Good morning everyone, I was re-introduced to the brand Origins a few weeks ago and I picked up a copy of Origins’ Guide To Skincare when I passed by their counter the other day.

I would love to share what’s inside the booklet with you, including the prices of their products. I have been a long time fan of their Modern Friction™ for the body and several of their masks. Reading this guide has tickled my fancy in learning more about Origins and the wide range of products they have to offer.

Please note that I was not told to write about this, I am composing this post purely out of interest as I would love to explore their skincare range in the near future. And I hope this post will help some of you.
