The MIZON Story
The Original Snail Brand
MIZON launched in 2008 and was one of the first K-beauty brands to center an entire line around snail secretion filtrate — the ingredient that would become a global K-beauty phenomenon. Long before COSRX built a snail mucin category, MIZON was already selling it.
Today
MIZON remains a trusted affordable option for snail mucin and collagen-based skincare, sold in over 60 countries.

Hyaluronic Acid 100
Mizon's beloved 100 line in HA format — bouncy gel-serum with sodium hyaluronate + copper tripeptide-1 + ceramide NP at meaningful concentrations. The texture is genuinely bouncy (Sclerotium gum gives it the slimy-bouncy quality K-beauty fans love), and the formulation density at $13 is exceptional. The accessible-tier alternative to The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 with the addition of copper peptide and ceramide.
Snail Repair Eye Cream
Mizon's snail eye cream leads with snail secretion filtrate — glycoproteins, glycolic acid, and growth factors in a naturally occurring package — paired with Argireline peptide and niacinamide. At $14, it's the K-beauty eye cream that made snail skincare mainstream outside Korea. The formula is concentrated enough to address fine lines, dark circles, and dryness around the eyes without irritation.
