On the advice of an old friend, very much into her expensive beauty products who has been raving about this stuff on FaceAche, as good as creme de la mer, saw almost instant result etc etc, - I went & bought a jar - she's right, ones you get past the name & remind yourself that whats in it, is no worse than some other branded stuff - I'm now a convert - its fantastic Grin-

I even put a bit on DDs skin flare up (urticaria) - made a massive difference in a day Grin - though she's now read the jar & is traumatised in the way only a dramatic 9 yr old would beHmm

Not selling it, don't work for H&B & posted on MN on & off for years - like I said - just sharing :)

Urgh... feel a bit sick after reading about their secretions.

If it was in a plain jar, with a fancy name, i'd have tried it though. :o

I'll start by saying this is defo not down to me!!!!

BUT, I do know a bit about snail cream. I guess the H&B stuff is similar to the original cream ELICINA.

I'll do it! thanks :)

got to admit I think they could have chosen a better name & not make it so obvious as to what it is Envy I really wasn't sure either - thankfully it smells lovely, so that helps & it really is brilliant stuff - its healed a burn on my nose (don't ask - not safe let loose near a cooker Hmm) in a day - massive difference on first application & its great for wrinkles & eye bags Grin

DD was really protesting at my putting some on a nasty sore, itchy urticaria/exzema like flare up on her inner elbows - about 5cm square :( , but after the difference it made after one application, shes sold & came back asking for more - 3 applications have cleared it completely - I'm amazed at how good it is :)
