I was lucky enough to sample a few of these new MOisture Match Lotions from Garnier. I was really surprised with this one. It's a light based lotion, but not a runny lotion, just not as heavy as some of the others in the range. This one is also Oil-free, wchich is great if you suffer from combination skin, or have a problem T-Zone. It also has a 'Glow' built in, meaning there is a slight 'tanning' effect...and i do mean slight. Just enough to give you that 'Glow'. Also within this lotion is SPF 20, which for me it a great bonus as it's the only one with it in the range. So, for those sunny days, where your normal moisturisers spf is low then this one covers really well. I found it to be lovely to apply, my skin is of a dry/normal type, but recently i have noticed its more normal, with a need for oil-free on my nose area, So i was delighted that this one worked for me..Definitely a good buy, and a really nice citrus scent as well..

This moisturiser really needed a good rub to work it into the skin. It seemed to take ages for it to absorb too. The fragrance is lemony and is not unpleasant. My skin did feel moisturised, albeit it took a bit longer than usual.
I prefer the 'Wake Me Up' product in this range which matched my skin much better and gave great results.

Stays on the skin too long
Summary
This is the least appealing of the Moisture Match products that I've tried. The scent is very mildly citrus but not very attractive, absorption is okay but it feels like it stays on the skin after use and it isn't very effective. To be fair the point of this range is to more closely match your skin type so it just doesn't work for me but overall I was disappointed.

Love this! It's recommended for normal skin, but is so moisturizing that it's suitable for normal to dry skin types. Much less greasy than Garnier Moisture Match Start Afresh Cream (formulated for normal to dry skin).

The moisturiser itself is lovely and mild, eliminating dryness, however I found there was no illuminating effect whatsoever.
Tube is great to keep in your bad when you need it.
Lovely subtle scent, foundation goes on well over the top.
Absorbs really well.
