Garnier Gentle Soothing Face wash (For All skin types)-Review

Garnier is one particular brand, with which I have a love-hate relationship. I love the typical garnier smell in all there products,yet wish they could have been different, I didn't have good experience earlier with their hair care range or face washes. But last winter when I saw this face wash (mentioned for all skin types) ,I wanted to give it a try (Yes ! am kinda obsessed with face washes and presently have 5-6 of them ) :D :D

Garnier has three face washes from this rage-

• Garnier face wash with orange extract (For all skin type)
• Garnier face wash with mint extract (Oily to combination skin)
• Garnier pure exfoliating face wash with eucalyptus leaf extract (For oily and combination skin)

What the product claims – It is gentle yet effective daily face wash that respects all skin types
How does it works – Its unique formula blends a soap free gel with selected natural ingredients.

• Alpha Hydroxy Acid- Extracted from fruits, helps your skin regain a healthy glow.
• A natural moisturising agent counteracts the drying effect of water
• A gentle cleansing agent respects your skin’s natural balance

How to apply -  Apply on wet face. Gently massage in with fingertips concentrating on foreheard, nose and chin avoiding eye contour. Rinse thoroughly. Use twice daily. Follow up with essential care daily moisturising lotion.

Price- 42 INR for 50gms

What I Liked about Garnier Gentle Soothing Face wash (for all skin types)-

• It is a gel based product. Perfect for hot summers ! It gives a refreshing cool feeling
• It is a mild cleanser. It never dries out my otherwise combination-dry skin,and controls oil near my t-zone for a decent time
• Doesn't lather much, but that's okay.It produced optimum lather to clen your face and not like other harsh face washes
• Affordable and easily available
• Comes in a travel friendly tube packaging
• Has a mild typical garnier product smell,which I actually like

What I didn't like about Garnier Gentle soothing Face wash (for all skin types)-

• Its not for winters specially if you have a combination to dry skin. 
• Being a mild gel based product,its not an effective cleanser.It does not help in removing makeup, or if you have oily skin you may not this one for good oil control.
• contains parabens as preservatives

My Rating -3/5

Final Verdict- This is a mild cleanser specially suitable for those with combination and sensitive skin,specially in summers. It might not be a good choice for severely oily /dry skin.
