Reishi mushrooms
Reishi mushrooms (lat. Ganoderma lucidum, Japanese 霊芝, "reishi") are famous medicinal mushrooms that have long been valued in East Asia for their healing properties.
1. Antioxidant action
Reishi mushrooms are rich in polysaccharides, triterpenoid compounds and beta-glucans, which protect the skin from free radicals and premature aging.

2. Anti-inflammatory
Reishi reduces inflammation and soothes the skin, making it suitable for sensitive, redness-prone or acne-prone skin.

3. Moisturizing and barrier restoration
Beta-glucans in Reishi help retain moisture and strengthen the skin barrier.
Result: moisturized, soft and elastic skin.
4. Lightening and fighting pigmentation
Reishi mushrooms are able to reduce the activity of tyrosinase, an enzyme involved in the formation of melanin.
