Pros: Leaves skin soft, smooth, with reduced signs of aging without a harsh chemical process Cons: can sting eyes when rinsing
Microdermabrasion is probably one of the hottest skin care treatments around these days, but its initial, temporary side effect of raw, red skin is is enough to scare off women altogether. As a result, skin care companies are jumping on the bandwagon to ...

Pros: Non irritating, easy to use, great results Cons: Expensive (but worth it)
With a recent order from Ebay I was also fortunate to receive a sample size Origins Modern Friction, and I was most excited to give it try. Thus far I've stayed away from microdermabrasion because of the potential for irritation and redness. But ...

Pros: Very smooth and radiant skin, lasts and lasts, very gentle, smells wonderful Cons: keep away from eyes,
Last year for my birthday Origins sent me a $10.00 coupon to spend at their store. I had no idea what I wanted to get, but I knew it would be something I would like and something expensive, because that’s expected from Origins. Once I got to Origins, ...
Pros: gentle yet effective, easy to use, lasts a while Cons: Expensive (but I got past that really quick)
Origins Natural Resources New York, NY 10022 www.origins.com 1-800-ORIGINS Background Addiction is such an ugly word, but it doesn’t sound so ugly when I talk about my addiction to Origins products. More often than not, I will buy ...
Pros: My skin's texture is improved. Cons: Expensive.
I dont buy a beauty product for the second time more often than I stick with one. So when I brought home my second jar of Origins Modern Friction I decided to review it. General information: My 4 ounce jar costs $35.00. Before you ...
Pros: Skin becomes smooth, soft and radiant. No lie! Cons: None.
About three years ago, I was unemployed, needed money, and had the first inkling of wrinkles. I spent an obscene amount of money that I didn't really have on four dermabrasion sessions because I was young and vain. In a word, I can sum up my ...
Pros: Smooths and refines skin; sloughs away dead skin and reveals new, moisturized skin. Cons: None, other than starting my addiction to the Origins line.
Let's break down the word dermabrasion, shall we? Derm = Skin; Abrasion = to wear away by friction. So, dermabrasion = to wear your skin away by friction. And people are surprised that this usually hurts? ...
Pros: Noticeable improvement in texture and radiance of skin within 3 weeks. Cons: Irritates the eyes, must be thoroughly washed off.
I have tried many exfoliating face creams and scrubs over the past 2 years. None of them have impressed me as much as Origins Modern Friction. In the past 2 years, I've found that my skin has turned from very dry to combination type skin. In an ...
Pros: effective, gentle, leaves skin softer & clearer
smells nice Cons: kind of expensive, but what price beauty?
stings eyes a little
When it comes to what I use on my face, I'm fussy. Well, strictly speaking, I'm not really fussy, just very, very sensitive. I can't use any of the alpha hydroxy products - too harsh. Products that exfoliate with salicylic acid are even worse. Any of the ...
Pros: Feels like it works when used, makes skin uber-soft, and really does work Cons: A little pricey for some
Because everything at Origins is arguably a little too expensive, I generally don't buy many items of this brand. I stick to drug store equivalents of cleanser, toner, etc., but if Origins comes out with a miracle potion/cream that can't be found ...
Pros: Smells great, gentle on the skin, and it works! Cons: Overpriced for the quality of the ingredients. Can sting eyes.
I received this product free from a Origins promotion, and I was very excited to get it! I have had light acne scars for the last 15 years, and am way too afraid of the dermatologist to try any dermabrasion stuff. Natural, non-animal tested products ...
Pros: -Amazing instant results -Softer, Toned, Even, Polished & Bright Cons: -Makes sensitive skin red for a bit
Modern Friction is one of those things where you don't know you need it until you try it. I am 20 years old with (somewhat) good skin, so before first trying it, I never thought twice (or even once) about dermabrasion. My skin care regimen was simply ...
Pros: Smells good, lessens the appearance of line/wrinkle depth, leaves the skin feeling soft and smooth. Cons: It stung my eyes when I thought I'd rinsed it all off but hadn't.
I'm soon to be 41 and have crow's feet/laugh lines around my eyes, which is the only place I have visible lines (knock on wood) and I've been searching for something to lessen their appearance. Yesterday, whilst perusing the cosmetic counters at the ...
Pros: makes skin soft and smooth
does what it actually says
non irritant to skin Cons: Very pricey
the smell is ok
i tcould dry skin, so moisterize
when i worked at Belk, I was looking for products not only to improve the look of my skin but the care of it as well. The advantage to working in a cosmetic store was that i recieved free make overs and could try products at no cost. Sadly most of the ...
Pros: Easy to use. Relatively inexpensive Cons: Could possible aggravate sensitive skin.
The first time I used the Origins Modern Friction, I couldn't stop touching my face after I got out of the shower. My skin was so soft and smooth! It is still one of my favorite products of all time. I like this better than Mary Kay's ...
