Garnier Green Labs Pinea-C Serum Cream SPF15

I really love this concept, of the serum, moisturiser and spf being infused together into one product. I dont normally like a SPF in my moisturiser as I dont like they way it sits and feels on my skin - but this cream was so nice! Its so silky, and light and has a really nice unisex smell. Its definitly a great day cream to use in the summer, I do perfer a thicker richer cream during the colder months. I would reccomend this cream/serum as I just love that the serum is infused into the moisturiser - such a time saver and I feel like my skin is getting that little bit extra. Love it

This is my first time using a serum and I have been pleasantly surprised with Garniers Green Labs Pinea-C Serum with SPF 15. The serum did a great job at keeping my face moisturised yet wasn’t too heavy and didn’t give my face an oily feel. The product left my face looking fresh and vibrant and the added SPF15 was fantastic as I spend a lot of time outdoors in my job. I’m not usually a fan of fragrances in my products however I didn’t find this was an issue with this product.

This has changed my skin so much! I have been going through a lot of different products to try clear up small breakouts, after a bout a week it has cleared up my skin and has given it a brightening effect. I will 100% be repurchasing this. It goes on so well under makeup aswell providing a flawless base. The pineapple scent is so refreshing and one of my favourite smells!

I love how easy the Garnier Green Labs Pinea-C Serum Cream SPF15 is! It really is genius to have a one step product that acts as a moisturiser, serum and sunscreen! I really enjoyed the fresh smell of this product and I am glad it wasn't too fruity. The consistency is nice and light, however I did find it a bit greasy, and it does leave a 'sunscreen shine' which I am not a huge fan of. In saying that, a little bit goes a long way so this product will last a while. I do think my face feels soft and looks brighter. Would I recommend to a friend? Yes, for the simple fact that it shortens my morning routine significantly and seems to be a great hybrid product.

When you hear 3-in-1 serum, cream and sunscreen in one product, it sounds overpromised, and it was indeed. For the record, I did not change my toner (rosewater) just to see the difference, and I did not notice any difference for the "bright glowing skin" I was promised. It was lightweight indeed but it was only SPF15 so if I were thinking of going for a longer walk in the sun, then I felt like I needed more SPF anyways so I had to add extra sunscreen which sorta defeats the purpose of this product. Overall, not recommendable.

This completely exceeded my expectations! Let me start by saying my skin has a mind of its own - some days it is really sensitive, others dry, others completely normal. And because of this, I really haven't had much luck with your more mainstream, supermarket-stocked brands. So I was intrigued to be sent this to see how it went.

And I love it!

The big wins for me: 1. Sunscreen! I try to wear it everyday, but lets face it - most mornings I am in a hurry and just forget. This chucks everything I need in one product. Of course, I wouldn't rely solely on this for a day at the beach - it is a low SPF by NZ standards. But for everyday, it is a total win.

2. Didn't irritate my skin or leave it greasy as some SPF products do. This made it suitable for non-makeup and makeup days.

3. Smells refreshing and summery without being over powering.

4. The packaging - A small pump bottle is perfect convenience-wise. Non-messy, fits easily on the shelf, and actually looks and feels quite premium (matte-ish texture, not overly branded).

The downsides: 1. Honestly, none really come to mind that are deal breakers - I would love a higher SPF - especially for this NZ sun. That would be my only wish-list product!

Overall, definitely recommend a try!

Gorgeous modern exterior packaging that really has a greeny eco feel to it. It comes with a pump which I personally love as it allows you to control the amount youre using. This product smells divine and feels luxurious on the skin. I found it slightly oily but that may be due to my skin type. I used it under my makeup for a few days, and found my makeup was slipping a bit at the end of the day. If this was going to be used barefaced with nothing ontop, it would be the perfect product.

This product was nice as a 3-in-1 treatment/moisturiser/sunscreen. It comes in a handy pump bottle that has a lockable pump so it’s good for travelling.

It is a white coloured medium-thickness cream that spreads and rubs in easily. It did not leave any white cast on my NC25 skin. The first thing I noticed was a pretty heavy “sunscreen” tropical scent, but after using the cleanser from the same range I realised it was just the pineapple fragrance that reminded me of sunscreen. The scent does linger for a while so it may not be suitable if you are sensitive to perfume.

This product left my normal/dry skin feeling hydrated and plump with a satin finish. It was not greasy or too watery. I did get a little shiny on the T-zone after a couple of hours.

I wish it was SPF30 but SPF15 is better than nothing. I cannot comment on its ability to fade dark spots as I haven’t used it for long enough but I feel that the combination of vitamin C and sunscreen has the potential to fade and prevent dark spots.

This multi-product has definitely made my morning routines a few steps faster. For someone who is usually running 5 minutes late to the gym in the morning, the Pinea-C serum cream has been very helpful! While using it, I haven’t had to think about which products to use together on my face. For those who like a simple, easy to use product, I would definitely recommend it.

The product is a thicker consistency most similar to that of a sunscreen. It has a pleasant, but not overwhelming scent with hints of pineapple. The cream, once applied, absorbs easily without the greasiness that some sunscreens tend to have. A pea sized drop goes a long way, so the bottle would last quite a while, making it very economical (plus taking the place for three products in one). My only qualm would be that I wish the spf were higher, otherwise a great product that certainly makes life easier!
