Body Fungus With Origins

Now I don’t eat mushrooms and I found myself also staying away from products that use this fungus in their formulas. Inside or outside, I’m not touching them but know that this one does not look like mushrooms or in anyway smell like them. They could have told me this was anchovies inside and I probably would have believed them. But I decided to suck it up and try the new ORiGiNS Plantidote Mega-Mushroom Body Cream ($45/7oz @ origins.com) from the Dr. Andrew Weil for Origins line. Using a blend of a few different mushrooms and Shea and Cocoa butters, this cream helps to reseal skin after a shower and keep harmful irritants at bay. They could have called this anything and snuck mushrooms in it and I would have never of known. It smells to good to have that fungus in it, but not too strong, just pleasant.

Can you imagine if it did smell like mushrooms?! I'm sure they'd have a lot of returns on their hands. yuk!

LOL you make me laugh Cybele! I love mushrooms anyway so that gives me more of an excuse to try this stuff. I have to admit though that its pretty cool that it doesn't *smell* like mushrooms... That would be a turn-off for me as well. :)
