One of those foods you either loved or hated as a child, mushrooms will always be the centre of dinnertime debates. However, when it comes to skincare, there's no argument; the natural powerhouse ingredient has quickly become a must-have in everyone's spring skincare harvest due to it's rich antioxidant content and soothing benefits.
What are the benefits of mushrooms in beauty?
- High in antioxidants - keeping the skin protected from environmental aggressors such as pollution, antioxidants shield the skin from damage and keep it free from irritation.
- Contain adaptogens - naturally found in mushrooms, adaptogens promote a healthy stress response throughout the body, helping to keep the skin soothed and calm.
- Contain beta-glucen - helps to maintain a strong and healthy skin barrier, in turn, keeping the skin supported and shielded from aggressors.
- Rich in vitamins - including vitamin D, which helps with a number of skin concerns.
