Garnier BB Cream - Sensitive Review - Medium

Normally I have quite dry skin, and I suffer from redness, especially in the mornings. When I got offered this trial, I thought why not! The only BB cream I had used in the past was a Maybelline one which was very watery and runny so it had kind of put me off. The Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector Cream was thick and creamy but it felt very lightweight.

The instructions on the packet is to use it like a moisturiser, but I didn't apply that much. I applied it more like a foundation but very sparingly. Even with a small amount, it covered up my redness and evened out my skin tone. With more on, it would give you a darker foundation look. I finished it off with some powder, and it looked just like a foundation.

The cream smells quite nice, but isn't something that hangs around all day I found - especially with powder over the top. The cream offers full coverage even when used sparingly, and the finish is matte and smooth. It really does even out your skin tone and make your whole face the same colour. It also lasts all day and looks great, doesn't wear off quickly.

The price is great, if you use as much as I did - 50ml would last ages. It looks great in the package and the size is quite generous for the price, I thought.

I would definitely recommend it to a friend :)

I'm not much of a make up person, but I really liked this product. easy to put on. it covers redness and evens out my skin tone. normally after wearing make up I get break outs and my skin is dry, but after using this for a week I haven't had any of that. I wear this , mascara and lip gloss every day, a nice natural look for me.

I love this stuff. I use it daily instead of foundation. I have a combinition of oily/dry skin so I found I have to put a bit of powder over it so I don't shine around my nose. Good coverage if your not in to heavy make up. Overall fantatsic product! Have recommended to a few people now!

I found this product great, although I am having some problems with my skin at present so am not sure if I broke out due to the product or just due to the skin problems. It went on very smoothly and I have very pale skin which it blended into very nicely. All and all a good and very handy product especially for mums on the run who just want a little coverage and to blur any signs of a long night with the baby the night before :)

I have tried other BB creams before and found them to be very oily looking, not long wearing and they didnt work well with other makeup items. However, this BB cream has changed my views about using a BB cream. It has a nice coverage, without feeling sticky or oily like other BB creams i have used. It works well with other products such as concealers and powders. It promises to "reduce redness, soothe, hydrate, correct blemishes, even skin tone, illuminate complexion and provide UV protection". I felt that this product did what it promised and very well. My skin feels so smooth and my annoying spots have cleared up. I also suffer from really red skin and it has helped reduce my redness dramatically and it evened my skintone dramatically. I had no idea that a make up product could be so good for your skin! Highly reccomend it.

Generally I have very oily skin but am also very sensitive so can have breakouts or rashes in relation to makeup quite quickly however that never happened with this cream. It was great for my sensitive skin and didn't cause any breakouts. I used it as a foundation and I found it light and easy to apply with a smooth even consistency. It has a pleasent light fragrance, it smells like spring flowers but very subtly. It has a full matte like co stage but isn't thick and uncomfortable like other foundations I have previously used and was great cause it lasted all day even in the rain. I am very big on budgeting so would normally only get my makeup at factory sales etc. And don't generally spend more than $10 on a specific product however I do think it's worth the price in comparison to similar products. The packaging was very appealing as I found it attracted me somewhat to the product and the actual tube itself was great as it was easy to squeeze out the desired amount without it squirting everywhere. It did exactly as it claimed, it gave me a natural looking completion with a slight radiating shimmer and covered up even the dark circles under my eyes that I normally battle with. I would highly recommend this product and infact I already have.

I was excited to try this product. I found it gave quite good coverage except for blemishes but i just touched them up with my foundation.Its a little shiny for me so had to use a powder after it. It didn't react to my skin which was great and kept my skin hydrated for me all day even with the powder so I was happy. Did find it messy to use as i normally use a foundation brush.

I have never used this before so I was so keen to try it. It gave me wonderful coverage, I wore it to the gym (to mimic a hot sweaty day) it was great. I usually feel my foundation when I sweat but this BB cream was as light as air. I also tried it under normal foundation as a primer and my foundation went on smoother than before. I will be definitely be buying this from now on.

I was a bit cautious about trying this product as I have previously heard that some BB creams can be quite orange hued when applied to fair skin. However the light was a beautiful colour and matched my skin tone well. I found the consistency to be interesting, it almost felt a wee bit moussey when applied to the skin, but the finish is great. I did find that I needed to powder this a wee bit as it did look a little shiney, but I think that it would be fine in summer when a 'healthy glow' is more acceptable. I would wear this product on 'no make-up' days with a bit of mascara and feel put together.

Finally a tinted moisturiser for sensitive skin! A bit overwhelming at first glance though, the amount of writing on the box is like a small novel! The first thing I noticed was it mentioned fragrance free however it smells exactly like sun cream! It is about the same greasiness too. However it has great coverage, easy to apply from a squeeze bottle,. I used it once a day in the morning post shower and it did the trick as a base coat for makeup.however I am not 100% it did all it claimed in regard to fixing blemishes etc! but with continued use I feel it would. Depending on price and availability I would probably buy this again.
