Garnier Skin Perfector BB Cream Review

This has been my go-to BB cream for a while now and I just love everything about it. I think the packaging is sleek and a good size - great for storage and travel. It has a very strong smell and I can imagine that would put some people off, but for me I actually enjoy the smell, it reminds me of cleanliness. The product itself is quite runny and I feel it does take a while for the product to soak into the skin. Initially it does feel a bit greasy, but after rubbing it in a bit, waiting a couple of minutes and covering with a pressed powder it leaves my skin feeling silky and smooth. I use the shade light, and depending on the time of year I do need to boost it with pressed powder and bronzer as it is quite light. Coverage is very light, but I find it enough to wear on a daily basis. As far as the things it says it does, I do think it helps to even out my skin tone and does give a really healthy glow. With regards to 'correcting blemishes' it does reduce redness, but concealer is needed to cover up as it is a very sheer finish. I also love that is has SPF 15!

I was pleased with the results achieved with the BB cream. The tube is a good size and fits easily into a makeup bag if travelling. The consistency of the BB cream isn't too thick or too thin, and I found the coverage to be good. It applies well to the skin. I applied the cream with both my finger tips and a makeup brush and the results were good with either method. There is a subtle fragrance, not at all overpowering similar to any foundation type product. I found that adding a coating of pressed powder over the cream, took any gloss off your complexion and it was an excellent replacement of foundation for day /work wear. I would definately recommend the Garnier BB Cream for everyday use. It is easy to apply and lasts on the skin well. A big saving when using as a replacement for foundation.

I have pretty normal skin it's not very oily or dry but I do tend to get pimples round my chin particularly during that time of the month. Luckily while reviewing this product it was that time for me so I could really test it's effectiveness. I found this product nice & creamy, & easily applied it with clean fingers. It blended well & didn't have a strong smell which I like in facial products. It only offers a sheer coverage, but I liked that because I'm not a full make-up kind of girl- & it still covered my pimples effectively. I'd say the only downside about this product is longevity, for me it would last about 6 hours n then start to sweat/rub off. For it's price though, I think this is a great product & would definitely buy it!

Firstly, I don't use this as my sole moisturiser. Whether just psychological or not, I don't feel it delivers enough moisture, and I've never been sure of what SPF it has. So I use my regular moisturiser underneath and then this on top (instead of foundation - if wearing make-up, I do skip this cream - perhaps I shouldn't?).

It's perfect for winter, adding a bit of a colour boost to my complexion without looking like a spray tan as some tinted moisturisers do (I have fair skin and use the 'light' cream). It does even out some imperfections but perhaps my hide is too much for anything to get 'flawless'.

It's easy to use, pleasantly scented, wears well and I am a big fan of it as, as noted, a 'booster' - that's my personal use only.

This arrived two days before I went overseas. It was the only foundation I took. Though I have to admit that I still took my moisturiser with me. I found the produce to be great when you didn't want the heavy look and I didn't even need to moisturise in the morning. It covers well and look good in photos. I would happily switch to this for every day use

I liked thickness of this cream blending into my skin, covered over my sun damage and vitiligo quite well. It's got a nice fresh fragrance which fades away. I like the fact it has a sun screen in the cream which is very important to me, because having vitiligo, it is not good to get sun burn on those areas, as it burns quicker and deeper. I would use this cream every day for going to work and recreational time and to prevent further sun damage to my skin. I like that is retains moisture unlike other creams I've use where the cream seems to dry out quick and still leave my skin looking dry and flaky. The information on the packaging encourages me to want to try this product to see how well it works. It's very cheap for the price. I found I didn't need to use a lot to get coverage, about the size of pea was enough. Removing the make up at the end of the day was very easy to remove.

This was the first BB cream I ever tried, and has stood the test of time to remain my favourite. I use the medium tone on a daily basis and it fits my skin perfectly, giving it a fresh and shiny look. I found it to have very good coverage and like that it is a little thicker in consistency - without being greasy or heavy on my skin.
