As with most months, a copy of Glamour was dropped onto my doormat today and with it was a sample of Garnier's Moisture Match Goodbye Dry moisturiser! I'm bad with sample sachets, they linger in my makeup bag for months on end before I realise they've gone off and finally chuck them out. However, considering that I'm already a fan of their Moisture Match range, I decided I'd go for it and use the sample immediately.
In case you didn't know, Garnier's Moisture Match line is five different moisturisers designed for various skin types eg. very dry, oily/combination, dull skin. They come in three different formulas - some are creams, some are gels and some are lotions. They all retail at £3.99 from Boots which I think is a very reasonable price for the amount (50 ml). I own a full size version of the one for dull skin as I like a boost of radiance in the morning, and it has lasted for far longer than I'd ever initially expected.
I probably shouldn't have taken such a macro photo, the high resolution really does show off my wrinkly hands - oh dear. Anyway, this is what the product looks like. It's just a fairly thick but not sticky white cream and it has a lovely fragrance. I can only describe the scent as like perfume! It's not floral or sweet, it just smells like any generic perfume might although you wouldn't notice it after you've rubbed it in.
Speaking of, this is how the product looks once it has sunken in - barely there, just left with a nice glow. I used this on my chin, jawline, cheeks, the corners of my mouth and my nose. Seven hours later, my skin feels pleasantly hydrated - a first for me! I have to recommend this to anyone with dry skin, I can't believe how long it lasts in comparison to more expensive moisturisers! I will definitely be purchasing a full size version of this product. A moisturiser that does the job all day (especially for dry skin) is not something to be ignored!
Have you tried any of the Garnier Moisture Match moisturisers?

It definitely is, and same! I wish more magazines had samples in them xx
DeleteI havn't tried the moisture match products for Garnier yet but they are definitely next on my list. Although I will definitely be going for the oily/combination skin version. It'll be interesting to see how they compare as sometimes there is quite a difference. Lovely post :)
