I am so glad to be part of review team and get to try this amazing range. I will start with the packaging; for the first time ever, I am truly impressed with the packaging, in a sense that it clearly states: 1) the certified ingredients, 2) where Lavandin is grown and harvested, 3) ethical sourcing, and 4) recyclable box, etc. Now coming to the product testing, I tried it in the night time because it's hot these days otherwise this would be a perfect facial oil for my dry skin in the winters. The best part is that Garnier Organics Lavandin Glow Facial Oil is non-greasy, non sticky and absorbed really well leaving the skin so soft and smooth. The next morning my face looked glowy and fresh which was quite unusual as I wake up to see dull and tired skin. This 30ml bottle will last long as I just needed a few drops to cover the face and neck area. I really liked the light fragrance which is very soothing. I will surely be using this in future specially in winters.

Tips: I figured out a tip while doing my make up as my foundation becomes cracky and I look funny with the patches. If we add a few drops of facial oil with foundation then it stays really well. Just try it to see if it works because it did a magic for me.
The box this comes in fits the bottle well with minimal extra packaging. The bottle itself is glass and has a dropper which is great as there is less wastage. The oil is quite runny and is not overly greasy/oily. It has quite a strong lavender scent when first applied, but this doesn't last very long. I have used this at night before bed, in the morning under the face cream and with a couple of drops in the cream. I have found it a little too much for my skin to use under the day cream, but a couple of drops in the cream works great for me. I only do this about every second to third day. I use this at night by itself also. It absorbs fairly easily into my skin and doesn't leave it feeling too oily as long as I don't use too much. My skin feels softer and looks tighter than before I started. Have only been using for just over a week. As an added bonus, any left over after applying to my face, I have rubbed into my hands and this seems to have reduced the dryness I get. Not sure on what the cost is, but as you don't need a lot, I think this would last quite a while. Very happy so far and would purchase again. Would recommend also.
Tips: A little goes a long way.
Unlike other face oils i have tried this one soaks in well and leaves your skin feeling fab, you don't need much to do your whole face and neck area and the bottle will last ages making the great price even better. Even if you wouldn't normally use a face oil i would suggest giving this product a try.
A nice 30ml clear glass bottle that is easy to hold with a fantastic dripper ... no mess at all! If I want to close my eyes, inhale and feel like I am at a day spa every day having a facial then this oil I will keep using. What a lovely scent of lavender. I was concerned that using the oil in the morning would affect the staying power of my makeup as it really is an oil however it didn't appear to affect the application of my makeup nor its staying power throughout the day. It states that it is a non-greasy formula however I would have to disagree ... it is an oil so how can it be non-greasy? I quite liked the greasy feel when applying as it felt like I was nourishing and re-hydrating my skin which is what I need first thing in the morning and before bed at night. It may have been oily but it didn't make my skin break out or cause any redness or sensitivity issues. I also massaged into my skin in circular motions as suggested and after a while it started to feel like a nice dry oil. I am going to continue using this product twice a day on my face, neck and decolletage as I have no complaints and want to see its full potential on my skin. Since you don't need to use much product I envisage the 30ml bottle lasting a good few months. Update: After using this product now for a couple of months I am officially in love! I have noticed a remarkable difference with my neck and decolletage... so smooth and wrinkle free. Cant stop using it now.
Tips: One full drip is all you need for your face, neck and decolletage. Massage in circular motions as advised on the box. Remember to put the lid back on!
This is quite a rich oil which would be suitable for dry or mature skin. This is lovely added to a moisturizer for that extra boost. I would use caution around the eye area since it contains lavender.
Tips: Use in a moisturizer for extra hydration.
I love lavender so enjoyed this product. I tried this product on its own in the morning and also mixed with the anti age cream. I loved the feel of it alone and it absorbed well but I didn’t notice the difference mixed in the cream. Price wise is reasonable and the fact it’s available in supermarkets is great. I also like the fact that it’s made with recycled materials.
Facial oils have come and gone from my skincare routine over the years; I find they're a 'nice to have' but not a 'need to have' for my skin. This one falls in the same category and hasn't convinced me that it's an essential.
What makes this Garnier offering different from others I've tried is the Lavandin. I found it a very nice and relaxing way to finish my evening regimen as the scent is great for winding down before bed. It's not overwhelming and settles quite quickly.
The consistency of this oil is very 'thin' and light which means it absorbed nicely without leaving a heavy or greasy feeling. I was able to apply sunscreen a few minutes after the oil which I was impressed with. I imagine it would be even faster if it was added to your mosituriser as they suggest for a quick glow boost.
I can say that it helped to lock in the moisture of the previous layers of skincare and I woke up with nourished feeling and looking skin. I did notice that when applied in the morning, my skin seemed shinier than usual by midday. Maybe a mattifying primer would help?
Overall, it's a nice oil. The packaging is nice and the dropper allows good control of quantity. I also love the organic aspect and the focus on natural and sustainably farmed ingredients.
This facial oil is amazingly non greasy and disappeared straight into my skin, so I guess I really needed nourishment on my combination skin. I like that it can be used on its own or you can mix a couple of drops into your moisturiser which will be handy in winter time. I liked the recyclable packaging and had no problems using the dropper. I love the natural ingredients and the inclusion of jojoba oil and argan oil, which is the same in composition as the sebum produced by your own skin, so by applying it it reduces your own skins sebum production, which is great for balancing oily skin types. Mature skin that lacks in nourishment will benefit from the essential fatty acids too.
Tips: A little goes a long way with this oil, so best to try at night to find the right amount that works for you so you don't run the risk of using too much under makeup.
What an exciting range from Garnier!
I have to start by saying I love the brand ethos with this range - it's all about using sustainable, organic ingredients and recycled/recyclable packaging. In today's climate, you almost think...what has taken the big beauty brands so long?
The star ingredient is of course lavandin - which from what I can tell is just another type of lavender. The range definitely smells lavender-y - it's just lovely. Fresh but herby-floral.
This serum is light and non-greasy and a really great introduction serum. I think it would be the perfect product for someone just entering the serum-world. It's likely not going to solve big problems like pigmentation issues or deep wrinkles, but it is very moisturising and softening. You can mix it with the day cream and use in one hit, but I prefer to layer, so I apply this and let it absorb before topping with the day cream.
I've been playing with these for maybe 10 days, and I'm really impressed. My skin hasn't suffered any ill-reaction and definitely has a bit of a glow!
From my nosy at Countdown, this retails for around 20$, which is a fair price, especially for a first step into anti ageing skin care.
The Garnier Organics Lavandin Glow Facial Oil comes in a beautiful bottle with a dropper for easy transfer.
I mix a few drops of it to the granier Organics Lavandin Anti-Age day cream and massage it on my skin.
I'm not very confident about oils seeing my skin can sometimes be very oils and prone to breakouts but this one's definitely changed my opinion on that. The oil itself is vegan which makes it so much more appealing to me.
I'll certainly be getting more of this to.stick.to the granier Organics Lavandin regime.
