Amazing serum, especially for the price point. I give this Garnier Super Hydrating 3in1 Serum Gel a 10 out of 10. Everything about it is perfection and I am very critical about skincare . First, the packaging is nice. it is a plastic bottle with a pump. From the look you would think it was glass. It is fragrance free and contains hyaluronic acid and aloe vera. The concept is it can be used as an all in one serum, moisturizer and eye cream. I am extra though so I use it as a serum and still use my regular eye cream and moisturizer. I love the gel texture, it glides over skin and feels way more expensive than it is. The serum dries down pretty quickly and does not leave a sticky or greasy texture so it seems suitable for all skin types. It does not burn when you apply it around the sensitive eye area like alot of products do to me. It also sits beautiful under makeup. The serum does not pill up or mess with the application of foundation in anyway and I have tried it under 6 different formulas. As for the long term results, just after one night of applying I woke up in the morning and immediately noticed my skin looked a little less red in the cheek area then it normally does. It give enough hydration for daytime use without being too much. At night I would use it with a heavy moisturizer if you have dry skin to give you some extra hydration as this alone may not be enough. I love everything about this and will be repurchasing when I run out. The other products in the same line are all amazing as well. I highly recommend to anyone as I feel this is suitable for all skin types.
Not a stand alone product for me. When I saw that this was a 3-in-1 serum, moisturizer and eye gel formula I was intrigued but, also a bit worried it wouldn't be enough. I'm a person that loves layering my skincare products and I tend to lean on the drier side these days, if not normal (depending on the weather). However, since it has hyaluronic acid and aloe vera, I was hoping this might be good for the summer heat. Also, the fact that it's fragrance free is a huge plus!I do like a few of garnier's skincare products, especially their micellar water, it removes makeup (even waterproof) like no cleansing water or wipe I've ever tried. I like the bottle and the easy lock/unlock pump, makes me feel like this would travel well and worry free. Unfortunately, as a stand alone product this moisturizer wasn't enough for me. I like how the gel feels nice and cool upon application and a little actually goes a long way, one pump will cover your entire face and neck. Usually, gels tend to absorb a bit too fast for me so, this was a definite pro. Applying on it's own, straight after cleansing, I did notice that it left a little bit of a sticky/tacky feeling on my skin once it dried down and I also felt it fell short on making my skin feel moisturized enough. However, layering a creamier, richer moisturizer or a moisturizing facial oil over top did take care of both of those issues. It might just be a placebo effect since I tend to slather on richer products but, I definitely felt I needed a layer of something more creamy for that tackiness to subside and make my skin feel comfortable. Perhaps it would work out better for myself on a beach day or waterpark/theme park day. I experienced zero irritation or breakouts so, this product would probably be great for acne prone and sensitive skin types, also I think this product would be great for people who don't like the feeling of heavier moisturizers. I found for myself that this works best as a layered serum for extra hydration that definitely helped keep my skin moisturized longer. But again, as for a stand alone product, this one is just not for me and I do not foresee myself purchasing this in the future for just the hydration benefits, while I have other hydrating serums that do the same, plus more. If you like a quick, simple, no hassle skincare routine then I would definitely reccomend giving this a try at least. I would also recommend as an easy way to avoid any stickiness or tackiness without layering heavier products over top of this, would be to start your routine after cleansing with hydrating toner or essence, that will definitely help this type of formula absorb better, in my opinion.

I love this for quick mornings! It makes betting ready a breeze. Just one step covers all the basic needs for the day. It is light and soaks in my skin perfectly. It also dries quickly and isnt tacky at all. It also doesnt pill on my skin.

My go to face serum after a hot shower. My face would feel dry and tight and this serum comes to the rescue. The scent is not too strong and the texture is not sticky. It really is effective. I wake up and my face feels smooth and not dry.

I would rate this product five stars! I use it daily. It is very hydrating, but it also does not feel heavy on the face. I also like that there is no fragrance added. I have sensitive skin.

To start off I have super sensitive skin. I got this because it contains aloe and that is recommended for sensitive skin along with my dermatitis and acanthosis nigricans. it has helped so much to soothe my super dry skin in those areas while also not leaving me greasy. I love that it is 3 in one! Makes my no or light make up days skin care routine so much faster. If you're on the fence I hope this review has helped!
