Garnier 7 Day Intensive Moisturiser: Review

Hello everyone!

If you read my Superdrug haul post you'll have seen that I succumbed to the new moisturiser on offer from Garnier. After getting a sample of the shea butter formula in Cosmopolitan magazine, I was hooked and had to buy a bottle to try out.

Here's the bottle, although you've probably seen it already:


Now I know what you're probably thinking: it hasn't even been 7 days yet so why is she doing a review?
Well, although I can't say it's Holy Grail, I already LOVE this product!

I got the one with nourishing shea butter intended for dry to extra-dry skin which I suffer from. I am used to a moisturiser soaking into my skin then disappearing and not keeping me hydrated, but this moisturiser makes my skin feel soft and supple all day - not to mention it smells gorgeous!

The only downside for me is that the formula is quite runny where I expected it to be thick, but it actually works well and a little goes a long way!

I bought it for £2.99 but you can get a bigger bottle for £4.99.

If any of you have tried Garnier 7 Day Intensive or any of their other products I'd love to hear about it!

Superdrug Haul

Hello there!

Along with popping into River Island, I paid Superdrug a visit too as I was in need of a new kohl eyeliner.
Here's what I got:



Rimmel had a 3 for 2 offer on so I picked up their kohl eyeliner. I also got a Lasting Finish nail polish in 030 Double Decker Red. I love red nails and this looked like a lovely shade to try out. I'm a big fan of Rimmel nail polishes.
I also got a Moisture Renew lipstick in the shade 260 Amethyst Shimmer which I plan to do a review on soon so watch out for that!

I'm always on the hunt for a Holy Grail foundation. I've been using and loving Max Factor's Xperience foundation but it just isn't quite perfect. My friend recommended Bourjois' Healthy Mix foundation so I got it in the shade 51 which was the palest shade. Again I'll review this :)

I was drawn to the Gosh nail lacquers because I picked up a gorgeous orange one last time I was in Superdrug. I wasn't disappointed and found the stunning sparkly lacquer in 562 Magic Star. I think it will look great layered over other polishes.

I'm going on a night out tomorrow night in celebration of my 19th birthday so in order to look extra glam I got some Ardell falshes lashes in 101 Demi. They look thick and full but not over the top.

Last but not least I got a bottle of Garnier's new 7 Day Intensive moisturiser. I got the one with shea butter for very dry skin as that is definately my skin type, and I got a free sample of it in Cosmopolitan and loved the scent. I'll be trying this out every day so I'll update you on how it goes.

And that's it! Hope you enjoyed reading.
