Chaga contains:
Antioxidants (like melanin and superoxide dismutase) that help defend against oxidative stress and daily pollution.
Polysaccharides (like beta-glucans) that support hydration and barrier function.
Soothing compounds that can help soothe irritated or inflamed skin.
We’ve harnessed these chaga mushroom skin benefits in both our skincare products—but also in our Chaga teas and tinctures. Internal use supports skin health just as much as topical use.
How can you use Reishi mushroom for skin health? Reishi (Ganoderma tsugae) is another wild mushroom we work with that’s great for skin. It’s been lauded for centuries as a beauty mushroom. It contains:
Triterpenes, known for anti-inflammatory effects that may help reduce redness
Beta-glucans, which support moisture and barrier function
Antioxidants, which help protect against early signs of aging
While we don’t make a Reishi cream, daily use of Reishi tincture or tea can support clear, balanced skin from within. After all, it is known as the Mushroom of Immortality.
Mushrooms can help support hair health from the inside out. Triterpenes from chaga have been shown to support healthy hair growth. Try adding a few squirts of chaga tincture to your favorite scalp scrub for a mushroom-infused hair tonic.
