Tales from nature
The Fomes Officinalis or larch mushroom is an unseopible mushroom that grows in tubers arranged in several layers that are renewed every year and that are arranged vertically in order to allow the fall of the spores. His name is Fomes Officinalis, commonly known as larch agaric. "Agaricus Medicoarum" was in ancient times to indicate its therapeutic virtues against intestinal evils and snake bite.
It is still used in the preparation of herbal medicines and bitters. Once very refined, the therapeutic use of this mushroom did not have a wide application as rather rare to find and therefore very expensive, but made the fortune of numerous liqueurs that based their bitter taste precisely on the very energetic active ingredients of this mushroom.
Benefits
FOMES's extract (Mushroom) Officinalis will be extracted from the mushroom pulp Fomes Officinalis. It has an astringent action capable of closing the dilated pores and improving the skin texture. Firm the pores and tone the skin, helping to improve the overall texture and make the skin smoother.
