Origins GinZing Refreshing Eye Cream
Origins GinZing Refreshing Eye Cream Texture
Overall Rating: ★★★★★
Price: $$$ ($20-$30) – Available at Origins and Macy’s.
Scent: Undetectable.
I liked: that the eye cream was effective at lightening dark circles and decreasing puffiness around the eyes. Its thick texture helped to keep the area around my eyes moisturized.
I didn’t like: the initial invigorating sensation. It almost does too good a job at “waking” your eyes up.
Origins Ginzing Refreshing Eye Cream is a great non-gender specific moisturizer that effectively lightens dark circles and decreases puffiness around the eyes. It contains panax ginseng, caffeine from coffee, and “natural optic brighteners” to revive tired-looking eyes. Be careful not to apply too much of this eye cream at once. My eyes initially watered because I used a generous amount of the product around the eyes – they felt way too invigorated (perhaps too much of a good thing?). At .5 ounces, a jar of Origins Ginzing eye cream is easy to carry around and will come in handy on mornings after those fun but rough nights.

Just curious to see how well this stuff worked at eliminating dark circles over time. Was it effective or does the search continue?
@DB As with other eye creams I’ve tested, the effect this eye cream has on dark circles is temporary. However, you should see a noticeable difference in how your eyes generally look and feel with regular use.
I saw some women who use it say that it contained a light shimmer which I think may be how it brightens but it did put me off a bit. Did you notice this?
Hi Arthur,
It’s true. The product does have a light shimmer to it. You should be fine as long as you don’t overdo it.
Thanks for visiting!
