I spent most of my life with skin covered in red bumps and misery. Actually, some of it was so bad during pregnancy that I’ve got terrible scars on my face. I was in and out of dermatologists offices being given all kinds of substances that burned my face or poked with needles to try and teach my skin how to relax. Nothing seemed to work except time. Now that my skin has finally settled down, I want to take the best care of it possible. This is why I was excited about Elicina.
Elicina is a skin care cream that uses snail secretions as its main component. I know that sounds crazy, my mom almost threw up when I told her but then when I told her how it made my skin feel, she happily accepted my Elicina Pocket and Pocket+ to try for herself. Think about how much crazier it is that the products we put on our face daily contain a bunch of chemicals of which, let’s be honest, we really can’t be certain of the lasting effects. Using snail cream came up as a thought when snail farmers noted that scratches on their hands healed faster when they handled garden snails. Snail mucin is believed to have anti-aging, reparative properties because it increases the production of collagen and elastin. What could be more natural than that?
Yeah, yeah, technical jargon about snail goop but you want to know how it works, right? Well, I have all of the Elicinia products- the eye contouring, nourishing, and moisturizing and I love how they feel. When I put them on, they do not burn or dry my skin. On the contrary, they go on really creamy and make my skin feel smooth and tight. Elicinia is meant to decrease the appearance of wrinkles, stretch marks, scars, sunspots, keloids, burns and acne.
The eye contouring cream doesn’t harm my eyes and I use it to firm up my eyes as they seem to be aging more quickly than the rest of me! It’s intended to delay aging and decrease the wrinkles! I love how it feels and I apply it before I put on eyeshadow primers and such. It is working well so far!
I put the nourishing and moisturizing creams on before I apply my primer and makeup. It hasn’t made me break out even once so I would say it’s great for sensitive skin. I love how it makes my skin feel tighter and it’s become my perfect pre-makeup routine. The pocket products are great for when I need to do it all on-the-go, as a mom so often is! I really enjoy learning about makeup but I’ve been told many times before that there is no point in doing makeup if you can’t first take care of your skin. I’m extremely happy that Elicina is helping me to do that!
