Skin & Collagen: That Certain Something
They're already known for their medicinal properties, and now they may also help your skin. You can't go wrong with shiitake. But what makes them so special? Dermatologist Dr. Marta Rendon tells us more. "As we age, our collagen breaks down and that's why we develop wrinkles," she says. Skin care products using extract from shiitake may enhance cell turnover and regeneration. "The natural shiitake complex stimulates cell renewal and by doing that it just brings younger cells to the surface," says Dr. Rendon. "Every woman's skin has a unique pattern of aging and products that contain shiitake complex deliver just the right amount of cell renewal for your specific skin."
