The slime is increasingly used in the preparation of cosmetics and various products for skin and hair. But what are the main properties of this treatment, as is the production and what are the most suitable uses?
The snails naturally leave on the surfaces of a burr strip to their passage, and this can be taken, at least theoretically, without any disturbance or discomfort. In some cases, however, the breeding of snails for cosmetic purposes can be matched to that for food purposes and, therefore, it is good to check before purchase. Generally, the most famous manufacturers make explicit the methods for collecting the label.
For slime is meant the secretion, a jelly-like mucus, that this gastropod releases its passage. It is a concentrate of substances by the action mostly nutrient and moisturizing, that the snails are produced for specific purposes: adherence to surfaces, so that the animal can also move vertically, lubrication in contact with soils and hard walls, the hydration of the body and the deterrence of potential predators.
But what are these substances?
Allanton: for some time it has been proven the ability of this element to regenerate human skin, It is the most effective substance to repair scar tissue.
The allantoin is also an antioxidant that helps ie, fight free radicals that damage the skin and accelerate the aging process.
This ingredient, because of its exceptional properties, has long been used in cosmetics, but in summary form, it is obtained through the oxidation of uric acid.
Proteins & Vitamins: proteins and vitamins are good nutrients for the skin and the body in general. Vegetarian diet, made of fresh vegetables such as lettuces and vegetables such as carrots, It brings to our snails a large amount of proteins and vitamins that are also very effective in the fight against free radicals.
In particular:
Vitamin A: It helps maintain the conditions of cell membranes.
Vitamin C: It stimulates the synthesis of collagen and helps to prevent the destruction of collagen by the enzyme Collagen:Vitamin C also acts as an antioxidant and protector of cells.
Vitamin E: an antioxidant: It protects against damage to cell structures and reduces inflammation and moisture loss.
Collagen and Elastin: Elastin and collagen are proteins present in the connective tissue (particular fabric that provides to connect, nourish and support the tissues of various organs). Collagen is the main protein of connective tissue and is responsible for its compactness, of regeneration and hydration of the cells. Elastin on the other hand is a proponent of the elasticity of the connective tissue and skin in general.
Glycolic acid: The glycolic acid present in the snail secretion has a gentle exfoliating action allowing the removal of dead cells from the epidermis. Also it fights free radicals and stimulates collagen production.
Peptides-purifying: protect the skin from environmental stress and are effective in the prevention of infections, since they act as a protective barrier.
What are the benefits?
The slime has multiple properties: fights wrinkles, eliminates stretch marks and scars, moisturizes dry skin and fights acne. But we all see the benefits:
- For toning. It allows you to make more elastic tissue and tonics, with a significant benefit on wrinkles.
- For nourishing action. 80% of the skin is composed of collagen and elastin, substances also contained in the snail slime.
