UK. Origins has extended its Dr Weil for Origins Mega-Mushroom skincare collection with two new items: a Face Cleanser and Face Lotion.
There will also be a limited-edition set available from October, comprising a 30ml Mega-Mushroom Face Serum and a 30ml Mega-Mushroom Face Cream.
The face cleanser is described as the first step towards skin wellness. Featuring a mushroom blend of Hypsizygus ulmarius, Cordyceps and Reishi, it is said to be ultra-gentle and therefore suitable for all skin types, even the most sensitive. It can remove even long-lasting make-up, sunscreen and other impurities, according to Origins.
The cleanser also helps to protect the skin’s lipid barrier, as it is free from emulsifiers. It is packaged in a 150ml tube.
Dr Andrew Weil for Origins Mega-Mushroom Face Cleanser was launched in August in the Americas, and will be available in Asia-Pacific, Europe, Middle East and Africa travel retail doors from October.
Also launching in October is the new Mega-Mushroom Face Lotion. This features Hypsizygus ulmarius and Chaga mushrooms, plus Narcissus Lily Bulb extract, reportedly known for its ability to optimise the skin’s energy and slow the appearance of the effects of age-accelerators.
It is said to be suitable for oily and combination skin types, and is available as a 50ml.
