Shiitake Mushroom - Shiitake mushrooms are prized for their ability to fade the appearance of photodamage and acne scarring. Their skin healing properties  improve barrier strength, encourage faster skin renewal, and boost skin elasticity . Shiitake mushrooms are packed with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds. The mushroom contains kojic acid, which is the second most common natural skin-brightening ingredient on the market. It works by prohibiting the production of melanin in the skin and can penetrate deep into the upper layer of the skin.  Shiitake mushrooms are anti-inflammatory, which makes them perfect for calming the skin. They are rich in B complex vitamins, specifically B3 (also known as niacinamide). This vitamin holds anti-inflammatory properties that can soothe the skin from any irritants.
