I have tbe shade light and it is super light, very very pale. I found it a super runny formula which makes applying it very difficult because as soon as you open the lid it just pours out! Is oil free, but smells very strongly of alcohol so it is quite drying on the skin, as I have oily combo skin I found my cheeks got very dry using this particular bb cream. A good once in a while cream for me but I couldn't use it daily.

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-free Medium
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.

Reviews
Its gave me ok coverage for the light consistancy but has an orange tone and I prefer an olive under tone so I cant realy wear it alone. I wear it under my thin lizzy mineral foundation for extra coverage which is ok for now but not sure if Il repurchase.
I tried this product a while ago before the hype and I liked it but thought it oxidized more than I would like. I want to retry and work with it better and possible get a better shade. It's a really runny consistency with a decent pigmentation. Would recommend for those looking for a lightweight alternative
Tips: Pale girls beware the lightest shade 'fair' isn't THAT fair
I think if you were having problems with the texture and consistency of the anti-age BB and were having issues with the colouring this would be a good option to try. It seems to work with my skin much better and has a nicer consistency and sits a lot better on the face without any OTT glow or shimmer. I think this product is a winner.
Tips: I am a lot more impressed with this version of the BB then i was of the anti-aging which i was totally unimpressed with. This isn't bad at all! Finish your look off with a dusting of powder!
I was using the Garnier anti-ageing BB cream before I decided to switch to this one. In comparison I was a little disappointed. I found this product to be quite drying on the skin when absorbed, and the consistency was very watery compared to other BB creams.
The coverage is good and when it's dry it has a matt finish. I think this product is more akin to clean and clean cover girl foundation than any BB cream.. It is also heavy on the skin which makes me think of a cheap foundation.
I think I am going to switch back to the Garnier anti-ageing BB version as soon as this tube is done,
Tips: Use a good moisturiser before applying this product.
I went through a few tubes of these years ago and I really liked how it looked on me, it didn’t dry out my skin at all, even though it’s oil-free and more matte. The medium shade was just a tad too dark for me, but I just used a bit less and it blended into my skin colour nicely and also was mainly using it in the summer, so wasn’t too bad after all. The main reason why I prefer the original BB cream from Garnier is because this irritated my eyes so bad, there were moments when tears were just coming down my cheeks like I’d be crying and even though I’ve used my last tube up a couple years ago I can still remember how painful it was for my eyes and I wear contact lenses, so this made it even worse, not to mention ruining my mascara too. Even years later this is still the only product that ever made my eyes tear so bad, so this is an achievement, although not a good one. I still liked how it looked on my skin though, so I was just trying to be very careful around my eyes and not use any on my eyelids at all like I usually do with all my foundations and BB creams. I kept using this as it really made my skin look so much better, but thankfully years later my skin isn’t as oily anymore, so using the original BB cream is just as good if not better, but definitely better for my eyes! This is now discontinued I’m pretty sure about it.
If I remember correctly this is the first product I ever got to trial from beauty review and the only BB cream from the range that I liked. The tube is different as you can see from the other BB cream varieties from this brand and product was not as thick or creamy but it had decent coverage the most out of all of them. Bear in mind they may well have changed the formulation now this was years ago. At the time I had quite oily acne prone skin and I ended up mixing this BB with my foundation had great results - it balanced out shine with the oil absorbing properties and the yellow tone allowed me to adjust shades of foundation that were too light and or too pink toned. I remember when you unscrewed the lid there was a narrow secondary lid thing attached to the tube to prevent you squirting out too much. I recall being impressed with the coverage too and correct me if I'm wrong but they used to hold more than the 30ml listed in the above description. I would like to try this again and see if it is still as decent as years ago. I see they boast the additive of mineral perlite now. Interesting how ever my skin is more combination to dry these days so probably not really suited to it. I can't comment on weather the long term use improved my skin over all or made more pores less visible like in the claims above I'm doubtful of that. Worth a try
I'm a little torn on this BB cream, the consistancy is super runny which can make it a nightmare if it's been exposed to higher temperatures (it makes way more runny than it needs to be), especially since the original is quite thick and more manageable. I do however like the amount of light coverage this gives. I wouldn't say its good for covering any imperfection or such but gives a nice amount of colour and evens out my skin tone nicely. But with that being said I can only use this in the height of summer as the lightest shade can be too dark and orange for my skin.
Got this free with the facebook promotion, the colour was a good match, it was a thinner consistency compared to other bb creams I've tried, and so it went on in a thinner layer, its a great base for foundation, and when set, seems to last well.
This was the first bb cream I decided to try. I was really impressed with it at first but now I have others that I like. I find it quite hard to apply and blend, and it kind of leaves me looking washed out and powdery. It only has two shades which also sucks. It definitely doesn't control oil, coming from someone that has very oily skin. I mean it does a good job of looking natural, with what I would say is light coverage, but its not my fave..
