Origins - our mission

The story of our origins

Powerful through nature. Effective through science.

Origins has stood for natural care with the effectiveness of science since 1990. We began by looking at beauty differently, seeing our world as a precious resource rather than something to be exploited.

So we embarked on a journey to unite the power of nature with the knowledge of science and bring a new vision of skincare to life.

Natural care - from the contents to the packaging

Origins stands for cosmetics that rely on the power of nature. All Origins products are subject to a strict purity requirement. They are formulated with the highest quality ingredients derived from plants, the earth and the sea, as well as non-harmful alternatives combined with the latest science. We draw strength from the knowledge that our outer beauty is based on inner well-being. Our holistic approach goes beyond ourselves, we want to give something back to nature. Because only by sharing the gift of renewal will we be able to continue our journey of discovery - Never Stop Discovering.

Formulated for wellbeing

Origins skincare formulas are "clean". We eliminate parabens, phthalates, propylene glycol, formaldehyde, sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS), mineral oil, petrolatum, paraffin, diethanolamine (DEA), polyethylene particles and animal ingredients (with the exception of animal-friendly honey and beeswax).

*At Origins, we understand "clean" to mean that we extensively research and evaluate our ingredients for purity, efficacy and safety. We will continue to pursue measures to improve environmental protection - through manufacturing processes that reduce our environmental footprint and by planting trees around the world.

Sensual and holistic

Our passion is the connection between inner balance and outer beauty. We give moments and experiences that ensure your well-being in every way - from skincare textures that feel wonderful to natural essential oil blends that enliven the senses.

Only the most necessary packaging

Today
All of our environmentally friendly cardboard packaging is FSC certified, made from cardboard sourced from responsibly managed forests. 55% of our packaging is recyclable, refillable, reusable, recycled or recyclable.

Tomorrow
We are also increasing our commitment to the planet with recyclable tube packaging. Our target by 2023 is that at least 80% of our packaging is recyclable, refillable, reusable, recycled or recyclable.
