garnier skin naturals light daily moisturiser spf 15 review

 this cream was purchased at 99p store and is a very good brand. the cream promises clarify and smooth skin also moisturise, protect skin from sun and harmful UVA & UVB rays. and helps prevent dark spots.
 the cream has a pearly white colour and thick milky consistency.



 it has a skin chart to show how much lighter the dark spots could fade to. contains spf 15
 when i tested this cream i liked the light perfumed scent it had. i've used this cream and i think it has helped to protect my face and slightly fade dark spot scars on my face. but its not very effective at completely removing the dark spots. 

 when i placed it on my skin it felt drying, not very moisturising. would be good for oily skin. when i rubbed in the cream it changed to a light blue colour because of the sun block in it. the blue fades away after it sinks into the skin. 


this is the final result of how my skin looked after using the cream. so over all i would give the cream a 3 out of 5 because i liked the results however i wouldn't buy it again because of how drying it is on the skin. if the cream was more moisturising then i would have given it a 4 out of 5 but it's so drying i need to apply a second moisturiser after using this.

skin care

basically the first step to better skin is drink water. i know you have heard this 1000 timed but i'll say it again you need!!! water! it dosn't mater how expencive the acne and spot treatments are if you don't drink water your skin will never clear up.

you should buy a good face cleanser organic is best because there are less chemicals.Use a dime-sized bit of cleanser, then rinse with cool or lukewarm water. You'll also want to take off your makeup with a proper makeup remover.

exfoliating skin once a week with a microdermabrasion kit keeps skin glowing year-round. Make sure you use a gentle scrub with tiny grains. Big grains in cheap scrubs can tear skin and cause more harm than good. to make a scrub you can get
Honey, Lemon, and Cornmeal that can be found at any grocery store. The medium size bowl will do just fine for mixing these ingredients together.Place 1 cup of cornmeal into the mixing bowl. Squeeze 1 lemon into the mixing bowl. Use the pulp of the lemon as well by spooning out the lemon but discard of the seeds. Squeeze or pour as much honey as it takes to make a creamy texture. Stir. The mixture is now ready to be used or refrigerated.
While in the shower or bath after skin is moistened, gently begin to exfoliate your skin in a circular motion. When cleansing the face keep your eyes closed. Gently scrub the face and neck with the mixture for about 1 minute. Rinse well, especially the eye area. You should notice a definite change in texture in about 3 days, as well as everyone else.This mixture can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks in an airtight container

you must moistrize the skin after you have washed it this is a important step for skin care
