Garnier BB Cream - Sensitive Review - Medium

I have been trialling this product for a week now and I am very impressed! As a beauty therapist I get the opportunity to use more expensive products so I haven't used a drug store BB cream in a while but I really liked this product. There wasn't much of a smell to this product which I did really like as I have quite sensitive skin so I don't like a product to have a strong scent. Quite often my face will go a little rashy and itchy with some product so I have to watch what I use, but with this product I didn't get any of that so it is really good for someone with sensitive skin. I found this product to be very light, a did think at first that it was a watery but once it is on your face and set you can keep applying for more coverage. The bonus of this product is a little bit goes a long way which is fantastic! I used this under my foundation and on it's on and both times I thought this product definitely lasted a few hours. It did even out my skin tone like it said it would. The packaging of this product is good, small enough to carry around in your hand bag if you need a top up during the day. Overall great product I am very impressed! And would definitely use this product again.

I got the Garnier BB Cream for Sensitive Skin in the Medium shade. As a tanned slightly-yellow-toned Asian, the shade suited me perfectly. It looked like it had melted into my skin when I first dabbed some on and I sort of had to angle my face to see where the blob was to blend it out. So I was extremely happy about the shade.

I've never used BB cream before (although I did go out and get a Maybelline one for comparison) so the deep colour in the tube was kind of startling. I don't use foundation either, but I think BB cream is a great introduction to using foundation-like products. It gave really good coverage: not too much, but enough to blend out a lot of my flaws.

It smells rather strongly of foundation though, like when you get close to those ladies who've caked themselves in the stuff, which I didn't particularly like. It also isn't that easy for my skin to breathe through it either (compared to another BB cream I tried) so I don't think I'd use it for everyday. However, it does make your skin look all dewy and glowing and amazing.

My main concern was that it was not really kind to my sensitive skin. I have eczema so I'm really sensitive to abrasive products and itchy fabrics and so on. After a few days of using it, I definitely felt a bit itchy and as if the unbreathable layer was smothering my skin and I got a slight eczema breakout or two on my chin area. The strong powdery/foundationy smell that I mentioned before is also kind of offputting. The BB cream did a great job of covering my flaws but it's not comfortable enough to use for everyday.

I also found it didn't last very long in humid/rainy times, so take the tube out with you to replenish halfway through the day.

It's a great BB cream and I had so much fun trying this kind of thing out for the first time, but not for everyday use in my opinion. It is definitely a great light foundation substitute for that "naturally beautiful" look.

This was my very first introduction to a BB cream so I was keen to give it a go. The product has a pleasant smell and feels lovely. It didn't seem to cover all the marks on my face but I did like the way it evened it out and looked like I had light foundation on. I don't think I would use it everyday as after 3 days my skin did begin to break out slightly but I would defiantly buy it and use as often as I could. For someone who does not have time to fluff around with makeup on weekdays this is great as it's quick and easy to apply.

This is a lovely light moisturiser and it felt really good on my skin. As it is for sensitive skin I noticed straight away it had a light smell which was good because I knew there were no heavy perfume scents that could irritate my skin. it was easy to apply to my face it went on really lightly. It didn't feel harsh and I could use it daily very easily. after using this for a few days my skin felt really soft and really nice.

I would love to be able to combine using this with maybe a matching sensitive face wash or face scrub I think something similar in a face wash would be excellent!!

I am normally a daily user of tinted moisturiser and I do like to wear one daily instead of a heavier foundation however I didn't think the Garnier BB cream covered the blemishes as much as some of the other tinted moisturisers I have used in the past. after applying I felt by about midday that most of the tint had worn off vs. some of the other tinted moisturisers I have used in the past. This means I would have to wear a foundation over the top of this BB cream to keep the colour for the day which then defeats the purpose of having a tint in the moisturiser in my opinion

. Overall I did think it was a lovely product with a great feel but maybe could have a bit more colour in it.

I have dry very sensitive skin. Most products I have used breaks me out in weepy dermatitis. This has caused NO itchiness, no dryness and more importantly, not so thick as to sit in eye creases and make it look like you are wearing loads of makeup! I dont want to have a mask amount of makeup on and this smooths out the skin nicely and gives me great even tone. I use it as an all day make up and I will definitely be buying again. The price is affordable for such a great product

I have tried a few BB creams before, and they had left my skin very oily. I was very surprised that this cream did not leave my skin oily at all! I tried it over a few days and it left my skin looking even and glowing. It was not the most full coverage, however provided enough coverage over my red patch areas to leave my skin all evened out. It glided over my dry areas and lasted all day. I was left very impressed by this product and would purchase, and have recommend to others.

My skin type is oily And sensitive so this was great to have a BB dream for sensitive skin as usually I have a burning sensation when I put other ones on and with this one I didn't. The consistency was thick which i like as it is easier to work with, I tried multiple ways of apply this-brush, fingers & a wet beauty blender and it applied well with a brush the best I fell and went on well and was not patchy.the coverage I would say is medium but definitely does the job and is great for people who don't wear a lot of make up or this also works amazing as a base under my foundation. The packaging I liked as it is simple, not big and bulky.

I really like this cream. I used a Garnier BB cream in the past and didn't like texture/the way it applied to the skin.

This cream is much smoother and easier to apply. It hydrates and gives a good complexion the whole day (I have quite dry skin so perfect for me). Really like this and will probably continue to use after my trial pack has run out.

The Garnier BB Cream is amazing.

I have pale english skin and tend to redden easily. This BB Cream smooths out my complexion well and I especially like that you can build up the colour/coverage with multiple layers.

The product is affordable and can simply be purchased in your general weekly groceries from the supermarket which is an added bonus.

I was a bit cautious about trying this product as I have previously heard that some BB creams can be quite orange hued when applied to fair skin. However the light was a beautiful colour and matched my skin tone well. I found the consistency to be interesting, it almost felt a wee bit moussey when applied to the skin, but the finish is great. I did find that I needed to powder this a wee bit as it did look a little shiney, but I think that it would be fine in summer when a 'healthy glow' is more acceptable. I would wear this product on 'no make-up' days with a bit of mascara and feel put together.
