Magic Mushrooms: Fungi-Infused Beauty Finds

Whether you prefer your fungi in a salad or opt for the more psychedelic variety, mushrooms are having a moment thanks to their adaptogenic powers and additional wellness benefits.

One of my go-to clean skincare products for the past few years is this Origins Mega Mushroom Lotion (which is really more like a toner or tonic because of it’s liquid consistency), the OG of now-trendy mushroom skincare—it’s been around for nearly two decades.

After cleansing, I splash a few drops in my hands and then pat it on my face to help calm redness and soothe the skin before applying serums and creams. It has a fresh, subtle scent that I love, and it feels like an extra dose of TLC for your face. (And for the record, my husband loves it, too.)

Check out a few other mushroom must-haves for your beauty cabinet.

*Side Note: For reference, my skin type is dry and sensitive. I think people should always indicate their skin type when giving skincare reviews. Not all beauty products are created equal, and neither are all skin types. I've had horrible reactions to VERY popular and VERY expensive products because they weren't right for my skin. Obviously, you should do your own research before trying a new product (duh), but I think it's helpful to share skin types the same way we offer sizing references when sharing clothing.
