    Is this product a sunscreen? Is it a moisturizing lotion? Is it a anti aging treatment? It is all those and more combined into one product that actually DOES what it claims!!

    From the Garnier Website "Get visibly brighter, polished looking skin in just one week" Isthis true?

    Well after testing the product for two weeks, Iam here to say that YES YES YES indeed it is true!!

    This silky, non greasy lotion absorbs into the skin effortlessly and leaves it feeling supple and hydrated without it feeling heavy or oily.

    The ingredients, Vitamin C, E and LHA (mild exfoliant) work together to deliver more radiant,even toned than ever before!! The fact that it contains sunscreen is a bonus and much appreciated.

    My skin looks and feels so much more youthful.Its supple and has a glow that I have been complimented on many times while using this lotion.

    And its SO AFFORDABLE!!! NO need to spenf $$$$ on other products when Garnier delivers with their Clearly Brighter Lotion.

    Thanks to Garnier and Chickadvisor for giving me the chance to test out a great product.

    I received this product for free to test as a member of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. This product actually does what it says it will do! Being in my 40's, I'd developed some age spots, and I also had a few Spider Nevi on my face since I was 11 years old (so over 30 years). I don't want to say this is a miracle product, because your mileage may vary, but this is the first product that has removed these from my face. I still am in shock, because my doctor told me the spider nevi could only be removed by laser, but they aren't there anymore! As far as being a moisturizer, it is very light, so good for everyday use. I would like to see a higher SPF and a lower price, but I am a bit of a cheapskate so take that with a grain of salt lol! Otherwise, really amazing product!

    I received this from Chickadvisor for review purposes. So I started using this a day after I received it and I have to say that I really LOVE it. I have very dry skin in the winter and I have been looking for something that will moisturize my skin and not make me break out. I use this and on day one I felt a difference. I love how it applies nicely and doesn't leave my skin greasy. I also love the smell of this moisturizer. I plan on using this for the next weeks. It says it will help clear and brighten your skin so I really want to see if this will be the case for me.

    I have dry and sensitive skin and i am very impressed with how my skin feels like after using it for only 1 week. The texture of the moisturizer is light but rich enough to moisturize my very dry skin, feel so smooth and i found my brown spots on my cheek starts fading and my laugh lines seem less obvious.

    The lines on my forehead are less obvious as well. This moisturizer works better than the department store high end brand i have used but at a fraction of the price i paid.

    This moisturizer will be a staple in my daily routine from now on, i am in love with it.

    I've only been using this moisturizer for a week, and I can already see a difference! It is so nice to have a product that not only improves the quality of your skin by brightening, but also protects with SPF. It's a winner!

    Lovely scent! Skin feels amazing and is certainly not as dull with continued use. Not sure if it is helping my dark spots, but the first week has been promising. Wonderful that it has SPF in it...one less step in the morning. Fantastic product.

    I like that it was not greasy and it really did give my face that vibrant brighter look. One squirt was just enough for my face with the added bonus of spf 15. Only started using it a week ago so will review again in a few weeks.

    I received this product as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.

    I have been using this moisturizer for about a week now,and like it very much. It absorbs quickly ,and you can apply makeup shortly after. it feels so nice on my face. It does not make my face greasy like many other moisturizers do. It has a nice light scent to it.
    I have found my face has become a lot smoother after using it for a short period of time,.and a bit brighter.I will continue to use it to get the full effect.

    I recommend it and would buy it again if it was a reasonable price.

    I am reviewing this product as a member of the ChickAdvisor review club. As a 40+ woman going through menopause, I have learned to appreciate the importance of moisturizing every day. I have been using the same oil-free daily moisturizer for years, and was hesitant about trying another as my face tends to react easily to different products. HOWEVER, I was pleasantly surprised by this product. It goes on smoothly and absorbs quite nicely into the face without leaving a trace(or too much shine). I put my concealer under my eyes before the moisturizer has completely absorbed and it makes a nice, flawless blend. My face does not feel oily after use, or when I start to perspire(hot flashes), which is nice because menopause is tough enough without having a greasy feeling face and break-out spots. I didnt really notice if it made my skin brighter, but I have had people tell me I look more 'radiant' or more well-rested...so I can only assume that is what it is from as I havent been doing anything else new to my face. I make sure to tell them I have been using a new moisturizer and telling them what it is so they can try it as well.

    I received this product as part of the Product review club.

    I have been using the product since I received it four days ago. I am not usually a fan of SPF face moisturizers, and although I know I should use them everyday, I must admit that I haven't been the last few months unless I knew I would specifically be spending time outside. This product is very different then the others. I find others to be slightly greasy with a heavy scent. Clearly Brighter has a light texture when dispensed (and I have no issue with the dispenser - it works delivering the same amount to my fingertips every time and so far no clogs or problems). Only a small amount is needed, so it looks like the provided bottle will last for awhile.

    It glides on smoothly, with only a light scent (which seems very refreshing in itself - not quite mint, not quite citrus, but energizing). To my surprise, it absorbed very quickly, and left my skin feeling "tight". Within the first two days of using it, my skin feels tighter and smoother. I have not noticed the physical effects looking in the mirror yet, but it's only been four days. The feeling, however, is immediate and would be worth every penny to me just for that. This morning is the first time I have worn make-up over the moisturizer, and it applied perfectly over it, with no changes to the look or texture of my regular "routine".

    I am very impressed with this product, and look forward to see the results going further as I continue to use it.

    Thanks for the opportunity to try it - I think I've discovered a new favorite I may not have otherwise!

    Update - April 07/16

    I've been using this product faithfully since I received as part of the Product Review Club, and I will be purchasing it again for myself when this bottle runs out. It's a great daily face moisturizer, light in texture and light in scent, applies easily without a greasy feeling. It does react badly with my eyes if I happen to misjudge and get it too close to my eyes, but that is my fault as it not meant to come into contact with the eye area. I may switch to something with a stronger SPF in as we approach the summer months when I will be spending more time outside, but I will continue to use this in the evening as I like the way my skin feels from it.
