Garnier Organics Lemongrass and Thyme Regime Reviews

While I didn't find the smells or consistencies of these products to be 100% spot on (some smelled a little medicine-like, and a couple of the products were a little runny), I did find them to be very effective as a regimen. They were easy on my skin and always left me feeling fresh. I noticed that my oily zones looked more balanced, and my pores looked tighter. The fresh, vegan ingredients are also a bonus, as you know that you're treating your skin to only the best. Overall, I enjoyed using these products and the results that they gave me!

I was so excited to try these products- as they’re all vegan/natural-based products and suitable for sensitive skin which is right up my alley!!! I like the packaging colour scheme- the green and white combo is nice. Simple but I really liked it. I also like that on the backs of the products, it’s got the list of ingredients and where they come from (the natural source), which was really cool. They all smell really fresh, the lemongrass and thyme go well together. I felt that these products worked well together as a range, although I do think that they could also be effective on their own. I have a dry skin type and these are aimed more at normal/combination/oily types- so perhaps these would work better on someone with these skin types. I thought all the products had a nice smooth texture and made my skin feel refreshed afterwards. My sensitive skin didn’t react at all to any of these products!!!! Not even a sting or anything! My skin also did not feel dry or tight after using any of these products- my skin felt good after using them all! And the more I used them, my skin still didn’t react (which happens sometimes). Very good for sensitive skin!!! Overall, I probably wouldn’t use these products as a range together- mostly because of my dry skin type (the moisturiser wasn’t hydrating enough for my skin). However I would still use them individually, particularly the cleanser (my fave of the three).

I was excited to have the cleanser, toner and moisturiser sent to me as I was looking forward to trying a range that was price friendly/easily accessible but also vegan and organic.

A little goes a long way which is fantastic. The packaging is nice enough and suits the range. The lemongrass is overwhelming if you are not into strong scents, and it is strongest in the cleanser which may be a deal breaker for some.

I love that the cleanser is a gel wash with a pump lid. It makes it great to use in the shower as there is no fussing. When I first used it I did three pumps however far too much product came out. I found that one is actually plenty which is great, and it foams nicely. I like how I can lock the lid to that I can take it with me while travelling.

Even when using the cleanser in the shower, once I applied the toner I had some makeup come off on the toner pad. I found a double cleanse is worth doing just in case (especially if not using in the shower).

The toner was my favourite product from the range. I love how it has salicylic acid in it, because I know that ingredient is effective on my acne prone skin. The scent is less heavy in the toner which is nice. I also like the ingredients that have paired the salicylic acid with, to ensure that it is not too harsh on the skin. I think for this reason it would suit a range of skin types. I definitely prefer the thyme scent of the toner - the scent is less heavy in the toner (as opposed to the cleanser) which is great.

The moisturiser seems soak in quickly/doesn't make my skin feel oily. However, I prefer using it at night rather than applying makeup over it in the morning.

The main reason for this is that unfortunately on the first day I used it, when I started applying foundation it began coming off in peels on my face. The next time I used it with a different foundation and did not experience the flaking 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 product off and start over if it was to peel again. 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.

The cleanser doesn't leave a squeaky clean feeling which is nice. I do find my skin could feel a bit tight at night after using all three products. I think the range would work best in the Summer months.

I think that while I'll keep using the cleanser and the toner, I'll pair it with a richer moisturiser and bring the moisturiser from the range back out in Spring.

My skin has not broken out from the range at all which I really appreciate. The moisturiser was a bit disappointing because of the peeling but it still works as a nice Summer night moisturiser and the cleanser and toner are great. I will keep using the cleanser, and would repurchase the toner.

After using all 3 products together over a period of time, I absolutely love these. I have noticed my skin has improved overall and it feels so much more refreshed. These products are great value for what they do

I loved the concept behind the organics range. All the ingredients are natural or naturally derived. I can have very sensitive skin but my skin never reacted to any of the products in the range. The products have a very herbally smell but it is very heavily scented. However, the range really didn’t work for me personally. I have relatively normal skin type and found every one of the products extremely drying!! I think it would be more suitable for really oily skin. I would never purchase the range again as i like using very glowy and moisturising skincare and this did not do that for me.

I really enjoyed using this trio of Moisturizer, Toner and Gel wash. The combo of scents was devine and this product did not cause any reactions to my skin. it also didn't dry it out or strip it. I would use this combo again as it's a good price and value

This range from Garnier promises great things - and mostly delivers.

Range Pros: - Organic ingredients, Vegan friendly and recycled packaged - very noice Garnier, very noice. - The price point is really reasonable, especially taking into account the above. - The packaging is en point - natural looking and very in keeping with the range. - All 3 products smell incredible, fresh, zingy and earthy.

Now I really enjoyed using the cleansing gel and the moisturiser, both were perfect for my combo skin. The moisturiser is light and non-greasy and the cleanser removes oil without stripping skin.

The toner unfortunately was a dud for me - I can't see it working well on anything but the oiliest of faces. It's far to astringent and drying.

I would definitely buy and recommend the cleanser and moisturiser though!

I've been using these 3 products as a regime. I really like the lemongrass cleanser and moisturiser, but I wouldn't recommend the toner.

The toner is far too harsh for my skin and left me with dry patches after just a few uses. It does smell really nice though!

The Garnier Organic Lemongrass Moisturiser and Cleanser are great. The lemongrass fragrance is perfectly done in both products - not too strong, but also strong enough that you can enjoy it for a while after use.

The cleanser struggled with longwear makeup, but otherwise is a good cleanser, removing dirt and grime and leaving skin feeling balanced and non-oily. The moisturiser leaves my skin feeling supple and soft after use, and the hydration lasts all day.

Highly recommend the lemongrass duo, but wouldn't recommend the toner.

As a whole, this regime didn't work too well for me. As much as I liked the toner, it didn't make up for the lack of moisture the moisturiser gave my skin. The toner and face wash seemed to work well together, both with pleasant low-key scents. As a basic skin wash/toner regime it works well, but for someone with skin that's prone to breakouts I need something a little more powerful.

I have been using all three products the past week and found they did work ok with each other but it just wasn’t really for me. The scent is quite strong of lemongrass for all three products but if that’s a smell you enjoy you may like this part! I was expecting my skin to glow and be clear after using all three but sadly it wasn’t the case. My skin did break out during the week while using these products but I won’t put it down to 100% being because of them! I did like the toner, but unfortunately not so much with the other products. The fact that these are vegan and use are organic products are great though!
