Drink Your Way to Better Skin With This Collagen Mushroom Coffee

Mushrooms for…skin?

Our editors have one common goal: Glass skin. But there are so many external factors that play a part in skin health: Pollution exposure, diet, stress, sleep, and caffeine intake. Only so many of those can actually be controlled though, so our caffeine-consuming team decided to try to cut back … with disastrous results.

Starting the day with a cup of coffee is arguably one of the best parts of life, and we didn’t know if we could go on without it. So we had to search for another way to both improve our skin and enjoy the coffee we need and love. That’s exactly what we found when we stumbled upon Everyday Dose.

The popular mushroom coffee blend has only 5 ingredients but boasts many benefits, skin health included. We were especially intrigued by the chaga and collagen, both proven powerhouses for complexion. It tastes like classic coffee but with additional benefits from the mushroom blend, and it only has about as much caffeine as a Diet Coke. We made the switch, and our skin has never looked better.

You Need Collagen in Your Cup

Collagen is the building block and unsung hero of your skin, muscles, and bones, but natural production starts to decline in your mid-20s. After that, you lose 1–1.5% of your body’s collagen per year.

Collagen stimulates your body’s natural hyaluronic acid production like a serum in a sip.

You might also notice a decrease in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and firmer, plumper skin.

Everyday Dose has 5g of collagen protein per scoop, which is the amount that’s been shown to increase skin elasticity and moisture, but you can always double up to maximize the benefits (and the caffeine).

The quality of collagen matters just as much as the proper dosage.

That’s why Everyday Dose uses 100 percent grass-fed, Brazilian bovine collagen protein that’s hydrolyzed to allow for better absorption.

See the Changes From Chaga

There are so many skin-boosting products and ingredients out there. But it can be hard to find what actually works when each week brings new beauty launches, each claiming to be the latest and greatest skincare solution.

There are the powerhouse skincare ingredients that we all know and love: Retinol, hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, niacinamide … you get it.

Then the powerful new advancements like exosomes, NAD, and hypochlorous acid. So never in a million years did we think that a mushroom would make the list of skin-loving ingredients. Yet, here we are.

Chaga mushrooms are rich in antioxidants that help to decrease oxidative stress and neutralize the free radicals causing visible aging like fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation spots.

They contain a powerful mix of polysaccharides that also help to support the skin’s natural healing and hydration through barrier support.

Basically, these mushrooms can make a hell of a difference, and all you have to do is swap your coffee for Everyday Dose and sip!

Maximize Your Makeup Routine With Dose

While you don’t need glass skin for your makeup to look good, it certainly doesn’t hurt to have a smooth base.

That $80 primer or so-called “savior” serum isn’t what you actually need to improve your skin.

Collagen and chaga have been studied and shown to promote the overall appearance of skin and skin hydration.

Our editors were just as impressed with what’s included in Everyday Dose as what isn’t in it: artificial sugars and fillers.

Plus, it makes a mean espresso (ish) martini, which we’ve lovingly coined the “Dosepresso Martini.”
