Claims:
New research at several major universities has proven that world-famous White Tea is among the most potent antioxidants, anti-agers, anti-stress, anti-smoke, anti-pollution antidotes. Now its perfect-protective powers are energized and optimized while skin is deeply moisturized.
 
Review:
A Perfect World, Antioxidant Moisturizer with White Tea starts out strong and, at first glance, has all the elements of what other Lauder companies (of which Origins is one) know is necessary to create a great moisturizer to ease dryness and restore skin to a healthier state. What a shame Origins had to include such unnecessary and irritating ingredients as bergamot, lemon, orange, spearmint, and vetiver oils (among others). Among all of the Lauder-owned companies, there are plenty of other excellent moisturizers whose best qualities compare favorably to this one from Origins, and those thankfully omit the problematic ingredients that create anything but a perfect world for your complexion.
