Review on Garnier Aqua Defense Essense



This is a review about The Garnier Aqua Defense Essense. It's not a paid review ya I just want to share with you guys the pros and cons of this product. I bought this moisturizer a long time ago and I still have it like a little residue left but I don't want to use it anymore because I have a better moisturizer.



The Garnier Aqua Defense Essense comes in a light green gel form in a tub. The tub is big and cute.


So here is what Garnier says about the moisturizer :


Daily stress and pollution can dehydrate your skin and cause it look dull and dry. Garnier new upgraded Aqua Defense non-stop intensive hydrating essence, enriched with Mountain Spring Water -- helps enhance skin's natural water retention ability; anti-oxidant white tea & green tea extract -- helps protect skin from external aggressions, giving you a smooth and soft complexion.

Direction for use :


Use it every morning and evening, apply on perfectly cleanse face and neck.

Ingredients :


Aqua/water, glycerin, alcohol, dimethicone, isononyl isononanoate, vitis vinifera extract/grape fruit water, carbomer, calcium gluconate, camellia sinensis leaf extract, dimethiconol, sodium citrate, sodium hydroxide, actinidia chinensis water/kiwi fruit water, magnesium gluconate, ascorbyl glucoside, caprylyl glycol, tetrasodium EDTA, biosaccheride gum-1, xanthan gum, menthoxypropanediol, tocopheryl acetate, phenoxyethanol, chlorphenesin, CI 19140, CI 42090, linalool, hydroxyisohexyl 3-cyclohexene caeboxaldehyde, butylphenyl methylpropional, benzyl alcohol, benzyl salicylate, parfum.


After I tried the moisturizer ..

This moisturizer has a minty feeling and makes me feels like there is alcohol on it, makes my face feel so weird and it kinda stings a bit though.

When you look at the ingredient, it has an alcohol, maybe that's why my face stings when I applied the moisturizer.

I have a dry skin so it doesn't really help on hydrating my skin that much. But it's so-so lah. I read on the review and someone said that "it can sting when you first apply it, but the gel absorbs so quickly that the stinging doesn't last and after using it for a few days your skin should be so well moisturized that you'll no longer get the stinging anyway." 

Sighs I just wish that worked on me but sadly it doesn't.

It may be worked on anyone else, who knows? It depends on the person and the skin type.

So here's the verdict :

Pros:

i) It doesn't break me out.

ii) It's cheap and affordable. You can get it at Watson or Guardian.

Cons:

i) The gel texture gives a refreshing feeling, but it doesn't keep my face moisturised for the entire day. After 4-5 hours, my face feels greasy.

ii) The moisturizer irritates my skin.

iii) The smell can be a little bit strong.

The Garnier Aqua Defense is available at local pharmacies and it's not that hard to find. That's all I guess. Thank you so much for reading this haha

Stay beautiful, ladies.
