Origins "Perfect world" series are formulated quite alike. Abundant orange oil in this moisturizer. It has antioxidant properties when eaten but topical use is potentially irritating to skin due to its methanol content. Overall there is significant amount of fragrant components in this moisturizer.

Like the name indicates, the antioxidant content is impressive. White tea extract has potent antioxidant properties. Citrus aurantium bergamia (Bergamot) leaf oil has some antiseptic and antibiotic properties when topically applied to the skin and for this reason is often used to treat problem acne skin. Magnesium ascorbyl phosphate is precursor of ascorbic acid (vitamin C), an anti-oxidant that eliminates free-radical damage and helps the synthesis of collagen. Adenosine Phosphate is vitamin B4. It's a fundamental unit of nucleic acid (vital chemical constituents of living things and primarily made of two types of acids-DNA and RNA) and serves as a source of energy in plants, photosynthesis and also for chemical reactions in the skin. Helps to stimulate skin cells and increase elasticity and firmness.

This is a moisturizer for slightly oily skin.
