I have combination to oily skin that. Lately I feel like my pores are giant & my cheeks are cottage cheese texture & my under eyes are puffy & dark. Basically being over 30, not sleeping enough, & drinking copious amounts of wine isn’t great for my skin. I need something to wake up my face.
Enter Origins GinZing!
This mask boasts a refreshing peel fortified with coffee beans, panax ginseng, & gentle fruit acid complex that lifts away dull, dead skin plus dirt & debris leaving skin clear & radiant. PS it’s supposed to refine your pores making skin feel silky smooth to boot!
So after an impulse $28 sephora purchase I cleansed my face with my Ole wash & prepared for the peel.
I started with an ample squirt because when I tested it on my hand it definitely takes a healthy dose to get enough product to peel in the end.
Then I smoothed it evenly over my trouble areas, but avoiding sensitive zones.
The product goes on a little gloopy. It seems to start setting up quickly so getting a thick even layer is a little challenging. It does feel good on the skin & has a nice citrusy scent though.
After about 7 minutes I was feeling the telltale sign of tightening. I gave it about 15minutes to fully dry. Now the “smile to loosen” is a bit of a understatement.
Once I finished my face acrobatics it did peel pretty easily. One of my favorite things about this is the rose gold tone & it’s was pretty satisfying to see the swathes of color curl on my countertop.
I did take a little warm water to clean some small leftover bits away, but there really weren’t many. You know what else? My skin did feel smooth & refreshed & clear & radiant.
Also, I just noticed I did the classic nonsmiling before photo & smiling after photo. Overall I like this product & I definitely will work it into my routine.

I’m always a little bit afraid of peel off masks. I’m afraid they are too intense for my sensitive skin.

Yeah, what noticed with this mask was any part that thinned out too much required some tender love & care to successfully remove without irritation. In just a couple spots I had to tear the thicker piece away then dampen the thinned area. It washed right away though & I don’t feel like that lessened the results.
