New ingredients are constantly being introduced to the skincare sector. Some are well-known and accepted, while others are strange and intriguing to say the least. Snail mucin is one of the most recent substances to take the cosmetics world by storm.

Snails are gastropod molluscs with a spiral shell. They are terrestrial animals that move slowly thanks to the contractions and elongations of their bodies. In addition, these animals produce a slime that allows them to move on steep slopes.

SnailVille (Heliculture Serious Game for the promotion of sustainable snail cultivation businesses focusing on exports) is a European Project funded by the Erasmus+ Programme under the Strategic Partnerships for Adult Education.
