Product Description
I'm From Mushroom Collagen Cream contains vegan collagen fully obtained from the nature-derived Tremella Fuciformis, that is also known as plant hyaluronic acid. This cream makes the skin firm and resilient by filling up the sagging and drooping skin as well as the fine wrinkles without irritation. The gooey and stretchy cream texture not only hydrates and lifts up the skin, but also leaves a nourishing finish without stickiness.
The first mainstream use of mushrooms in skincare can be traced back to 2005 when integrative medicine practitioner Dr. Andrew Weil collaborated with Origins on a fungi-packed lotion. The best-selling formula is still in circulation, and nearly two decades later, mushrooms can be found in a growing number of cosmetics, face masks, face serums, and more.
Studies have shown that mushrooms can benefit the skin thanks to their metabolites that can help fight free radicals, hydrating beta-glucans, melanin-inhibiting compounds that can help combat dark spots, and high vitamin D content to keep damage at bay. Beta-glucans, triterpenes, polysaccharides, and polyphenols (all found in mushrooms) have often been used to help with rosacea, sensitivity, acne scarring, and compromised skin barriers.
I have been intrigued by I'm From products ever since I came across them in Korea back in 2018. Check out the popular I'm From Mugwort essence and mask, the highly raved I'm From Honey Mask, the interesting I'm From Fig Cleansing Balm, the warming I'm From Ginseng Mask and the discontinued I'm From Vitamin Tree Mask.
I received I'm From Mushroom Collagen Cream and Ampoule as part of a Wishtrend collaboration back in December.
Packaging, Scent and Texture
I'm From Mushroom Collagen Cream is a 50ml product housed in a glass jar. It has a minimalistic high quality vibe. It has a beautiful white creamy soft texture with no fragrance.
How To Use :
1) Apply a sufficient amount along the skin texture by patting lightly
2) Massage onto entire face by gently lifting up the skin
Performance and Ingredients
Some types of mushrooms, such as reishi, shiitake, and tremella, are classified as adaptogens. Adaptogens have antioxidant properties that can neutralize free radicals created by these stressors, as well as anti-inflammatory properties to help calm and repair the skin.
Said to firm the skin, improve resilience, reduce fine wrinkles and add moisture to skin, I'm From Mushroom Collagen Cream is vegan and clinically-tested to be gentle on skin. It contains 30% Tremella Fuciformis (Mushroom) Collagen derived from the nature that is rich in vegan Collagen to make skin plump, youthful and tight.

I'm From Mushroom Collagen Cream has a beautiful white creamy soft texture with a smooth whipped consistency that can be slightly tacky and heavy for my combination skin in humid weather like Singapore. It also left a shine which I am not a fan of, and looked more greasy when paired with its own I'm From Mushroom Collagen Ampoule.
This Collagen Cream felt more moisturising than hydrating as I woke up with rough areas on nose, even though I have used both I'm From Mushroom Ampoule and Cream the night before. It also stings slightly on dehydrated areas.
That said, pairing it with VENN Age-Response Compound K Hyaluronic Booster or Jumiso All Day Vitamin Brightening & Balancing Facial Serum or 100% Pure Vitamin C Serum left skin well-moisturised and healthy-looking.

Conclusion
To conclude, I'm From Mushroom Collagen Cream is a moisturising thick cream that may not be the perfect fit for my combination skin in humid weather. It is heavy and tacky most of the time but worked well when paired with the right lightweight serum for well-moisturised and healthy-looking skin.
