Snail serum and snake venom are two powerful organic ingredients from Mother Nature's opposites and it's not hard to understand why these two components appear in wrinkle, stretch marks or acne treatments and creams.

We can all admit that the longing and curiosity for more natural and safer skin treatments and applications grows every day. All this longing and curiosity made it possible for scientists to discover new and effectual ingredients for natural skin care. In comparison to each other snake venom and snail serum are both very effective but have different beauty purposes.

Snail Serum for Skin Care

Helix Aspersa Muller, better known as the common garden snail, is one of the creatures that have grabbed scientist's attention.

To protect its own skin the snail produces a glutinous serum to moisturize, repair and renew its skin.

The serum taken from land snails has been found to be a powerful antioxidant and moisturizer that helps to protect, regenerate and repair damaged skin tissues.

We can basically say that the snail's own immune system within the secretion is used to create new natural skin care treatments. The snail serum is therefore used in treatment creams help to repair the so called senescent fibroblasts (the cells responsible for all the structures of the skin matrix).

A Bite From the Wrinkle Killer

When communicating such as frowning, speaking and laughing, we use about 60 muscles in our face. As you already guessed these repeated movements cause wrinkles in the deeper layers of your skin. However, treatments are available to get rid of these wrinkles without having cosmetic surgery or hurtful Botox injections.

Venom is the new ingredient that is extracted from the Temple Viper snake; a distant cousin of the rattlesnake. We have to admit though that there is something special and captivating about the snake venom - it can be both deadly and be used to heal.

The substance mimics parts of a polypeptide found in the venom. In the laboratory, scientist's let the snake bite a special container to release the venom. The amino acid in the venom is what blocks our nerve signals, telling the muscles to contract.

However, a synthetic version of the venom called Synake is used in these skin treatments. We can call it the wrinkle killer and its venom helps improve facial appearance of both men and women.

The unlikeness between the two powerful ingredients is that the venom works similar to Botox and snail serum is an astonishing moisturizer and antioxidant.
