Garnier Green Labs Hylu-Melon Serum Cream SPF15

First of all, I love the scent. I personally like an artificial melon scent, but I know others aren't a fan of artificial smelling fragrances. I also liked that it didn't feel like sunscreen and didn't appear to throw a white cast.

However, I wouldn't say it was super hydrating. Certainly not 24 hour moisturization. My skin doesn't look or feel any bouncier. I don't feel like it has the efficacy of a quality serum, but obviously it's at a much lower price point.

I did find that some days it would kind of pill and ball up on my skin after about an hour or so? Kind of like when you're using a chemical peel and when you rub your skin, the dead skin cells and product ball up. And as this product doesn't contain any enzyme or chemical peeling ingredients.. I don't think it was supposed to do that?

This one is a hard one, it does everything it said it would and made my skin feel amazing. The 24 hour moisture seems to really last and it cuts out several steps in my skincare routine by having a serum and SPF included. Unfortunately there are a couple of downsides (though not big ones), the first one is the SPF, it's only 15! I tend to use SPF 50 on my face, so regardless of the SPF in the product I need a little more to protect my pale skin - but this might be good for the upcoming winter. Another thing about the SPF is that I cannot use this product at night, which is when I prefer to use a serum and thick moisturiser, which this product contains. I'm hoping they'll bring out another product for this set soon to help with this. Finally is the consistency of the product, it does feel a little thick initially - however on the bright side it spreads easily and is very well absorbed into the skin - you really only need a litte, making the pump perfect to get exactly what you need.

Despite all the negatives, I'm definitely going to continue using this product as a day moisturiser, particularly over the winter. I just made my skin feel so beautiful and possibly even clearer than it was before. Is it too much to say that I think my skin is glowing a litte?

Twist lock on the pump, but it doesn't come with a cap. Serum is a white creamy texture that spreads easily and absorbs fast on clean skin. Smells pleasant.

I love that it has SPF, easy one step in the morning to apply. The smell doesn't linger for too long on the skin and I do feel moisturised after using it.

This was a very easy moisturizer as it covered most of things you want a moisturizer to do. When i first opened it, it smelt lovely like the cleanser but was not over powering. It had a lovely consistency about it, it was not too heavy and not too light. I only used it in the mornings because of the SPF aspect but it was lovely and light all day and didn't feel heavy or greasy. I'm not much of a makeup wearer so this was enough for me. It did not make me breakout at all which was really nice. I don't feel it plumpt my skin at all. But it made it keep its moisture but i didn't look oily. It was a lovely product and i would probably buy it again.

The serum cream comes in a green pump bottle and a little bit goes a very long way so you don’t need much at all and I feel like the bottle will last a very long time which will make it great value for money. We haven’t had much sun lately but I’d love to see how well the sunscreen factor plays out

I really liked the fact that it was just like putting a moisturiser on rather than an oil and the smell isn’t to strong.

I am a shocker at moisturising my face. I have naturally oily skin, so I am always hesitant to add more moisture!

This trial gave me the prompt I needed to start moisturising daily, and I have to say, I am impressed with this Serum Cream. Other moisturisers lead to an oil overload by 10am, but this one doesn't seem to.

Only a small amount is needed, and it goes on easily, but is on the thicker side. It absorbs quickly, and you can't feel it on your face.

I have noticed my skin looking brighter, and actually less oily.

Definitely recommend!

This moisturiser comes in a sturdy plastic 72ml bottle. It has a pump, which locks close, making for convenient application, and reducing the chance of spills. It has a nice watermelon scent which doesn't linger.

The texture feels medium - not overly thick or thin. Once applied to the face, it feels nice and lightweight, but still hydrating. I can apply enough to get SPF coverage, without it feeling heavy or sticky. There also is no white cast.

As we are coming into colder weather, and I'm not usually outside a lot, SPF 15 is fine for daily use for me. For days when I'm outside longer eg gardening, I would apply an SPF 50 over the top.

I have only been using this in the mornings, as that's what is advised on the box. In the evenings, I use a different moisturiser. I have combination skin which can dry out a bit in colder weather, and I've found this moisturiser perfect for me. Primer and foundation apply smoothly over the top.

I've seen this on the shelves at Pak n Save, and the price is reasonable, so I would repurchase. It is excellent!

I love the fact this claims to be 3 products in one. A 24 hr moisteriser, a serum and a sunblock too. After I applied it the first time, it didn't immediately feel like it was going to be hugely hydrating, however throughout the day my skin actually felt nice and lightly moisterised which was great. I love the fact that it has SPF 15 but it definitely has the texture of a light sunscreen, and smell as well - both which I didn't actually mind. I found I had to use a fair bit of product and used three pumps each time I applied, but I still feel it would go along way. It's cost affective and relatively cheap so that's a plus. I live the fact it's vegan, and the packaging is very cute and easy to use.

First things first, the packaging of this product is great. It is super lightweight and compact, but so convenient. I like the pump and would love if all products had one. The product was thicker than I expected, a rich white cream. The first time I tried this was at night and I was surprised at how quickly it sunk into my skin. It didn't leave a greasy residue. My skin was soft the next morning, and it did actually feel plump. I know its in the wording for the advertising of the property, but that is truly the right word for it. I tried it in the morning too, and thought how it wore under make up would be a great test. I was so surprised at how smooth my make up went on, and it didn't go cakey or split around my nose. I liked that it contained sunscreen, saves me a step. I was skeptical to whether I could skip serum too, but i defintely could, it was super moisturising!
