The natural skincare brand Origins is offering a product called the Dr. Andrew Weil for Origins Mega Mushroom Relief and Resilience Advanced Face Serum.
The serum is based in reishi mushroom, fermented chaga and conprinus mushrooms — all of which come together to protect the skin and strengthen its barrier. This effect ensures that it better retains moisture, and that it remains youthful in appearance. This product is specifically designed for individuals with sensitive skin and the problems it can bring about — including redness and dryness.
Though best suited for sensitive skin types, this product is also suitable for individuals with normal, oily, combination, or dry skin. It is free of parabens, sulfates and phthalates.
