This product smells wonderful . But unfortunately for me it just sat on top of my skin for ages and left if feeling oily and a weirdly unclean feeling like my skin had been sweating. (This was a weird experience from me)

Tips: Do not out this stuff on and then put your legs on rhino leatherly furniture it leaves smugging and oily marks
The Garnier body super food comes in a fairly large tub 380mls like the hair products it’s easily to recognise but not so convenient for travelling with.
It has quite a distinctive smell which does smells lovely in the tub but I did find it a little overpowering on my skin and I could still smell it on my hands after washing them several times which I’m not a fan of.
I always find that the packaging is jam packed with information but the key messages are: 48hrs hydration, 10 skin layers, for normal to dry skin, and fast absorption. It did absorb quickly, prehaps because I do have dry skin but I was fairly generous with my application.
It is hard to judge the 10 layers deep claim but from my experience of using this for a week it was not as nourishing as I would have liked in comparison to other moisturisers I have used. I still have dry patches on my legs and I needed to reapply regularly throughout the day for extra hydration so I would say it doesn’t last 48hours either.
If you want a basic, cheap summer moisturiser and have normal skin then this might tick all your boxes but this isn’t something I would recommend for dry skin lady.
No this would not be something I would repurchase.
i got picked to try this, where to begin, i personally wouldn't use this again. it does work... but i couldn't get past the smell, and i was not a fan of the "wetness" of it. i personally like a more creamy/thicker cream, this just felt very wet putting it on. now if you can get past that, it really does work. i did the one arm test for a few days, where one arm has it and the other doesn't, and i can tell you the one i did it on is so damn soft, the other one feels like sandpaper in comparison. i mean its not that bad, but the soft one is sooooooo soft, it just feels really nice. i also used it on my husbands sunburn, worked a treat!
Ok so first off the packaging comes in a large tub like body butter 390 ml volume the price point is around 8 to 14 dollars which is average for a body cream. The packaging is clear as to what it is advertising with bright colours which is apart of the garnier branding. The consistency is thick like a cream but light to apply and spreads well the smell is so strong I wasn’t into. It says it provides 48 hours of moisture however I have found other products that have given me better results it did help clear up a couple of dry patches I had on my legs. Would I recommend this product? There’s so many moisturisers out there to choose from so I wouldn’t buy it myself.
I can't tell if I love this item or not. The consistency and smell remind me of something - perhaps a face mask?? Its not necessarily a bad thing, but it throws me off a bit every time I use it lol. Its almost sticky, or 'goopy' in consistency but its not unpleasant at all, quite smooth and very easy to apply, soaks in easily to the skin. In terms of whether the moisturising effect lasts for 48 hours, I've not been able to tell entirely yet - though my skin certainly hasn't felt particularly dry. I'll continue to test it out and will update if anything else strikes me! I really like that it is in a pot rather than a pump, as I feel there will be less waste at the end - and the pot could be reused for storage which is a bonus!
Tips: Make sure you put the lid on properly - I had a bit of a near miss popping it back on the shelf after trying to replace the lid with moisturised hands!
I’ve been using Garnier products for quite a few years and was excited to try this Magnesium & Aloe Vera superfood moisturiser. Very generous sized tub, which is great for me as my skins really needs the moisture boost all over!
I liked the colouring of the outside of the tub, makes me think nature. Easy to use screw tub. The smell is lovely, not too overpowering but still subtle and feminine (not too feminine) but I really like the smell. I’ve been using it every day and mostly after my shower at night and I actually think it’s helped my sleeping due to the magnesium, so that’s gotta be good!
It’s helped with my patches of extra dry skin and I’ve even talked my partner into using it. The consistency is nice, it’s not thick like a body butter but not runny either a good in between.
I really like this and will continue to use and most likely will purchase more in the future.
Tips: Slather on at night after a shower!
It was a great moisturizer! Left skin feeling very hydrated. I don't think it lasted for 48 hours thought, probably just 24 hours or until i had another shower. loved smell. liked packaging.
Tips: Found it stayed a bit sticky on my hands after so worth washing hands using so would only use at home.
Having just returned from a holiday my skin was extremely dry with the change of water in Auckland. So it was a great time to trial the Garnier body superfood Aloe Vera and Magnesium. Not a big fan of the packaging but the product did not disappoint. It's easy to apply and left my hands feeling lovely and hydrated after applying. The product is lightweight and oily a bit like a coconut oil when applied so does take a couole minutes before it is fully dry, but left my legs soft and moistured all day and even into the next morning after application so does last the 48hours as advertised and my legs were really putting it to the test! I have very sensitive skin and had no problem with sensitivity from this product. The product has a soft fresh smell no offensive or strong scent. Not the cheapest product out there but I would definitely recommend it to anyone that suffers from really dry sensitive skin as it will keep your legs looking great all day with only one application. This is definitely a product I will purchase again as I love aloe vera in the Summer after a day at the beach.
Tips: Allow yourself an extra few minutes for the product to dry after application. With the added aloe vera it's great to have for the occasional sunburn over Summer :)
True to Garnier fashion this moisturising cream smells good enough to drink. It’s brilliantly thick and somehow still sinks into the skin quickly. I have very dry skin and have found this lasts all day without the need to re apply. I think 48hours is a stretch though, by bed time I noticed the dry patches on my legs are visible. I’ve found it to leave my skin feeling very smooth and hydrated, I even started using on my face on no makeup days because of the hydration it gives! Definitely would recommend.
Tips: A little goes a long way!
Packaging I give 10/10 easy to read can't confuse it for anything else I own.
Scent was amazing smells so fresh I could almost eat it 10/10
Initial touch test was just ok. Product was alot thinner in consistency than expected, I prefer a more richer texture. 7/10
Rubbing into skin felt soothing and cooling would be amazing for a summer day. could definatly feel the instant moisture to my skin. My skin stayed moisturized allday after application 7/10
Now this is the biggest flaw and why I will not use the product the moisturizer leaves a weird texture on my skin almost like sunblock you know the oily water resistant feel. I thought maybe i used to much so tried a smaller amount and the texture was still the same dissapointing as it was quite promising in the first instance. I hated the feeling so much i won't be using it again
