Garnier - pickysana review for Hyaluronic Aloe Jelly

[Reviewing for you: Garnier Aloe Jelly] This gel promises to reduce signs of fatigue, visibly brightening one’s complexion as well as leaving skin plump and moist.✨ [Key ingredients] • aloe leaf juice • grapefruit water • hyaluronic acid 📍contains salicylic acid which works as a chemical exfoliator, good for acne prone skin (one of the last ingredients on the inci) [Packaging & Texture] - glass jar, 50 ml ~4€ - totally thick clear gel, no scent 🌱vegan formula 🌱96% ingredients of natural origin 🌱 soothing and cooling effects 🌱 affordable and accessible [My opinion] When I started using it in summer I honestly didn’t like the gel because it felt a bit sticky right after application. It needs some time to fully absorb, leaving a dewy finish. Made my skin look indeed fresh. Other than that the gel provides great hydration which is rather short lasting. This might be the case since my cheeks tend to be dry and need more hydration. But for my t-zone it is perfectly enough. Personally I found it good enough for summer. I also like how it contains soothing ingredients and salicylic acid which is great for oily and combo skin. Important to mention is that when I wanted to apply makeup or generally use sunscreen, I needed to wait some time for it to absorb, because if I didn’t, the sunscreen would mix up with the gel remainings and it would simply feel meh. The same with makeup. Needed to wait like maybe 10-15 min. to go on. But I speeded the process a bit by tapping it into skin slightly. Over all it is a good product to maintain hydration for the day. Great affordable choice which suits most skin types.
