Garnier Pure Active Range Review


I was wondering round Boots, as I do, constantly...
I came across a stand featuring new products from the Garnier Pure Active range - of course I saw '3 for 2 on Skincare', and instantly had to investigate.

The new products are designed for combination to oily & blemish prone skin - to which my face lit up, these sounded perfect! I ended up buying the Micellar Cleansing WaterMatte Control Moisturiser, and the 2 in 1 Wipes.

Micellar Cleansing Water - £4.99



I love the original Garnier Micellar Water, so when I saw the same product, but for oily skin, I had to pick it up! I use this to remove my make-up, and it leaves my skin feeling soft and fresh, and it really does remove every scrap of make-up.
It doesn't have any scent, and I find it's definitely more mattifying than the original micellar water. A must for the oily sufferers out there!

Matte Control Moisturiser - £6.99



It's a mattifying moisturiser, it targets breakouts, and controls oil for 8 hours. What's not to love right?!
The moisturiser is a blue light gel consistency, which I find sinks in the skin, and leaves it feeing matte but still hydrated. This contains salicylic acid, which is great for oily skin! I applied this alone without any primer, and then applied my make-up as normal, and I found after a 9 hour shift at work, my make-up was still intact! Of course, there was a little oil around my chin, but it was barely noticeable!

2 in 1 Wipes - £3.26



I'm not a massive make-up wipe person - I actually never use make-up wipes to remove any product, however they are useful for quickly cleansing your skin. I picked these up as they were technically free on the '3 for 2' offer in Boots. You get 25 wipes, which do contain salicylic acid (yay), and I do find that they mattify and refresh my skin. I used them after removing my make-up with the micellar water, just to cleanse and clarify the skin. I don't know if I'd buy them full price, simply because I go through make-up wipes far too quickly - although if they were on offer, I'd definitely pick them up again.

Have you tried this range? Let me know!
Until next time,
