It's a good product but not amazing

I've tried the original Garnier BB creams. In fact, it was my first foray into wearing foundation and was my go-to throughout uni. This cream is very similar. It has the same sort of packaging but I think this one is a bit pricier. The main reason is because this product comes out white, but blends nicely to a nude shade when you apply it. In terms of coverage, it does what it claims - lightweight and natural. I can still see a few of my uneven skintone underneath, but it's more uniform. Consistency is about the same as a moisturiser, so points there again. I've not noticed any extra luminosity or glow, however, but the product does sit on my skin with a slightly oily/sticky sheen. Two things I don't like is the smell. It's got added fragrance so not the best for my sensitive skin (although my skin seems fine accepting it). Quite perfume-y. Another aspect is that it's only SPF 15, which, in New Zealand, is the bare minimum I'd wear on a cloudy winter's day. For summer, I like that this is lightweight and a BB cream, but not idea for sun protection. Overall, will use up the bottle. It's reliable, but nothing amazing.

Tips: Apply sunscreen underneath, and blot after applying to remove extra sheen. Then, you'll be ready for summer!

Definitely a nude!!

I was so excited to try this as I currently use Maybellines B.B. cream in medium, and have used Garniers BB cream but found it wayyy to orange. It was odd first seeing that the cream was white but amazed me when I rubbed the cream between my fingers and the pigments changed a nice light beige colour. I applied the B.B. cream every morning using my fingers but found that it didn’t have much coverage at all even after a second application, it also made my face shiny throughout the day. I thought it might make a good moisturiser with the SPF rating if only it didn’t cause the shine. It did smell good though!

Garnier BB Cream Nude

This BB cream had a really nice smell and lovely consistency on the skin, it didn't feel too sticky straight after applying and I liked that it was very sheer and water based for these hot summers. I think this BB cream would be great for wearing at the beach when you want something light on your skin. I loved that it was SPF as well. I also loved that you could apply this onto your face without the use of makeup brushes. However, there were some cons for me with this BB cream. I didn't like how it was white out of the tube and then changed color onto the skin because I couldn't really see where I was putting it. This BB cream also went orange on my light-medium skintone and got into my hairline and eyebrows. It also made my eyes sting like crazy, I'm not sure why as I've never had this before, perhaps a allergic reaction??? After wearing it for a full day my face did go quite oily

This is my new favourite BB Cream!

I have to say, I really like this Garnier BB Cream. The cream is very light in texture, so you don’t feel like you’re even wearing anything. When you squeeze it out of the tube, it just looks like moisturiser and has no colour, but somehow, it seems to miraculously match your own skin tone. I put some on half my face and the colour matched the other half of my face perfectly.

It has a light, fresh smelling fragrance and gave my face a nice, healthy looking glow. My skin looks smoother when I’m wearing it, but it doesn’t really look like I’m wearing any makeup. It just seems to smooth out the imperfections and my pigmentation wasn’t as noticeable. The tube it comes in, is easy to use as well.

I like that it has Vitamin C in it, which is meant to be very good for your skin. My skin looks very hydrated when I’m wearing it. If I had any criticism at all, it would be that the SPF factor is only 15 and I normally look for an SPF of 30 in my foundation. Having said that, it would probably feel thicker if it had an SPF of 30 and I really love its lightweight texture and how easy it glides on. If you want to have a higher protection factor than 15, you can always do what I do, and use a moisturiser with 30 SPF, under this BB cream.

I’ve enjoyed trialling this BB cream so much, that I will switch to using this now. All in all, I will definitely buy this BB cream and I would recommend it to my friends. I imagine you can purchase it at the supermarket, along with other Garnier products, which is always handy, as well.

Tips: If you want a more “made up” look for the evening, you can add another layer of this BB cream.

Another great BB cream offering from Garnier

As a regular user of Garnier's Original BB cream this is a great alternative. I have olive skin and was rather skeptical of the "one shade fits all" claim but this product most definitely self adjusts to your skin tone and does not have red/yellow undertones. I would even go as far to say I am happier with the colour match of this than the normal/medium Garnier BB cream I usually use. Consistency and scent are the same as other Garnier BB creams - The consistency of the cream is thick-ish but goes onto the skin nicely and absorbs well. Scent is faint and pleasant, not at all overwhelming.

Nice Daily Moisturiser

I have a mature sensitive skin with some redness on the cheeks. I have been using BB creams for many years and was interested to try the Garnier BB Cream Nude. I applied the Garnier BB Nude Effect as a regular moisturiser on my skin. I used half a pea size amount for each application and even applied a second layer for increased coverage. It didn't quite cover the redness as claimed. I like the consistency of the cream. It is creamy. The cream doesn't run out of the tube as you open it, as many other creams do. The pop-up lid makes it is easy to use and the lid closes well. The fragrance is nice and fresh. I tried it during the very hot and humid days of February in the Waikato region. The cream lasted well and kept my skin hydrated. It is also nice to have a SPF 15 UV protection. Unlike other BB creams I used, it is interesting to see that the texture is white. The texture has mineral pigments which adjust to match the skin tone. The cream is about $5 more expensive that the BB cream I usually use. I like using this product and would recommend it to my friends.

Tips: Apply some powder for a perfect finish.

Wish it looked as good as it feels/smells

This BB Cream feels extremely lightweight and natural on the skin, however, it seems to become quite blotchy in colour with orangey patches after a few hours (potentially something to do with the mineral pigments?). I have tried using it on its own and with different primers, application methods and powders etc. and I cannot stop this from happening. The scent of this product is so nice and clean which is a bonus however it may not be ideal if you have sensitive skin. As there are other BB creams that work a lot better for me I do not see myself ever repurchasing or using this again in the future.

A Great Staple Product

The first thing that struck me about this product was the scent, really nice and fresh. The coverage was perfect for a BB cream, sheer, but not to much so, with good coverage. Easy application, and it lasted well, even in the very humid Auckland February weather.

Tips: This worked well as a light daily BB and didn't need too much powder to finish.
