According to the world-renowned authority on integrative health, Dr. Andrew Weil, there is a strong link between the skin’s response to irritation and premature aging of the skin. Often the hidden culprit behind persistent skin sensitivity and redness, irritation can be compounded by poor diet, lack of sleep, stress, hormonal shifts and external elements. Afflicting both women and men, these aggravators can become an invisible yet harmful factor deep within the skin’s surface. To provide those who suffer from irritation with a fast-acting “Dr. Weil Recommended” solution, Origins introduces the Dr. Andrew Weil for Origins™ Mega-Mushroom Skin Relief Advanced Face Serum. Peachy Deegan loves it and attributes strangers thinking she is ten years younger than she is to the fact that she uses great products such as this one by Origins!
PRODUCT:
U.S. patented with three additional International and U.S. patents pending, this upgraded, highly-potent formula is specifically designed to instantly soothe irritated skin, thereby helping to prevent signs of premature aging. Ideal for Rosacea sufferers and those with skin sensitivity, skin receives visible relief from skin-damaging redness and irritation. Formulated with Dr. Andrew Weil’s proprietary blend of the “Signature Six” key ingredients Hypsizygus ulmarius, Cordyceps and Reishi Mushrooms, Ginger, Turmeric and Holy Basil, this new facial serum is enhanced with a scientifically-proven blend of powerful anti-irritant ingredients, including Chaga and Pleurotus Mushrooms, Sea Buckthorn and Spike Moss. Mangifera Leaf Extract helps address glycation, which can make skin more sensitive, thereby reducing skin irritation and protecting against signs of premature aging. With regular use, radiance and clarity are renewed, and future flare-ups are kept at bay as skin’s overall health is boosted.
Here is what the Beautiful People of Whom You Know had to say:
As a skin-care-a-holic, I've tried many, many products over the years. Cleansers, creams, masks, lotions, you name it! But I've never fallen in love so deeply so quickly. The new Mega-Mushroom Skin Relief Advanced Face Serum by Dr. Andrew Weil for Origins may well be the most effective facial product I've ever used! The serum is designed to help protect the skin against "silent skin agers" and uses specialized ingredients like sea buckthorn (which is a terrific antioxidant), and the chaga and pleurotis mushrooms (both of which have been used as traditional health tonics in certain cultures) in addition to Dr. Weil's original proprietary mega-mushroom blend (Hypsizygus ulmarius, Cordyceps and Reishi Mushrooms, Ginger, Turmeric and Holy Basil.). All of these ingredients are combined into one easy-to-use, lightweight serum which easily penetrates the skin for optimum effectiveness. The formula fights skin inflammation, which is at the heart of all kinds of skin conditions associated with aging: redness, sensitivity, puffiness, lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and so on. Immediately after using the serum, I was surprised at how soft and silky my skin felt. Within a few days, I noticed a marked change in the overall texture and radiance of my skin. After about a week, I was totally hooked! Living in NYC definitely takes its toll on the skin - in addition to the nonstop pace, there is a constant barrage of pollutants which can be harmful to the skin and accelerate aging. Thanks to Dr. Weil and Origins, I feel like I'm now putting up a fair fight!
I have always had a redness to my cheeks and chin. I was always asked why I blushed so much or had I been out in the sun. I have Rosacia and so my face was always red. I've tried a few other products to help, but they only reduced the redness slightly. Because no other products have really worked, I was a bit skeptical about this one. Let me tell you, I was wrong. After the first day, I could notice what took several days from other products. I could also tell a difference in the firmness of my skin as well. I also have very sensitive skin and I felt this product didn't irritate my skin as other products can. I will definitely recommend this product to others.
Skin irritation and premature aging are concerns that many (if not most) of us face on a regular basis. As we well know, poor diet, lack of sleep, stress and changing hormones are factors that regularly contribute to premature aging. Sometimes these factors are difficult to avoid amidst our hectic schedules, and ultimately, our skin pays the price. To combat these damaging factors, Dr. Andrew Weil for Origins has just introduced a powerful new weapon in Origins’ skincare arsenal: Mega-Mushroom Skin Relief Advanced Face Serum. This highly-anticipated product addresses skin sensitivity, redness and reactivity, and is also perfect for individuals exposed to too much sun, wind and dehydration. We were eager to give the serum a try for ourselves. Upon pumping a bit of the serum from the dark green bottle, the scent of fresh botantical ingredients is immediately released. The consistency of the serum is that of a light lotion. Smoothing the serum on, we immediately felt its cooling, soothing effect. In previous product tests, participants felt their skin was healthier, less sensitive and with less redness after just one month of using the serum. Mega-Mushroom Skin Relief Advanced Face Serum is also ideal for those suffering from rosacea, a reddening and irritation of the skin. The serum is applied in the morning and at night, and with consistent use, skin’s radiance is renewed and improved. We’ve been using the product for two weeks and have already noticed a softer, more even-toned complexion. We’re very pleased with Dr. Andrew Weil for Origins Mega-Mushroom Skin Relief Advanced Face Serum, and think you will be, too! We highly recommend giving this product a try.
This is the first serum I have used that evenly distributes on my face. I love how it soaks into the skin, without leaving a shiny film behind. My fine lines are definitely less noticeable. It is great to have a product that is going to defend your skin. It is extremely lightweight yet my face feels completely nourished. This is perfect for me especially in the hot and humid summer months. I really like the scent and it is not overwhelming. My complexion appears much clearer, brighter, and younger. The easy to use pump ensures just the right amount of serum. On an evening I used this under my moisturizer. I love this product.
