Tremella Extract, derived from the fungus plant Tremella, stands as a water-soluble natural cosmetic ingredient. Its primary biological active component is Tremella polysaccharides, featuring polysaccharide molecules abundant in polar groups such as hydroxyl and carboxyl groups. These groups have the capacity to create hydrogen bonds with water molecules, effectively retaining a substantial amount of moisture. As a result, Tremella Fuciformis Extract demonstrates excellent moisturizing effects and is recognized as a humectant, often referred to as “plant hyaluronic acid.” Beyond its hydrating properties, Tremella extract also hinders collagenase activity and stimulates the production of specific biochemical components, showcasing skin-activating and anti-wrinkle effects.
