Does it contain any special/beneficial ingredients?
Snail Secretion Filtrate: Has skin-repairing, hydrating, and anti-aging properties. It is also a source of glycolic acid so it will gently (imo the snail secretion filtrate itself is gentle because it has moisturizing properties to buffer any irratation) retexture and exfoliate the skin. 
Glycerin: Helps attract moisture to the skin.
Meadowfoam Seed Oil: Helps seal moisture into the skin.
Niacinamide: Has anti-inflammatory properties and helps boost collagen production.
Squalane: Has hydrating, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Beeswax: Has hydrating and anti-inflammatory properties.
Adenosine: Has skin "energizing" properties - from my understanding "energizing" here means it helps boost circulation and promotes collagen production.
Betula Alba Juice: Has hydrating properties.
Sweet Almond Seed Extract: Has hydrating, skin-smoothing, and anti-oxidant properties. 
Hyaluronic Acid: Helps skin retain moisture.
Copper Tripeptide-I: Helps increase skin elasticity and decreases the depth of wrinkles and fine lines. 

What is the texture like?
I would describe the texture as something that resembles a cold cream. This is very thick and hydrating but feels soothing, cooling, and refreshing - almost like a gel - when applied. 

Is it scented?
This has a very faint floral scent to it that is common in snail products.

My overall experience/comments on the product:
I have been absolutely loving this eye cream since I started playing with it. I opted for something with snail mucin because my eye area has just been feeling a bit dehydrated and lackluster lately so hydration was really the main thing I was going for. I can't say that in the week of me using this that I've noticed any significant brightening. That being said, I love the texture of this product and how it feels hydrating in a refreshing way. I love how it's thick but somehow not heavy and am excited to keep using it. I also love how both relatively inexpensive and huge the tub of it is!

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.

Disclaimer: I bought this myself.
