’s great to be used as sleeping pack because of its benefits in hydration, and skin restoration.
The hydration is superb, and can be paired up with liquid foundation, and BB cream. I tried a few times layering it with BB cream. I love the result because it leaves my skin moisturized, silky smooth, and glowing healthily. The cream may not brighten the skin but it actually helps to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and also heals my acne and pimples.
A jar of Nella Fantasia Honey One Snail Ultra Moisture Cream is sold at MYR 39.00. I find the price is rather affordable because I don’t need to get much of it to be applied onto my skin. Just a tiny bit of it should enough to cover whole face and neck. I also applied it onto my elbows, and knees because these are parts which are prone to dryness.
My Verdict
This is a great product for dry or matured skin. While it’s stated as to be suitable for all skin types, I would say this is just great for those who are looking to have a healthy, and youthful skin. The price is also affordable. I’d repurchase this product as it leaves my skin looking really nice though it may turn to be quite shiny especially on my T-Zone.
