Garnier Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-Free Review
***THIS PRODUCT HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED. FIND THE NEW FORMULATION HER***
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.

Tips: Great as a cover up too
I enjoy using this BB cream, in summer I have used tit without a foundation on op, for a fresh faced natual look. Its light with a fresh scent, I have sensitive skin and its been gentle and Ive noticed no reactions from it. I will use again.
I got this on a 25% off special so it was nice and cheap, that's always a bonus when you're trying something for the first time. I've used the medium skin tone variant and found the colour to be a really good match. I wouldn't call it a "miracle" at all but it really does even out your skin tone and give a light colour coverage that is not as heavy as foundation. Probably the only downside is that it does tend to dry my skin out slightly.
I would use this product again as the colour and coverage are great for when you don't have the time or need for foundation but still want to look good.
Tips: Continue using your normal moisturizer underneath this product.
Great affordable product, fantastic matt result (especially for my oily 30yo skin), altho i did seem to loose product from the tip of my nose rather quickly!? easy to apply, light-weight, evens complexion with good coverage, redness, spots and acne imperfections are minimised. Downside? product is quite runny and has a strong alcohol tupe smell but bearable for the results. Love it.
Tips: Use over moisturiser, apply a light layer of foundation over the top and set with powder for a full coverage (recommended if you want your base to last the day), or apply 2 layers.
I was suspicious. With the palest skin tone known, I wasn't sure how the colour would work on my skin. But it blended perfectly, and reduced my redness! Garnier BB Cream is much lighter than my normal tinted moisturizer, and doesn't rub off in an obvious way like foundation. All in all, I really liked it.
Tips: I found putting it on with a brush was more effective than using fingers. I also brushed a little powder over the top.
The thing that got me excited the most about this product was the low price. I have quite dry skin so need to moisturise first. It is quick and easy to use if you don't have time in the mornings for regular foundation. Only real down side is that it slides off your face if you sweat or in the rain...
Tips: Wear powder over the BB cream for a matte finish
If you haven't tried BB creams before and have normal to moderately oily skin, I do recommend giving this a try. It has a lovely, even coverage that does last all day. I still have to apply a little concealer on my under eyes and over any especially red blemishes but this does have staying power. However it doesn't really prevent oiliness. While it stays on, my skin is pretty much an oil slick by the afternoon (even if I've powdered after application).
I think that this would be a great oil free BB cream if your skin is only a little oily, but my mega oily skin should probably start looking for something different to wear everyday. The reason I have continued to re-purchase this is the price and availability, it's under $20 and I can buy it in the supermarket, so I think that's a real selling point for Garnier and they should be commended.
Tips: Not really for very oily skin, but if your skin is only a little oily, this is a lovely BB cream really. I do recommend dusting your T-Zone with translucent setting powder.
I found this quite good. During the day I found it did oxidize a little bit causing me to have an orangey face (not so hot!). But it does go on smooth and has a good amount of coverage whilst still looking natural.
Tips: Applying over a primer gave me the best results.
This was my first bb cream that I opted to try, mainly because I didn't know of any others on the market. When I first got it I thought it was great, and to some extent I still do (though I now prefer the Maybelline Dream Pure). With one layer it is a light-medium coverage but with two it could be built to medium tops. I think this is pretty great for a bb cream though as it's purpose isn't full coverage, that is what a foundation is for. I apply one layer of mine with my fingers (or a sponge when I want lighter coverage) which speeds up my makeup routine significantly. Then I just go over any spots with concealer and this gives me the non cakey look I like. I read somewhere that this is supposed to be better at oil control without a powder but I am reluctant to try that as I have very oily skin. There are not many colours in this but fortunately the light shade just works for me.
Tips: Even if you have oily skin I would recommend moisturizing before this. Otherwise it applies really tacky and can sometimes even make your skin look dry and powdery.
I have used different BB creams before discovering this and I am can tell you I have never regretted using this product, I have a oily face, what I discovered after using this product is that it makes my skin it makes like feel smooth.
Tips: I also apply natural herbs to my skin to help bring out the best out of my skin and this enhance the effectiveness of this BB cream. check my blog linked to my profile for more on natural herbs I use.
