Review 1 for Starting Over™ Age-erasing moisturizer with Mimosa

So so.
Date: May 5, 2013
"I have a very dry skin, and I loved to use drink up intensive mask and high potency night-a-mins cream, but not this one. It's not bad, but I can't say it's great. It was pretty dry than the other two products, so in the morning I rather got fine lines, so I had to put a lot at night to avoid that. I would rather recommend night-a-mins cream if you have a very dry skin."

"I didn't notice all the "great things" while using this product. Fewer fine lines? Not that I could tell. Better skin condition? Not really. (I've always had trouble with acne and probably always will.) It wasn't until I stopped using Origins that I noticed a difference. I switched to another product that I had read about (good reviews!) in a magazine....and after a while, I noticed that my skin was dryer and duller and just not as "nice." So now I'm back to using Origins. Life with Origins is better than life without it. :)"

Review 3 for Starting Over™ Age-erasing moisturizer with Mimosa
"Tried as a sample and loved it. It is rich and smooth and the perfect winter face cream on my combination skin. I dont have many lines on my face except my eye, so I can't comment on the diminishment of lines, but my skin texture and tone are radiant with this moisturizer. Also, I have not tried it in the summer humidity. It might be too heavy for the T-zone."

Smelled bad
Date: April 1, 2013
"I REALLY wanted to love this product, but I just couldn't get over the bad smell. When you smell it in the tube it doesn't smell that bad, actually it smells kind of good, but as soon as I put it on my hands and onto my face the smell was awful! I had to wash it off. I gave it 3 tries and same thing ( I was just hoping it would be different I guess# It was also a sample, so maybe the samples were bad? I don't want to waste my money on buying it just to have the full size smell bad too. :# I think I will have to try something else"

Review 5 for Starting Over™ Age-erasing moisturizer with Mimosa
"If you are over 50 with combination skin, this is the night cream for you -- I just ordered my second jar. Absorbs quickly, light mild scent (and I'm sensitive), doesn't clog pores, and decreased those fine lines around the mouth. Don't hesitate to buy."

"I received a sample tube of this with my online order and was excited to try it. I put it on my face and it really smelled bad. I just looked over the reviews and see no other mention of this problem so maybe the tube I received was outdated? Nonetheless, I never want to try this product again since it smelled awful."

Review 7 for Starting Over™ Age-erasing moisturizer with Mimosa
"I was given a sample of this at the Origins store when I was getting some other items. I love the way it feels going on, love the smell, but a little after putting it on, it does not feel hydrating enough. AND THEN, my face gets greasy. The oil free version just wasn't moisturizing enough. A Perfect World during the day and Night A Mins at night seem to be my perfect combo! No dryness, oiliness, or fine lines at all. Thank you, Origins!"

Review 8 for Starting Over™ Age-erasing moisturizer with Mimosa
"This product does a great job with my 44 year old combination skin. It moisturized my dry skin but my T-zone doesn't end up oily. My crows feet are minimized and my skin always feels smooth and soft. I've finally found a favorite!"

hydratant?
Date: March 11, 2013
"I got this as a sample when I ordered something else from Origins (which I love) but found that this was one of those products that makes your skin so tight that it feels like it hasn't been hydrated or moisturized at all. So to those who actually like that feeling, you will love this. To those of you who want soft hydrated skin, get the Planscription!"

Review 10 for Starting Over™ Age-erasing moisturizer with Mimosa
"This product goes on so smoothly and has one of the most pleasing scents I've ever smelled. As with all Origins products that I've used, it's worked wonderfully on my skin. I just turned 50 and many of my friends tell me my skin looks like its still in the 30s. This will be a staple in my skincare routine for many years."

Dry no more
Date: February 28, 2013
"Received this as a sample last year and loved it but did not want to pay so much for a product. Well fast forward a year and I had to have this moisturizer again! I like it very much and it has really helped my dry skin especially in the winter."

Review 12 for Starting Over™ Age-erasing moisturizer with Mimosa
"Having sensitive yet acne prone skin, I'm VERY picky/selective about what moisturizer is applied on my face. Honestly, I can't remember how/why I started to use "Starting Over." A sample incl in a gift pack from Origins? Unsure. I purchased the reg size after several tries during nighttime. There is a subtle scent, but not overpowering like some moisturizers. I was surprised to see how soft, supple, & youthful looking my complexion appeared hours after 1 application. Minor wrinkles diminished. In addition, I didn't break out! I will continue to use this moisturizer during bedtime until my present moisturizer is gone. I liked it SO much, I purchased a reg size for my mother (in her late 70s). Do I recommend this product? Yes, highly!"

Review 13 for Starting Over™ Age-erasing moisturizer with Mimosa
"I have combo/oily skin at times, but it tends to get dry in winter. This lotion is oilier than most I have used from Origins, but in a good way. I do feel like it minimizes lines and wrinkles. The only thing I would suggest is to avoid the eyelid area as it tends to make my eyeshadow go on splotchy, even with a base layer."

A Great Product
Date: January 27, 2013
Tags: Moisturizing
"I am a 67 year old woman blessed with good skin. I am very active and have a slightly darker complexion from Polynesian bloodlines. I have never had to bother about face creams. I live in Montana where the air is so dry that moisturizers are now a must. I have tried many different products, some twice the price and this is the one I love the best. People are always complimenting me on my skin and asking what I use. I love the fact that Origins has natural ingredients. Another thing that convinced me was the lovely fresh smell. I don't think you can do better."

Great moisturizer
Date: January 11, 2013
"I am in my mid-40s and I have a hard time finding a moisturizer that really improves my skin without irritating it or making oil control a full time battle. But no more! Our winters in Maine are harsh on the skin - very cold, very dry and the dry heat indoors robs what little moisture I do have. But Starting Over makes my skin smooth, baby soft, moisturized and all without shine or breakouts. Although I have used Origins for over a year, I just started this cream 2 weeks ago but I am already a huge fan and will make this my winter go-to cream. A little goes a long way. I am really looking forward to trying the starting over eye cream!"

Review 17 for Starting Over™ Age-erasing moisturizer with Mimosa
"I use the oil free SO during the spring/summer months but I love the regular SO also and use it during the winter. I love the fact that it is not too rich or heavy for my skin type. It gives me the right amount of hydration during the colder months. It glides on, absorbs quickly and makes my skin smooth and soft."

Review 18 for Starting Over™ Age-erasing moisturizer with Mimosa
"I've tried a lot of Origins moisturizer, but this one is my favorite. I got a sample with another order, and I've been buying it ever since.
A very small amount provides excellent moisture, even in Austin's dry winter weather. It leaves my skin still feeling clean, but supple. And the light, slightly citrusy scent is lovely. This is a keeper."

My Search Is Over
Date: December 25, 2012
Tags: normal to dry skin, early signs of aging
"I am in my late 30s with normal/dry skin. Seeing some fine lines, and in winter I can get really dry and dehydrated, even flaky. In recent years, I definitely have had days where I looked in the mirror and thought, "Yikes, not as young as I used to be..." or "Ugh, what serum/mask/brightener/makeup/treatment do I need now, to address this latest problem?"
Well, a while back I got a sample of Starting Over, and just started using it morning and night, really with nothing else added to the regime. It felt great, it wasn't too heavy or too light, no reactions, plenty of moisture, etc. I had to have more when I ran out. Spring, summer, and fall passed, and every day my skin just behaved and looked good, smooth and balanced. I had no complaints when I looked in the mirror, virtually no "old, tired" days, no "dry, flaky" days. Starting Over just quietly did all this, just sort of stopped the aging in its tracks. I realized I had no reason to buy anything else and really have stopped trying other mositurizers and anti-aging products ever since. Bonus: it is free of most of the big "toxic offenders" that I avoid. Sold!"
