I just have to share this: the scars on my cheeks are gradually fading thanks to this serum. I'm on my second bottle now, and even after the first one, I could see positive changes in my skin. Getting rid of scars takes time, slowly and almost without noticing, but if you compare the texture of my cheeks before using the serum and now, it’s a big difference.

Some by Mi Snail Truecica Miracle Repair Serum

The scars on my cheeks appeared because from around 2013 to 2017, my face was a disaster zone of severe acne. The long period of breakouts and all those facials left me with deep acne scars. I remember feeling so stressed because when I applied foundation, the uneven texture of my cheeks was super noticeable. Back then, my method to get rid of the scars was to constantly visit the clinic for peeling treatments, RF (Radio Frequency), and other treatments that felt like my face was being ironed, making me cry. Did they work? Well, the treatments were done once a month, so it was a slow process. But the serum’s effects were much better. I learned about Some by Mi Snail Truecica Miracle Repair Serum from Suhay Salim's vlog. When she mentioned it could remove scars, I was like, "Is this what I need?" Anyone who’s frustrated with scars will understand that feeling.

Alright, let’s talk about this holy grail of mine.

Packaging

If you see a small red bottle from Some by Mi, that's the Truecica Miracle Repair Serum. But be careful, Some by Mi also has another series called Red Tea Tree, which also comes in a red bottle.

The packaging of Some by Mi Snail Truecica Miracle Repair Serum is a transparent plastic bottle with a pump, making it easy to use and keeping it hygienic. On the front, it has the brand and product name Some by Mi Snail Truecica Miracle Repair Serum.

Texture & Aroma

The texture is liquid, thick, and clear. Even though it’s thick, usually one pump is enough for the entire face.

Ingredients

“If a snail has a scar on its skin or a wound that destroys its shell, it has the magical power to recover and heal itself. Snails have been on this planet for over 600 million years, and we borrow that power in this serum to help heal wounds on sensitive skin.”

This product contains snail truecica 890,000 ppm, using the power of the black snail to heal and repair damaged skin. Snail truecica is a mix of black snail mucin and truecica. Black snail helps with skin regeneration, repairing damaged skin, and providing resilience. Truecica softens, repairs, and protects the skin. Snail truecica helps erase blemishes on the skin.

Why use black snails? Because they have the strongest regenerative healing power for the skin.

Claims

The packaging states, "Black snail truecica complex will revitalize your skin." This product claims to improve skin conditions.

How to Use

Dispense one pump (or more if needed) onto your palm, then apply it all over your face. Gently massage until the serum is fully absorbed. Use it twice daily, in the morning and at night.

Since this is a serum, it should be used in the middle of your skincare routine. Apply this serum after essence; if you don’t use essence, apply it after toner. Don’t forget to use a moisturizer as the final step.

My Experience with Some by Mi Snail Truecica Miracle Repair Serum

In less than a month, it’ll be a year since I started using this serum. Let’s take a close look at the state of the scars on my cheeks before using snail truecica serum.

BEFORE:

This photo was taken in July 2017. Even though it’s from 2017, my scars didn’t change much until 2019. In this photo, I’m wearing powder, so imagine how the uneven texture looks without powder or with foundation. My skin had many scars, was rough, dry, showed fine lines, was dull, and had visible large pores.

AFTER:

This photo was taken in April 2020 without wearing powder, only sunscreen. After nine months of use and finishing one bottle of serum, the scars didn’t completely disappear but the progress was visible. My skin became smoother and the texture improved.

The significant change I noticed was the scars. For older red acne scars, it’s hard to fade them, but this serum helps eliminate newer acne marks. If you use this serum diligently after a breakout, the marks disappear quite quickly.

The instant effect I like from this serum is that when applied to the face, it feels nice, making the face feel supple, firm, and smooth. In the morning, the face looks good, like clothes that have just been ironed. But if the next day I’m lazy to use this serum, my face feels back to its old texture. So, to keep the face truly supple, firm, and smooth, you need to use it daily. The most important thing is to be patient. You can see in the after photo, my face looks smoother and not as rough.

Where to Buy?

You can get this product at Bglow (Shopee) for Rp 175,000. The price has dropped; I used to buy it for Rp 210,000. Or you can buy it at Daily Beauty Kudus.

Conclusion

This product is for anyone with complex skin problems, especially acne scars, dull skin, and shallow wrinkles. If this second bottle runs out, I plan to repurchase. So here’s the summary:

Pros:

1. Visible progress on the skin (before: dull skin, visible scars, many red acne marks, very noticeable open pores. After almost a year of usage: slightly brighter skin, scars fading but not 100% gone, red acne marks fading, open pores still visible but less noticeable.)
2. Dries quickly on the face
3. Makes skin feel supple, firm, soft, bright, and "healthy"
4. If used at night, the face looks better in the morning
5. Economical. One pump is enough for the entire face. Unless you have a big face.

Cons:

1. Takes a long time to remove old scars
2. Hard to remove old acne marks

Oh, for those of you who have tried this product, please share your experiences too. Thank you!
