garnier bb cream

After using this product my skin is usuallly smooth and soft and this product made my skin oily and break out in pimples...its quite easy to apply and you dont need much. It has a pleasent smell but doesnt last long. Coverage is good.. quite smooth and goes into skin quite well. During the day you forget u have it on...it does it job all day.. pricing is good.. worth its price and i havent tried other bb creams..Packaging - is nice and states exactly what to do with it..I would reccomend to a friend who uses skin products like this often but otherwise i would personally stay away from it.

Tips: No

ok but could be better

When trying this BB cream I had to YouTube the best way to apply them, most said to use your fingers however I found it so much easier with a stippling brush. The cover was quite shear and I found it left my skin looking and feeling oily if I didn't use a powder over top. It has a very chemically smell which does go away once its all buffed in. I am very fair and being winter im slightly paler so it was very slightly too dark but wasn't too hard to make it work. Didn't make me break out or anything which is great. Its a nice little BB cream to have in the kit though and found it made a great primer for foundation :)

Tips: Definitely use a stippling brush to apply, helps with even coverage and blending it out. Use a matte setting powder to take away the oil slick look on the face.

Great for unblemished skin

I found this product easy to apply and quickly absorbed into my skin. It has a pleasant enough smell and definitely gave my skin a nice glow. I found this bb cream did not provide as much coverage as I would have liked but would probably would use again as a primer before putting on something with a bit more coverage or for those days where I don't want to wear makeup. My skin did feel hydrated after using but wouldn't go as far to say my skin looked ''flawless' as redness and imperfections were still visible. Suited for those who are after a very light tinted moisturiser which has very minimal coverage.

Decent BB Cream

I have been using this daily since I bought it, it does the job but in my opinion you need to already have quite nice skin for it to do a good job. So on a good day it evens out my skin tone nicely. On most days I don't like to have full foundation so this is a nice daily alternative with a lighter coverage. The smell is quite strong but not too unpleasant and I find that I really need to wash my hands thoroughly after applying as its quite greasy.

I do like the colour however I am a light olive skin so would say its quite dark and not sure it would work with anything lighter. The consistency is quite thick but I liked that about it as it worked well for me.

I use this and then set it with a bit of powder and bronzer, if you have a few blemishes I would recommend something with a bit more coverage, I will continue to use this but will most likely try another brand to see if I can find something that suits better

Sheer BB Cream

As I have quite a few pigmentation marks on my face, I thought that I'd give this BB Cream a try and see what it did for my uneven complexion.

To be honest, I wasn't expecting much as being an all-in-one I knew it would give a very light coverage. The BB Cream did even out my skin tone a little and disguised most of the pigmentation marks (it did not hide them completely, like foundation would, but it did even them out enough for me not to worry about looking "patchy"), it also covered the odd blemish too, leaving me with a much more radiant looking complexion and a barely there, "not wearing make-up" look, which is great for those days when I don't really want to be wearing full-on make-up (like going to the beach, etc.), but still want to feel confident and comfortable in my own skin.

One thing that I didn't like about this product is that it seems to make my face a little itchy for the first hour after I've applied it. The itchiness isn't bad, rather just irritating and does settle down.

Tips: If you don't normally wear foundation or 'don't have the time' to apply a separate sunscreen, moisturizer and foundation every morning, then this all-in-one is quick and easy. You may need to experiment a little to find the correct amount to use for your skin type, as I found that any excess product made my skin look rather shiny (a light dusting of powder does fix this), but after a few days of trial and error, I found that a pea-sized amount was ample for my face and neck.

Meh

This is my first BB cream (I never understood the hype around something so close to a tinted moisturiser) It gives me the same coverage as a light foundation but it comes out of the tube really thick so I was expecting something a little mid coverage type. A small pea sized amount usually covers my whole face (I don't like using a lot of product). Not sure if its a one off or maybe how they all are but it comes with a yummy smell to it. I don't like how it gives you a dewy finish, I like matte finishes but its nothing a little powder finish cant fix. Unfortunately this is the lightest colour and it is still a shade too dark but thankfully its only a shade and due to it being light coverage its barely noticeable. I have normal to dry skin and even moisturising before hand; this product still isnt moisturising enough so my nose dries out during the day. I personally wouldn't purchase this again so I'm thankful I was gifted this one.

Garnier BB cream

So i brought this as a weekend wearer i wasnt expecting fantastic results and kind of glad that i thought that!! This is nice for the days where you dont want to wear makeup but not want to have a naked face a very light coverage similar to a tinted moisturiser it left my face quite shiny and dewy looking and without a powder just melted off. For the price $ 16.99 i think is actually a little steep

This product would be best suited to someone starting out in the makeup world or a teenage.

The pigment is quite dark im glad that i only purchased the light shade or i would have a orange halo around my face and neck!!!

even thou this product wasnt for me i think it could be better suited to a younger age group its very easy to apply and a little goes a long way.

Tips: This BB cream is probably better suited for the teenage catergory or as a introduction makeup!

A glorified tinted moisturiser

I bought this in light but it's still too dark for me. I find it to be extremely light coverage but it does even out my skintone more or less. It's definitely moisturising but aside from that I haven't noticed any significant improvement to my skin. I rub it in like a moisturiser and it is a bit oily at first but it does absorb. I use this as a primer or a tinted moisturiser/sunscreen and that's basically all it's good for as far as I can tell.

bring back the old formula

I love this stuff and anything by garnier but im not happy with this particular cream any more. I find it rubs onto my clothes even with a very light application and this is a problem I never had before.

Tips: Its still a good cream but not great like it used to be. Excellent for light coverage and that no make up feel. Use a make up sponge to apply

Colour isn't very light but otherwise it's decent

The colour isn't light enough to match my skintone, I have to blend really well to prevent it from looking too orange. This defeats the point of BB creams- ease. If your skin is very light you might want to avoid this product.

Still, it's easier to apply than foundation. It feels better on my skin than foundation. The coverage is decent for a BB cream.

I won't repurchase because I would prefer a lighter colour and there isn't one, but if your skin isn't very light this is a decent product and I would recommend trying it.

I had the exact same problem with it! ended up giving it away to someone with darker skin! although I found it was quite patchy on my white white skin even with intensive blending :( not so good for us people lacking in colour!
