Garnier Moisture Match | Review


Hi guys! I have almost run out of my YON-KA pamplemousse moisturiser that I received in my December Joliebox. So when I was in Boots on Sunday I was looking for a new moisturiser. I have very dry skin and my all time favourite moisturiser is Clarins Hydraquench but this retails at £34.00 and I cannot justify spending this on a small tub of cream!

So whilst in Boots looking for an affordable moisturiser I saw the Garnier Moisture Match which is their new line of moisturisers which are tailored to every skin type. The range includes 5 moisturisers  one for normal, normal/dry, dry/very dry, dull and combination oily skin types so they pretty much cover every skin type. I picked up the pink one which is for dry to very dry skin. It says on the box that it is "24hour hydration, non greasy, fast absorbing, ultra hydrating."



This particular one comes in a pink tube. Depending on your skin type the packaging colour will be different. It has 50ml of product, the ingredients include camelia oil and shea butter. It has a really nice light floral scent. When I put this on my face it felt lovely, really hydrating and made my skin feel very smooth. 




As it said on the box it did absorb into my skin very quickly which I really liked as it left my skin feeling nice and prepared to start applying my makeup. I hate it when a moisturiser leaves a slight residue on your skin. I find a lot of moisturisers that are tailored for dry skin tend to do this and it just makes your makeup slide off quicker.


So far I really like this moisturiser and it was really cheap (currently £3.99 in Boots). I can’t say what the other ones are like but if you have dry skin and struggle trying to find a decent affordable moisturiser then I definitely recommend going to Boots and getting one of these whilst their on offer!

Seventh Heaven



I have been using MeMeMe's seventh heaven now for 3 days and I think it's amazing. I have always used Clarins HydraQuench and thought that I'd never find anything better but I have! 

Seventh heaven is a moisturising face base. It has the most amazing citrus scent and really works on my dry skin! My makeup also goes on so smoothly on top of the seventh heaven cream. My partner who never notices my skin/makeup even said "your make up looks nice today" and when I asked him what he meant he said "your skin looks smoother" - this must be good if he noticed! The packaging is really cute as is all of MeMeMe's packaging. 



On the back of the box -"Rich yet lightweight the Moisturising Facebase is enriched with Shea Butter, Vitamin A and Beta-Carotene to rejuvenate, nourish and hydrate skin. Active nutrients and extracts work to brighten, smooth and even out skin tone to prime and create the perfect base for makeup application"



I was lucky enough to have been given this at a recent MeMeMe event that I went to but it only costs £15.00 for 30ml and compared to my usual £33.50 for 50ml of HydraQuench I will definitely buy this again as it will save me a lot of money and to be honest its better!
