You slap this jelly on, wait five minutes, rinse, and wonder why your pores still look like craters. Stop that.
The magic happens at minute 12—when the snail mucin actually starts pulling debris from deep inside. Most people bail before the real work begins.
It’s a wash-off jelly mask from Peach Slices that costs $13 and promises pore-clearing without stripping your face raw. I bought it because the word “snail” made me laugh, honestly.
Jelly-to-oil texture
Turns from a bouncy gel into a milky oil when you massage it off—gross but satisfying.
No-dry formula
Skips the clay that makes your skin feel like a desert. You won’t need moisturizer immediately after.
Pore-targeting claim
Says it “dissolves” sebum. I was skeptical. I’m still skeptical—but less now.

Snail mucin filtrate is the star—it’s not just slime, it’s loaded with glycolic acid and allantoin that gently exfoliate while hydrating. Niacinamide shows up to calm the redness you didn’t realize you had.
- Snail Mucin Filtrate: Exfoliates + hydrates without burning
- Niacinamide: Shrinks pores you didn’t know were huge
- Salicylic Acid: Sneaks in to unclog without the sting
- Allantoin: Makes your skin stop screaming at you

First touch: it’s like scooping up cold jelly from a dessert cup. Sits heavy on your face for the first 5 minutes, then slowly tightens—not in a drying way, more like a hug. Smells like nothing. Thank god.
Week 3: I noticed my nose pores looked… smaller? Not gone, but like they went on vacation. The weirdest part? My boyfriend asked if I was “wearing less makeup.” I wasn’t wearing any.

Deep blackheads on my chin? Still there, just less dramatic. The tiny surface ones? Gone by week 2. My skin got softer, not smoother—there’s a difference. It’s not a miracle, it’s a solid routine add.

It’s a good mask that does exactly what it says—if you’re patient enough to let it sit for 12 minutes. Don’t expect a pore eraser, but do expect fewer “what’s that on your nose” comments.
