Easy enough, right? Using this simple mask two or three times a week won’t take up much of your time, and its hero ingredient, reishi, will efficiently reduce inflammation at the cellular level. Here’s how.
Reishi
This functional health mushroom varietal is one of the most highly studied superfoods on earth, comprised of skin-boosting nutrients that produce real results.
Redness
Reishi contains mega-healing chemical compounds called triterpenes. These wonder molecules have stellar anti-inflammatory properties, reducing redness even when applied topically.
Acne
Reishi contains immune-boosting macronutrients called polysaccharides. These friendly sugars help prevent acne bacteria from getting cozy.
Premature skin aging
Reishi’s magical anti-aging combination of both triterpenes and polysaccharides effectively fight environmental free radicals like pollution, pesticides, and even toxic home cleaners.
Consider this transformative inflammation-banishing reishi mask your new secret weapon.

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I want to use it for several reasons but the main reason is redness. I love all those natural ingredients you use.
So lovely to hear! I’d love to get your feedback on how it improved your redness:)
Hi! Can we use regular local, raw honey if we don’t want to spend as much on the Manuka??
Hi love, yes you can but the antibacterial benefits are much better in Manuka so if you’re acne prone, I’d suggest investing in Manuka
