Garnier BB Cream - Sensitive Review - Medium

I don't usually wear BB cream in winter as I feel like there is not enough coverage. This time I wore it under my foundation and not only is it a good way to save foundation, it gave me the coverage that I wanted. However, I do have fair skin and decided that medium would be best for me. I found it to go on easily and covers well, as for blemishes, I'm still not completely sure. My skin feels more hydrated than it usually would if I was just to use foundation. I'm not 100% sure how I feel about this particular BB cream. It is difficult to fully try this product out in winter as I like more coverage than this gives. I would be keen to try this in summer to see it at its full potential.

Ive tried this product and it goes on the skin smoothly and is easy to blend. Ive tried etude, tony moly, shiseido, missha and smashbox BB creams before and this is the first drugstore bb cream ive used. I should say its not too bad for its price. It actually feels more like a tinted moisturiser than a bb cream to me, the coverage is very light and i find that i have to reapply it in areas where i have more blemishes cause it barely covers it up. I would still use it maybe for daily activities like running errands or doing the groceries but definitely not to work or on a night out.

I found with this product to get the extra staying power and coverage I needed, I did as the box said and waited for the first coat to dry and applied another and it gave me great cover but still not as much as I like.

It has a lovely thick mousse like texture and covers very well, I use it as a primer under my foundation to give me the extra coverage I need.

It goes on smoothly and blends very well,my skin looked a lot smother and more even, especially with the help of the beauty blender, I did find it was better not to use a moisturiser underneath otherwise it had blotchy coverage for me, I guess because the moisturiser I used is very thick. This cream is actually quite moisturising on my face, but doesn't leave you with a shiny face.

I haven't had any reactions from this product at all, I did get a little tingling feeling in my under eye area, so I just avoided this area all together and it's been fine since. This product isn't overly fragrance either.

I have used products with allantoin before and to me its honestly a miracle ingredient for reducing my redness, and this product was no different, disguised my redness perfectly.

Will definitely purchase again, and really love the fact it is SPF 15 aswell, an added bonus.

I liked the sensitive BB cream. I put on a decent amount on to hide up my red patches (which is did really well!) and still barely felt like I had anything on my face! It didn't dry out my skin like some other products I have dried, and it didn't make me itchy at all! It was great! It gave a good cover, even in the area's where I needed a bit extra, and didn't look blotchy. So easy and nice to use!

The first thing I noticed about this BB cream is it's very thick texture and how it smells of some chemical. I usually used Korean BB creams like Lioele and this compared to the one I use, this one has less coverage - it makes my skin looks natural and dewy. I have acne-prone skin and this BB cream did not break me out so it is suitable for sensitive skin. Another good thing about this is that it doesn't accentuate the dry patches of skin on my face (a lot of other bb creams tend to do this). Overall this is an O-K bb cream but it's not one I would wear everyday because of it's light coverage.

I was lucky enough to try this alongside Garnier BB cream for oily skin because I wanted to see which one worked better for me. I have fairly oily skin and it is sensitive to creams and foundations that are heavily scented. so I thought this product would work perfectly for me. It comes in a fairly large tube, similar to a tube of lotion. It has a slight fragrance, but I actually find it quite pleasant. It has a thicker cream consistency, which is quite misleading becauae when you apply it to your skin it turns to a much more runny consistency.

The problem came when I applied it. It offers little to no coverage. I have somewhat problematic skin, and was basically just hoping this would smooth out my skin tone a little bit. Unfortunately, immediately after I applied it, I saw that it accentuated every flaw, although I can say it did cover my redness. It applied very unevenly and made my skin look extremely shiny. I wouldn't have minded the dewiness if it had even a little coverage, but all it did was make me shiny on top of making blemishes stand out more. It never truly sets into your skin, either, but remains kind of sticky and wet. Setting with a powder doesn't help either, because the consistency of the cream does not mesh well with powder. 

To anyone looking to try a Garnier BB cream, I would definitely recommend the oily skin formula over this one, even if you have dry skin. If you moisturize and don't use a powder, it doesn't make your skin look dry but rather gives you a nice matte finish.

One thing it did have was it didn't irritate my skin at all which I loved. When I usually buy foundations or moisturizing creams it leaves my skin with a tingling feeling and can cause a lot more redness but this BB cream was very mild which is great.

My skin is quite oily and I'm very sensitive to any fragrance so I love that it is fragrance free, it actually has no smell at all, not that weird chemically smell that some fragrance free products can have.

The consistency is thick like a foundation but when I smoothed it on my face it felt like a moisturiser and as cliche as it sounds I honestly felt like I wasn't wearing any makeup.

The coverage is not as much as a foundation but more than a tinted moisturiser and it lasts all day which surprised me. My skin felt hydrated all day too although I was a bit shiny by the end of the day. I probably need the oil free version, if only they made it in a fragrance free version!

The packaging is nothing special but it is practical, you don't accidently squeeze too much out and since it's a tube you're not sticking your fingers in it so it's hygienic.

Of the 5 claims on the front of the box I would say it delivers on 4 of them (reduces redness, hydrates, illumintes, decent SPF) but fails on the correcting blemishes part, there isn't enough coverage for that, I still needed my concealer.

The first day I used this I used it in place of my moisturiser and foundation and it lasted the whole day. The 2nd day I did the same but it was a warmer day and my face got a bit shiny so I had to powder it. The 3rd day I used it over top of my moisturiser and it was just too greasy. And today I put it on as soon as I woke up and wow, that's when I was most impressed, going from just woke up face to instantly healthy and illuminated!

I would say it is value for money because you only need a small amount of it to cover your face and neck so one tube will last for ages.

I would recommend this product. It is great to use when you don't want that feeling of foundation on your face but you still want coverage but you will still need concealer for problems like blemishes or under eye circles.

First of all this BB cream definitely did what it said it would. It was very gentle on my skin and I had no problems causing any irritation.

The coverage of the BB cream was very good in my opinion. BB creams are usually used for everyday use or just as a light coverage which I found it definitely delivered on.

After wearing it for a few hours it did become a little bit patchy around dry areas of my skin so I used it with a primer and this problem was minimized.

The packaging of this product is very sleek and I think it looks very aesthetically pleasing and professional. The tube is a squeeze tube which squeezes out of the bottom, it can be hard to not squeeze out too much though so only squeeze a little bit.

The texture of the BB cream is very nice. It is very smooth but not too runny so you don't feel like you are just putting a light moisturizer on. It is very creamy also.

After applying it with my fingers and with a brush I decided it is easier to get a more even coverage by using a brush as it does not blend very easily with fingers because of the creamy texture.

I am very happy with the fact that it has SPF as it is good to wear just as a light coverage during the day and not have to worry about sunscreen as well.

I have oily/breakout prone skin, and BB Cream has always worked in my favour for this. I love how BB Cream gives me enough coverage to hide imperfections, without being as thick as foundation can be.

When I first opened this up I was a little wary, as it had a thick foundation like texture, and it smelt a lot like foundation too. But it went on my skin flawlessly, and acted just like a BB Cream. The scent was gone almost instantly, and the coverage was definitely not like a foundation. I put this on at about 8am in the morning, and it's now 6pm and it still looks just like it did when I put it on. It's light, and I can't feel it on my face, which was nice because my biggest fear was that it was going to be thick and uncomfortable to wear. I didn't wear any concealer underneath, but it's definitely hidden any redness, and it makes my skin look uniform and flawless. I love it.

Hi, I am used to a heavier coverage BB Cream. I found it easy to apply with no streakyness. But it didn't cover up by blemishes. It didn't irritate my skin though which was good. I did use it with a primer underneath and also with out. Both applications lasted all day long. The product smells nice and fresh but doesn't linger so I found that great. The packaging looks very attractive. I would use it again when I don't have any blemishes to hide.
