    I have only been using this for about 4 days and I already notice a difference in the tone of my skin as well as the texture! I can't wait to see how it is by the end of this bottle! This does not leave my skin feeling greasy or clog my pores. I have already recommended this product to friends and will be buying some for myself once this bottle is gone!!

    *This product was sent to me by the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club to test and review.

    My skin type is oily combination skin and I use 2 pumps of this every morning. I've been using the moisturizer religiously everyday after I received the product. It's been a week now and I feel my skin looks more even. In terms of the brightening power, I'll have to keep using it before I can determine if it does what it claims to do.

    I love that this moisturizer comes in a pump bottle (very hygienic and convenient). Also, I love the added bonus of SPF 15 which is good for everyday sun protection. The scent is decent and will fade away eventually. The moisturizer is hydrating yet feels light. Even though I use 2 pumps, the product sinks in fairly well.

    In terms of the price point, I feel $20.99 is quite expensive for a day cream. However, if the brightening and smoothing properties of this moisturizer is significant, I might repurchase it.

    After 7 weeks of use, I don't see any significant brightening or smoothing properties. So the product functions like a normal moisturizer with some SPF in it. For that reason, I won't be repurchasing it again.

    I received a free bottle of Garnier SkinActive Clearly Brighter Brightening & Smoothing Moisturizer from ChickAdvisor to test and review. (Thanks for the opportunity ChickAdvisor & Garnier!)

    I absolutely love this product! It's not oily or greasy like some other facial moisturizers, it's quick absorbing, has a nice light scent and instantly makes your shin feel softer and less dry.
    After a week I noticed my skin tone was much more even, and even my fine lines around my eyes were much less noticeable.

    I wish I could have tested out the SPF quality, unfortunately it's the middle of February and bitterly cold, so I'm only outside long enough to get to the car and back :P

    The retail price for a bottle is around $20, which I think is a very fair price.

    I received the Garnier SkinActive Clearly Brighter Brightening & Smoothing Moisturizer as a sample through the Chick Advisor Product Review Club. I truly enjoyed using this product. It went on easily and wasn't greasy. Ithad a light pleasant scent as well as a light creamy texture. During my review of the product I noticed that my dry skin was very moist and looked better generally. At over $20 a bottle, I may continue to use this product in the future but I do find it a bit pricey. I would have to continue to use it and see more benefits before I could truly decide to buy it again.

    I received a sample of this product to try in the mail. It is a very effective moisturizer without any heavy or sticky feeling to it. It isn't greasy, and goes on very smooth. I do find the perfume of it a bit too strong, but that is only noticeable while applying, it's not something you smell throughout the day. I would recommend this cream.

    I love the Garnier Skin Active. The pump bottle make it easy to use. The lotion itself is very light and absorb very quick. It smells very good too. The SPF 15 is a plus. I found it is very important to have some sunscreen in our daily use. The price, 20.99, is a little bit too much for me. But apart of that, I think it is a very good product!

    I received this moisturizer for free with Chick Advisor. I have been using it for over a week now and I love it. It is light, non greasy and absorbs quickly into my skin. It has a nice citrus scent and is gentle on my skin. I love that it also has an SPF 15 protection as well. I have been using it after I cleanse with the Garnier Micellar cleansing water. My skin feels tighter and more refined.

    I've always wanted to try some of Garnier's new SkinActive products. Thanks to ChickAdvisor, I was able to try the Clearly Brighet Brightening 7 Smoothing Moisturizer for free. My first impression was positive. This is a great moisturizer! It has a light scent which I really like and it feels super light on your skin. Not greasy at all. It also has SPF 15 which I think is a bonus. Right now I'm using a separate moisturizer and sunscreen for my face but this is way more convenient! I also love that this can be found at the drugstore and is affordable. I am super glad I was able to try this. I highly recommend this product!

    I love products that contain SPF in them, since I often forget to apply sunscreen.This was a typical cream formula, one pump is good for the entire face.

    My skin absorbed it nicely and it didn't leave behind a greasy residue. It hasn't been long enough to tell if it's doing any brightening or smoothing, however my skin does feel quite soft after using it.

    In the winter, I usually get a few dry patches on my cheeks and a slightly oily T-zone, and I've noticed that my dry patches are not as visible. No real changes to my T-zone though (but it's not worse, so I'll take that!)
