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.

Pretty good all rounder

I thought over all this was a pretty good bb cream. I have previously used the loreal bb cream and liked it but it didn't come in an oil free variety

So my review

Colour- was a really good natural colour that wasn't to yellow or pale I happily just wore the BB cream on it's own with a bit of mascara.

Application- it went on really easy and was a nice smooth finish. 1 coat was good for a nice light coverage that felt breathable. I used my Napoleon auto pilot first but that's more because I'm a creature of habit you could get away without a primer. The only downside I found was with the tube itself the BB cream sort of drips out so there's not really any reason to squeeze the tube, the issue I had with this is tht the end got a bit mucky and you kind if need to wipe the end off before putting the lid on otherwise when you opened it again it would be all over the end.

Wear- I found the BB cream looked great when first applied a overall wore pretty well except for my problem area around my nose which tends to be my oiliest spot. After a few hours it did look a little patchy and need a touch up. I did find if I applied the bb cream twice it wore better but this did look like a heavier coverage.

Overall though it is a pretty good product, one of the things I liked the most is that my skin didn't feel yucky when I took it off.

Tips: -wipe of the tip before putting the lid in to avoid mess - mixes well with your normal foundation which can be great for a slightly lighter coverage for a night out - apply with fingers blends better then a foundation brush

Garnier bb cream

The BB cream I trialed wasn't that great, firstly, the container made all the BB cream leak, and the cream was too liquidy. I really liked the smell. The texture was too liquidy and made my skin very oily, even though it was meant to be oil free. It didn't really help my blemished skin, but it was really nice as a concealer and not as a cream for all over my face. The price is really good for what I got. My tube leaked all over my parcel and made my jeans yuck because the consistency and bottle was very horribly thought and had to put it in a different container so I could control it. It is very easy to apply and it lasted me very very well.

Tips: Use a beauty blender as it makes application much better.

GARNIER Miracle Skin Perfector-Oil-free BB cream

I found this cream very light and easy to apply, i used it as a base and then applied my powder on top, and found it worked quite well, would use this product again, didn't have any bad smell either. It worked really well with my skin and did not have oily skin when it was on.

Tips: Just don't squeeze the tube to hard as it is a bit runny.

Pretty good coverage

when first used I put far too much on. A little does go a long way with this one!. I felt the consistency a bit runny and hard to control, however the coverage was great and it lasted throughout the day. I have very oily skin and this did not make it oilier which was fantastic!. It did leave a little powdery finish which I didn't like. Overall I would use it again if it was a bit thicker.

Tips: Start applying thinly hen build up

Garnier BB Cream Oil-free

Like other BB creams this is great for when you are feeling too lazy to put on a full face of makeup. On most days of the trial I wore it without foundation. The colour suited me pretty well, but was a little on the orange side (I used the medium shade). Coverage was average, despite being rather runny in consistency. It did however noticeably improve the appearance of my skin by reducing redness and shine. I am confident I'd notice further improvements after using this product over a longer period. I still prefer to use moisturiser along with a regular foundation though.

Light, almost wearing nothing at all!

The BB Cream has a very liquidy, smooth texture. Soft floral fragrance, very perfumy.

Light to medium coverage, and very buildable. It covered my redness and I was able to use a little more in places to hide imperfections.

Lasted most of the day, not sure on the actual length, but I lost a little in oily places and it seemed to stick to the dryer places a little longer.

Makeup artists I showed it to liked it, most commenting on the coverage being consistent and the formula blending well.

I used it instead of moisturiser, and loved the fact that it had an SPF.

Had the effect of making my skin look like my face but better :)

Wonderful product, and it has become part of my morning skincare routine.

Tips: I applied with fingertips as I would moisturiser, in upward circular motions. Applying with a sponge or a brush may have a more smoothing effect.

Use a small amount to start with on the back of your hand and dot it into your key areas, smooth out, then go back over to cover any areas that need a little more.

FINALLY a BB cream that works wonders!!!

Ive tried many BB creams over the years, and hadn't had as much WOW as i did with this one...this BB cream worked wonders on my skin. Other than being an oily-monkey, I don't have very problematic skin, but the small amount of redness i have on my cheeks and the few break outs i had on my chin were immediately concealed by this bb cream alone...I didn't need concealer AT ALL!! it is a thin liquid like substance that was easy to blend out, and dried to a semi matte powdery finish- i didn't even need to set it with a powder which was an added bonus (especially if your in a rush). It had a medium coverage that could easily buildup to a med-full coverage...I could wear it for around 4-5hours before i had to do any powder touch ups WITHOUT the use of a primer underneath, and i have VERY OILY SKIN!! So I'm definitely impressed... Will definitely repurchase this BB cream..best one used so far... !!! I used the shade in Medium (I'm currently a MAC NC30-35) and the shade was a good match for my skin tone, however it did have a slight pink tone to it when i first applied it, but it oxidised nicely to suit my yellow undertone skin ...

Tips: A primer would definitely help with the longevity of the BB cream. As I have VERY oily skin, and i can normally get around 6 hours with a full coverage foundation before i have to start blotting, getting around 5 hours of wear from a BB CREAM, WITHOUT primer...THATS just too awesome to pass!!

One totally shocked customer... :)

Garnier Miracle BB Cream

Often I have trouble finding products to suit my freckled skin, but with this BB Cream I have found an easy to use solution. The cream rubs on and blends effortlessly giving an all over natural yet covered glow, stops shine and lasts throughout the day. I will definitely be using this product again and look forward to seeing the lasting results.

Wonderful BB cream!

I really enjoyed this BB cream, the coverage was exactly what I needed. The consistency was alright, it was just a little runny. The packaging was also nice, just a bit dodgy on how hard it was to get out the amount I needed. My face did feel rather oily/ greasy at points of the day, but that could just be my skin.

Tips: Wear a good translucent powder over the top.
