Science

Mechanism of Action

This extract modulates skin health through several precise actions. It functions as an antioxidant by actively scavenging free radicals and neutralizing potent superoxide anions, thereby mitigating oxidative stress at a cellular level. Its antimicrobial properties stem from compounds that inhibit the proliferation of various bacteria. Furthermore, mushroom extracts generally contribute anti-inflammatory, photoprotective, anti-tyrosinase, anti-elastase, and anti-collagenase activities. Specifically, phenolic compounds within Psalliota Campestris bolster skin's natural defenses by upregulating endogenous antioxidant enzymes, while polysaccharides like beta-glucans activate Langerhans cells and macrophages to modulate immune and inflammatory responses.
