    Got this product to try for free and I quite like it! It is light weight and goes on smooth. I really liked that it was oil free and didn't cause any break outs. I didn't notice any brightness but I have only been using it for a week so far, hopefully, it gets better. Overall i would try it for longer and maybe but it again. It was a little pricey though.

    I got this product to try and I will say I quite like it. It is easy on the skin, absorb quite fast and non sticky nor smelly. I've only tried it for one week so I didn't really notice a huge difference in regards to the brightness of my skin.

    It was light to wear and having the spf in the winter is a requirement which is delightful. I was using the product while on vacation and for days out about it was a stand along and didn't burn. It also helped keep my complexion looking great. My only negative is really a preference thing, not a performance one...the fragrant is very strong.

    Upon receiving this product complimentary from Chickadvisor, I set out to use it starting that evening and have used it for about a week and a half now. The moisturizer comes in small plastic bottle with a pump that twists to lock - very handy feature if you plan on bringing this with you for travel. The scent is a fresh and uplifting, reminds me of green tea. I use about 4 pumps for my face, neck and chest and it applies easily, dries fast and matte and doesn't leave a greasy or oily feel behind. As for the brightening and smoothing, I'm not sure if I see any difference yet but it's not make me break out or anything either. I would recommend this for those looking for a nice fresh moisturizer.

    I was given this product to review for the Product Review Club. I must say, I was pleasantly surprised! The size of the container is nice (perfect for travelling). I love the fact that there's a pre-measured pump that provides you with just enough product . I also like that there is no fragrance, and that it's a very light consistency. I've been using it under my makeup and it doesn't make me look oily whatsoever, which is an issue with a lot of SPF products. I normally break out when I use SPF products but this didn't cause any breakouts. I only wish it was at least 20-30SPF, as I don't believe 15SPF is strong enough. I also wish that it was mineral based SPF as opposed to chemical SPF. Those are the only two reasons that may hold me back from repurchasing. But for those days where I don't really spend more than a few minutes outdoors, this would be great.

    I received a sample of this moisturizer to test. It's a nice light moisturizer. Absorbs quickly, leaves skin feeling very soft and smooth. Would be a good option for summer as it is not greasy and includes sunblock. Effectiveness in winter is only average as it is quite light and as a result I found myself re-applying partway through the day as it was very dry and cold when I was testing it.

    I was happy to receive this to try from chick advisor. Overall, I thought it was a great moisturizer. I have dry/combination skin and felt this moisturizer did a good job of hydrating my skin. I did notice a brightening effect after several days of use, especially in areas where I have hyperpigmentation. It has the typical Garnier scent, so if you're sensitive to scented products you might not like this. The only reason I would not repurchase this is that Garnier is not cruelty free.

    I got this product free through the Product Review Club. I like that the moisturizer comes with SPF which helps our face get protection from the sun, no need to add extra layer to the face. It works well with makeup too. This does not feel that you are wearing any moisturizer, which is a plus for me. It is a good moisturizer if you are under the sun a lot. The only thing is I did not feel this moisturizer is brightening.

    As part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club, I received the Garnier Clearly Brighter Brightening and Smoothing Moisturizer for testing. It comes in a pump bottle, so it is very convenient to apply. It has a light fresh scent, not too overpowering. It is quickly absorbed on my skin and my face feels refreshed. I am not sure about the brightening part, but my face does have a nice glow though. I like that it contains SPF 15. I would continue using this product and would recommend it.
