Garnier Intensive Lotion Review

I really wanted this to work for my very dry patchy skin because the price excites me so does the size! The reality is it's just not that great for me.

I used the Shea Butter formula for dry skin and found it very hard to rub it in to my skin. It would leave white streaks of cream that my skin wouldn't absorb which made clothing hard to put on after use.

Usually Garnier products are my go to skin care products but this time it had me wondering why! I am sure that people with normal skin might find it well worth using but for me I just wasn't sold on the product.

The smell however was divine and I loved the fact that the smell lasted for a long time on my skin. The bottle is quite big for the price which is good because I love a good bargain when it comes to size for price like this.

The easy squeeze bottle is easy to use and gets the last drops out but I prefer pump bottles to minimize wasting product by squirting out too much at one time. I really don't have much to rave about other than that.

i use my Aloe Vera Garnier Intensive lotion everyday mostly on my legs because after showering they most of the time end up being very dry. it just makes me feel refreshed and ready for the day not having to worry about having dry scaly legs.

I remember using this product years ago and the scent crossed my mind last time I came to buy a new moisturizer. I ended up purchasing it, thrilled that it's still sold and now I'm wondering why I ever stopped using it in the first place! I'm pretty lazy so just apply it after a shower before bed and it's great because ito absorbed quickly without leaving a horrible sticky feeling. It's easy to apply and in really noticing a difference it my skin.

This is one of my favourite drugstore moisturiser. I had the shea butter one of something for dry skin and after a few days of using this I quickly saw improvements in my skin. You only need a little bit and its very moisturising and smells really nice. It feels super moisturising as soon as its applied to your skin and you have to wait a little bit for it to soak in but other than that its great especially for the price.

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.

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 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!

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.

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.

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.
