PROVEN BY SCIENCE
A team of Origins scientists used an Ozone Chamber to recreate an environment with levels of ozone comparable to the three most polluted cities in the world, Los Angeles, Mexico City and Beijing. After only three hours of ozone exposure, scientists measured the neutralizing effect of the potent antioxidant blend in A Perfect World™ SPF 35 UV Face protector with White Tea, A Perfect World™ Age-defense treatment lotion with White Tea and A Perfect World™ SPF 25 Age-defense moisturizer with White Tea and found that it helped reduce the damaging effects of ozone by 76%. This bubble of protection helps skin retain a healthy, youthful appearance longer, decreasing the formation of the visible signs of aging.


A Perfect World™ Collection


For centuries, the extremely rare Silver Tip White Tea was prized by emperors as the key ingredient in China’s famed elixir of immortality. Now, in the face of a global climate crisis characterized by ever-increasing levels of pollution, smog and hazardous ground level ozone that is putting our skin’s health at risk, Origins is striving to prove that the legend has more than a leaf of truth behind it.

Since the launch of the groundbreaking A Perfect World™ Collection in 1998, new and significant research has been conducted regarding the global climate crisis. In fact, according to The Royal Society, the national academy of science of the UK and the Commonwealth, "Ozone levels had been growing by 6% a decade since the 1980's and are now at a level that impacts our health and the environment…the figure will increase by at least 50% by 2020 as a result of growing emissions and climate change." 

According to scientists at University Hospitals of Cleveland and Case Western Reserve University, antioxidants in White Tea are effective in boosting the skin’s defense against the damaging effects pollution and other environmental aggressors. In fact, of all teas, Silver Tip White Tea contains one of the highest amounts of Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG), the powerful antioxidant that protects skin from age-accelerating free radicals. With this potent free radical fighting ingredient as the cornerstone of the A Perfect World™ collection, Origins offers a first line of protection against visible signs of aging.
