This is the best serum I have ever used. I love that this is not just a serum, it is a serum cream. It is so thick and creamy and feels so nice and soft on my skin. It makes my skin so soft and absorbs so nicely, it doesn’t leave a sticky residue like other normal serums do. I love that this also has a small spf in it. I have only been using it for a week but my skin does look brighter. It has a great unisex smell and this is a product I will continue to use and add to my beauty routine

Reviews
I was pleasantly surprised by this product - the smell and texture is divine! More of a cream texture than a serum texture. This feels like a great lightweight day cream that has benefits of Vitamin C as well as SPF - however, it only has SPF15 so you need to apply a stronger SPF over the serum cream. This brand has surprised me with this product and I think it is great value for money too!
It doesn’t make my skin feel greasy, but in turn it feels potent enough to nourish my skin. I didn’t notice an immediate improvement in my blemishes - but I have only been using this for the past two weeks. This is definitely a product to consider if you are wanting to expand your daily skincare routine to include a Vitamin C serum on a budget!
Tips: Remember your neck area + use additional (SPF50) sunscreen over this product.
First thing I noticed was the beautiful smell and consistency, which is perfect. No oily residue, but a glowing smooth finish. Very refreshing to use in the morning to start your day and excellent knowing it has SPF. I haven't used it long enough to see much of a change but so far I'm really loving it!
Tips: You don't need alot. Smooth upwards and outwards. Don't forget forehead and nose. Pat in. Great for under make up!
I was really excited to trial this as I’m usually not the best with keeping up with my skincare so loved the idea of a vitamin c serum SPF and cream in one as it eliminated a few extra steps for me! I love the added SPF as this is something I look for in skincare. I have a combination skin type with an oily t-zone and normal everywhere else. I am starting to notice some dullness as well. The first thing I noticed was the packaging. It is what I would say is the signature Garnier packaging. The bottle is sleek and has a pump to dispense the product. Scent of the product is mild for me and I don’t really notice anything. The cream itself is quite light and non greasy. I used this as part of my morning routine because of the added SPF. I’d need two full pumps and I would apply that all over my freshly cleaned face. The cream melts so easily onto my face with minimal effort. I decided to use this for a full week before I wrote the review as I wanted to see if there would be any changes in my skin. This product promises to brighten and improve dull and uneven skin. Over the course of the week I did notice changes, my skin feels softer and definitely looks brighter. I’m usually prone to a couple of breakouts and haven’t had any with this product at all. I am pleasantly surprised with this 3 in 1 product because of how good it actually is. It’s perfect for someone like me who is usually short on time in the mornings as well. Skin care sorted in no time. I would definitely strongly consider repurchasing when this runs out.
Tips: Wears really well under make up but wait a few seconds for it to dry and soak into your skin before applying foundation on top.
I surprisingly LOVE it, having SPF in the serum I expected it to be thick but it's nice and thin and lathers so nice on your skin and bonus cause i love the scent that all Garnier products have and this is no different. My skin doesn't get oily which is a mega bonus for me.
Tips: 3-4 pumps should do it to cover your entire face.
I love the idea behind products that combine key elements of my skincare regime together - a Vitamin C Serum and SPF. Although some products may seem ineffective at doing it all, I really feel that this product lives up to the hype.
It has an easy pump dispenser to help regulate the product amount. Two pumps seems just about right to cover my face and neck.
I love the scent of this product, I can’t quite put my finger on it but it seems so fresh! The serum itself is a silky cream consistency. It feels thicker than other serums I have tried before, more like a moisturiser consistency. It applies well, settling in to the skin quickly. It has almost an iridescent glow when you first apply it to the skin. It almost sparkles! I have found that I know need less moisturiser as this serum helps pack a punch with hydration.
Overall, I am happy with the scent, hydration level, and the way that it makes me skin seem glowy and more even in appearance.
This 2-in-1 serum cream is brilliant and I am impressed. I love the combination of serum and SPF15 moisturiser cream. It brightens my complexion, hydrates and feels lovely on my skin every day. My skin was dry and this was amazing. It makes my morning skincare routine so much easier as this is an all one product. The serum cream is light and fast absorbing with nice fresh scent. My skin feel smooth, hydrated and vibrant and I really enjoy using it. I would highly recommend to all busy mums.
I always use a vitamin c serum because I’ve noticed they’ve really worked to lighten my sun spots. I was super keen to try this one because of the spf in it as well. You should always wear sunscreen when using vitamin c so this is a bonus!
I love the formulation of this product. Not sticky like a lot of vitamin c products and it feels super luxurious and hydrating - and no strong sunblock smell!
I will definitely be reaching for this one again. Great for mostly indoor days just by itself or with a stronger sunscreen on top for me for other days.
I loved this so much and it made my skin feel super throughout the day. I loved how it made my skin feel great.
Tips: You don't need to use that much at a time
This is a great morning moisturiser - especially good under makeup! The SPF & vitamin C also cuts down on two extra steps that I would usually do as well. I have sensitive skin & I was so surprised this moisturiser was nice & gentle on my skin causing no flare ups. Very impressed - especially for the price!
The moisturiser is lighter than I am used to so for the evenings, I make sure to use an intensive night moisturiser. But this works really well as it sits well under makeup and isn't too heavy
I would have to continue using this product to see if it will make a difference to my dark patches and acne scars on my face as I believe this is a more gradual process with brightening these up.
