Following the success of its mineral foundation, Origins has launched Multi-Grain Bronzer, a loose powder mineral bronzer said to promote healthy skin, whilst leaving a sun-kissed glow on the skin.

The bronzer contains a blend of oats, tapioca, soy, rice flour, wheat germ and barley which is said to bond to the skin, smoothing and nourishing it. In addition silica absorbs excess oil and controls shine, while an antioxidant complex including pomegranate, goji berry and vitamins C and E provide free radical protection. Finally, skin enhancing pigments provide a buildable bronze colour, while mica leaves a subtle shimmery glow.
