Belonging to the jelly fungus family, tremella mushrooms have gelatinous fruiting bodies the colour of snow β hence their other English name, βsnow fungus.β For a long time, Tremella mushrooms were only harvested in the wild, but they began being cultivated in China in 1894 during the Qing Dynasty. During this time, they were believed to be a mushroom of immortality and ageless beauty, and science today backs these beautifying claims. Tremella mushrooms are loaded with Vitamin D & antioxidants, and its molecules are smaller than hyaluronic acid, allowing for deep skin penetration and hydration!
