I've had this laying around forever and I recently started using it just to finish off what was left over.
The things I liked most about this product were the lightweight feel and the way it leaves my skin feeling afterwards. It has a very light gel consistency. To me there was no noticeable scent, which is a good thing. I put this on at night after cleansing my skin. When it first sinks in it leaves my skin feeling almost a bit sticky, but only for a couple minutes. In the morning my skin looks bright and feels nice and smooth.
I don't think this broke me out. I wouldn't purchase this again because I feel like it is a very average moisturizer, nothing unique about it.

I love this moisturizer. I have oily skin but with dry patches mixed in. It's lightweight and doesn't clog my pores yet keeps my skin feeling hydrated all day. It has really balanced out my skin texture and my acne has improved. I also love the smell, it's fresh and fruity.

I really love this face cream. I own the anti-ageing one and after two days of using it, my pores look noticeably smaller. It smells really nice and sinks in to the skin very well. My skin is also very soft and looks smoother. The only reason this doesn't get a 5 from me is because it makes my skin a teeny bit oily, and i have combination/oily skin anyway. Overall i think this is an excellent product for the price and i will be buying again.

I bought this cream one week ago since I had no moisturizer left - I'm usually using La Roche Posay cream or a Dove one. This one caught my eye while I was searching for my Dove cream and since its price was cheap - I think it was $8 - I decided to buy it and test it.

I washed my face as usual, then moisturized my face with the cream. The smell is very good; it smells a bit like grapes and lavender. I don't really like creams with a smell because they irritate my face, but this one doesn't. I dislike using new creams because my skin is very sensitive but that one didn't make me break out or something. My skin was fresh and left my face very soft. Even my La Roche Posay cream didn't make my face soft like that (I have a very problematic skin and during winter, is SO dry.)

The only thing I would say about that is that it leaves my nose and my forehead a bit oily and the freshness is absolutely not during 24h. My rating would be something like 4 but I recommend buying this cream if you want something that leave your skin super-soft.

I LOVE this! If you have combination skin it's so great because it's like a gel texture, and it's the perfect amount of moisture for dry areas AND areas that tend to get oily, which need moisture so they don't overproduce oil! It seriously keeps my skin so nice, and it's the first moisturizer yet that I feel like it doesn't make my skin look greasy if i wear it during the day under my makeup :)

For its price, I think it's a good moisturizer. I have dry skin, but after spending around 6 hours outside during summer, my skin tends to be really oily. However, this moisturizer helped my skin not to be oily.
The moisturizer is really light and watery. The only thing I don't like is that when I first put it on, it leaves a sticky finish to my face.

Broke me out but has excellent oil control. It kept the oil away for a good 8 hours before I had to blot.

I like this product a lot. I prefer lighter moisturizers that resemble gels, like this one. I think it will be perfect to use in the summer, but right now in the winter it just doesn't feel like it is moisturizing enough for my skin.
EDIT: I must have not been that impressed because I haven't touched this stuff in a year.

I bought this as a in between moisturizer, because when I get home from work I'd wash my face, and between that and the time I shower, is about 4 hours. I need something so that my face does not feel tight and dry between the 4 hours, obviously I do not want to use the pricy stuff that costs me $$ per bottle/.jar. So I always use drug store moisturizer as my in between moisturizer so I dont feel like my wallet is bleeding when I take a shower and wash my face again.

That being said, this was not so great. Had I bought this for regular moisturiziner it would probablly get a 1 for overall rating. It's fine as a mositurizer, but a few hours later my face starts getting greasy. It does not easily absorb into the skin and leaves a greasy feeling. I dont feel very mositurized with it on. I think my cetephill does a much better job. I will not repurchase, and prob try something else as an in between.

I love this product! Very lightweight and easy to apply. When I wear foundation (which I do rarely), I usually mix the liquid foundation with this moisturizer for a dewy and non-cakey look. It's not miracle moisturizer, but it's very comfortable to wear and a delight to apply. Yummy scent and fast absorption, i found.

I bought this to use under my foundation as I've ran out of my regular Exuviance and I needed a quick fix for a dry spot on my forehead.
For my dry spots it did nothing. My skin actually broke out on my forehead. I have acne-prone skin and I guess quick fixes just aren't for me.

Great moisturizer! It smells awesome and moisturizes my skin just enough to keep it soft and flake-free without making me break out.
I have an oily/acne-prone t-zone with normal skin on my cheeks and this product works great on both areas to keep my skin balanced.
I have been using this for over two years and would recommend it to anyone!

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: Garnier Fresh 24hr Hydrating Day Cream is ideal as part of a daily routine for normal and combination skin. The formula with pure fruit waters and vitamin E gives your skin all the vitamins that it needs to protect the skin and keep it healthy. Apply to entire face every evening on a perfectly cleansed skin. [more]

MY THOUGHTS: I've been using Garnier's Fresh 24hr Hydrating Day Cream for over two years now. I don't need to use a lot of this product since I have combination/oily skin which keeps my skin hydrated naturally. However, occasionally my skin will dry up elsewhere, e.g. arms, hands, and this product is the perfect remedy. Just last week I only needed to apply a dime-sized amount of this product to a dry patch on my hand and it solved the problem. No reapplications were required. I have received compliments from my boyfriend exclaiming how soft my face feels (compared to a baby's bottom). You know a product is working when someone else notices a difference.
 
After performing an oil migration test, I discovered this product had a positive result.

great moisturizer, smells great and makes my skin soft, also doesn't give me any break outs

only small drawback is, if you put on too much it can make ur face look shiney and look like you have a layer of film on ur face, so you don't need put too much

but overall i would highly recommend this, absolutely love the scent, and it makes a good base for make-up

LOVE IT!!! I'm a competitive swimmer, and my skin gets really dry during competitions. This moisturizer eliminated all dryness and made my skin soft and smooth again. HG for sure.
EDIT: This ended up giving me lots of whiteheads. Try Spectro Hydracare lotion for dry skin; even better moisturizing, but no breakouts!

This is my go-to moisturizer. I switched to an unscented Olay facial moisturizer for sensitive skin because I thought it might be more moisturizing, but switched back to this one before I was even halfway through the Olay bottle. Olay made my usually well-behaved skin break out, but Garnier Fresh never does.


This moisturizer has a very light fruity apple scent, and I LOVE the consistency. Never greasy, it leaves my skin feeling soft and dewy. The only reason I didn't give five lippies is that it's just a tiny bit too light. My cheeks do start to get a little dry by the end of the day during the winter, but it's absolutely perfect throughout the rest of the year. I would add on another lippie if Garnier would make this with SPF 15.

I LOVE this moisturizer.
About a year and a half ago, my combo/acne prone skin was absolutely terrible. I had bad acne (the swollen, red kind that hurts), I used spot treatments to try to get of the zits & most of the products I used dried out my skin so bad, I could peel it.
When I would use moisturizers, even ones supposedly made for acne prone skin, my skin would get really oily and break out even more.
Now, after trying SOO many different products, I finally have a working skin routine and my skin is usually almost completely clear.
This moisturizer is probably one of the best parts of my new skin routine because it smells good, DOESN'T MAKE ME BREAK OUT and moisturizes my skin (especially my cheeks- and I dry out there pretty easily) without making my t-zone oily.
Also, just so you know, I've been using this product along with the rest of my current skin routine for over a year.

This is a nice moisturizer. Pros: smells great, didn't break me out, cheap. Cons: Doesn't moisturize enough when my skin is really dry (if I put it on after a shower, it feels like it doesn't absorb and just sits on top of my skin), can't get everything out of the tube near the end. I wouldn't re-purchase.
