Garnier Skin Active Hyaluronic Aloe Replumping Serum

A serum that promises to hydrate skin up to 10 layers deep, yes please! This serum by Garnier also will make your skin feel softer, skin feels suppler, skin feels strengthened as well as bouncier, more glowy.

I really liked the dropper bottle design as it made it simple to get the correct quantity of serum. In saying this I did find that using one syringe of serum was a little too much for me so I reduced this amount to between half and three-quarters. Reducing the quantity of serum used meant that the product would absorb in quicker, perfect for mornings in a hurry.

My skin did feel softer and more supple after using this product. I would recommend Garnier Skin Active Hyaluronic Aloe Replumping Serum to anyone who is looking for a very hydrating serum.

I was a part of the trial team reviewing this product and the rest of the products in the range. I trialled the Garnier Skin Active Hyaluronic Aloe Replumping Serum 2x a day for the past month, along side the gel wash, and day/night moisturisers.

I had never really used hyaluronic products before, apart from the occasional face sheet mask, so I was really interested to see how it would benefit my skin.

It was easy to incorporate into my skin routine as I hadn’t been using a serum, and it was easy to use morning and night.

The serum has a great consistency, and like the gel wash, it also smelt faintly like aloe vera. The serum soaked into my skin really well, but I did find it felt a little bit sticky/tacky, although this did go away after 15/20minutes and applying make up over the top of it was fine. I saw a big improvement in my skin from using the serum, dry patches around my nose stopped flaking and stubborn spots on my chin and around my mouth cleared up.

The packaging is nice and I like that the bottle is made from recycled glass. It is also cruelty free and has no animal derived products, which made me feel good about using this product.

Overall, my skin felt smoother, less visible fine lines from the plumping and fresher from using this product. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to incorporate Hyaluronic acid into their skin routine.

Like the other products in the HA + Aloe range, the serum was very moisturising to my skin and made it feel and look refreshing. I generally have sensitive skin and using this product did not cause any irritation or discomfort. It has a subtle clean scent to that is not overpowering. Only a little of the product was needed and the hydration effect really does last for the entire day and a bit longer. It however, takes a a few minutes to be completely absorbed into the skin. Overall, would highly recommend to anyone looking for intense hydration.

It’s amazing how Garnier can put a whole lot of ingredients into a bottle and still have it come out clear! I enjoyed using this serum morning and night. It feels light enough in the day not to worry about too much heavy product on my skin as I’m prone to a bit of shine. I did find it pretty hard though to squeeze a whole pump out like the instructions say as it’s quite a thick texture and I had to squeeze a couple of times to get enough. My skin does like this serum and after I apply I can feel my skin is just bouncy and elastic and all the other products I apply afterwards just glide on. For me using a serum am & pm has really helped get rid of my dry patches on my cheeks.

Packaging is great, I like a dropper to apply products to my face and this one dispenses a good amount of product.

The serum feels nice and thick, it spreads well and absorbs quickly into the skin- didn't find any of my other regime products pillng or reacting which is good.

I think this is a great beginner serum, price point is fantastic and does what it says- didn't find it as hydrating as higher end serums I have used though.

It's a nice fair size bottle. Once you dispense the serum it goes quite far and goes onto your skin nicely.

This is quite a thick sticky serum but I’ve been told any good hyaluronic acid product should be a bit sticky.

The scent is fresh and isn’t too strong like some Garnier products and fades away quite quickly.

Immediately on application my skin did look hydrated and fine lines less visible but I didn’t notice any permanent improvement to my skin.

This is a really light serum it initially added moisture to my face. It has a light fragrance that I got used to over time. Just a dropper coverage was enough. Although I immediately found it moisturising by the end of the day I didn’t think my face looked as fresh as it has with other products. This could be due to the fact that it was winter and chilly and also that my mature skin needs more long lasting moisture.
