As a young girl I watched my mom using all the slime removing trick from
washing snail slime off with alum, garri, salt, lime to soaking in hot water
just to make sure to get out all the stickiness and mucous "draw-draw"
from the snails before she cook with it.
Who would believe that those unwanted mucous waste from snail has already
been discovered by beauty researchers as a beauty enhancing treatment, trust
all this our adventurous"oyinbo" celebrities they will not rest until they use it no
matter how much it cost. I even heard that they pay plenty money in spas to
get facials of real live snail crawling all over their faces....common snail slime
"draw draw". Did I hear you say common? snail slime is not common again
(yes snail can be found everywhere in Nigeria though its seasonal and more
abundant and cheaper during the rainy season but we can't call snail slime
common again it has upgrade) because after much research and study beauty
researchers have found out that snail slime is packed full with skin care
nutrients and anti-aging enzymes like glycoproteins enzymes, peptides
hyaluronic acids, glycolic acids, elastin proteins and natural skin filler/plumper,
no need for botox filler.
When next you are looking for natural acne treatment solution
extract some snail slime onto your face if you can't stand the
live ones crawling on your face like me- just the thought of having
snails crawling on my face gives me the jitters!!!
and fills out the creases and pits of acne scars.
Snail slime delays skin wrinkling due to aging by relaxing the
muscle fibers that bring about wrinkles.
Snail slime is a magic wand to younger and smoother looking skin,
its very effective in reversing accumulated sun damage on the skin
and improving the overall texture of the skin.
With these skin care benefits of snail slime, the next snail
I get my hands on "go hear am" (just kidding...no am serious!!!),
I must extract all the slime and mucus and this time around
no need for alum and lime....my hand can do the trick.
