Question:
My skin is extra sensitive with certain skincare products. I could only use certain brands. So one of the face creams I am looking for has SPF. But one of the Ingredients is “Snail secretion filtrate”. I want to know if that is allowed
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Answer:
Although the ingredients in the products include Snail secretion filtrate it will be permissible to use. This is due to the fact that in the processes of making the cream the ingredients go through so much change that they turn into another substance.1
Only Allah knows best
