Ok, not to make this all weird and culty - but these actually work pretty well. Added to my skin care regimen between the shower and my lotion - really have minimized breakouts.
My skin also seems firmer - and scars seem less noticeable - but I'm not sure if that's a result of continuous use and what would happen if I stopped.

Can someone tell me how this product is made? Do they kill the snails in the process? I'm not into products made from harvesting living creatures, sorry.

Got mine this week! My pup thought it (like all things that come in the mail) was a treat for him—right up until I started putting it on my face. I've been on a coconut oil/olive oil skincare diet and am real excited to incorporate this into my routine :)

Ok so I bought this lotion because I have a lot of acne dark spots/scars and wanted to see if this would work. I am also a guy and I don't really use a lot of lotion but I would like to give my review.
TEXTURE AND SMELL So the lotion smells kind of flowery, but not overwhelming so. After you rub it into your skin you don't really smell it. In texture it's not like traditional white lotion, it's more like a gel for your hair. It's not sticky as you would expect from snail slime, but it's viscus enough to to spread over your skin easily. I like it and I don't think the texture or smell could deter someone from buying this.
SKIN RESULTS Ok so I tested this on my face for two weeks straight. My routine was every night I would exfoliate my face with some Clinique men exfoliate cream stuff and then apply this lotion all over my face. So after two weeks I noticed a very small change in my dark spots, and I'm pretty sure they would have gone away if I had used it longer. What was very noticeable was the smoothness of my skin. My skin became very smooth and had great elasticity. It looked and felt healthy. People told me I looked thinner. It got rid of small blemishes and stuff like that. It's pretty good.
VERDICT I think for the price you can't really lose. If it doesn't work it's not too much money you lose, but if it works you got more than your money's worth. It worked for me but it does not mean it will work for you. Everyone has different skin but I think this will provide even a small positive change
TLDR: I would recommend this product. It provided me with good results and for this price I don't think you can go wrong.

I joined the last drop of this, have been using it for a few weeks now, and wow! I've already noticed a measurable amount of fading in my stubborn acne scars - it definitely boosts the healing of these spots way more than my previous vitamin C serum ever did. It also goes on light (I can't feel it on my face after dabbing it on), and smells surprisingly good with a very light scent. I'm a total snail convert now.

Okay so I bought this on a whim after reading some good reviews. I received it relatively quickly (Australian here), and after using it for two weeks I would definitely recommend it. I have fairly normal to dry skin tone, and occasionally get the oily 'T'.
I was using a moisturiser (Olay Moisturiser Lotion for Sensitive Skin) after showers and found that sometimes it made me red and rashy and kind of allergy-like reaction. Whilst it isn't very moisturising, I've replaced my moisturiser with this and had no issues. My skin feels smoother and I can visibly see improvements on my (very faint and mild) acne scars, it's improved my skin tone unevenness too! I honestly did not believe this would work so thought I would share my experience, as it has been a positive one.
I did try to look for this from other shops and saw that it is a bit cheaper on aliexpress, however I cannot comment on whether or not they are genuine.
Edit: I do want to add that it seems to run out quite quickly, I use a small pinky size dab once a day and I'm pretty sure I'm at least half way through my first pack after two weeks.

For anyone considering this product and is on the fence, I give my recommendation and it's not something I give lightly. It has amazing healing properties for healing acne, scars, hyper pigmentation, and post inflammatory erythema. It's hydrating and sinks into the skin after a few minutes. It is meant to be used after actives and essences and before moisturizers. It does feel slightly sticky but the residue isn't bothersome but I use it at night time because it doesn't layer as well under makeup. If you are interested in Asian (mostly Korean and Japanese) skincare, check out the Asianbeauty reddit. This is the lowest price I've ever seen it so I'm stocking up and buying 4 lol. The other Benton products are great too but it has been reported to break some people out so always patch test.

For anyone who hasn't heard about this:
“So it’s a worm infection introduced into North America through globalization,” said Peter Hotez, the dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine. “Some suggest that it’s due to snails or slugs in the ship ballasts—ships coming from Asia and going through the Panama Canal.” The parasite that causes rat lungworm disease is now endemic in the southeastern United States, and it’s expected to spread northward https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2017/04/when-globalization-brings-brain-invading-worms/522153/
