I love multi-purpose products. For starter they do more than one thing and if you are someone who travels a lot you will appreciate getting more out of something. I have used a couple of products in more ways than one and some have found a special place in my collection like Vichy Normaderm 3 in 1. The latest addition to my multi-purpose product collection is Garnier White Complete 3 in 1 Fairness Facial.
The product claims to “Use in 3 ways to get flawless fairness.
- Wash: Helps deep clean and eliminate impurities. Use daily.
- Scrub: Removes dark cells and visibly reduces imperfections. Use 2 to 3 times a week.
- Mask: Gives an even skin tone to reveal a fairer glow. Use once a week.”

My Experience with Garnier White Complete 3 in 1 Fairness Facial
Let me start the review by saying that I am not into fairness products, but I do like products that help even my truly unruly uneven skin tone and help brighten (aka remove tan) my face. Garnier White Complete 3 in 1 Fairness Facial comes in an easy to use squeeze tube with a whitish gritty paste inside. The product has a slight coarse texture which I find works best as a scrub. The product can be used as a face wash, scrub and a mask.
As a face wash: Since the product has a slightly coarse texture you need to use a very gentle hand while using this as a face wash. It is best to avoid going over the eye area so that you don’t end up damaging the delete skin underneath your eyes. I ensure that my skin is fairly decent without or with limited breakouts when I use this. Please note that if you are prone to breakouts this product may be rather harsh on your skin.
As a scrub: I totally love using Garnier White Complete 3 in 1 Fairness Facial as a scrub. It manages to remove any gunk left behind and also helps clear blackheads. My oily skin tends to trap oil and dirt easily which emerge on my skin as pesky blackheads. I was more than happy to see the blackheads disappearing with regular use.
As a face mask: Whenever I use Garnier White Complete 3 in 1 Fairness Facial as a face mask, I also end up using it as a scrub. I let the paste sit on my face till it dries, then I pat it with a little water and start working it as a scrub. After washing my skin feels soft, bright and tight. It feels amazing to use and I love the end results. If you have dry skin it is best to top this up with a good moisturizer.
Like all products if there is one thing I don’t fancy so much is that the smell is a little strong. The fragrance isn’t unpleasant, but strong. If you don’t have a sensitive nose, you shouldn’t have any issues with the smell at all. Overall this is a great product and I love using it. Before I forget in case you are wondering what the difference between Garnier White Complete 3 in 1 Fairness Facial and Vichy Normaderm 3 in 1 is that Vichy seems to work better when my skin has breakouts and is better on sensitive acne prone skin.
The Good
- Great multipurpose product
- Spill proof packaging making it great for travel
- Helps keep blackheads at bay
- Skin feels bright after every use
- Gives skin a soft plumped feeling

- Removes dirt and zaps oil

The Bad
- Some may find it a little harsh to use as a face wash everyday
- Fragrance can be a little off-putting
- Dry skinned beauties may find this extra drying
- Can be harsh for those with active acne or sensitive skin
- Glow doesn’t last long
Overall verdict: 4 / 5
Price: Rs. 99/- for 50 gms

Swathi recently posted…Miss Claire Matte Lip Cream 10 and 01 : Review, swatch, LOTD
Thanks Swathi. I totally love this as a scrub. Gets all that clogged nastiness outside and leaves the skin bright.
Such a multipurpose product! I would use this as face scrub!
Mariyam recently posted…Luke Mugwort Cleansing Nose Strip : Review
Do give it a try Mariyam. 🙂
This product is really nice for oily skin and may work for me too.. about the glow any product doesn’t give long lasting results isn’t it? Lol
Thanks for the review.
Natasha Bhatt recently posted…Oh Cute Box for May 2016 – Unboxing & my thoughts!
Rightly put Natasha. I don’t think there is any product that gives long lasting brightening effect.
In my vanity, I do have few multi-purpose products and I adore them. Why? because they save so much time 🙂 😀 Great review Sangeeta.
Anamika( NBAM) recently posted…Versatile Blogger Award // Happy Shappy!
What are your favourite multipurpose products Anamika? I’d love to try out some more.
Sangeeta this is such a multi purpose product, never tried any product like this which can be used as a face wash, a scrub and a face pack. Sounds interesting and would love to try it.. Nicely reviewed Sangeeta?
Yamini recently posted…BH Cosmetics Carli Bybel Eyeshadow and Highlighter Palette Review
It is totally amazing Yamini. I do prefer Vichy more though. Do give it a try, you’ll be quite impressed with the results.
Sounds like a good product. I would like to try it. But can’t use on daily basis coz my skin is dry.
Yeah. It’ll be rather drying to use everyday.
I somehow do not like the idea of 3 in 1 product.. I tried Nivea one which wasn’t a great pick.. and I guess this works similar.. 🙂
Ritam Chandra recently posted…New Loreal Infallible Silkissime Eyeliner : Plum,Black Review,Swatches,EOTD
I haven’t tried the Nivea one so I can’t comment. But this one from Garnier is really nice. I love the one from Vichy even more.
Great review 🙂
Thanks Ritu 🙂
I’ve tried this and it does a great job of unclogging the pores and feels bright and fresh after-wash! Great review dear 🙂

Wow, I had the same experience. And thank you so much Ragini 🙂
I purchased their so called white facewash which I bought for a friend and she eventually forgot to use. Even that facewash is a bit harsh for everyday use. Makes my oily skin dry and flaky 🙁 Garnier products are a bit too harsh I think 😀
Sonali recently posted…My 5th Liebster Award
Their products do need a real gentle hand. Otherwise it is very easy to go overboard.
WOW….Sounds like a great product… It’s on my list of products to buy now ?
kiran Singh recently posted…Aloe Veda Aloe Calamine Soothing Lotion Review
You can even consider the Vichy one. Yes it is a little bit more expensive but I find it gentler on the skin. http://amzn.to/24uwDnU
I have used this product and found it really good!! Nice review 🙂

I would skip this as I have sensitive skin. Nicely reviewed Sangeeta 🙂

Thanks Shwetali. It is very easy to go overboard with this product. If you have super sensitive skin you could easily irritate it.
such a multipurpose product, great for deep cleansing. Nice review dear 🙂 Would love to try it out 🙂

Hi5 Swati 🙂
Looks like a multipurpose product but for everyday use it might be too harsh for gentle skin. I love reading your posts. They are all reviewed nicely and in detail. Thanks Sangeeta:)
https://thebeautydrive.wordpress.com/2016/06/04/bath-body-works-paris-amour-body-cream/
Thank you. I wouldn’t recommend it so much for everyday. Like you said it’ll feel harsh for daily use.
Nice review dear..Worth a try..specially as a mask ?
Himanshi recently posted…Lace For Summer : Lookbook | OOTD
Yup definitely. It works quite wonderfully as a mask and perfect for carrying in your holiday bag.
I love multipurpose products too and have tried like this one from za, I have to skip this one due to my dry skin
Preethy Paul recently posted…The Body Shop Shea Body Butter Review
I’ve just finished this one. Would love to give the one from Za a try. Is it good?
I liked the za one more as a face mask and scrub, due to my sensitive skin could not use it daily as face wash, used it twice a week
Preethy@Prettykooll recently posted…Ananda Aloe Gel and Rose Distillate Hydrating Mask Review
Most of these 3-in-1 products do rather seem harsh to be used everyday.
I have used this one…overall its a good product…xoxo, neha

No not yet, i have tried the Neem tulsi Face Wash and i like it,
Khushi@NotOnlyMakeup recently posted…Coloressence Intense Long Wear Liquid Lip Color Flirty Fuchsia : Review, Price, LOTD and Buy Online
I haven’t tried that variant. Is their neem-tulsi face wash good?
I’ve only used Garnier Pure Active 3in1 face wash and I loved it! It wasn’t too drying for my dry skin too and I should really repurchase. I’ll look out for this too, I like that it brightens the skin.
Shireen L. Platt recently posted…Have A Nice Day with HAND Cosmetics
It brightens the skin nicely, though the results don’t last too long.
This will be great for me while travelling 🙂
Oh definitely. I always carry at least one multi-purpose product when I travel.
Usually Garnier product’s smell is kind of strong. Great review Sangeeta.
crazyforcosmetics recently posted…Budget Shopping in Singapore – Vol 1 – Bugis Market
Surprisingly my sensitive nose was okay with the smell. But yes it is a little on the strong side.
it sounds very good. we have garnier but not this in the states.
Ah okay. The Garnier hair care range available in the US is quite a lot.
I can definitely see how it would come in handy while traveling. Sounds like a nice 3 in 1 product. Probably not for every day use though, but it does sound nice. 🙂
Lisa @ Midwest Glam recently posted…It Cosmetics Sunshine in a Compact Bronzer in Warmth
It is a little harsh for everyday use, but a great travel companion.
Nice review. Worth a try.
Sudhaa recently posted…A comfortable and Luxurious Stay at Anantara Riverside Bangkok Resort

I am using Garnier Blackhead uprooting scrub these days!! I am quite impressed with garnier Skincare overall. 3 in 1 product are quite handy, I have used Nivea one before. Thanks for sharing!!

Pratima recently posted…Outfit: Simple and Chic (Chiffon Shirt)
Wouldn’t really say the smell is amazing, but the product is totally impressive.
This breaks out my skin.
Ouch that’s bad. MyI skin tends to be sensitive to a lot of products, but thankfully it didn’t breakout with this product.
Nice review Sangeeta, I have tried this one some time back. I really like it as a scrub but as a mask Im not sure. BuT I do like the soothing sensation we get once the mask is on 🙂
It works quite well as a mask as well. Do give it a try the next time you use it.
I have used this too. It was good 🙂
perkymegs recently posted…Aishwarya Rai inspired makeup tutorial | Bollywood makeup (Video)
True Megha. It is a totally amazing multi-purpose product.
I like multi purpose products..I want to try it 😀
Do give it a try. It’s perfect for those who want more out of a product.
I have a normal/dry skin but I am itching to try this. It sounds really good and I was hunting for something that would really keep my blackheads at bay. Personally, I am not a big fan of Garnier products, they have always left me a bit disappointed. I use Ponds products a lot but they even do not help when it comes to blackheads. Thanks for sharing this and posting a wonderful review. 🙂
Chaste & Beautiful
If you skin tends to get dry easily this could rather end up drying it further. But it is really good with keeping blackheads at bay. I would suggest getting a smaller pack and seeing it fairs on your skin and using it once a week and then maybe increasing to twice.
I think I am going to try it, looks like a product that can help when you are in hurry. Nice honest review. 🙂
Alisha recently posted…Mango Sweet Lime Pops
Thanks Alisha. This product definitely helps brighten and clear skin quite well.
seems like a dupe for vichy 3 in 1 face wash…
Gressa recently posted…Just herbs Kumuda – Indian White Waterlily Silicone Free Conditioner : Review
It is a sort of dupe. But I love the Vichy one just because it seems to work better on my gentle skin.
Never really a fan of garnier facewashes :/ however this sounds promising. will try it out once i am back in india!
Najah recently posted…Skin Care Review: Votre Face Serum

Just remember to use a gentle hand with this as to not irritate your skin in anyway.
Nice review Sangeeta! I have acne prone skin, so can’t use this but I have a face wash from similar range and it has brightened my skin over time. This range is definitely worth the price.
