To start off with, I am very very very pale. The colour I used was light but when I squeezed it out I was initially concerned that the colour would be too dark for me. However applying the light but creamy bb cream it melted into my skin both in term of colour and application.
I have used this both alone and under a normal coverage foundation. Alone it gave me nice glow and evened my skin tone - just needed a bit of concealer for a few bits. Under foundation it gave a great base for my foundation - however I would prefer to see a higher SPF.
I can't really judge the 24hr hydration claims as I wash my face at night!
I don't normally wear make up at all but this product is fantastic to use. It blends beautifully and it doesn't even feel like your wearing anything other than moisturizer. Its a one step perfector that I would definitely recommend to all. Thanks Garnier I'm sold!
Tips: Just cleanse and apply like a moisturizer it's that simple.
