MUSHROOM 101

Mushrooms have almost as many uses in skincare as there are varietals. At Origins, we harness the power of several types. Fermented Chaga helps calm the look of redness and irritation; Reishi is an adaptogen that supports skin’s moisture barrier, improves skin’s resilience to stress like environmental aggressors, and helps even skin tone; Cordyceps help energize skin for a revitalized look; Trametes helps fade the look of dark spots; and Tremella deeply hydrates, helping skin look plumper and more supple.

• Mushroom actives can help Origins formulas to visibly soothe skin, reducing the look of redness and irritation.

• They can support a stronger skin barrier, helping skin maintain hydration and a more resilient, healthy look.

• Using mushrooms regularly can help skin look more balanced, calm, and act more resilient.

• Many Origins Mega Mushroom products are ideal for sensitive, reactive, or easily irritated skin.
