I know, I know, this has been blogged about to death and I wasn’t going to bother reviewing it as there are so many about, but have been loving Origins GinZing Energy Boosting Moisturiser so much, that I thought it deserved a mention. Also, it is worth noting that I have been using it daily for over two months now, so feel like I have given it a fair trial.
This is a lightweight, oil-free moisturiser with a gel-cream texture which instantly absorbs into the skin without feeling heavy or sticky. It smells so fresh with a gorgeous orange scent and contains Coffee Bean and Panax Ginseng to boost the skins radiance, leaving a lovely glow. I use this in the mornings for this reason, as really do feel as though it wakes up my skin, making it feel rejuvenated, whilst also very hydrating.
Even though I have combination-oily skin, it is also quite dehydrated and find if I don’t use a moisturiser targeted at this, I start to get dry flaky patches. I have not had any issues with this at all, my skin gets the hydration it needs and because it is so lightweight, it suits my oily T-zone extremely well. It has not caused me to break out at all either, which is something that I know I can rely on from Origins too.
As I use treatments and oils at night, I don’t use this as part of my night time routine but it is perfect for the morning and look forward to using it each day. It also creates a lovely base for make-up too.
Available at Origins counters at Boots, Debenhams and House of Fraser at £23 for 50ml
