What is snow mushroom extract?
Snow mushroom extract is a type of mushroom that typically grows from dead or fallen wood. It's also known as tuckahoe, winter mushroom, and snow fungus. The extract comes from the fruiting body of this fungus.
The snow mushroom grows in tropical and subtropical climates where it can be found under deciduous trees. The fruiting bodies are harvested when they're still young--when they're about two to three-inches wide and dried out before being ground into powder form or sold whole as food supplements for humans or pets!

Benefits of snow mushroom extract on skin:
Snow mushroom extract is a powerful anti-aging ingredient that can help you achieve younger, healthier, and more beautiful skin. It contains antioxidants that fight the effects of free radicals, which can cause premature aging.
Snow mushrooms have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries to treat various skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and acne. They are also known to reduce inflammation on the skin due to their high levels of polysaccharides (a type of carbohydrate).
