When it comes to skincare, what you put inside your body matters just as much as what you apply on the surface. At Roots San Francisco, we believe in inside-out radiance™—and that philosophy is at the heart of our Glow Boost Mushroom Elixir.
This unique formula combines functional mushrooms, prebiotics, and fermentation to support glowing skin, a resilient skin barrier, and overall immune health. Let’s explore how functional mushrooms work and why they’ve become a powerful ally for natural skin wellness.
What Are Functional Mushrooms?
Functional mushrooms are not your typical culinary mushrooms. They’ve been used for centuries in traditional wellness practices and are now backed by modern research for their ability to support:
-
Skin hydration and elasticity
-
Immune system balance
-
Inflammation response
-
Gut and microbiome health
Unlike quick fixes, functional mushrooms work holistically, helping your body function better over time—resulting in healthier skin that looks naturally radiant.
Why Skin Health Starts in the Gut
Your skin and gut are deeply connected. When your digestive system is balanced, your body is better able to absorb nutrients, regulate inflammation, and maintain a healthy immune response—all of which show up on your skin.
That’s why the Glow Boost Mushroom Elixir blends fermented mushrooms with prebiotics, supporting intestinal microflora while nourishing your skin from within.
Functional Mushrooms for Glowing Skin: Key Benefits
Supports Collagen Production
Certain functional mushrooms help promote collagen synthesis, improving skin firmness and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles over time.
Improves Skin Hydration
Mushroom-derived beta-glucans help retain moisture, keeping skin soft, supple, and plump.
Calms Inflammation & Redness
Chronic inflammation can lead to dullness, breakouts, and sensitivity. Functional mushrooms help soothe irritation and support skin healing.
Strengthens the Skin Barrier
A healthy skin barrier protects against environmental stressors like pollution and dryness—key for long-term skin health.
Brightens & Evens Skin Tone
Some mushrooms naturally support brighter-looking skin and help reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation.

Inside the Glow Boost Mushroom Elixir
The Glow Boost Mushroom Elixir from Roots San Francisco is carefully formulated with science-backed functional mushrooms, each chosen for its skin and wellness benefits.
Cordyceps Mushroom
Known for its anti-aging properties, Cordyceps supports skin vitality and elasticity while promoting cellular energy.
Reishi Mushroom
Often called the “mushroom of immortality,” Reishi is rich in antioxidants that help calm inflammation and support skin repair.
Shiitake Mushroom
Naturally high in kojic acid, Shiitake helps brighten the complexion and reduce the appearance of dark spots and uneven tone.
Maitake Mushroom
Packed with beta-glucans, Maitake supports hydration, elasticity, and overall skin resilience.
Turkey Tail Mushroom
Well-known for immune support, Turkey Tail helps maintain overall wellness—which plays a major role in healthy, clear skin.
Prebiotics
Prebiotics nourish beneficial gut bacteria, supporting digestion, immune balance, and a stronger skin barrier from the inside out.
Why Fermented Mushrooms Matter
Fermentation enhances nutrient absorption and bioavailability, meaning your body can actually use what you consume. Fermented functional mushrooms are gentler on digestion and more effective in supporting both skin and immune health.

The Glow Boost Mushroom Elixir isn’t just about appearance—it’s about total wellness. By supporting gut health, immune function, and inflammation balance, your skin can naturally reflect how well your body is functioning internally.
This is skincare beyond the surface—simple, intentional, and rooted in nature.

If you’re looking for a gentle yet powerful way to support glowing skin, hydration, and immune health, Glow Boost Mushroom Elixir is your daily ritual for inside-out radiance™.
Functional mushrooms don’t mask skin concerns—they help your body address them at the source.
