Skin felt dry after using.

I trialed the garnier Skin Active Vitamin C Jelly Daily Moisturising Cream for a few weeks. I would put it on after using the Garnier cleanser. It is a jelly sustance, that spreads easily on your skin. I didnt really like the way it felt on my skin, my skin felt dry and didnt look refreshed. The jar goes quite far as you dont need much, its quite a nice size. My skin felt and looked worse at the end of the trial.

Tips: You dont need much as it goes quite far.

Brightening!

This is a lovely day cream -I mean jelly! It is quite fun opening the pottle and realising it really is a jelly inside!

I found this refreshing and invigorating to use. It's scented, not too overpowering and not especially feminine, so a great unisex product!

I felt this had a positive impact on my skin, which looks more refined, clearer and brighter.

A cheaper alternative to my favourite moisturiser

I was eager to try this because I’m a huge fan of a similar but much more expensive product, and I wanted to see how this one added up. I was impressed - it felt fresh to apply and made my skin feel smooth and hydrated. It really feels like it absorbs into your skin.

Thank you...next

The packaging for this was basic and easy to use. It had a pleasant scent, unfortunately that is where the pleasantries end.

The moisturizer was a gel which I found left my skin feeling dry, patchy and craving moisture. This was not for me unfortunately

Not for me - but definitely for someone.

This review is a difficult one to write, because it sounds like I hated the product. In reality I did not, but it just was not the one for me.

I am very loyal to my creamy moisturisers, and a gel consistency was always going to be a hard sell for me. I have quite normal skin, a little dry on my cheeks, and that's where this product fell down for me. Across my nose and forehead it was nice, soothing even, but across my cheeks it left them feeling a bit dry, like i had just been swimming and put no skincare on.

I could see how this could for someone with normal/oily skin, especially in summer. It didnt add any oily feel, but the hydration just wasnt enough for me, or perhaps wasnt the right type. It says it helps reduce overproduction of sebum, but maybe it stopped mine too much!

Tips: The scent reminds me of something from childhood, but unsure what. It was light, and pleasant. I will keep it for summer days for under my sunscreen.

Refreshing

Feels really nice on, not too heavy or greasy😊. My skin felt hydrated and silky when wearing face cream. My foundation went on really well over the face cream, with the cream absorbing quickly.

Cost effective👏 and can be bought from a range of different retailers.

I would purchase this again because it feels really light on, easily absorbed and budget friendly.

Garnier Vitamin C Jelly Moisturiser

I was very excited to try this moisturiser as I have heard exciting things about vitamin c in skin care. This moisturiser comes in a jar and is a clear gel with a delicate fruity scent. It's a little difficult to get the right amount as it's very jelly like and if you tap it, you don't get quite enough and if you scoop it, too much. It's lovely and cool, which will be so nice and refreshing in the summertime and spreads very easily onto my skin. It soaks into my skin very quickly leaving it feeling soft and silky. I have been using this for 3 weeks and haven't seen any change to my skin tone unfortunately, but it does say after 4 weeks skin will appear brighter and less dull, so will continue to use with fingers crossed!

Good value for money

I have been using it for 3 weeks and my skin loved it. I didn’t have any dry spots even though it is light and absorbed the jelly fast. I liked to incorporate the Vitamin C in the jelly to brighten my skin, I do think this helped. Bonus points for being in a glass jar. It is good value for money, when you don’t want to spend a lot.

Tips: Still need to layer with an SPF underneath.

Effective but not very moisturising

The solid glass jar and easy-to-remove green lid work fine, but as always, I’d have preferred a pump bottle or a squeeze tube for hygiene and product preservation. The ‘jelly’ itself is really interesting. It’s clear and gel-like, but feels very liquid when you’re applying it, then goes a bit tacky on the skin for a few minutes before matting down. Quite a nice, refreshing sensation. And it smells light and refreshing too.

My skin’s very dry, and for the first few hours after applying the jelly it feels lovely – really comfortable and hydrated – but after that it’s like there’s nothing there. I've had to start applying a heavier moisturising cream over the top.

After using it for a month alongside the Vit C cleanser in the same range, I think my skin does look a bit fresher, but not dramatically so. The big thing for me is that my hyperpigmentation has faded a bit, which I’m delighted about. So even if it’s not enough as a moisturiser on its own, it’s definitely doing something good for my skin as a sort of ‘base coat’ moisturiser. And the long-term effects could be even better, given the excellent collagen-boosting, brightening ingredients list.

I was concerned about it being a bit harsh on my sometimes-sensitive skin, and every so often I’ve felt a very faint stinging after application, but that goes away quickly and it’s not happened much.

For such an affordable product (I reckon a jar would last me 4 months at the very least – you don’t need a lot to cover face, neck and decolletage), it’s surprisingly effective for evening out skin tone, but it'd be best for oily skins (which it does say on the packaging) or maybe summer-time use for drier skin types. I may give it another try in December... I'll let you know how it goes!

Tips: Definitely try this if you have oily and pigmented skin; I think you'd probably love it.

Budget friendly way to add Vitamin C to skincare

This face moisturising cream has left my skin brighter and well moisturised. I have oily skin so hate anything too heavy and this product delivers non-shinny results everyday. Easily absorbed with no tackyness.

Tips: Can be used as a night cream too if you have oily skin
