Apply serum AM & PM on clean skin. If you experience brief tingling or minor sloughing, don't be concerned - this is normal:
- Origins 5% Retexturizing Complex gently resurfaces skin and gives cell turnover a jumpstart. As the product activates on skin, you may experience minor sloughing upon application; superficial dead skin cells are combining with the product and being lifted off to unveil smoother, brighter skin.
- To minimize sloughing, gently pat (don't rub) serum into skin.
- Wait until skin is dry and serum is fully absorbed before applying moisturizer; if sloughing does occur, simply sweep away with fingertips.
- If irritation occurs, limit frequency of use and if it persists, discontinue use and consult a physician.
- Avoid eye area.
- Use sunscreen and limit sun exposure while using and the week after.

- Q
Can you use this with niacinamide?
- Asked by LL
- Official Answer By Origins US ENGreat question! Origins GinZing Into The Glow Brightening Serum is the perfect partner serum to Origins Energizing Gel Cream with Caffeine and Niacinamide, as the two products work to improve dull-looking skin while the moisturizer helps improve the skin's natural barrier. Please check with your doctor when using a prescription Niacinamide product as they are the best to advise using products with prescribed medication.

- Q
Can this be used with other serums? My skin is more on the "mature" side, and I have been using another serum that I like.
- Asked by Leanne
- Official Answer By Origins US ENA great question! While we recommend using this serum alone for best results, you may alternate Origins GinZing Into the Glow Brightening Serum with your other favorite serum. Simply apply one serum in the morning and the other serum in the evening, instead of layering your serums, and always follow with your favorite moisturizer.Was this answer helpful to you

Glowy Skin
When I first started using this, I was skeptical about the brightening effects because I've tried ones in the past and don't notice a difference. To note, my skin is on the oily side so it tends to get really dull easily, so I am definitely trying to look for something that isn't heavy and can make ...

So I got a bottle of this in a subscription box almost 2 years ago and have since bought 2 more. This serum plumps my aging skin and brightens it so that all my discolouration evens out. My pores are smaller too. I love it
Not the right ginseng
This is Panax Ginseng. Its not the same as actual ginseng. There are 3 types, not panax.
I would buy again
Love this product. Great smell and love what it dies to my skin. It's is light weight, moisturizing, gives you a glow. Great it you want to go makeup free.
Love this stuff
I keep reordering this product because I love the lightness of it on my skin along with the tingling sensation of waking it up. I do use it all over my face including the sensitive parts of my eye lids and under eye area because it also has a nice tightening effect when it dries that makes your eyes feel "accounted for" if that makes sense. :)

I wanted to try something new to see if there is something better than what I already use. Origin was my go to brand for a lot of skin care items since early 2000s. I don't know what has happened, but a lot of the great products were either discontinued or changed in formula. Some of the newer products just don't deliver, like this one. I found it neither brightening nor retexturing/smoothing. In fact, I found it leaving my skin dehydrated and blotchy. I also found it difficult to apply as it has a sticky texture. I normally try to not leave 1-star/2-star reviews. I try to find a least one really good redeeming quality so I can give it three stars, but there is nothing in this product to find positive. I am not giving it one star because I am in a good mood, and I don't think it didn't outright damage my skin (it's recoverable with my previous product). I waited till I finished the product before leaving this review because it takes a few months before one starts to see results from a skin care product. I am so glad this is finished and I don't plan on repurchasing.
