Putting Garnier Body Intensive 7days to the test

I received a promotion pack to put Garnier Body Intensive 7days to the test so I could feel and see the results for myself.







The blurb on the packet claims - "Throughout the day skin loses moisture which can leave it looking and feeling dry. Moisturising with Garnier Body Intensive 7days leaves skin hydrated, feeling smoother and softer."

It apparently comes in Mango, Shea Butter, Cocoa Butter and Aloe Vera. My sample was Shea Butter.

I'd had the pack a while and not found time (as you might expect with me) to give it a test. However, I was determined to start trying some of the creams I have stockpiled in the cupboard to help with my decluttering cause. Going away for Christmas seemed the ideal time. Seven days away from the normal 'routine' to make myself use the cream and spend some quality time with my poor neglected legs.

In order to see a tangible difference you have two skin readers provided in the pack. One for before and one for after. Using the cream fitted in perfectly with my holiday routine - swim, steam, shower and cream so I easily got in the habit of applying it. It smelt good and I started to look forward to that part of the day as a treat rather than a chore. I've always hated the feel of cream on my hands and used to always ask the OH to apply cream for me. You know that horrible, hard to wash off greasy feeling. With this cream I was not only able to do myself but took pleasure in doing so. My hands never once felt greasy. And as for the results, well I have to say I was most impressed. My skin did indeed look and feel better despite swimming most days.

Here are my before and after skin readers so you can judge for yourself.


Garnier Body Intensive 7days certainly gets the thumps up from me. I just need to get a bottle in so I can get my legs looking good ready for the Summer (if we ever get one).

Thank you Garnier :-)

PS I've checked MySupermarket and it looks like Superdrug have an offer on at the moment if you want to give it a test yourselves.
