Review: Garnier Moisture Match Lotion for Normal Skin

I actually have combination skin, but as I am getting

older, I have noticed my skin becoming a little more "normal", so

when searching for a new oil-free moisturiser with sun protection for

the summer, I decided to opt for the new Garnier Moisture Match Illuminating

Light Lotion for Normal Skin with SPF20.

This moisturiser is like sunshine in a tube, from the

adorable yellow packaging to the subtle illuminating properties, slight

lemon/floral scent and sun protection.

The ultra-light lotion is nice and easy to apply, and absorbs quickly, leaving

your skin soft, smooth and very slightly illuminated. By illuminated, I

mean it perks your skin up and makes it "glow", but nothing shimmery

or greasy.

The oil-free formula means that it is suitable for my combination skin,

in that it doesn't produce any oil on my face. Having said this, it

also doesn't make any particular effort to keep oil at bay either, making

it necessary to finish up with a powder. This doesn't bother me, though, as

I use a powder no matter what I'm wearing, but people

with oily skin may want to opt for a moisturiser that specifically targets

oil.

I tend to have quite sensitive skin, but do not have a problem

with this moisturiser, making it perfect for everyday. I also feel like

my skin is nicely moisturised for the whole day, although on particularly

sunny days you won't be able to rely on only one application

of this in the morning for sun protection.

Overall, this is a nice moisturiser with a bonus of sun protection and

skin radiance. The 50ml tube costs only £5.99, making it relatively inexpensive

compared to other products of its kind. In my opinion, it is worth a try!
