Garnier Organics Lemongrass Detox Gel Wash Reviews

I used this in my nightly skin routine. There was definitely some things I loved but also some things that could be improved. So I gave it an average rating.

Positives... It did give a good deep clean. It was nice and light yet went a long way. Washed off the skin easy. Didnt leave residue. Had a decent size pump on the bottle. Organic and vegan, something I am becoming more aware off when looking a products.

Things that needed work... I love a cleanser that really foams up, this didn't but still gave a good clean. There is just something so satisfying and feels like a deep clean. The smell! It is way to overpowering. It's a fresh smell but one that took over the whole shower. Even when I didnt use it I could smell it from the bottle. This is personal so you may love the smell. Little bit too runny, slides off the hands easy if you dont move fast. Interested to see how the pump works when it is running out? Cant comment yet but it is something I am aware of as sometimes can be hard to get last of the product out with a pump.

Overall yes my skin felt clean but I dont feel this product is quite there yet.

This gel cleanser has a very pungent herb smell with citrus undertones. If you are someone who doesn't like overpowering smells this bad boy is'not for you, however if you look past the scent its a product that definitely does what it says its going to do.

It has a light gel texture that massages into the skin well and does not foam up which I enjoyed. I did make sure to avoid the eye area as it contains Salicylic acid which you definitely do not want in the eyes. It did a great job at removing a full face of makeup however I would recommend doing a double cleanse to really make sure your getting everything off.

The box mentioned a applicator however I just used my fingertips and found this to be very effective. it spreads amazingly so you do not need to use a lot of the product and i found the smooth pump produced enough of the product with one push.

I usually tone and moisturize afterwards but out of curiosity I used it on its own a couple times and I found my skin felt very dehydrated and has a drag to the touch. There was definitely no oily residue and it felt very tight without the assistance of moisturizer. I do have a dryer skin type so i feel this product would be amazing for those who fall on the oilier spectrum.

As you don't need a lot of product this would last me a very long time in the shower and is definitely worth the price tag as its a competitive price as gel cleansers can be quite expensive.

The packaging was quite easy on the eyes and I love how earthy the greens look and the clear bottle so you can see exactly how much product is left so there is no guessing work there.

I would definitely recommend this product as it 100% does what it says it would, however i would only suggest those with oilier skin types use this.

This product comes with a handy pump top which makes it super easy to use. Two pumps is more than enough to thoroughly cleanse my face and neck. It lathers up very nicely, and did I mention it smells amazing? Very strong lemongrass scent so if you have sensitive skin or aren't a fan of strong fragrance then this product isn't for you but I personally loved it. This product promises not to dry your skin out, I found it drying on my skin. But I do have normal to dry skin that is prone to breakouts. I think if you have an oily skin type this product is better suited to you. Although it dried my skin out, as long as I applied a good moisturiser afterwards this wasn't an issue. I think the bottle size is very generous and would last you a decent amount of time so good value for money. I'd definitely repurchase during the summer months when my skin isn't so dry.

Thanks BR for the opportunity to trial this product! This is a gel wash for normal to combination skin. The lemongrass smells amazing, and the gel consistency foams slightly when used. A little goes a long way so the bottle will last a long time. The bottle is clear which is great because it’s so much easier to know when you are about to run out. It also has a pump top, which is always my preference for face washes. The design on the bottle is super cute too.

After using, my face feels really clean but not dried out. My skin has been feeling great since using this face wash along with the toner and moisturiser in this range. I haven’t had any pimples and my skin is hydrated and shine free. This is my new favourite face wash and I will definitely be repurchasing when it runs out. Highly recommend!

This was a lovely gel cleanser, and unlike many cleansers out there, I didn't find it to dry my skin out at all. My skin felt fresh and clean afterwards, and didn't feel tight at all, which I really don't like about many cleansers! The smell is fresh and delicate and is great for first thing in the morning. I found the consistency of the cleanser to be a little bit runny, so had to be careful it didn't slip off my fingers as I was pumping it out. Overall I found this cleanser to be easy on the skin, while still feeling like it gave me a good clean.

I love that it is a gel wash with a pump lid. So ideal for the shower, and stops mess/wastage. When I first used it I did three pumps however far too much product came out. I found that one is actually plenty which is great, it foams nicely (without being drying). I like how I can lock the pump lid to that I can take it with me while travelling. The packaging is cute and refreshing, and suits the theme of the range.

However, the lemongrass smell is very intense and almost over the top, and I didn't like it at first. I've grown to kind of like it (it is sort of invigorating, a good scent for waking up in the morning) but if you don't like strong smells you may not be able to get past the scent.

I found that even when using it in the shower, once I applied the toner I had some residual makeup come off on the toner pad. I don't usually use toner on a pad (I usually use a spray one if any), so I'm not sure if this is something that happens with all the cleansers that I have been using and is due to my technique, or if it is this cleanser only. I think a double cleanse is worth doing either way/just in case.

It doesn't leave a squeaky clean/tight feeling which is great, although I do feel like my skin feels dry if I use the full range together (cleanser, toner, moisturiser). I think that while I'll keep using the cleanser as we go into the cooler months, I'll pair it with a richer moisturiser.

After using this product my skin feels a lot more clean and refreshed. It feels really gentle on your face but leaves your skin feeling fantastic. I suffer from dry skin and this wash left my skin still feeling hydrated after use which is a major plus for me. Love this gel wash, it definitely is a must have

The face wash from this range is a gel wash that foams up really nicely. It leaves your skin feeling very clean and refreshed...but it feels like it leaves your skin very tight and dry. If you have normal to dry skin I wouldn’t recommend using it.

The Detox Gel Wash was my favourite product by far. The 150ml bottle is slim in size, the pump although a bit flimsy (mine had fallen off in transit) the actual bottle is made from 100% recycled plastic the Lemongrass scent of the wash is devine, it's really refreshing and does not sting your skin at all! I didn't feel as thought the gel wash stripped my skin and It felt soft afterwards. the gel consistency is nice and foams easily, doesn't feel sticky or drying. I would use this product again
