Garnier Organics Lemongrass Moisturiser Reviews

this 50ml balancing moisturizer improved my skin, allowing it to not feel dry. The actual lotion is really runny, i would of preferred if it was a bit thicker in the consistency and had SPF. it goes on easily and doesn't roll on the skill or flake. the scent is really refreshing and nice, it didn't sting or burn my skin either!

I have been using this the past week and have had up and down feelings about it. The smell isn’t too bad - definitely not as strong as the wash but it left quite a greasy feel to my skin. It did hydrate the skin though which was a plus but I found it didn’t last very long. All rounds it’s an ok moisturiser

I like the texture a lot, the smell is fine it takes some getting used to and i can totally see why someone may not like it. The ingredients are really good, the only thing i hate is that when you touch your face the moisturiser rolls into balls and falls of your face, hate it when moisturisers do that!!

This moisturiser came with the facial oil and eye cream in the latest BBBE. I love getting whole regimes to try, and was keen to try this one.

The moisturiser comes in a 50ml tube with a pop top - no mess, no waste, simple to open and use. The product is more of a thick lotion than a cream, and has an odd scent - not unpleasant or pleasant. I guess that could be the lemon grass. It absorbs quickly and easily into my skin and leaves it feeling soft. I like that it is vegan and doesn't irritate the sensitive areas of my skin.

It is nice, but on a par with other moisturisers of this type. At $17 it is worth a try with the other products, but there are other moisturisers pretty similar.

They had a great sale at new world on this I think it was 40% off so it’s definitely a bargain. That’s a huge positive. I grabbed this as I have pretty much run out of everything all at once and so in order to buy it all again or my more expensive favourites I have to stagger my purchases or buy cheaper alternatives.

This was a nice wee affordable buy to use to tie me over. I probably wouldn’t repurchase. But I will use it up.

My sensitive skin hasn’t reacted to this so another bonus yay.

It’s a slightly thick cream that applies well and does soften and smooth the skin leaving it briefly moisturised.. I would seek a longer lasting moisturiser in the future but given the price I can’t complain too much it does do what it says.. I do have other favourites though.

The scent was not for me it’s probably another reason I wouldn’t repurchase it’s not offensive but I do like a nice or at least neutral scented cream.

I will use it up but it’s a no repurchase from me. I feel it would be best suited to someone in their teens/20s.. my skin just needs a longer lasting moisturiser.

I go through moisturisers like there’s no tomorrow, yet I’ve had this one for ages now and it’s still half full, I don’t reach for it too often and also I can only use it on my days off when I don’t use foundation as it doesn’t work well with makeup, it rolls and it’s pretty gross. It goes well with powder foundations or setting powders only, which I sometimes do even just for home to blur out my pores and feel a little better about myself. My skin isn’t sensitive to scents, but my nose is and I really don’t like this lemongrass scent, reminds me of toilet cleaners/fresheners. It hydrates my face just enough for the day while also keeping the oils in control, gives like a matte but hydrated finish, which I quite like, my skin is nice and smooth when I use it. I haven’t noticed any long term changes, but I also don’t use it consistently. It doesn’t break me out, it’s just a standard moisturiser that I think would be more suitable for teenagers, or at least I think I would’ve liked it better back in the day as a teenager myself. :) I picked it up in the vault ages ago, but these are always on special in the supermarkets, so really affordable, I like how garnier went cruelty free and making changes to better, more natural ingredients, so will support them for sure, but I won’t be repurchasing this particular product.

The moisturiser was smaller than I thought it would be, but a little actually goes a long way which is great and it does seem so soak in quickly/doesn't make my skin feel oily. However, I prefer using it at night (although I do find my skin could feel a bit tight at night after using all three products in the evening) rather than applying makeup over it in the morning.

The main reason for this is that unfortunately on the first day I used it (in the morning), I applied primer as normal and then I started applying my liquid foundation and the moisturiser and the foundation both started coming off in flakes/peels on my face. The next time I used it with a different foundation and did not experience the piling however I have used a few different moisturisers with the first foundation and it has never flaked before. I am sticking to nights now as I don't really have the time to take all my products off and start over most mornings if it was to pile again. Unfortunately this issue would stop me from buying it again or recommending it to friends, as there are so many other moisturisers that work just as well but don't cause the piling - I'm not willing to take the time to try the moisturiser with different primer/foundation combinations to try and find out what the issue is.

I think the moisturiser would be best for Summer due to its cooling gel like consistency and it doesn't quite feel like enough moisture at night when you use it with the cleanser and toner too. The scent is noticeable but it feels like it 'suits' a light gel moisturiser like this and I don't really mind it.

I picked this one up in one of my vault shops. I’ve finally just getting through my sukin three step system now on this beauty. I noticed the launch of this line through BR and on supermarket shelves.

Packing gives off that herbal vibe with green labelling and picture of the plant itself. Consistency light weight smooth . Packs a zesty lemongrass punch , I’m into strongly scented products doesn’t bother me at all .

I dab this on my skin to test it out. Sits fine. It absorbs effortlessly into my skin. What I like is it sits well as a base for my foundation that I wear daily to work .

Overall I did enjoy using this . Only problem for me is it won’t last me very long because the packaging is small . Thankfully I have another cream on stand by .

I love the fact that the packaging is environmentally friendly and uses vegan and organic ingredients. However, I wasn't a big fan of the product itself. I really disliked the strong lemongrass scent and it seemed to linger. The consistency is quite watery but it didn't really soak into my skin well. It felt like it left a bit of a film and I noticed my skin was shiny early in the day. In saying this, my skin is naturally very oily. I didn't experience any breakouts from this product which is a good result since I am often quite sensitive.

Similar to the rest of the range, this moisturiser packs a punch scent wise! The lemongrass is very strong and I think that its quite off putting at times, especially considering it goes on your face.

Despite this, it did feel nice on my skin due to being a gel moisturiser. It didn't react with my sensitive skin which is nice considering it is not a specific sensitive moisturiser like I normally have to use.

The packaging is clean and crisp and it fits in really well with the range. It looks quite classy and sleek which I like.

Love that its vegan and organic.

Its a good product, but the scent really is too much for me.
