I never really intended to write about skincare on my blog as I am not a beautician and I have no idea about what different skin products will do for different skin types. However I wish to share the cleansing system I have been using for over 6 months. My skin type is dry and sensitive, if you are similar this could work for you!
The line up: Simply essentials cleansing wipes, Simply essentials 2-in-1 make up remover, Fresh essentials eye makeup remover, Soft essentials cleansing milk & Fresh essentials toner.
Fresh essentials is geared toward Normal/Combination skin
Soft essentials is for Dry Skin
Simply essentials is for Sensitive Skin
I did not intend to mix these up, I have just purchased these over time and they work for me!
Simply Essentials Wipes: These textured wipes are very thick and full of moisture. These are great for throwing in your handbag if you are staying over somewhere.
Simply Essentials 2-in-1 Make Up Remover: This product is relatively new to me so I cannot comment on the long term effects. It is made up of a blue oil and cleansing water. The idea is that you shake it up and pour it out onto a cotton wool pad. I do like this however it is a bit of a pain that if you do not act fast the oil floats to the top and you are left with that, ugh!
Fresh Essentials Eye Make Up remover: This is not my HG eye make up remover as it does still leave traces sometimes. However if you lay a cotton wool pad soaked in this on your eye for a few seconds, it does do quite a thorough job!
Soft Essentials Cleansing Milk: This was the first product I ever bought from this line and I have repurchased countless times. It is a very gentle, moisturising prouduct that literally ploughs through any remaining make up. I usually cleanse once to remove traces of make up and once more to cleanse my skin.
Fresh Essentials Toner: This is the final step of my makeup removal routine, I have tried harsh toners in the past however this one has never made my skin sting, so I like it!
What do you think about the Garnier line of skincare?
Do you own or have you tried any of these?

I have a very different type of skin type, although it is very sensitive too. I have combination/oily skin and it is very acne prone. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteI love it :-) I am very particular about removing makeup too! I dont like gel or oily makeup removers, so I have found that AHAVA works beautifully. for cleansing my skin i usually use ole henriksen and dermologica products. :-)
ReplyDeleteI love the Garnier skin line. I used it for years. I was using a cleanser and toner but i switched to Lush which helped my dry skin a lot more.
ReplyDeleteI still use a Garnier moisturizer though, it's never broken out my skin which they usually do. It's super light and smells so good!
@Charlene you are welcome! There is so many different types of skin problems, hope you find something that works for you :o) xxx
ReplyDelete@Megan oh lovely, I will check out those brands! I want to try dermalogica however it is so expensive here :( I feel the same as you about oily face products, that is why I am not keen on the make up remover as it turns to oil in seconds :( xxx
@kenzie oh really? I may try some lush if they are good for dry skin, my skin can be terribly dry, so much so that my skin soaks up my foundation sometimes :( I used to have the moisturiser too but I have switched to e45 lotion recently as my skin is so sensitive!
Thank you for commenting :o) xxxx
I love the eye make-up remover. It's especially good for when I'm having an allergy attack and my eyes are sore, it's the most soothing item ever.
ReplyDeleteI really love Garnier, but is it just me or have the prices slower become higher and higher?
