My Experience with Garnier Skin Active Botanical Day Cream with Aloe Extract:

Garnier Skin Active Botanical Day Cream with Aloe Extract Review Box

The botanical cream comes in a plastic sealed cardboard package. There is a lot of information on the box. The cream comes in a white plastic tub with a light teal screw cap. There is no seal inside and it can get messy as it sits on the cap if the tub is inverted. But, there is no leakage outside. I usually keep my tub on the shelf upright and there are no issues.

The cream is very light and white in color. It feels very soft and creamy. It has a solid-fluffy consistency. The smell is very pleasant. It is mild and smells nothing like aloe vera! The fragrance stays for a short period of time and fades away.

The cream is lightweight and hardly feels on the skin. It gets absorbed instantly and adds a moisturized supple look onto the skin. It doesn’t leave a greasy residue but when you touch it for the first few minutes of application, it feels like there is something sitting on the skin. Once the cream is completely absorbed, it leaves a matte finish. The product did cause me break out initially and after that, I didn’t have any! The cream doesn’t cause any irritation or redness and is also made for sensitive skin.

The cream is a year-round product. Due to its lightweight formula, it can be a perfect option for the sun and intense nourishment makes it a good winter product.
