Frequently asked questions
What are the benefits of using a highlighter with maitake mushrooms?
Maitake mushrooms are rich in beta glucans, which help retain moisture, boost collagen production, and protect the skin from environmental stressors. A highlighter infused with maitake mushrooms can enhance your skin's radiance while providing hydration and skin-soothing benefits.
How should I apply this product?
Gently glide onto cheeks, lips, eyes, or body to illuminate. Blend with fingertips.
Can I use this highlighter on sensitive areas like under the eyes?
While the highlighter is generally safe for use all over the face, it’s best to avoid direct application under the eyes as the product isn’t specifically designed for this area. However, it can still be used on the high points of your face, avoiding these sensitive spots.
How often can I use the Mai-Light highlighter mushroom?
You can use it daily as part of your makeup routine or as needed for a warm, bronzy glow
Is the Mai-Light suitable for all skin types?
Yes, maitake mushrooms are generally considered suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, dry, oily, and combination skin. However, as with any skincare ingredient, it's always a good idea to do a patch test first, especially if you have sensitive skin or are prone to allergies. If you experience any irritation or adverse reactions, it's best to discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.
