Mushrooms Latest Weapon In Beauty Wars March 10, 2006 - nbc10.com

Are you looking for a lotion to even out your skin? What about a cream to clear up your complexion?
The latest ingredient being used for its antiaging effects may be something you have in your refrigerator right now.
It seems like women have a never-ending quest to find the perfect product to fix flaws in their skin.
"Something that won't make my skin break out as well and that isn't too heavy," one woman said.
"A lot of moisture and create a glow about your skin," another woman explained.
"Just to get the right balance for my skin where it's not red here, not oily, not problems," yet another woman said.
The mushroom is the latest ingredient that may help your skin. Proponents say mushrooms can firm, tone and repair. Mushrooms are showing up in some popular products. On the ingredients list they may show up as mushroom extract.
Origins has even developed a whole skin care line based on the fungus hoping to harvest its antioxidant properties.
"I've notice where my skin has cleared up and my facialist has mentioned that, too," one woman said.
"Theoretically, the vitamin Cs and the antioxidants are helpful for guarding against environmental toxin, environmental damage and stressors," said Dr. Jennifer Cather.
"I didn't realize my hands were red and this hand isn't anymore, so if it can do that to my hands, I'd love to see what it could do (on my face)," said Sara Weiss.
Doctors warn that there is very little evidence right now that the mushroom effect is anything but skin deep.
"You can have things that might make you look and feel better, but do they actually do anything long term, over time?" Cather asked.
But skin deep is good enough for some women.
"If it works, that's fine. I don't care about the ingredients in the makeup as long as it works," one woman said.
