As you know I am completely in love with Origins so I was really pleased when they released a product that got the attention it deserved (I hope the sales matched this!). The GinZing Energy-Booting Tinted Moisturiser was the base of the summer and although it's definitely Autumn here in the UK I'm still wearing this pretty much every time I have any base on at all.Now this is limited to who can wear it - anything from ivory to olive should be fine, anyone darker than that you are going to find it ashy even if the colour is basically fine. This comes out of the tube white and changes colour as it is applied to the skin. You can use your hands to apply it though I prefer a brush (you could of course use a sponge applicator or Beauty Blender too). I find that it tends to show a tide mark on the neck if you are not careful so a brush is good for blending.
Apart from the problem of limited skin tones it will suit I literally can't think of anything that's not fantastic about this product. The finish is lovely, really radiant even after it's settled into the skin. It so fantastic to finally find a tinted moisturiser with a proper SPF and that is genuinely moisturising. It sits well on the all the skincare I've tried it over but this literally feels like I have nothing on once it's been on for 5 or so minutes. Can't wait to take this on my next holiday (if I ever get to go on one again) as it will just adapt to my skintone as it changes. It also sits well under other make-up - creams and powders or just on its own.
This is the tinted moisturiser I for one have been waiting for - good SPF, not drying on my (dry) skin with a lovely finish and easy to wear. Perfect.
You can see me using it for the first time in this video
