Most Helpful Positive Review Wonderfully surprising First time trying this moisturizer, I've tried almost every one here. The shimmer was concerning at first but of course Origins knows what they're doing! It blends in to make almost like a warm highlight. Really loving the way I can rely on this product to bring me a nice bright and awake look. Gives a little bit of tint so I look sun kissed and alive. As a tired chronically ill person this product is really helpful when my skin is looking bad but I need to get away with some sort of "makeup," so this is perfect for no-makeup makeup looks. The only con to me is that because of the shimmer this is solely a daytime moisturizer. For folks looking for an am/pm moisturizer, you'd have to splurge on a second product. Which isn't really a con if you love Origins.
Most Helpful Critical Review Yes! it glows huge fan of Origins, tried most of moisturizers. This is not the best one however it still works somehow and it makes my face glow (as well as my fingers.) It feels much heavier than Mega-Mushroom Relief & Resilience Hydra Burst Gel Lotion and I didn't like at first then got used to it anyway. Probably return to Mega-Mushroom Relief & Resilience Hydra Burst Gel Lotion after using this.

I hate to give it even one star. After 20+ years of using Origins this is the only time I will return an item. Not only did it dry my face immediately, it also colored it orange and made me a blast of light. Very ugly.
Please don't retire this product! 5

Best moisturizer I have ever tried. Actually does add a glow and a little bronzing. I can skip my tinted moisturizer most days. This works better!

Glowing 5
Texy2 from Kohler, WI
Ever since the pandemic started, I have been looking for a makeup/base/powder that would not rub off on a cloth face mask. Well, I tried this, and it worked really well. For older skin this is perfect. It gives the moisture that I need and a youthful glow. Even a little more moisture would be good in this. Since turning 54, I have been looking for a natural glow without all the makeup lines sinking into my wrinkles. This is it! I am so glad to have purchased this. I will use it forever. I am never going back to a makeup base or powder. Now with this being said, I can see how someone younger may have a break out. The moisture in this really works best on older skin.
Not moisturizing 2
Sarah from Tacoma
This lotion looks and feels good for the first minute or two, then my skin feels dry and tight and the "glow" looks like I have bad foundation on. The glow sparkles stay on you and your hands like glitter - yuck! I do not like this "moisturizer" at all and plan to return.
Glow with youth 5
sadiemae from Tuscaloosa, AL
I sincerely enjoyed this product and I will be purchasing some more soon. The creamy texture felt great on my skin. I could see a definite youthful glow on my face.
Great product with a beautiful glow 5
Julie from NC
I think this should be a permanent addition to your product line. I love the glow it gives. It's very subtle but looks beautiful. I actually think you could expand the color range. I have really fair skin and i'd like to see this product in a slightly lighter, cooler version, too. I've been adding it to my CC creams and tinted sunscreen for a natural look.
amazing 5
trow from London
This product should be permanent! It works so well by giving dull and tired skin a boost and glow. Everyone compliments my skin with this, and a little goes a long way. All my friends are stocking up on this miracle in a tub.
I LoveLove Looooooooove this moisturizer!!!!!! 5
Lite from Tempe, AZ
This moisturizer is LIIIFE!!! I'm a glowy dewy type of girl all year round and this product just makes my inner and outer beauty POP even more!!! I feel like I have a very thin layer of perfecting foundation on when I use this moisturizer. It's very light and just really accentuates the beauty of your skin!!!!! I'm in looooove with the luminosity ✨🥰♥️🥰♥️🥰♥️🥰✨
Favorite Origins Product!!! 5
Olliebonzmom from Oregon
I stumbled across this product last summer and loved it! I work in a medical environment having to wear a mask for 9+ hours a day, so this cream is my go to! It soaks in well, moisturizes my face all day, and has a hint of color to make my face appear sun kissed. I will be buying many more containers to have on hand.
Hydrating, sun-kissed color- Best Origins Product 5
Laura111 from DENVER
This is such a great product. I really, really hope Origins brings it back. It is like a light mousse that gives a nice color without looking over-done. It works great on top of regular moisturizer or sunscreen or alone. Please bring this product back!!!!!!
Excellent sun kissed 5
Nk from San Francisco California
This product is excellent especially if you prefer not to wear makeup, though I imagine it would be great with it as well. Get the sun kissed look without the sun.
Tints your skin 1
SassyBee from Vermont
This product does not tell you it tints your skin but it definitely does. It should tell you to expect it is a shade. Im pale and it is def not a tint that works for me. Returned.
I would NOT buy this again 1
Lolo from Redondo Beach, CA
I use the regular ginzing gel product and wanted to try this one. After applying it, I felt a tightness on my face as well as coating. It did not soak in. I would not recommend this product.
Please make this permanent! 5
Hope from Lake Keowee, SC
Please make this a permanent product! It is hydrating, smells wonderful, and provides just enough tint/blurring to make me look presentable while I work from home. It really does make you "glow" more than the regular moisturizer.
Glittery 1
BrownSkinLady from Tx
Please don't buy this unless you want a brained look on your face but then you have to make sure you get all areas. Makes me look yellow.
just right 5
boltejack from CONNECTICUT
This is the perfect moisturizer. It feels wonderful on skin and gives just a hint of color to your skin. I only use foundation when going out and this gives me a daily pick-me-up. My concern is that you will discontinue it. Please don't.
FANTASTIC PRODUCT 5
Linda Sue from West Linn, Oregon
I put this product on both in the morning and before bedtime, it leaves a natural glow to your skin and moisturizes beautifully. I really hope this will become a permanent addition to the GinZing line. I am saddened to see it is no longer available.
Love, Love it. Bring it back 5
Silly G from Meridian, ID
I love this so much and hope it comes back soon. I'm almost out and will go back to my regular Ginzing moisturizer, it just won't be the same
BEST SUMMER TIME MOISTURIZER 5
parkucr from los angeles, ca
This is far the best summer glow moisturizer, I love it so much since I dont really wear foundation anymore cuzI'm always wearing a mask. This is such a perfect product during this season, it leaves my face glowing, radiant, and hydrated. This will go perfect with the new radiant serum, I HOPE THEY BRING THIS BACK!! Please, those two will be a perfect combo.

Bought this for a summer moisturizer to wear around house. It shows every line, wrinkle on my face.
I like it so far 4
gina from TX
For days I don't want to wear makeup.
In love! 5
Ona from California
In love with this product! To me the product feels great and smells refreshing. I do wish it had SPF, but I combine both this product and A Perfect World SPF 40 and it gets the job done.
The Missing Piece 5
Allison76 from Baltimore, MD
I'm always careful about keeping my face protected from the sun, but especially so in the summer. By the end of the summer, the color of the skin on my face looks so much different than the rest of by body that it's a little odd. This product has completely ended that. It is absolutely perfect for those with an olive skin tone. The glow level is gorgeous, and the tone allows me to skip foundation. It smells summery, it's lightweight on your skin and perfect for daily use. I'm a long-time Ginzing user. Perfect for summer. I'll also add, in this 2020 world of living on video chat, I feel like my skin looks more "awake" on screen. Absolutely love it!
