  1. Yup, after trying mask at last, have to say: I appreciate Garnier having hair masks in big tubs! My fur needs lots of product, and this is more sustainable. Bulk tubs next =D

  2. I already use the Garnier Hair Food and absolutely love it. It's so versatile, I buy 1 product that I can use as a conditioner, a leave-in or a treatment and it's great value for money. I'm going to have a look for the Garnier skin range now, as I already use their Micellar Water. Love the article and Garnier!

  3. Lucky me – I tried all of them and they were fantastic!! The quality and results speak for themselves. Read my reviews and try your favourite products for yourself.
    thank you BH xx
