Garnier Moisture Rescue Refreshing Gel

I'm never sure about any kind of gel moisturizer.  In my past experience, I've just never liked them.  But I tried to go into this product with an open mind.

Well, despite my trying to be positive, I didn't like it.  The gel part, to begin with, felt sticky going on, and it seems to take awhile soak in/dry.  It did smell good, though, so that's a positive.  But after getting past the 'gel' part of it,I pushed on through the rest of the day to see if the 24-hour moisture was really there.  I applied the rest of my make-up, as usual, in order to truly test it in 'real' conditions.

My skin is not very dry to begin with, luckily.  It can get dry in the winter, but we're not there yet.  So I was a little disappointed when my skin seems a little dry and tight about halfway through the day.  It felt more like a dried gel then it did a moisturizer.

I can see where this might be better for someone who has slightly more oily skin (or maybe my skin is drier than I thought).  But for me at this point in my skin's life, it's a no-go.  I'll stick with my lotions.
