L-ergothioneine Superior (mushroom) Antioxidant Serum
There are insufficient words to define how exceptional, adequately extracted, and sustainably sourced mushroom infusions are for our skin. Mushrooms can create an isotonic environment, which means that the properties of each mushroom are balanced both inside and outside of the mushroom.
     This formula harnesses the potent benefits of the Mataike Mushroom (Grifola Frondosa Fruiting Extract), Reishi Mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum), Chaga Mushroom (Inonotus obliquus), and Cordyceps (Cordyceps Sinensis). Together, these mushrooms contribute to overall cell health, anti-aging, calming, hydration, nourishment, and optimal functionality, providing comprehensive support for your skin.

but wait for it …

The absolute captain of this antioxidant team is L-Ergothioneine! L-Ergothioneine is a naturally occurring amino acid and an extremely potent antioxidant. It is unique among antioxidants because it has a specific transporter in the human body, the ergothioneine transporter (ETT), which allows it to be efficiently taken up and accumulated in tissues where it can exert its antioxidant effects.

L-ergothioneine is found in various foods, with exceptionally high levels in mushrooms.     This serum is great for ALL Skin Types!

Shelf Life and Storage Information for Our Products and Ingredients

Finished Products - generally don't need to be refrigerated as they are preserved, but you can refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. The shelf life for most products is 9-12 months. Vitamin C Serum(s) and VitaResurface products should continually be refrigerated to extend their shelf life.
Sample Sizes - do have a shorter shelf life (generally 3-6 months), and items in jars can dry up quicker than this if the lid is not tightened well enough (Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).
Please Keep Your Products Out of Humidity, Heat, Direct Light and in a Dark Cabinet When Possible 

Exfoliating Acid - products have a shelf life of 9-12 months. The only things we don't suggest refrigerating are the Mandelic Acid Serums or Salicylic Acid Serums, as they can crystallize in the refrigerator. If this happens, you can set the product into a hot water bath to see if the crystals will dissolve.

Additional Items That Require Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark

Hydrosols and Distillates - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it to a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator.
Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take the oil out, warm it up at room temperature, and it should liquefy. If not, set the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shake the bottle, which will hopefully turn into a liquid. Some oils, like coconut cream and jojoba oil, have a super long shelf life.    

Refrigeration of The Following Ingredients is Not Necessary, But it Won't hurt

Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool, dark place.   
Co2 Extracts - these should continually be refrigerated.
Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare" butters. You can remove
what you need and keep the rest in the fridge.
Clays - keep in a dry, dark place. Shelf life is at least 2 years.
Herbs All herbs <i>(whole or ground)</i> should be kept in a dark, cool, and dry location.
Herbal (liquid) Extracts are created using grain alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herb, root, trunk, leaf, and flower. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years.
They can be stored in the refrigerator or a dark, dry place.
Other Raw Ingredients - such as Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc., will all have different shelf lives.

🌿 A Note About Mushrooms

NOTE: Mushrooms and their plant matter are extracted through a process that contains only the plant material and then preserved with Leucidal SF (Mushrooms are full of water).

🌿 Handcrafted at Garden of Wisdom

Our Anemarrhena Extract is handcrafted in-house by gently extracting the dried root in a blend of 85% spring water and 15% alcohol. This traditional extraction method helps draw out the plant’s naturally occurring beneficial compounds without the use of glycerin or added preservatives.

A great surprise

I have been using my " mushroom magic" for a few weeks. The consistency, to me, is very different. I was pleasantly surprised at how easily it melts into my skin. This is the first product that has worked so well at reducing my redness!

Sending you a super duper thank you for taking the time to review our L-ergothioneine Serum!

My skin looks healthier!

I am very happy with how my skin has reacted to this product. I thought I had adult acne for the past couple of years so I've tried all kinds of products to "cure" my skin condition. I spent hours reading beauty blogs and articles on skin care and product recommendations and also wasted a lot of money, only to have my skin get worse because of all the garbage I was putting on it. I went to a dermatologist and they prescribed expensive and harsh treatments. I finally came across GOW online and sent them an email to see what they would recommend for my "challenging" skin. Jen was so helpful and responsive to my (many) questions! I feel like this product is helping with healing my skin after using harsh products for years, and I also feel like it gives my skin a bit of a glow. I use this in the morning with Apple Stem Cell Cream and my skin looks fresh and clear all day.

We're so happy you are liking this product! this product is under appreciated for how much it can help! Thank you!
