Garnier Product Review

 

To start the school year, Garnier was nice enough to send some products our way! I have tried several of Garnier’s products over my years and have loved every single one of them, so I was excited to try these out! After testing them, I can genuinely say I have fallen in love with this brand even more. Keep reading to find out more about some of my new favorite Garnier products!

I am typically a makeup wipe type of girl. In fact, I use one to take off my makeup every day. After giving this a try, though, I was surprised at how easily it took off my face and eye makeup. It is a gentle formula with micellar water, so the product was not harsh on my skin. As someone with sensitive acne-prone skin, I am always hesitant to try new skincare products, but this one did not cause any bad reactions. While makeup wipes simply take off makeup, this multi-purpose product is actually a cleanser too which is even better and saves time!

Having thin hair, I am also pretty skeptical about leave-in conditioners. They can often weigh down my hair and make it look greasy, but this product left my hair feeling soft and smooth! Being a busy college student, I didn’t end up washing my hair for a few days after putting it in and my hair still felt super soft. The product also smells amazing! Ladies, if you want your hair feeling soft, looking shiny, AND smelling like you just showered 10 minutes ago, this is the product for you.

I love how this is a liquid pomade! Solid cream versions are not my favorite because they are too dense for my thin hair and harder to work with. This one, however, is much easier to apply since it is in liquid form which I was very happy about! It leaves your hair looking shiny and natural looking, while still holding the hairstyle together. After testing it out, it held up much better than other pomade’s I have used in the past! I think this is a great product that can not only be incorporated into hairstyles for special events, but also for everyday use because of its easy application.
