Tremella fuciformis is known as the "Beauty Shroom". Tremella is an ultra-hydrating jelly-like mushroom that has been used for its cooling and yin nourishing properties for milenia. Tremella is great used internally and externally to hydrate the skin and improve complexion. How did Tremella become so popular for beauty?...
During the Tang Dynasty of 719-756, Yang Guifei an imperial concubine and one of the “Four Great Beauties”, considered to be one of the most beautiful women in China, suggested she attributed her ever glowing and youthful complexion to none other than Tremella and it is said that she had “a face that would put flowers to shame”.
So for centuries Tremella has been held in high regard by Chinese women for its ability to "Promote youthfulness, health of the skin, anti-aging, brightening and improving elasticity".
Tremella’s abundant antioxidants help remove free radicals, known to cause inflammation and cell damage, from the body. They are also believed to enhance the body’s own antioxidant production, especially superoxide dismutase, the ultimate free radical scavenger!
