Model Emily Ratajkowski reveals the secret to her perfect skin is snail slime
MODEL Emily Ratajkowski has revealed the secret to her flawless skin is snail slime.
The US beauty, 28, who has 26million Instagram followers, swears by the ingredient snail mucin to keep her complexion dewy and smooth.
Emily told fans about her beauty hacks during an Instagram Question and Answer session.
She held up a bottle of COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence — which claims to use 96 per cent snail mucin to smooth skin.
A beauty source said: “Emily loves to use organic products and loves how soft the snail mucin feels on her skin, and it’s also inexpensive compared to most beauty brands.”
It comes as snail farming in Italy has increased 325 per cent in the past two decades, largely due to cosmetic demands.

A spokeswoman for COSRX said: “Snail filtrate helps protect the skin from moisture loss while improving elasticity, pigmentation and texture.
"It contains a natural production of glycolic acid, glycoprotein enzymes and copper peptides and is excellent at repairing skin damage, evening skin tone, fading hyperpigmentation including acne scars.”
The Gone Girl actress has previously admitted to suffering from low self-esteem despite her beauty.
