My skin has reached that certain point where I feel like I need a little help from anti-aging products, particularly in terms of lifting and firming. Gravity has taken its sweet time and my skin isn’t as bouncy as before – I can actually pinpoint some areas already. These exact concerns are what the SNAILWHITE GOLD Age Renewal line aim to address so I’m happy to test out and see if the line can be my new anti-aging secret.
The SNAILWHITE GOLD Age Renewal line focuses on anti-aging and brightening. Contrary to what the name might suggest, the Thai brand isn't really focused on whitening but more on brightening and evening out the skin tone.
SNAILWHITE Whipp Soap Gold
I tried their 3-step routine for over a week starting with the SNAILWHITE Whipp Soap Gold (P345) as the face cleanser. The gold mentioned in the name is added as an ingredient to "even out the skin tone and regenerate new skin cells for a glowing complexion". Other key ingredients in the product are Niacinamide for "diminishing age spots and hyperpigmentation" and their SNAILWHITE Potion Advanced with Red Algae to "nourish and lock in moisture".
My skin feels clean and a bit taut after washing with the soap. While it isn’t low pH, I didn’t find it to be overly drying even after using twice a day. I did notice that the skin around my lips got drier than usual as this is the part of my face that’s quite sensitive.
SNAILWHITE Gold Cream
After cleansing, it's straight to moisturizing with the SNAILWHITE Gold Cream (P1,545). Similar to the soap, this contains the SNAILWHITE Potion Advanced with Snail Mucin, 24K Gold, Red Algae, Niacinamide, and Hyaluronic Acid. This is endorsed by Lucy Torres-Gomez, and I must say that her skin is simply radiant.
Similar to the SNAILWHITE Moisture Facial Cream, the Gold Cream has a pumping system to dispense. This is definitely better than dipping your fingers in a pot which may contaminate the product. And while using a spatula can easily address that concern, I’m quite pleased with how convenient this dispenser is. I also like the texture of the cream. It’s light yet moisturizing. However, it’s not moisturizing enough for the area around my lips so I’ve taken to applying an additional half pump of the product. My skin feels and looks firmer also and I like how makeup applies over it.
SNAILWHITE Gold Advanced Retinol Eye Cream
Step 3 in the routine is using the SNAILWHITE Gold Advanced Retinol Eye Cream (P795). It's a new product meant to address all eye area problems: fine lines, crow's feet, wrinkles, dark circles, and eye puffiness. To do this, they use a combination of the SNAILWHITE Potion Advanced with Snail Mucin, Pro-Retinol, 24k Gold, Niacinamide, Caffeine, and Hyaluronic Acid.
The dispensing method of the eye cream is very convenient. Using Airless Technology, they created an anti-contamination pump to release the product and the built-in eye wand is used to massage the product on the eye area. I also like this eye cream. My undereye area looks brighter these days and the fine lines are less visible. It also looks less puffy so I look more awake even if I didn’t get enough sleep. I feel like my eye area looks glowing and younger.
Before
After
Overall, the SNAILWHITE GOLD Age Renewal line is a good anti-aging line for me.
While I like the Whipp Soap Gold, I will use it more for my body moving forward than on my face. If they come up with a gentler formulation that’s less drying, I’ll be willing to try that out. I give it a 1.5/3 rating.
As for the Gold Cream and the Eye Cream, both of these are winners in my book with 3/3 ratings. I’m happy to discover a new anti-aging duo that works for my dry and dehydrated skin.
If the brand comes out with a Gold Essence Toner, I’d love to add that to the routine to help with the hydration.
