This arrived two days before I went overseas. It was the only foundation I took. Though I have to admit that I still took my moisturiser with me. I found the produce to be great when you didn't want the heavy look and I didn't even need to moisturise in the morning. It covers well and look good in photos. I would happily switch to this for every day use

I liked thickness of this cream blending into my skin, covered over my sun damage and vitiligo quite well. It's got a nice fresh fragrance which fades away. I like the fact it has a sun screen in the cream which is very important to me, because having vitiligo, it is not good to get sun burn on those areas, as it burns quicker and deeper. I would use this cream every day for going to work and recreational time and to prevent further sun damage to my skin. I like that is retains moisture unlike other creams I've use where the cream seems to dry out quick and still leave my skin looking dry and flaky. The information on the packaging encourages me to want to try this product to see how well it works. It's very cheap for the price. I found I didn't need to use a lot to get coverage, about the size of pea was enough. Removing the make up at the end of the day was very easy to remove.
Tips: To even up the vitiligo, apply once and then go over again with a second coat over the area affected, for a flawless look. Dab on sun damage spots and blend in.
This was the first BB cream I ever tried, and has stood the test of time to remain my favourite. I use the medium tone on a daily basis and it fits my skin perfectly, giving it a fresh and shiny look. I found it to have very good coverage and like that it is a little thicker in consistency - without being greasy or heavy on my skin.
Tips: I put a light powdering over the top to make the coverage last longer. Also make sure to wash your hands after use as it will get on everything you touch!!
I am a longtime wearer of "pancake" makeup so as I was nervous about trying a liquid foundation I thought I would give a BB cream a go first. WOW, so easy to apply, doesn't suffocate my skin and it lasted all day too with only a little bit of an oily patch developing in the T zone during the later part of the day. It hasn't affected my sensitive skin in any way so I am now on my second tube of this fabulous product. Such a good price too.
Tips: Use a matte finishing powder if you suffer from oily skin.
I thought it was a great cream, i mixed it with some of my morning moisterizer so that it went further and lightened it up slightly, as it was a little dark for me. doesn't clump or cake and is a good overall coverage.
Tips: mix with a moisterizer!
Having an uneven skin tone as well as acne scarring, I have tried my fair share of BB creams. This one from Garnier really does the trick for me! I use it every morning. I don't even bother with foundation anymore, as this cream gives you a lovely light coverage. It is a little thick but it spreads well. It has a nice scent too which is a bonus and I always feel more confident leaving the house once I've applied it - it gives me a fresh, healthy and natural glow which I love. The only downside is you will need a second application if you want to maintain that look all day.
Tips: Apply with a sponge to avoid streaks and using natural daylight is best so you can make sure it's all evenly applied.
The first make up product i bought for the complexion. I used it a first time and i really hated how it looked (no coverage in my opinion) even if it felt like nothing (great point). But then I bought a concealer and a powder, so I really appreciate it now.
This is the second bb cream I have tried after being hooked and in live with my younique one. But for this low price I thought I'd give it a go. I got the light/clair tone and I originally thought this will be too dark as I'm quite fair, but I used about a pea size worth and blended out with a blending bud and wow it definitely corrected uneven skin tones and looks even better when applied over my primers. It is very light so not the best coverage for blemishes but a dab of concealer and set with my usual powder and I'm all ready to go. It lasts all day with primer but find it is wearing off by evening otherwise.
Tips: Use over primer and ur look won't budge just like a foundation.
I use this BB cream every day in place of foundation. As a busy mum I don't have time to do a full face daily but I pair this and set it with a powder and it gives me enough coverage not to feel naked and even out my skin. It's almost on me and has a pleasant smell. I do think the medium is quite dark.
Firstly, I don't use this as my sole moisturiser. Whether just psychological or not, I don't feel it delivers enough moisture, and I've never been sure of what SPF it has. So I use my regular moisturiser underneath and then this on top (instead of foundation - if wearing make-up, I do skip this cream - perhaps I shouldn't?).
It's perfect for winter, adding a bit of a colour boost to my complexion without looking like a spray tan as some tinted moisturisers do (I have fair skin and use the 'light' cream). It does even out some imperfections but perhaps my hide is too much for anything to get 'flawless'.
It's easy to use, pleasantly scented, wears well and I am a big fan of it as, as noted, a 'booster' - that's my personal use only.
Tips: I do use sparingly - I find a little goes a long way (I do have very fair skin so it doesn't take much for me to feel 'overdone').
