WITH the first glimpses of Spring sunshine comes the dilemma of how best to protect our skin from its harmful effects.
Most moisturisers and foundations come with a standard SPF of 15 which isn't enough for the fairest complexions.
Adding in a much higher factor can alter the formula of products, which many companies are reluctant to do.
Without wearing a regular sunscreen on our faces - which can feel too thick and greasy for most - the options are slim.
Origins has come to the rescue with a new range - A Perfect World - that is infused with antioxidant-rich White Tea and barrierboosting Edelweiss, both of which have adapted to flourish in harsh, high altitude environments.
The moisturiser has an SPF of 40, Origins' highest ever, offering peace of mind that the face is adequately protected, even on the sunniest days.
it is also oil-free but feels pleasantly rich on the skin and rubs in easily leaving the skin feeling hydrated and fresh.
A Perfect World SPF 40 Antioxidant Moisturiser with White Tea is available from April, priced £35.00, from John Lewis, Debenhams and House of Fraser.
