My opinion of this BB cream has changed dramatically - initially, I thought it was pretty great but now I'm not so sure. Even in the light shade it has an orange tinge which is awful and needs to be toned down with a powder to look any good. Upon even closer inspection it looks as though it tends to "grab" on to any dry patches and look pretty flaky. Not sure how I missed that in the beginning, I'll put it down to bad lighting or just not paying enough attention. I will try make it work but it shouldn't require that much effort in my opinion.

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-free Medium
All Garnier products are officially approved by Cruelty Free International.
Since 1989, Garnier has been committed to a world without animal testing.
GARNIER'S new BB Cream, combats shiny, oily skin, by combining the power of ultra-absorbent mineral pigments for an immediate matte look and perfect, even-toned skin.
The oil-free BB cream works in five ways. It reduces imperfections, moisturises, gives skin a healthy glow, delivers a beautiful matte finish to skin and provides all-important sun protection with SPF 15.
GARNIER'S Oil-free BB Cream provides instant results while also improving the skin’s quality over time. After four weeks the results are clearly visible; skin is less oily, pores reduced in size, imperfections are visibly reduced and skin radiance is improved.
It has a new active ingredient, Mineral perlite - a powerful volcanic rock extract known for its ultra-absorbing properties.
Mineral perlite is able to retain up to two-and-a-half times its weight in oil and water and is five times more absorbing than talc, meaning any excess sebum is absorbed to fight that oily shine. This combined with uncoated mineral pigments gives the skin an even tone and a perfectly matte finish
GARNIER Miracle Skin Perfector-Oil-free BB cream is available in two shades - light and medium.

I have quite oily skin and this didn't really do anything for me. It just seems to slide around on my skin during the day and I get oily quite fast. Not a winner for me.
At the start of using the product it made me break out.Bt after continuing to use it my skin seemed to settle.It has a nice smell and stays on all day.It doesnt have alot of coverage tho.
Tips: i use my moisturiser before i apply the BB Cream makes it easier to blend it in :)
literally, it is just OK.. its wasn't very even nor the colour wasn't very nice. the consistency of the product wasn't even either,
I really love the original product, but didn't really like this oil free version. I found it to be quite pale, even using the medium one. It is much paler than the original version of this product. I also found it took quite a while for it to blend into my skin. I don't have particularly oily skin, so perhaps this is why it didn't work for me. I also found it to be quite runny and messy coming out of the tube. It does come in a great sized tube which would be handy for your handbag.
I found this to be a good winter colour match for my skin. I was excited because of that. However its too runny. It dried my skin out soooo much that I actually had flaky bits of skin (primarily on my nose) where there wernt flakes before! The coverage is very light to medium at most. Overall I wouldnt recommend to anyone. I havent purchased again and the tube I do have is 3/4 full, and Ive had it for ages.
I have had this product for a while and to be honest with everyone I just wasn't impressed with it from the start. It is running in consistency compared to other BBs and I was applying it with my fingers. not only was this messy but it definitely contributed to my dislike of the end result.
Now having had such a negative introduction to this I still couldn't bare to part ways, so in my handbag (also known as the abyss) it would sit... flash forward to present day and I found myself out with no make up on and no make up in my bag (eeek) so I was desperate and grabbed my foundation brush and my BB and what do you know... WHAT A DIFFERENCE!! Heck I think I am converted.
I found the coverage to be just about perfect and it felt light, no cakeyness and best of all it didn't make me look orange (bad experience flashback), and no breakouts after!!!.
I have scored this lower than I would have normally due to first impressions and no tips on applying it with a foundation brush to be found anywhere on packaging (having only been converted to brushes in the past year or so... I found this an important piece of information that was lacking)
Tips: Apply with a brush for best results
Initially when using this product I noticed that it was very runny. Once I applied it I must admit it did give a lovely even skin tone and made any redness less visible. My plan was to wear this underneath my normal mineral powder foundation, but it made it seem too heavy for me. Even though it was oil free I still found it made my face shiny by the end of the day. In saying that, my sister swears by it and wears this with just a little bit of bronzer over the top for color. I would still recommend it to others as it does even out the skin tone very well
I brought this BB cream in need one before school started after a couple of weeks of constant use I have still not formed an proper opinion on it. Pros: Nice light but build able coverage smell is pleasant Doesn't seem to make me shiny Cons: Colour is a little bit orange Hard to blend out Overall it is an okay BB cream but since having a high standards to bb cream since using many asian ones I think it is a good one for the summer since it is a nice natural matte finish.
Tips: when blending it out blend in sections because it dries very fast. another tip is to use a flat top kabuki works well with the BB cream.
This product was very moisterizing and i loved it in the fact that i could wear it alone or with concealer if i had some bad acne or scaring or circles. Con this product is only for people with pink undertones so i struggled to wear it as i have yellow undertones, i did however put powder on over but the pink tones still showed through.
Tips: Can wear if you have yellow undertones but would have to wear a full coverage yellow toned powder over to counteract the pink tones.
