I am a big fan of Garnier BB Cream. I have tried all three versions of the product. The original cream had a good result but its staying power was minimal unless set with an 'all day' powder. I then discovered the oil free version. This lasted all day, was great on my skin, had good coverage and soon became my everyday makeup for work and weekends. My skin did not react badly to it and it did not promote pimples. I was interested to try the anti-aging as am sadly getting to the stage where a few wrinkles are appearing. I found the product thick, greasy, with inferior coverage. I think Garnier might want to modify this product. It's a shame because, as I said, I am such a big fan of the oil free BB and favor it over many high end products. In saying that the packaging is pleasant, easy to use, and the products fragrance is pleasant.If using a setting powder is part of your daily routine then this may work for you. If youo like very light coverage (similar to a light tinted moisturiser), then you also might like this version of the product.

Tips: Where a setting/translucent powder over the top so it doesn't feel like it will slide off your face. Use concealer on blemishes and shadows as coverage is light.
I was afraid that I had chosen the wrong colour when I saw the tube (medium) but once applied it was excellent. The first time I used a small amount and didn't get a very good coverage but the next day used a little more and was happy with the result. Too soon to tell if it has made any difference to my wrinkles :-) but I enjoyed using the product as an all-in-one moisturisor/foundation. Went on well, wasn't greasy, could probably finish with a light dusting of mineral powder but wasn't absolutely necessary
Tips: Applied with a make-up brush for a good even coverage
My initial thoughts when I first squeezed the product out of the tube were 'its too thick and too dark'. I was pleasantly surprised by the way it blended easily onto my skin without leaving any streaky marks and dried quickly. The smell was very pleasant, and it gave my skin a lovely warm glow as well as reducing the redness on my cheeks. The first day I tried it I wore my make-up exactly as I do every other day and my fiancée actually made a comment about how pretty I looked. Definitely a plus in my books if it makes him notice!!!!
Tips: I put a light covering of regular moisturiser underneath as I like to be really hydrated in winter and it helps to smooth the product out evenly over the skin without having to use too much of it.
This product has a nice texture and good coverage. The medium colour suited my skin well. It wore well and lasted through the work day without needing reapplying.
I think that it did what it says it will and is a nice product.
I would definitely recommend it to friends with no hesitation.
I found this product to have a nice smell and it was easy to get out of the tube a little at a time. It applied easily, though as I am 47 I found that for good coverage on my nose and any healing blemishes I needed to go over those areas with a powder foundation.
I liked the natural look and the way it evened out my skin tone. I spend half my time outdoors and need sun protection but don't want to look 'made up' so this worked well.
My only problem with this product is that I have very oily skin, and after just 2 hours I had go and blot the shine away and top up with some powder. I would definitely try the oily/combination skin one to see if it had the same result as I really liked the product.
Tips: For evening out colour and removing shine from the T zone, top off with a little powder foundation.
I am a big fan of Garnier I have used their products since they first hit the supermarket shelves and have never been disappointed. This anti-ageing BB cream comes in an easy to use tube which dispenses just the right amount of cream, it has a very neutral fragrance which is something I like in a product that is applied to your face. I chose the light colour which was absolutely perfect for my skin tone. It applies easily using your fingertips and has just the right amount of coverage, leaving your skin looking dewy and glowing (not greasy) which is what you are looking for as you age. I felt it stayed on well and would just need to reapply a little bit later in the day if I was going out. I would definitely buy this product again, as with all Garnier products it is very reasonbly priced in fact I would go so far to say it is cheap for what you get.
Tips: A little goes a long way so don't squeeze to hard on the tube.
The saturated colour of the cream in the tube was alarming because it looked like a full-on foundation as opposed to a tinted moisturiser. But it went on quite sheer and gave natural looking coverage which I really liked. It says you can build up layers if you want more coverage. The texture did feel a bit greasy on my face but I wonder if it might be that I'm not used to heavy moisturisers. Also, it is an anti-aging formula so might be heavier to provide more hydration. It did make my skin feel great. Even without it on my skin is less dry. I'm not a regular foundation wearer but I'm trying to be as my skin gets older. My morning beauty routine is low maintenance so it has been hard for me to be bothered using a foundation daily but this product's ease of application fits well into my routine.
I began my trial immediately as i was wanting to give the most accurate review possible ,my skin is normal with no concerns the BB cream was in a easy to handle tube but i feel the packaging could of been more eye catching . The consistency was very smooth and creamy so i choose to apply it using my finger tips as i would my moisturiser ,coverage was light but even and immediately made my skin soft and illuminated, however i did need to reapply in the early afternoon to maintain the coverage .The BB cream has a lovely light pleasing scent and the price is very affordable , overall a fantastic product i would happily include in my beauty routine and also recommend to others.
Tips: I would use the BB cream as a base to your normal foundation for greater coverage .
The first time I used this product I was unsure if it was right for me. Having never used a BB Cream before, I expected it to work more like a foundation and give me the cover I was used to. However I persevered and I now feel in the right environment - this product has it's place in my cosmetic bag. I would only use this product on the weekends or around home. While the product did give my skin a glow, I really am a fuller coverage girl. I will continue to use it - and who knows in time I may be converted!
Hi there. I have used this product everyday for over one week, it has a pleasant smell, not too overpowering, the first day I used it I used one application, I found it quite sheer, gave a healthy looking glow, my skin is a bit oily so it left me with a slight shine. The next day I tried two applications, this gave me better coverage, then fixed it with a setting powder, found that I didn't need any concealer with it. I will definitely use this product again, maybe I will try the one for oily skin next.
Tips: Make sure you let your moisturizer soak into your skin (maybe 5-10 minutes) before applying your BB cream.
