REVIEWS
'Reviews' are Big Business. Online review websites are now plagued with fake reviews, some good, some not so good. Of course, these reviews can only be removed for large monthly sum. Frustratingly, the same paid subscription can also be used by companies to remove real reviews that don't portray their products in the desired light. We currently rely on our own 'in house' review system. You will see that some are 'Verified' which means that they are based on genuine purchases. These are the ones to pay attention to. Some other reviews are not 'Verified'. They may be genuine, they may not be. They may be five stars, they may be one star, but if they are not 'Verified' then read with some caution.

DISCOVER THE POWER OF NATURE WITH TRUFFLE EXTRACT.
There remains a need for effective and scientifically supported topically applied cosmetic compositions that provide Anti-aging or Rejuvenating benefits to the skin and hair using Natural Ingredients as an active agent.
In spite of the various anti-aging cosmetic products on the market, many rely on synthetic ingredients that can raise concerns about safety and environmental impact. At a time when more people are turning to clean, natural beauty solutions, there’s a growing need for effective skincare powered by nature. Truffe Périgord aims to meet this challenge. It is our opinion that in the years to come we are going to see a major increase in the number of products making use of Truffles, especially the Périgord Truffle, Tuber Melanosporum. Recently, there has been a great deal of independent scientific research into the potentially massive cosmetic benefits of these rare treasures and it shows no sign of slowing down. Of course, it's believed that this decadent ingredient has been used in Cosmetic treatments for thousands of years. Perhaps now we are on the verge of rediscovering why these mysterious fungi were considered gifts from the Gods.
Packed with natural antioxidants and revitalizing compounds, Truffle Extract helps protect the skin from environmental stressors, like UV exposure, by reducing harmful reactive oxygen species (ROS). In water-based extracts, Truffles are found to support healthy skin energy levels by boosting ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) production and enhances cell vitality—helping your skin look fresher, brighter, and more youthful. Whilst at the same time, oil-based truffle derivations have been used locally and in other parts of Europe for generations with countless anecdotal evidence to support their cosmetic application. At Truffe, nearly every one of our formulations contains both forms.
Likewise, in Gastronomy the Truffle is equally revered. And when preparing the ultimate dish, all the ingredients used must be skilfully added with great care and restraint so that the Truffle, the hero of the dish, is allowed to shine. We like to adopt a similar methodology here at Truffe. Whilst we make use of fabulous organic ingredients as well as other beneficial vitamins and nutrients, at the end of the day it is the Truffle that is centre stage,
Pure. Powerful. Proven.
Elevate your skincare routine with the luxurious benefits of Black Truffle. Perhaps Nature’s secret to radiant, resilient skin is finally here.

BLACK TRUFFLE COSMETICS
mycorhizienne
A mycorrhiza is a symbiotic association between a fungus and a plant.
In exchange for a place to live, the truffle fungus searches out and gathers water and nutrients that it then shares with the tree. The fungus collects nutrients that the tree alone would be unable to find. Over 80% of all plants on Earth form relationships with mycorrhizal fungi and without them most of these would die. When it comes to digging deep for skin feeding nutrients, mushrooms come first , plants come second. And, as truffles are some of the most nutritious fungi available it would appear there is little competition out there. It is time that the Emperor of the mycological world, the Truffle, is properly given its moment in the skincare limelight.
Nutrition
Truffles are packed with nutritional goodies. They contain masses of amino acids which aid collagen production, stacks of fatty acids for deep skin hydration, excellent anti-inflammatory capabilities that aid at repairing the skin barrier; numerous vitamins and minerals including vitamin C for reducing hyper-pigmentation, B12 for preventing hyper pigmentation, magnesium and iron. There are also high concentrations of the powerful anti oxidant superoxide dismutase and Truffles also have anti bacterial properties. And this is only the ingredients whose benefits are well documented. The world of mushrooms is a mysterious one and it constantly surprises us. It is only a matter of time before we discover the next wonder compound contained within these Black Diamonds of the dirt.
Ancient Practice
It may actually come as a surprise to many that using truffles on our skin is not, in fact, a modern discovery at all. There are countless tales from the Périgord, a beautiful and unspoilt part of South Western France as well as in Italy, where truffle oils and extractions have been touted as anti-aging wonders for generations. Truffles are nutrient-dense riches from the soil. In fact, the truffle is the fruiting body of a network of hyphae and mycorrhizes which have evolved into nutrient super-gatherers. Truffles have the power to reverse damage and protect the skin and hair and with these miracle molecules and it is clear to see why, ever since Roman times, humans have been proclaiming the benefits of taking Truffles, inside and out.
Our PROCESS
When we first think of Truffles, we think of food. The best approach to cooking with Truffles is to use the freshest possible truffles, grown in the finest terroir without the use of any chemicals or fertilizers, harvested at the peak of their maturity and prepared as respectfully as possible to carry as many of the desirable compounds into the final dish. The Truffle demands a support act composed of simple ingredients of the highest quality so that the Truffle can take centre stage in all its glory and prowess. There must be plenty of Truffle; nothing may detract from the Truffle. And thus, working in a cosmetic context, we must take a similar approach, endeavouring to extract everything that we can from these mycological jewels and showcase them in all their glory.
