Currently Loving: Origins GinZing Eye Cream

by Amber on October 14, 2009

Origins GinZingI have been so incredibly exhausted lately, and my under-eyes are showing signs that they’re as fatigued as I am!  I think the worst part about being tired is that even after you’re wide awake and feeling somewhat human again, your eyes may not be getting the hint to catch up with how alert you feel.  If I knew that my eyes would still look so horrible a few hours after waking up– I would have just stayed in bed!  I have several eye creams that de-puff, but not any that really restore the radiance I need to look alive, so I put Origins new GinZing eye cream to the test!

Immediately upon applying GinZing, I felt a slight cooling sensation that helped soothe and bring a little life back to my peepers which can sometimes look a little haggard.  I also noticed the light-diffusing properties of GinZing, a translucent “back-lit” glow instantly appeared due to the light-reflective mica.  Upon contact, my under-eyes not only felt more hydrated, but they appeared to be quenched as well.  Sometimes I’ll put an eye cream on and wonder where it went because they still look so parched!  GinZing contains one of the ultimate moisturizers, shea butter– along with ginseng, caffeine, and magnolia extract to deliver some pretty quick gratification.  For $29.50, I think this does a great job de-puffing, brightening, and hydrating.  I have to say, the optic-brightening properties in GinZing kicked some major butt too!  It’s not disco-glittery, but it does have an iridescence to it that I love.  This one is definitely a winner!

Does it work well with concealer over it?

Hi!

I did try it with concealer and had no problems! I would just wait a few minutes to make sure the cream is completely absorbed before applying your concealer. ;)
