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?

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.

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.

Consistency is thick and creamy like sun lotion leaving a slight white cast until absorbed. Application is super easy just pump a small amount into your hand and rub into your face. Fragrance is strong and smells of melon my skin is sensitive and doesn’t like fragrance being used on it. Coverage a couple of pumps is enough I use three as I also used it down my neck. Longevity is hard to say as it would be based on lifestyle it seemed to keep my skin soft throughout the day unsure as to how long the sunscreen would last for. Usage it comes in a large 72ml pump bottle which would last a while. Price is under 20 dollars which is cheap for a serum. Packaging is a nice smooth green bottle it’s easy to read and know what the product is designed to do. Results I loved the feeling of coolness when first applied it’s so refreshing. I did notice my skin looked a little plumper afterwards. Would I recommend this product yes I would due to the price and feeling of the product when applied to my skin also the fact that it had spf in it although it’s too low being only at 15.

I really liked this product, I love that it is 3 in 1 - moisturizer, serum and sunscreen saving time and money! It smelt amazing and a little goes along way. It left my skin feeling so soft and smooth and it felt amazing too. It's a vegan formula and the bottle itself is made 100% from recycled materials. If I had to say anything bad about it, it would be that I wished the SPF in the sunscreen was higher as the sun is so harsh here in NZ.

I was excited to try this product after using the milky cleaners from the same range. (which I loved)

However I was disappointed. It said its 3 in 1 and works well as a day wear under makeup. This was not the case. My makeup wouldn't set well and it moved all day.

The bottle it comes in looks cheap. The pump itself is great though. Also wasn't a fan of the smell but that's personal.

I started using it at night instead cause I wear makeup everyday. It's not intended for night use but I wanted to trial the product. It was OK but not great. I will stick to my current products and unfortunately wouldn't purchase again.
