    I received this product for review from the Chick Advisor product review club

    I received this product on 02/15/16 and intend to write another review after extended use. I absolutely LOVE this product. I wish the bottle was bigger, but a little goes a long way. It made my face look and feel smooth and moisturized instantly. I never really noticed a 'anti-fatigue' effect but it's a great product. I haven't had any negative issues with it, very gentle on any skin type. Super excited I got to be part of this review because I wouldn't have tried it completely on my own dime.

    Only con to this product is the retail value (~$25)

    Now to try the 'Clearly Brighter'.

    I received this product as part of the Product Testing Club.

    I also received the Micellar Water and, although I was initially more excited about that product, find this one the better product. While I am not sure if I look more awake or refreshed (I just returned to work after mat leave and have a 3 1/2 year old and 7 month old. . . I don't know if anything can make me look truly refreshed, lol!), it is a nice, lightweight moisturizer. I have combination skin which can suffer from hormonal breakouts so, while moisturizing is important to me, I am a little picky about the products I use.

    On the positive side, this product has a lovely pump dispenser and, while it isn't a huge bottle, a little goes a long way. The moisturizer is lightweight, absorbs quickly and has very little (if any) scent. I find it is excellent for daytime use and have no problem applying makeup over top (some moisturizers are too greasy for me to do this). I also find the price reasonable for this type of product. Probably my favourite thing is the gel texture - it doesn't feel like I'm slathering a heavy, creamy moisturizer over my face, which is perfect for oily or combo skin types. This also has very few triggers according to CosDNA (dimethicone is a level 1 acne trigger, and tocopherol is a level 2 acne trigger and a level 2 potential irritant). I had no irritation or breakouts while using this product.

    On the downside, I didn't feel that this did the job any better than some of my other moisturizers. Yes, it moisturized. But it didn't seem to wake up my skin as promised (as I mentioned, I'm not sure if any product can do that for me at this point in my life). It also contains alcohol which isn't generally something I like to see in a moisturizer - not a deal-breaker, but the ingredients list doesn't wow me.

    Ultimately, this is an average moisturizer. It definitely does its job and I appreciate how lightweight it is. I don't feel like I'm smothering my skin when I use this product. At this price point, this is a good choice for those with oily or combo skin. I wouldn't recommend it if you have drier skin (this is not a moisture bomb) or if you prefer skincare without alcohols.

    I got this for free through the Product Review Club (which also came with the Garnier SkinActive Micellar water, blueberry jam tea, and a cup that says 'Wake Up Be Awesome Repeat')

    Overall, I do really like this product ! There's not a lot of moisturizers I feel comfortable wearing under my make up, but I had no problem with this one. It's light, gel-like, and absorbs very quickly into the skin. Not too sure about the claim that it'll transform your skin in one day, but this definitely had no negative side effects on me. Will continue to use this as my morning moisturizer !!

    I received this product to try, and I must say like it. I dont usually use gel moisturizes. It makes my face feel so nice and silky smooth. The smell is nice and not overpowering. The only thing I am not a fan of is that during the day I find my face feeling oily. This usually doesn't happen when I use cream moisturizers. Overall though I think it is a good product but I probably will not be buying it again.

    I noticed from the first use a deep hydration and a rested-looking skin and he definitely smoothes out my fine lines. After one use, it reducing signs of fatigue for a healthy, rested look. My skin appears fresh and awakened. After one week, he improves signs of fatigue and re-activates my skin radiance for a healthy glow.I really love wild berry antioxidant complex too. I definitely recommend this product to everyone and it is certain that I will buy this product again

    I received this product for review from the Chick Advisor product review club.
    I really, really like this product! It feels amazing on my skin, it's super easy to apply, you don't need much and it spreads over your entire face and neck. So this bottle should last me a while.
    I like the subtle scent, its very nice and smells of clean to me.
    The gel seems to sink right into my skin without a lot of rubbing, which is good, because rubbing is not good for your skin.
    I did notice I didn't look quite as tired and stressed as I normally do, so it does what it says it will do.
    It just feels high end to me, very impressed!

    I have now been using this for a while now, and I must say I am still impressed. My skin feels and looks softer, I have already purchased this to make sure I don't run out when this one is gone!

    I was pleasantly surprised by this moisturizer, I don't have big issues with my skin so what i look for in a moisturizer is to protect my skin from getting dry from makeup, which i use on a daily basis. On that note, it blends really well with my foundation and its not peeling off or anything. Also like the texture and the scent.

    I absolutely LOVE this product!!! It goes on nicely, smooth and feels like you are actually applying water to your face. It's different than other products I have used in that the others are more of a cream and this one is much lighter in texture and as you rub it over your face the gel seems to magically turn into a water felling application. I find that it absorbs very well and makes my face feel so much smoother after using it. My face stayed hydrated all day which is definitely important and in this cold weather that was something great to see. My face normally will dry out mid-day and look flaky a bit but with this product not once did that happen. It does not have any strong smell, very light in scent and does not linger after you rub it in.You don't need a lot of this either, it spreads easily so it will definitely be worth the purchase because it will go further than most other thicker creams. Some may find the price a little too much for a face cream but it is definitely worth it. It really does do as it says and keeps your face hydrated all day. I would recommend it to anyone who has dry skin and definitely a great product for winter time when the weather is so harsh on our skin. I will definitely buy this product and keep using it. I think it hydrates the skin so well that it kind of protects it from that cold weather.Its not a greasy feeling to it at all.It's a perfect product and I noticed improvements the first day. Normally with my other products it takes time, like a week or two to notice any bit of any difference and even then it's not as good as this products results.

    I received my free products from Chick Advisor and was pleased to find a couple of extras in the box from David's Tea. The box contained the SkinActive micellar cleanser as well so I started using both products that day.Unfortunately I only has a week to try it before I had to post my review but I think the pictures show that there is some difference in just a week.

    My skin is hydrated, something I have always had issues with, so my wrinkles are less evident. (i'm 46 and hating them!). My pores seem to be smaller and less noticeable and my skin is super soft. The pump dispenser gives just the right amount for face and neck and it smells nice too. It absorbs quickly and is not greasy.

    The price is reasonable at $24.00 considering I got the same or better results as when I was using other brands that cost twice as much! I will keep using it and see what how much better my skin can get! Thanks Chick Advisor and Garnier!
