REVIEW: Garnier Light Complete Multi Action Whitening Cream
6:41:00 AMI've been searching good moisturizer with affordable price to be bought by a student like me. So I just bought a mini pack version (7 ml) of Garnier Light Complete Multi Action Whitening Cream to know if it is suitable for me or not.
Tada! There it is. This product comes in cute tumbler bottle in the plastic.
According to its description, let me translate into English.
"Warm and dump air in Indonesia causes excessive oil production. It causes blemishes on your face and dullness. These problems can make your face looking dull.
NEW INNOVATION! Moisturizer Garnier Light Complete Multi Action Whitening Cream are made specially for Indonesian women. Its formula is not only to brightens skin, but also helps reduces excess sebum. Besides that, its formula helps reduces appearance of dullness, acne marks and dark spots."
OIL CONTROL FORMULA
Its texture is light weight and easily absorbed. Skin feels comfortable and looks shine-free.
Unboxing time! It comes with cute tumbler bottle :)
It has rather big tube that's easy to be contaminated :/
It has white color and creamy. Also, it has soft and nice scent of lemon tea.
After rubbing it, it is absorbed quickly and it whitens my skin temporarily
Results:
- At first, my skin feels smooth and fairer :)
- Acne marks and dark spots fades away a little :)
- After 4 hrs usage, my skin feels sticky when I touch. Furthermore, excessive oil production starts to appear.
Actually I apply much amount of it so that my skin feels sticky after 4 hrs usage. So I recommend to apply only small amount of it (M&M candy sized).
UPDATES:
UPDATES:
- When I take small amount, my skin gets smoother in a long time without feeling sticky. Also, the oil control is far better if I take it small. So that was my fault of taking it much :p
- Causes BREAKOUTS! :(
Comparison of excessive oil production between using this moisturizer than nothing:
Without usage (cleanse + tone)
With usage (cleanse +tone +moisturize)
(sorry if you find it disgusting lol)
According to these pictures above, do these look the same? -___-
TIPS: for you who have very oily skin, take a thin layer of it to your skin so that you won't find it sticky and greasy after application.

In conclusion,
Pros:
- Cheap and suitable for starter (IDR 3.900,- on mini market).
- Cute package.
- Nice scent.
- Whitens my skin at first impression.
- Gives smooth complexion if I take it in small amount.
- Fades away acne marks and dark spots a little.
- Great oil control if I take thin layer of it.
Cons:
- Big tube.
- Contains fragrance.
- Doesn't have SPF.
- Creamy texture that is actually suitable for normal to dry skin(Why don't Garnier use gel-based moisturizer instead?)
- Excess sebum starts to appear after 4 hrs usage (yeah, cos I took it much hehe)
- Look the same as if I don't use any moisturizer (again, cos it was my fault taking it too much).
- causes breakouts.
Will I repurchase? BIG NO! I got breakouts cause of this product. I will give the rest of it to my maid, hehe.
You might like it if you:

That's all girls. If you have experienced it or need consultation, don't hesitate to send comment below :)
