To start off with, this bb cream doesn't really have any scent to it that i notice. The consistency is so much thicker than any foundation i use. I used different methods of applying this bb cream.
Flat top kabuki brush - This method made the bb cream go on a bit splotchy as its quite thick. It gave quite a medium coverage. It was not lightweight and it did feel like i have product on my skin.
Damp Beauty Blender - This sheered out the bb cream and gave a light to medium coverage and a dewy finish. The application went on a little better but still gave that heavy feeling of having a product on my face.
The product itself isn't impressive, within two hours of wear, my imperfections had peeped through the bb cream. My skin looked so cakey and textured than it actually is. I use essano moisturiser underneath and with or without primer, the results were not as good. It did not smooth my skin and brought out more texture than my skin actually has. It's very thick, and even though i use a little bit, it did not apply flawlessly. Unfortunately, my skin also reacted with this and had I had broken out of small comedones on my forehead. And this was the only product i added on my routine. Sorry Garnier, I probably won't repurchase.
I hate to have to make a negative review but I think it's important to be honest. I have tried using this in every way possible. Hands, beauty blender, stippling brush, foundation brush but NOTHING works for me. I've tried using primer before hand, or just moisturizer or nothing but it still doesn't help. The fragrance is sickening, it's very strong and I'm not particularly fond of foundations that have scent. The formula is nice and creamy and it applies well but on me it's very oily and looks 'wet'. The lasting time is average, it wears off very quickly but lasts a little longer with powder on top. I can't use blush or contour when I wear this because it slips off and starts caking up and flakes off. My skin is normal/combination and I have never had a problem like this with other BB creams or foundations. It looks very dirty on me, it seems to build up and flake very easily. I really did try to make this product work however I couldn't. One positive thing I could say is that the coverage is very impressive (medium). But that's it. Big thumbs down from me!
