Why Snail Slime Is A $500 Million Industry | Big Business | Business Insider

There is a snail in Algeria, the Aspersa type

They were not created for abuse Stop there are more ways for beauty....

All creatures are loved. Don't abuse them Read KJV Holy Bible Pray Care Read Mark 16:15-16

Dear All,I’m Anjan from India(Kolkata) and i want to start snail farming so, anyone can properly guide me like which snail framing is the good for Indian(Kolkata) weather and some machines dealer and many more …..

Interesting to see people sympathizing with snails.

"Doesn't kill the snails" yeah, so we can kill them after a little bit... had to manipulate the information for clickbait I guess

I hope you awful people that work there come back as snails in your next life

So here it is ladies, rub this snail slime on your face and tomorrow you will look 10 years younger...😅 Bull semon in Red Bull wtf?

Lot of uneducated folks in here….it’s laughable the ignorance.😂

Truly hope all you guys wining about the snail treatment are vegans.

Wow. Watched the ENTIRE video (its under the title of this one), and i was SO relieved to see THEY DIDNT KILL THEM to extract the slime! But THEN, then at the end, they said no part is wasted and the snails are crushed, dissected, and sold for their shells and as escargot and other delicacies. Oh, and same with the eggs- apparently snail caviar is some elite 💩 NOW I AM SAD AGAIN 😢

So, do you feel more beautiful now after using these beauty products? 😮

So basically its snail adrenochrome smfh poor lil guys 🙁

Please how can I reach out to you...

"Stimulate the snails instead" Sexy 🐌

Snail slime used in beauty products, which people apply all over their face: just yuck!

"It can improve wrinkles" nah, thanks, I don't need more wrinkles.

So was this torturing them? Please im about to buy snail mucin skincare 😭😭😭

Have you no shame ?

I hope all of the animal rights activists in these comments are also vegans. Otherwise, I wish the commenters here had this same kind of fire when it came to the inhumane treatment of other animals, like cows 🙄. They experience a lifetime of suffering and there’s so much waste leftover, unlike what is covered in this video.

I wouldn't mind if the screenwriter had just been truthful about the snails' demise. Nonetheless, the announcer claims that the slime-extracting machine does not kill the snails for 90% of the video. You don't find out that they actually use ozonated water to kill the snails until almost the very end.

When I was a kid we had to hunt for snails to eat something so my father puts the lid we go outside and when we are back the walls are full of snails and the lid was moved those guys are strong together 😂😂😂 Now I don't eat snails I like them alive

the slime must flow

you all are SICK!!!!! Let these snails be...

The SpongeBob movie warned us of this

manjare🤌

World full of psychos, and calling this acid bath as their spa day?😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰

Humans are the most dangerous species of all time...They can do anything to anyone and everyone for their benefit 😢

"Turn that body into GDP" 🎶

Did I JUST hear what these idiots say right!? Why the eff would you ever kill them after 3 to 4 uses!? Are you friggin kidding me right now! They just basically use them 3 to 4 times & then kill them!? THAT IS SOOO WRONG! I WAS EXPECTING THEM TO SAY THAT BECAUSE THEY'VE DONE ALL THIS WORK THAT THEY WOULD RELEASE THEM INTO A FOREST! BUT INSTEAD YOU MURDER THEM! I AM GOING TO MAKE IT MY MISSION AS A PRODUCT TESTER & REVIEWER TO FIND THIS BRAND & TO SHOW THEIR CUSTOMERS THIS VIDEO & SEE IF IT'S OK WITH THEM USING SNAIL MUCIN FROM USED & MURDERED SNAILS! WHY CAN'T YOU DO RIGHT BY THEM & RELEASE THEM BACK INTO THE WILD! OH YA, I FORGOT, BECAUSE LIKE PIGS, YOU USE "ALL THE PARTS", YOU'RE THE FRIGGIN PIGS, THIS COMPANY IS! AND PPL ARE OK WITH THIS OR IS THIS COMPANY TELLING THEM LIES😢I use snail mucin but I make sure before purchasing to do a little homework to see how the mucin is collected & what happens to the little fellows! I WILL NOT USE A PRODUCT, I DON'T CARE HOW EFFING GOOD, IF IT IS TESTED ON ANIMALS & FOR THIS ITALIAN COMPANY TO JUST ADMIT MURDER LIKE IT'S NOTHING! MY MOTHER, REST HER SOUL, WAS 💯% SICILIAN & AFTER WATCHING THIS, FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE, I AM ASHAMED! This is NOT right & NOT fair to those poor snails & I DON'T CARE IF IT'S ONLY A SNAIL, IT IS STILL LIFE! WHAT PISSES ME OFF THE MOST IS THAT THEY DON'T HAVE TO KILL THEM AFTERWARDS, THEY'RE JUST PLAIN GREEDY! THEY CAN JUST AS EASILY RELEASE THEM INTO THE WILD! THEY DID SOMETHING FOR YOUR COMPANY, SO AT LEAST YOU COULD & SHOULD RELEASE THEM & STOP MURDERING THEM FOR MORE MONEY! $60 A BOTTLE!? IT'S CRAP ALREADY, THE PRODUCT IS WAY OVERPRICED & DOESN'T COST THAT MUCH TO MAKE! PLUS THEY ADD FRAGRANCE! YUCK! DISGUSTING PRODUCTS AT RIDICULOUS PRICES, MATCHES THE COMPANY PERFECTLY! NO WONDER WE'RE STILL THE WAY WE ARE! ALL OF LIFE IS STILL NOT VALUED! IT'S JUST USED UP & KILLED! SHAME ON THIS COMPANY, MURDERES 🐌❤️🐌❤️🐌 LET THEM LIVE OUT THEIR DAYS IN THE WILD! RELEASE THEM! STOP MURDERING THEM AFTER YOU'VE USED THEM ALL UP! PPL LIKE YOU ARE HOLDING US BACK! FRIGGIN MONEY HUNGRY IDIOTS😤🤬

Did anyone else hear the iPhone ringtone in the background?

interesting discussion in the comments. what is more "humane" or how ever you want to put it? killing less by "milking" 4 times or killing more by killing 4x amount. i do think its more a script issue and the way they wrote it.

Weird ass people. I could never let a snail on my face

Simone looks like a molusk in human form.....

Why does everyone care about these snails? The French eat these guys every day. Stop whining.

- 5:00 They DO kill the snails eventually though. So they still *die* 🐌 🐌 🐌

This is disturbing

For God’s sake people it’s just a snail.. In Asia it’s considered a rice field pest. Good thing we have an alternative use for it, and an alternative income for farmers.

This is absolutely horrendous 😢 the poor little smushes

I understand why everyone is so pissed here, but we all need to understand that these snails are specially bread only for this purpose. Just like chickens. And pigs and all other animals we eat. So snails are literally born to die in this case. I don't say it's right, but this is their purpose ngl sooo 😅

yep nope I'm not buying it I changed my mind

@jameswelsh

Im never buying anything with snail!

Animal abuse

Womp womp, couldve had a good vid but u had to mislead everyone

I don’t see why people are upset about snails being killed. The French eat tonnes of escargots all the time.

From snails are not harmed in this process to snails are euthanized.

Why are they euthanized? What the hell

The Simone guy lied in the Great Big Story video. He said the snails are doing a spa day in that video. But we find out in this one they are getting sprayed with an acidic solution that activates their defense mechanism???

Hi. Welcome to my giant snail farm❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉
