It’s about women. It’s about beauty. It’s about time.
This One Weird Ingredient Works Better Than The $200 Serum I Was Using.

This 96% Snail Mucin Essence is quietly changing the way Black women care for their skin — one glow-up at a time.
I’m 53. And when people see me, they usually think I’m much younger.
But that wasn’t always the case.
For years, I’d wake up, look in the mirror… and my skin looked dead.
It felt dry. It looked dull. Lifeless.
And it made me feel old.
I even started putting on foundation before going to the gym.
Not to impress anyone—just so I could feel confident enough to leave the house.
Even in workout clothes… I didn’t feel like myself unless I covered it up.
I hated that.
But then I discovered something I had never even heard of before.
Now, I don’t wear makeup at all. I don’t want to.
Because my skin glows. It feels soft. It looks vibrant.
And when strangers stop me and say, “What are you using on your face?”
I finally have an answer:
Yep. Snail mucin.
It sounds crazy. But stay with me—because this might be the secret you didn’t know you needed.
Snail mucin is a powerful skincare ingredient that’s been used in Korean beauty routines for decades.
And I didn’t find it through TikTok or some trendy ad.
I found it because of my husband—a world-class martial artist who trains students around the world.
One of his female students from Asia shared this “crazy” skincare secret with him.
He told me about it. I looked it up. I was blown away.
I asked my girlfriends if they had heard of it—none of them had.
So I went straight to the source and found the top supplier of 96% snail secretion filtrate.
I tested it on myself. And what I experienced?
Was a game-changer.
Let’s be real:
The beauty industry wasn’t built for us.
They don’t test on our skin.
They don’t talk to us in their ads.
And they certainly don’t design their formulas with melanin in mind.
Hyperpigmentation and melasma
Uneven skin tone after breakouts
Dry, tight skin from winter heating
Oily zones and dull zones at the same time
After I started using it consistently, everything changed.
I didn’t need foundation anymore.
My skin tone evened out.
My face didn’t look “dead” in the morning—it looked alive.
Vibrant. Bright. Hydrated.
I felt confident again.
Like myself again.
And when people started noticing and complimenting me, I knew:
This wasn’t just working…
It was powerful.
I’ve been in the beauty and wellness space for decades.
And I’ve always believed that Black women deserve better.
Better formulas
Better representation
Better results
So when I saw what this essence was doing for me, I knew:
I had to bring this to more women like me.
That’s how My Melanin Skin Care was born—under the Black Woman Lifestyle brand.
And this product? The 96% Snail Mucin Vital Repairing Essence?
It was the first thing I released. Because it was the first thing that truly worked.
Fade dark spots and acne marks
Hydrate without clogging pores
Smooth fine lines and rough texture
Calm irritation and redness
Give you that soft, dewy glow—without makeup
