Ive tried better

This was the first BB Cream I have tried , and I have medium/oily skin. I would say it has the coverage of a tinted moisturiser rather than a authentic BB cream! I don't like how it takes ages to set on the skin (doesn't dry fast) and the strong fragrance it has. I would recommend this to people who have dry skin though, it would look fab! and also target this product to girls at school looking for the 'natural' look ;)

Tips: pain save sells this product pretty cheap atm :)

Nice and light

I did not have high hopes for this BB cream, as I had not heard a lot about it. The first thing I noticed was that it a little goes a LONG way - you only need a tiny amount to cover your face, which is great because it means it will last longer. It has a slight shimmer to it, and provides a light coverage that does not feel cakey. This is not good for covering blemishes, and I still need to use a lot of concealer for these. However it does even out skin tone over the clear parts of your face. I have had compliments from my boyfriend saying I look glowing (since I started wearing this)!

Tips: Set it with a little bit of powder if you have oily skin. Use concealer in conjunction with this for blemishes.

Garnier Skin perfector BB Cream

This BB cream is fantastic, for someone with sensitive skin the lightness and feel of this product was amazing, even in the heat this product doesn't sweat. Application Is simple with your fingers or brush and it glides on without any clumps, for me it evened out my skin tone and made freckles less obvious, I used it as a base for makeup as well allowing a great finish. Knowing it has sub protection made me feel more confident going without makeup and it's lightness on the skin also gave the whole "no makeup" feel. Price is good for this type as there is many BB creams on the market, product packaging is simple and adequate for what it needs, and is attractive. The squeeze bottle is great for travelling with, meaning easy of application on the go.

Tips: Great as a primer under your makeup, don't leave it in your car glovebox as heat can make it thin.

GARNIER BB CREAM SENSITIVE

I feel as if this product is not really for me. if I were to purchase it I would have wanted it so I could just slap it on the days I don't feel like wearing foundation however this just did not work :( it does seem like it is very thick however once applied it is definitely not. I trialled the sensitive version so I am assuming it had no perfume in it so there was no bad scent or anything it smelt fine :)

day 1 - I used just the BB cream on its own with nothing underneath and I felt it looked very oily and washed me out I looked terrible :(

day 2 - I used the BB cream with a primer underneath this seemed to tone down the shine a tad and it did give a more even coverage however did not last the day .. I found it had gotten quite patchy by about 2pm

day 3 - I used the BB cream with a primer underneath and Australis powder over top and it actually looked really nice! it gave me a flawless coverage and ALOT of compliments however as I would not buy BB to have to use primer and powder with it I don't think I would purchase this product again as I use BB cream for the convenience of quick application :)

Tips: use this product with a primer and a powder and it is flawless :)

Excellent all rounder

I put this product to the test by using it in every way I could think of. My overall thoughts are that it is a great basic bb cream. It blends easily and you only need a tiny amount to do a whole face. It doesn't oxidize and it does last most of the day as well. It covers basic flaws and redness, if you need more coverage then concealer and foundation can be used also which makes it a very versatile product. My skin is dry and slightly sensitive. This product didn't make my skin break out, rash up or dry out.

Day 1- BB cream by itself. Easy to use with finger application. It didn't cake and lasted well.. I also added mascara and lipstick so my full face was done in about 3 minutes. This is the look I go for most days as it is super easy and looks really natural.

Day 2- BB cream mixed with some ELF shimmering whip and applied after moisterising. These blended together really easily and gave my skin a really nice natural glow without being over the top. It wore well during the day and didn't crack or separate. I also did mascara and lipstick so for a full face it took around 3-4 minutes.

Day 3- I used Loreal Magic Lumi Primer as a base with the bb cream over the top. This also gave me a nice luminous glow and I feel like this helped the bb cream to last longer. I also used mascara, eyebrow palette, blush, bronzer and lipstick so for a full face it took me around 10 minutes to apply. This is a step up from my usual makeup and if I had 10 extra minutes, then I would definitely do this look again.

Day 4- I used ELF green toned primer as a base with the bb cream over the top. This worked really well to cover the redness I get across my nose and cheeks even more. I also added setting powder, mascara and lipstick. This gave me a more matte look. This also wore really well during the day. This took me about 6 minutes for a full face.

Day 5- I used the Real Techniques sponge to apply the bb cream instead of using my fingers like on the other days. I found this gave me a more cleaner, even finish although I still think fingers do a good job too. The only downside for me with this application is that it takes me a lot longer and also uses more product as the sponge does absorb some. I did my brows, and used blush, bronzer, mascara and lipstick. This look was very natural and took me around 10 minutes to do a full face.

Day 6- I used the bb cream as a primer for my Loreal Infallible foundation. I applied the bb cream with my fingers and used a sponge for my foundation. This gave really full coverage and covered my redness, a few blemishes that I have and also really lightened my freckles. I also used concealer, blush, bronzer, highlighter, eyeshadow plus primer, brow palette, mascara, lipstick and setting powder. This is definitely not an everyday look for me. It is a very full face of makeup and took me around 30-35 minutes to do the whole look. I would use this for special occasions though, I went out for the day and it lasted really well.

Tips: I love how you can use this in so many ways. I generally just go for the easiest option, I love how it doesn't look like I'm wearing tonnes of makeup but also covers my redness and just makes my skin look more even. I think for anyone with minor skin issues then this is perfect. Or even if you have more to cover then using it underneath foundation is great too. It's such a lightweight formula compared to some others that I have tried.So try it out and see what works best for you and your time frame in the mornings!

My "Go To" beauty product

I just love this stuff. I have been using it ever since it came out. I find it has just enough coverage for my liking. I apply it with my fingers, I just dont have time to muck around with brushes and sponges in the morning. It helps even out my skin tone, makes my skin look dewy and never looks caked on or cracked. I tried it over the new Garnier Blur cream, and oh my goodness, what a gorgeous finish! My skin was like velvet. I will never stop using Garnier BB Cream. A+++ product.

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream - Sensitiv

skin type- my skin normally can be a bit dry and also it is sensitive, especially to some skin products out there such as face washes, foundations etc.

consistency- I loved the consistency of this BB cream, it was light and smooth, almost velvety which made it awesome to apply. I have tried another BB cream before and I found it to be too watery, so this exceeded my expectations.

Application- I tried applying the BB cream with a foundation brush which worked really well for blending it all in. I also tried just using my finger and that worked well too, although I probably prefer the brush.

Fragrance- There is no particular fragrance that I can tell, but that's the way I like it.

Coverage- I would say that this is like a light foundation, it isn't too sheer which I like, but if I wanted a fuller coverage this could do the job if I added a second layer. I really like the finish on it as it isn't full matte and it definitely doesn't make you shine, a sort of glow which is nice.

Longetivity- I applied it at midday and by night it was wearing off, I would like it if it lasted all day, but having said that even though it wore off my skin still looked good because of it.

Packaging- the packaging is nothing exciting it is quite simple. I like that it comes out easy out of the bottle- not too much.

Price- I think it is fairly worth it for the price and for what it is, I would be able to repurchase when I run out if it stays at this price.

After using this product- I have seen that it makes my skin feel and look smooth and more flawless, however I have not seen the reduction in uneven skin tone or redness yet (maybe I will need to use it for much longer). I am happy with the look of it on my skin.

The question is would I recommend it to a friend and I would say yes yes I would, It's a great essential skin product. I would like to know how come they only do light and medium though? I think it would be great to offer BB creams for all colours :)

Tips: To make the BB cream a bit more exciting on my face I used a bronzer which added more glow and a sun kissed look! ( especially now that it is winter)

thanks for letting me be apart of the review it was a lot of fun and I have enjoyed using the product!

Garner BB cream - sensitive skin

I've never used a BB cream before so was very happy to be part of this trial. I tried this cream a few different ways to see how it would work best for me, I'm Personal Trainer so don't need a full face of make-up but still need good coverage and I need a product that will last.

The box it comes with was very detailed, But I can not comment on the effectiveness of this cream over a four week period, however I am interested to see if if it does indeed do what it says it does.

I found the bottle with the large flip top lid a bit clumsy and the first times I used it to much came out, you don't need to use as much of it like you do with foundation.

My first go with the cream was to use it just as a foundation, it's so nice to apply it glides on with no trouble at all, I found it blends very well too, I did need to put two layers on for more coverage like it says on the box, which did not leave me looking like I had put to much on at all, again it blended very well it deffently gave more coverage but still not quite what I was use to, the colour match was perfect, and it did give me an amazing glow to my face which I truly loved, I found however it didn't last, about two hours later I needed to redo my makeup, maybe it's the kind of job I have??

The next day I used it as a primer and for me this was amazing, my skin is not perfect so as a foundation it didn't cut it but as a primer I was blown away it really nourished my skin and after my 6 hours on the gym floor my makeup still looked good.

Overall I think this product is pretty good if you have skin that has light flaws or younger skin it would be perfect on its own, it really is so easy to use it hydrates and illuminates your skin, it did even the appearance just not as much as I'm used to, would I buy this again? Yes I would to use as a primer and I really am so interested if Inwill notice any changes after 4 weeks.

Tips: If using on its own apply a second time for increased coverage.

Good coverage but wears off quickly

When I first received this BB Cream I was super excited to try it. I have quite sensitive skin and my foundation often drys out my skin so I was excited to try a product specifically formulated for sensitive skin. This product worked great on my skin and didn't irritate it or dry it out. It also has SPF 15 so it would be a good BB cream for the summertime. I found the coverage great when you first apply, but unfortunately that did not last too long. Throughout the day I saw the coverage get much worse as the product came off and found myself having to reapply. I am a big fan of the Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream and do not have this problem usually. With all this aside, the Garnier BB cream worked great with my skin and I will continue to use it as a base for my foundation on those days when I need more coverage. The packaging of this product is simple yet convenient. It is a good size for travelling and is in a tube which makes it easy to get the product out!

Tips: To keep this BB cream looking great all day, try setting it with your favourite powder.
