The product

When it comes to our skin care routines these days, we’re all about a ‘stress less’ mentality. And this means we’re opting for multipurpose formulas that allow us to consolidate multiple steps in our routine with ease, while still promising efficacious formulas.

Enter: Garnier Green Labs Hyalu-Melon Replumping Serum Cream SPF 15 and Garnier Green Labs Hyalu-Melon Smoothing Milky Cleanser.

Garnier Green Labs Hyalu-Melon Replumping Serum Cream SPF 15 combines your daily serum, moisturiser and SPF into one handy product. We’re talking a promise of 24 hours of hydration thanks to a formula that boasts ingredients you’d find in your favourite serum; hyaluronic acid and watermelon extract help to plump fine lines and battle dehydration, while SPF 15 provides that added protection.

The Garnier Green Labs Hyalu-Melon Smoothing Milky Cleanser packs a healthy dose of hyaluronic acid and watermelon extract too. This gentle yet effective cleanser helps to remove dirt, impurities and makeup for a clean face that doesn’t feel uncomfortable post-cleanse.

Here’s what our panel of Review Crew® testers had to say about the Garnier Green Labs Hyalu-Melon range.

The verdict

“I think [Garnier Green Labs Hyalu-Melon Replumping Serum Cream SPF 15] will be great for teens just starting to get into skincare or if you’re camping/travelling for a short time and need to consolidate your routine… It’s a lovely product. Definitely doesn’t feel like a serum, more of a moisturiser. I like the fact that it has SPF as I don’t leave the house without it on and I found this very convenient for those busy days when I had to get out the door fast. It didn’t leave any greasy residue or white cast... I honestly loved the way it felt and left my skin feeling.”

“The scent and texture of [Garnier Green Labs Hyalu-Melon Replumping Serum Cream SPF 15] is fabulous. It feels like a very hydrating moisturiser, with the added bonus of a little sunscreen. This 3-in-1 allows me to skip my serums /hyaluronic acid before my moisturiser, and then I still follow up with my normal SPF as it’s only SPF15. I love the feeling of my skin after using it too. The smell is great as well, it’s a really subtle watermelon scent, and definitely not overpowering which is fabulous. Also love that it’s made of recycled plastic, a great move by Garnier, hoping all their products go this way.”

“I was so pleasantly surprised with how good [Garnier Green Labs Hyalu-Melon Smoothing Milky Cleanser] is! I have absolutely no complaints. It foams really nicely on your face and it feels like you are getting a really good cleanse! It's a milky gel texture which I love as well. The smell is great and personally I love watermelon smelling products! The fragrance does not irritate your skin at all. With the wide range of cleansers I have sitting in my shower I always found myself reaching for this one first! I would highly recommend this to anyone that has dry flakey skin as it keeps your skin feeling plump.”

“I am really enjoying trialling [Garnier Green Labs Hyalu-Melon Smoothing Milky Cleanser]. I really like the milky consistency and it has made my face feel amazing. I have very sensitive skin and I found that this product did not irritate it at all and instead it was left silky smooth and moisturised. I also liked how you didn't need to use a lot of it to be effective. I also really enjoyed that it didn't have an overpowering scent. My skin felt moisturised for days after using this product and there were no signs of irritation.”
