Deep Quench: How Reishi Calms, Soothes, and Locks in Skin Moisture
Introduction
Exfoliation is the first step to radiant skin, but what comes next is key: protection and deep hydration. The Reishi mushroom is celebrated for its soothing and moisturising properties. It is an essential component for any successful post-scrub routine.
The Power of Beta-Glucans
Reishi contains compounds called beta-glucans, which are powerful polysaccharides. These natural sugars function as potent humectants, meaning they attract and retain moisture. By penetrating the skin layers, they help calm dryness and strengthen the skin's natural barrier, leaving your skin plump and dewy.

Soothing a Stressed Complexion
The anti-inflammatory properties of Reishi are also key. Its unique compounds help take down the look of redness and irritation, creating a calmer, more comfortable complexion. This soothing action is why Reishi extract is added to our formula: to prepare your skin for its smoothest, softest state.
In Your Ritual
After using the Reishi Botanical Body Scrub to gently remove dead cells, the Reishi extract, along with nourishing Grape Seed Oil, immediately begins to condition the skin. This leaves the skin renewed, toned, and deeply conditioned over time.
