Skincare that contains byproducts from a snail, such as snail secretion filtrate, have been receiving rave reviews in the past few years - in particular the COSRX Advanced Snail Mucin essence - thanks to its anti-ageing and restorative properties. And one product that has wowwed shoppers containing this is the Mizon Snail Repair Eye Cream that has been described by some as a "fairytale eye contour".

Targeting puffy eyes, dark circles, wrinkles and pesky crows feet (more affectionately known as laughter lines), this cream is made with 80% snail mucin as well as niacinamide, adenosine and peptides as well as a handful of natural extracts. And it seems Amazon customers are pretty happy with its hydrating and skin tightening results - a result of the E.G.F (Epithelial Cell Growing Factor) component - with over 400 reviews.

One shopper wrote: "Saw a lot of good reviews for this eye cream and gave it a go- really does work on reducing dark circles and feels very hydrating. Definitely recommend!"

Another, who had seen results in just one day, said: "It works. I got this yesterday, used it yesterday evening and today in the morning, and it works, I am 63, do not have that much wrinkles however, I have started to have some puffiness under my eyes, specially under my left eye, and can see some approvement already."

"Dark circles and bags under eye CREAM WOW MUST BUY. Definitely would recommend this product to anyone who is dealing with chronic baggy eyes / dark circles. Solution to get rid of your dark/baggy eyes get better rest," added a third, while a fourth customer who left the cream five stars, said: "Miracle in a pot. Absolutely love this. Not only is it great for my eyes, but I've also used it on my forehead wrinkles. My skin looks and feels amazing."

While the majority of reviews are singing the praises of this cream, some shoppers have reported that this eye cream irritated their sensitive skin and explained that if you are prone to allergic reactions from skincare products, to avoid this cream.

Now, here in the UK, we are not short of eye cream options, so if Mizon isn't quite your cup of tea, there are a number of other options for you to try that have given miraculous results. For example RoC Retinol Correxion Line Smoothing Eye Cream is beloved by the likes of social media star Kim Kardashian and visibily brightens and depuffs eyes within four weeks.

Other have loved the Olay Collagen Peptide 24 Eye Cream which retails on the shopping site for £15.99. For something cheap, cheerful and bloomin brilliant, Garnier's Vitamin C eye cream is great for reducing signs of fatigue and fine lines - plus it's only £10.99 from Boots. And you can never go wrong with high end beauty brand Elemis whose Pro-Collagen Advanced Eye Treatment (£45) has had customers buying it time and again thanks to its ability to make eyes brighter and wrinkles more reduced.

If you're all about the snail mucin, however, Amazon is offering Mizon's Snail Repair Eye Cream for £17.84 here.
