I was really excited to try this product. I liked that the brush was very soft and that the bottle was easy to hold and use. The cleanser was also very light and I liked how it foamed up when using it. I didn't notice a big difference in my complexion. I have combination skin with some imperfections. It states on the bottles that you will notice smoother skin after just one use. I didn't really notice that either. In saying that, I only recieved the product about 5 days ago so maybe with a week or two I would have noticed more changes in my skin. It gave a nice clean feeling and it had a nice light fragrance. All in all not a bad product.
I just received this product recently and it has only been 4 days that I have been using it. Very easy to use, however a little harder compared with other facial washes, where you use your hands.
Initially I thought that the brusher would be a little rougher, however the texture of the bristles are soft and it seems to be effective so far. I feel like you are getting some exfoliation as well as getting a massage, therfore stimulating the blood flow.
The scent is nice, however I can see it be a little strong for people who are not used to scented facial washers. The cleanser seems to be mild (not very soapy!). After 4 uses so far along with the moisturizer, my skin feels smooth, rejuvinated and clean. I think the key is the moisturizer..
I would definitely recommend the cleanser ALONG with the moisturizer to see a difference.
Product was easy to use, though you have to twist/squeeze it to get the gel out, and I felt the gel didnt come out all the way to the tips properly and remained at the bottom, or you had to use more than usual to get enough for the whole face.
I wish the brush was more rough...super soft, but I like exfoliators. I think those are the best to get super clean skin. I liked the smell of the product alot!!! I usually dont but it smelt great!! I don't know how effective it is at creating an even tone but smelt great.
Seems like a very mild formula. My skin felt clean afterward but nothing out of the normal. The moisturizer was great and sunk right in but since I get really dry skin after i wash, this was normal. But the moisturizer wasn't oily which was great :) This product is good for a general clean, not aggressive clean. I really like that super clean feel because my face gets oily throughout the day. This product would be good for ppl with sensitive skin or who dont like to scrub hard. Smells great though!! I'd buy it again for days when I have pimples or for use when skin is super sensitive.
At first, I thought the bristles would be super stiff and too abrasive on my sensitive skin, but they turned out to be really gentle. I'm a person who needs to see their cleanser foam up to know that it's really cleaning my skin and with the gel cleanser along with the scrubbing head, I felt like I got a seriously deep clean. It's ridiculously easy to use over the sink (the only place I've tried it so far) and it stores easily. My only problem is the scent, as I tend to be wary when using fragranced products on my face.
I also really enjoyed the moisturizer they sent along with it. It sunk right into my skin and was easy to wear under makeup. I like the fact that there is caffeine in the product so I've also been using it under my eyes in the morning to help with my bags. Nothing dramatic yet, but I plan to continue using both the cleanser and moisturizer for the two weeks recommended (I only just got it this Thursday). So far so good!
My first experience with a Garnier skincare product was quite disappointing so my expectations were on the low side.I was happy to be able to give Garnier another shot.
I thought it was pretty easy to use, I did find myself squeezing the bottle harder than I expected to. The brush itself looks harder than it is but it felt quite strange when I first used it. Like some kind of alien life form massaging my face (strange but it's what I thought when I used it). It was nice after that though, like getting a mini facial massage every morning and night. It made for a nice, gentle exfoliation which is great for my sensitive skin ( and my obsession with exfoliation).
Scent can be an issue with me but I thought it was light and pleasant. A nice change from other, medical smelling products. My boyfriend even commented on how nice it smelled. My face felt really refreshed after using it, especially when paired with the Garnier skin Renew Regenerating day cream. My skin felt soft and smooth. I thought it really did a great job at prepping my skin for my makeup, it went on better and looked great.
I think it's a good idea though I would probably made it easier to squeeze and perhaps designed differently for holding it which was a little awkward for me. I didn't use it in the shower because I like to see what I'm doing, besides I didn't really find it to be messy. I can't say my skin is more even toned as I haven't been using it long enough but I'm confident it will help with the overall appearance of my skin.
I would recommend it, especially if you have sensitive skin and prefer frequent exfoliation. I think the price is right, it is more than I am able to spend at the moment but I would be willing to spend a bit more on it.
The first thing I thought about this product was "Gimmick". I felt a little more than odd standing in my bathroom rubbing this thing all over my face, but to my surprise, after several seconds of light, circular motions, it started feel much like a massage. Ahh, relaxing! I only wish the scent was as soothing; personally, it was a little strong for my nose.
Though I've been using it twice a day, everyday since I received it in the mail on April 8th, I can't say I notice a drastic difference in my skin just yet. Obviously not enough time, but I do like that unlike most cream or gel cleansers, my skin feels really clean. I <3 scrubbing.
The product itself is easy enough to use. Twist open, turn upside down, squeeze, twist close, run under warm water and wash away the day! The soap doesn't drip down your face, but I did find using the brush over my nose flung some around. This wouldn't be a big deal in the shower, but in front of the mirror...well, you get the idea.
All in all, this product is pretty good. I'll give it more time before I decide whether I'd purchase it on my own though.
Stay tuned!
As someone with relatively sensitive and acne prone skin, if I'm not careful, I'm fairly cautious about trying out new products. When I find something that works, I like to stick to it. However, I had the opportunity to try Garnier Skin Renew Brusher Gel-Cleanser and figured that the whole brush/massager system was interesting enough for me to give it a shot at least once.
Now, don't get me wrong, it is nice. Make sure to wet your face first (I forgot, initially, after getting caught up in brush preparation and the brush didn't glide very well over my dry skin) and the massage will feel absolutely lovely. Even if the brush preparation is a little bit of a pain when you're used to just squirting some cleanser into your hands and rubbing them together, it's an invigorating feeling. The brush is gentle and soft and distributes the product well over your skin.
My only issue with the product is how it left my skin feeling. No matter how much I rinsed my face after applying the product, my skin felt a little slimy, like there was a layer of product left behind. This isn't a feeling I'm particularly fond of. After using this product, I had to wash my face a second time with my regular cleanser just to feel clean.
For someone with skin less sensitive than mine, this might be a great product and I absolutely love the brush idea. I won't continue to use it, but I bet some people out there are going to love this.
I got this product and the first time i used it in the shower it was a little tricky to figure out. make sure you hold the bottle upside down, swueeze and then close it up. but after i figured that out i was good to go. I like the brush. it was a little unexpected, i thought the bristles would be stiffer but they were quite soft, and gently on my face. I normally use a facial cleanser that exfoliates cause i really like my face to feel clean, its the kind of cleanliness i dont get with a cream cleanser. this gel formula has a mild scent and is easy on my skin while still feeling like i really cleaned my face. I feel liek my face is very soft, and i dont seem to have alot of dry patches.
My husband has a very dry patch of skin on between his eyebrows and has started using my facewash and he feels that there is less dead skin. I am still working on getting him to try the moisturizer though.
With the product review i got the Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Daily Regenerating Moisturizer Lotion and the moisturizer felt great on my face after i had washed it.
I have used this product both over the sink and in the shower. its one of few i use over the sink as it didnt make a huge mess, the soap stayed on my face not dripping everywhere
I am definatly going to buy this product again. both for myself and my husband
This product was really easy to use compared with using a washcloth or your hands. I thought the brush will feel rough on my skin, but I was very surprised that the bristles were very soft and flexible, easy to use. I liked the mildness of the cleanser and the scent was soft. My skin felt more fresher and very soft after using it. After using the moisturizer with it, I felt a difference in my skin tone. The cream was amazing, not greasy at all. I used the product over the sink, just a little bit messy but I can deal with it. I will definately reccomend this product to my friends and I will but these products again. Thank you ChickAdvisor and Garnier for letting me test this amazing product!
I totally loved the garnier skin renew brusher gel-cleanser, as I felt that it was cleaning a lot deeper than other cleansers I have tried. I felt that the brush allowed this product to clean better than other cleansers. I also felt that this product made my skin really smooth and shinny. I was also set a moisturizer to try out with this product and I love it as well. I love the smell, it it so refreshing and it moisturizes my skin without being greasy! I am really impressed!
