Garnier Sakura white - Review!

#pinkishglow
#Garnier 

Thailand is extremely good with it’s on- ground advertising  & promotional techniques. If a brand needs to be recognized, they will leave no stone unturned to make sure, it is recognized. They are amazing with marketing and can lure passer by’s very easily, specially someone like me, who is a shopaholic, moreover loves freebies, well anyone does, don’t we?

So a few weeks back, I spotted Garnier’s new flagship product range, called “Garnier Sakura White” a range including facial foam, day cream etc

Since I was in a rush, I still somehow managed to grab one of their Sakura day cream moisturizer “testers” which they were distributing as a freebie on the BTS (sky stations in Bangkok)
Comes in a flat- pouch sort of a tester tube.. Deriving its name from the National flower of Japan – Sakura, which are pink and white blossoming flowers. Something like these!

“The promotional/tagline reads – Pinkish radiance”
Now after reading that, who wouldn’t imagine themselves with glowing pink cheeks like PIKACHU and looking as cute, without dusting some blush-on

Packaging: well I got the tester here, but it has cute baby pink packaging and is embossed with pictures of Sakura flowers. It is definitely luring enough to drive the female fans.

Key ingredients:
Extracts from Sakura, which has anti-inflammatory properties helps maintain the skin from getting damaged.
Vitamin B3 - which is components for skin lightening, so helps in turn to reduce pigmentation
Vitamin CG: Protects skin from free radicals, oxidative stress and damage, often present in pollution

Here's how the SAKURA FLOWERS LOOK LIKE! 
Texture: You wanted to look pinkish white; you have to settle for a heavy texture.  The texture is heavy and creamy. It’s thick with matte finish, so even a little quantity is good enough.  It will not completely soak into your skin because of its thick nature, so it will be like a pinkish- white layer on your skin, settled in your skin but good enough to reflect that you are wearing something. It will hide your dark spots and blemishes. It’s enabled with SPF21, so wear it and move out.





Fragrance:  I haven’t really smelled the original Sakura, but sure smells pleasantly well like a flower itself. The flowery fragrance will uplift your mood for sure :D

Price:  The price over here in Thailand is 259 baht for a 50 ml container. Which is approximately              Rs. 506.89

Verdict: Justifies its promise of giving a pinkish – white radiant skin. Skin looks fairer and brighter and combats the dark spots well.


What I like :
Brighter skin
Has lasting properties
Gives a rosy pink look
Lovely flowery fragrance
Hides the dark spots and blemishes

What I don’t like:
Expensive
Heavy texture, feel the need to remove it by evening
Does not have soothing properties
Not very travel friendly
Rating : 3/5
