Garnier Intensive Lotion Review

I purchased this product in the weekend as I thought my current moisturiser wasn't quite cutting it with my ultra dry/ cracked hands and fingers.

I'm definatly one that smells every bottle of the product that I want before buying and I go for the one with the best scent, and I'm such a sucker for Shea butter. It's such a yummy smell! When I went to apply this moisturiser I liked how the product was nice and thick so it didn't slide off my hand but not too thick that I couldn't even get it out of the bottle. It was just the rite thickens. Plus it seamed to soak into my hands quite quickly and didn't leave that oily feeling.

With in the first day I could already feel the difference, my hands weren't sore to move and they felt really hydrated. In saying that I probably applied it about 5-6 times during the because it smelt so good and I like the feel of silky smooth hands.

This is definatly a product I would go back to, the only thing I wish it had was a pump lid I find those are so much easier to get the rite amount of product out of. There is nothing worse than getting too much out of the bottle and struggling to get it back in

Some moisturisers out there are really oily so I've found this product is a happy medium for its price range. Naturally was attracted to this product because the bottle was pretty hehe but it was worth the investment and definitely a moisturiser worth investing in if you're looking for a moisturiser that's not too heavy with a quick soak in time and not too oily on your skin. It seems to last forever too!!! :)

This time of year my skin always goes super dry and I was on the hunt for a new lotion - my Dove just wasn't cutting it. I saw this on special at the supermarket so thought I'd give it a go. I purchased the one for dry skin with she butter. It goes on smoothly and sinks in fast. It is quite hydrating, but I don't think as much so as promised - I can't imagine myself not using ANY lotion right now (as they declare), and I have been using it for about 3.5 weeks.

I think this will be fine in summer when my skin isn't as dehydrated, but it's not the moisture surge I need at the moment.

The smell is always amazing with garnier products so its always a go to brand. But I could not love this moisturizer! I found it quite runny and hard to rub into your skin compared to the pots that soak in without heavily rubbing. The bottle is quite slim so when the bottle gets under half you need to give it a good shake to get the moisturizer to move. One of the frustrating things I did find with this was I was not able to leave it upside down to move the last of the bottle down as the lid is rounded and doesn't sit flat, also because its such a large bottle a cup doesn't support the weight. It is cheaper than the pots and good value for money but I would happily pay the extra bit more and get a product that I can get every bit out of without making a mess and having to spend a half my time getting ready moisturizing my legs.

i love the sleek green packaging of this moisturiser, it always catches my eye at the supermarket.

It does say that will leave skin softer even 7 days after application but I always moisturise more regurlarly, especially my legs and especially when shaving/exposing to sun, sea etc.

It is a lovely light weight fluid, and a small amount goes a long way, I love the mild scent, and the scent does not hang around for ever.

It is easily absorbed into my skin and dries quickly.

It leaves my skin feeling soft and supple and beautiful.

For a supermarket product and the cost of this it is an absolute winner,

This is a great product, I love the thick creamy texture! I've being using this for the last 2 weeks and love the moisture and softness it gives my legs (keeps them looking smooth and well hydrated - sorry I hate dry or cracked looking feet and legs). The bottle shape fits perfectly in the hand, great user friendly form. I recommend this to anyone you wants to change up or just try something new for a change...will not disappoint.

A nice bright green bottle does look nice with its wee flip top lid and it's easy to hold and easy to squeeze the lotion out. It's a good sized bottle with a reasonable price tag. This is a mid range white lotion that's not greasy or waxy but does look lightweight in the world of body moisturisers. Fragrance wise it's a citrusy butter scent quite pleasant doesn't linger, and for me I didn't get the intensive moisturising I was after, It's a really nice lotion to use as it just slips easily onto my skin and doesn't go tacky or leave a residue. But for my skin it's just not quite enough, and I tried the Shea butter specially for dry skin, I've also tried a couple of the others in this range. But for a quick moisturise it did take the dryness and flaky of my skin, and is good just to pop on my arms or legs when I need a little moisturising, but just wasn't strong enough for me to use all the time I need a heavier cream.

I have used a few different ones from this range but my favourite is the Aloe Vera one as the scent isn't too strong making it nice for an every day moisturiser.

The product itself isn't too thick and is easily absorbed into the skin without leaving a residue or film. I love to use this product after I have fake tanned to prolong my colour.

It states 7 days of moisture after application but I still like to apply it every 1 - 2 days as I have drier skin. The price tag on this product for the size is definitely a plus and I will keep repurchasing as it is a good supermarket moisturiser!

This is one of those times when an unassuming supermarket product gets it *exactly* right. This lotion is capable of playing in the big league.

The bottles are generous and easy to hold/dispense from, with a pale green colour to them that (to me) screams 'soft'.

The lotion is a decent thickness, and the two scents I've tried (shea butter and mango) have both been tastefully scented and not overpowering.

The lotion spreads easily and absorbs readily into skin, leaving no residual oiliness, greasiness, or sheen.

Skin is left soft, lightly perfumed, and feeling and looking healthy.

The easy to open and close bottle is very generous for the small pricetag, and the lotion lasts and lasts.

A must for anyone who wants a cheaper lotion that packs a powerful punch!

I suffer from quite dry skin, especially on my legs so I was looking for a nice thick moisturiser that would sink into my skin and keep it hydrated. I found this product to be very light and that instead of sinking into my skin it sat on the surface and took ages to absorb. It does have a really nice scent to it but not the type of moisturiser for me.
