Garnier moisture match // Shine be gone




Hey Everyone! At the beginning of this year (Jan 2013) Garnier launched a new collection of 5 moisturisers suited to target whatever your skin type may be. I actually bought this within a month or so of them being released on introduction offer for £3.99 and I have used it a lot since so I thought it deserved a review!

I had a look at  the range and instantly knew I’d go for the Green  'shine be gone' as I have oily/combination skin type. It said it would help reduce the appearance of shine and give you a soft matt finish, as well as a cooling 'sorbet' texture feeling light and fresh on the skin. 

When applying this I found I only needed a small amount of the 'sorbet' texture as it went a long way. It absorbed straight into my skin and I could definitely tell any shine had been mattified. I feel this hydrated my skin perfectly without feeling sticky or wet and left it soft to touch. I also think this would work great as a make up base to prime the skin. 

I hope this review helped and I would  recommend this to any one with oily/combination skin if you have be disappointing with other 'mattifying' moisturisers, personally this one has worked wonders for me compared to all the others. I look forward to re-purchasing this at £5.99!!

Thanks for reading

Love, Ellen x
