Feeling organic: Garnier Bio Organic skincare line

You may have seen Garnier’s newest organic skincare line pop up all over your Instagram feeds lately.

The latest innovation from the skincare and hair brand is their Bio Organic line, a lineup of products that have organic ingredients certified by Ecocert Greenlife, according to COSMOS standard. These standards are made up by a number of factors, including environmentally friendly production and processing processes respecting human health; the development of the concept of green chemicals; the responsible use of natural resources; the respect of biodiversity; the absence of petrochemical ingredients such as parabens, phenoxyethanol, perfumes, and synthetic colorants; the absence of GMO; and recyclable packaging.

Their Bio Organic line is made up of 10 skincare products, everything from a micellar solution to a rescue balm, a moisturizer, eye cream, and more. All the products are vegan, dermatologically tested, suitable for sensitive skin, free of parabens, and come in 100 per cent recyclable cardboard packaging.

Garnier Bio product round up

Garnier was kind enough to send me an assortment of items from the new line up, and if you are interested in picking up a few different products to try out, then keep reading..

Garnier Bio Organic Lavandin Smooth & Glow Facial Oil

Looking for some extra hydration? Then give their facial oil a shot.

The Lavandin Smooth & Glow Facial Oil (C$24.99) is a non-greasy oil that helps to regenerate hydration to leave skin feeling softer, smoother, and more radiant. It is formulated with organic lavandin essential oil, which is also organically produced and fairly traded, as well as organic argan oil.

Apply this via the dropper to your skin after your toner and before your moisturizer to help boost your other skincare products. It’s suitable for all skin types, including sensitive ones. Note, it does have a slight scent to it, but it’s of natural origin, so it shouldn’t affect those who have scent allergies are or are sensitive to smells.

Garnier Bio Organic Argan Multi-Use Rescue Balm

For the body, treat extra-dry skin with their Organic Argan Multi-Use Rescue Balm (C$24.99), which helps dry skin feel smooth and nourished.

This rescue balm, which you can use for pretty much any body part (I recommend the hands and feet), is formulated with organic, sustainably sourced argan oil, organic shea butter, and Vitamin E to help heal worn-out dry skin.  This balm is perfect for winter months and since the bottle is on the smaller side, it makes it great for travel or to keep in your bag when on the go.  Since it’s a balm, it does have a slight sticky feel to it, but I found it absorbs nicely into the skin, so the feeling doesn’t last for too long.

Garnier Bio moisturizer

Garnier Bio Organic Lavandin Anti-Age Day Care

Looking for a good anti-aging moisturizer that’s also organic? Then you’ve come to the right place!

Garnier’s Organic Lavandin Anti-Age Day Care moisturizer (C$24.99) is perfect for all skin types and is formulated with organic lavandin grown in France, as well as organic argan oil and vitamin E to provide 24 hours of regenerating hydration.

This moisturizer helps against lines and wrinkles and absorbs nicely into the skin. It does have a pleasant lavender scent which is derived naturally from the ingredients in the product.

Garnier Bio Organic Cornflower Micellar Water

You guys know I love my micellar waters, so if you’re like me but looking for an organic version, then take a look at the Garnier Bio Organic Cornflower Micellar Water (C$12.99).

This micellar water easily removes makeup and cleanses the skin, leaving it prepped for the rest of your skincare routine. It includes selected herbs and their essential oils, leaving it gentle to use on your skin.  Unlike other brands’ micellar waters, this one is safe for every skin type, even sensitive ones.

Garnier Bio Organic Lavandin Anti-Age Eye Care

Finally, for the delicate eye area, take a look at their Lavandin Anti-Age Eye Care (C$24.99), which is an eye cream that is enriched with organic argan oil and vitamin E to replenish skin with moisture and to regenerate smoothness and brighten the undereye area.

I highly recommend using an eye cream morning and night and I think this is a great option if you’re looking for a clean beauty alternative. This eye cream helps to target anti-aging around the eyes, as well as puffiness and dark circles. It also absorbs nicely and easily into the skin, making it perfect as a prep for your makeup in the morning or to protect the delicate eye area while you sleep at night. I also love how it comes as a squeeze tube, making it more sanitary, as well as easier to dispense the proper amount of product.

Garnier also has a facial mist, a purifying gel wash, a toner, a balancing moisturizer, and a nourishing moisturizer in its Bio Organic line up.  This is the second drugstore beauty brand that I’ve chatted about this week (CoverGirl being the first) coming out with a vegan line. Clean beauty has definitely been making strives in the past few years and people are becoming more conscious in not only what is in their skincare and makeup, but also how the industry has been affecting the world in general.

Kudos Garnier on this incredible new line up and I can’t wait to see what other innovations you have coming down the pipe.
