How soon can I expect visible results?

Is The COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence vegan-friendly?
COSRX collects mucin naturally without applying pressure or harm to the snails. While the essence contains snail-derived filtrate (not vegan), the harvest process is ethical and eco-conscious, aligning with the brand’s sustainability values.
