I’ve recently finished the Refreshing Scrub Cleanser from Origins and thought I’d share my thoughts on it.
I often used this cleanser in the mornings to exfoliate my skin. It has a bright citrus fragrance that I found really invigorating and uplifting for the day ahead. I really like the packaging, the squeezy tube did a good job at distributing the right amount of product and making sure I could use every last drop. The product has a gel like consistency and has a blend of coffee beans to wake up tired skin, and jojoba and carnauba wax unclogs pores and removes dirt and impurities to reveal a brighter, smoother appearance.
The scrub cleanser is gentle enough for daily use as it does not have any micro beads. It works best for oily, combination or normal skin types. I found I could use it every day without irritation, and it did not feel too harsh on my skin. After a few weeks my skin did look a little brighter and texture had improved.
The Origins GinZing Scrub Cleanser costs £23 for 150ml of product so it’s not the most affordable option available. I think the cleanser is slightly overpriced. It’s a gentle scrub cleanser but you can get the same results from a cleanser that costs half the price. Having said that, it’s currently on offer at places like LookFantastic (link) and for £16.50 I think it’s more reasonable and a good buy.
