Thirsty Skin? Drink Up!



Lingering winter weather making your skin thirsty for some moisture?

Origins Drink Up Intensive  Overnight Moisture Mask is perfect for those nights when your skin feels tight, tired and dehydrated.  This thirsty feeling can be caused by so many things - low humidity environments,   fluctuating temperatures, too many flights jet setting around the world (lucky you!), you name it.   Your face just loses moisture throughout the day in general when exposed to the elements, which is why it is important to build back that moisture into your face before you go to bed.  This product is perfect for dry skin or normal to dry skin.  It’s a mix between a gel and a balm and smells super yummy & delicious.  Your skin needs moisture to stay youthful, so this is a product that can really work with the rest of your routine to prevent signs of premature aging.

As an added bonus, this will introduce you to the Origins brand philosophy, which is so divine.  The Origins Mission is "High Performance Skincare Powered by Nature and Proven by Science" and they use natural and certified organic ingredients and 100% essential oils to make their products.  The mask has avocado and apricot kernel oil  to replace the moisture in your face, and also has Japanese seaweed to repair skin's barrier and prevent future dehydration.  For more on Origin's ingredient listing, take a look here.

How to use?
This product will last you forever as you only need the size of a pea.  To use, massage the pea sized amount into your face before you go to bed.  Avoid your eye area, but don't forget your neck!  It may or may not absorb into your face, depends on how parched your skin is.  If it does not absorb, tissue/towel the residual off.  This will work overnight to quench your skins thirst and you will wake up with skin that feels soft, supple, plump and hydrated.  It really feels like a spa treat for your face! It also works well on skin that is flakey.  This is a staple by my bedside and I generally use this about 2 times a week in the winter and anytime my face is feeling dry in the summer.

Where to buy?
Origins counters are generally located in department stores like Hudson's Bay.  You can also order this product online.  Price is around ~$27.00, but you might be able to try out a sample before you invest or buy it as part of an Origins gift set.

If you try this product or have tried it in the past, let me know what you think!
