Product details

Snail + bee venom essence
An all-in-one essence built on snail secretion filtrate, with bee venom, peptides and niacinamide for skin that needs extra care.
Benton’s best-known essence puts snail secretion filtrate first on the list, ahead of water. Bee venom, five peptides, niacinamide, adenosine and aloe join it to hydrate, soothe and help skin look clearer and smoother. The clear gel melts in without stickiness, and it is pH-balanced and slightly acidic.
