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.

Love it <3

I love this bb cream it works perfectly for my skin type. I usualy use this when i dont have time to put on my normal makeup and im in a rush. It makes oyu look like your not wearing anything while still covering your skin. Always fixes my red cheeks when i have discolouration.

Its really cheap also so i dont mind buyig it and i know im getting my monies worth!

I love how 1 colour fits so many of my friends faces as well.

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector!

This is the first BB Cream I've used so I have no point of comparison. However I am happy with the coverage, the matte finish, and the extent to which it reduces redness in my face. Will definitely purchase this again!

My first BB cream

I got both the light and medium shades to mix together to get my shade...but turns out I'm a just the medium. Quite a runny consistancy. More coverage than a tinted moisturiser. I've heard the normal garnier BB cream is more like tinted moisturiser so I got this on. I have fairly normal skin with the odd dry spot so I need to moisturise really well before using it. And I've started using primer under it too. Nice to use when I can't be bothered applying foundation coz I apply this with my fingers. It's a pretty good product, no scent unlike other garnier products thankfully haha.

Miracle Skin indeed

I’ve been using the Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream in medium for the last 6 months and am completely loving it.

It’s quite a runny consistency, however applied with a foundation brush a little goes a long way and covers a lot. It smells lovely and sets well on it’s own, leaving you with a nice matte finish. I use it under foundation as a primer and on it’s own. Both ways it looks amazing. It’s great for evening out uneven skin tones and tends to brighten my dark under eye circles.

In summer it was a nice, lightweight alternative to full coverage foundation and held up well on those hot humid days. Now in winter, it’s giving me a bit of much needed colour and helping to keep me skin looking fresh and glowy.

Medium colour matches well with Olive and Polynesian skin tones.

Tips: A little goes a long way, so use it to build up coverage.

A good alternative.

I like this product for use when I want to use something on my face, but I don't want to use a proper foundation. This formula definitely gives more coverage than the original. My skin is quite good, I have a bit of redness and get a few pimples but nothing too bad so the coverage is enough to be like a foundation for me. My sister, who has more problem skin, likes to use this more like a primer under her foundation. It is a very runny formula, which can be difficult to use, but blends easily. I don't think that this is a wonderful product, and I prefer the original for it's ease of use during summer, but it is pretty good, and a good price. One last con is the scent, I found it very strong and a bit like alcohol.

Miracle skin perfector!

**NOTE- i had previously reviewed this product as a newbie to BR, thinking it was the first BB cream Garnier had put out so had unintentionally put up a false review… Anyways, here is my review on the actual product <3**

When i received this product i was a little skeptical as i had previously had a bad experience with BB creams, but was excited to see how this would work because it claims to be a 'Miracle Skin Perfector'..which is a pretty big claim. I received the light color and was pretty disappointed to see that it still is quite orange on my face. I think they should cater for more skin tones because two colors really doesn't cut it. I was surprised, however, with how well it cleared my skin and how fast it did it! I was really happy with the outcome of this oil-free one because it helped control my skins natural oils and also stayed quite matte on my skin all day. The coverage is pretty good for a light wear and is perfect for everyday use. Doesn't need a dusting of powder either, like other BB creams do. The consistency is really thin and watery, which is a bit of a shame. If it was a little bit thicker, it would be perfect.

Overall its actually a really good product! Does exactly what it says it would. The only thing that really bothers me is the fact that it Garnier isn't very inclusive of other skin types. They definitely need a lighter color and a few darker ones for the ladies who have a darker skin tone. I highly recommend it to people who suit the two colors on offer!

Tips: Apply with your fingers as a brush would make it look streaky and soak up the product because it is a thin consistency.

I liked it

The consistency of this is quite watery which caught me off guard at first. It is very easy to apply, I'm fairly casual with makeup so just use my fingers and it works fine. It doesn't have much of a fragrance which is great because quite strong fragranced products don't feel very natural. It reduces redness and the appearance of small blemishes but doesn't cover very obvious flaws and if you have dry skin in any areas the flakiness stands out. It's really light and lasts most of the day although a spare lot for touch ups wouldn't do any harm. I don't use it every day but definitely over 3 times a week and one advantage of the runny consistency is a little goes a long way so the tube easily lasts long enough to be worth it's price. The price doesn't break the bank as I am a student and is great for an easy natural looking product. I do find that the product gets around the lid because it can be fiddly to get back on and the product comes out very easily. Overall I have bought this products as a gift for a friend so would definitely recommend it.

Tips: Be careful when you first open it because it is really runny which I didn't realise and it dripped all over the place haha

wow

I was super excited for this trial because i had tried the original Garnier BB cream and was very disappointed as it was thick and greasy. But this was great the watery consistency made for easy application with my fingers and the coverage is great a little goes a long way. I have a lot of freckles and imperfections and it covered them almost completely with just a thin coating. when applying it had kind of a chemical smell but it was fine once applied. i have really oily skin when not wearing makeup (which causes me to break out) so i normally want to wear makeup every day but my normal foundation is to expensive.at around $19 per tube Garnier miracle skin BB cream oil-free its a good foundation for daily use especially since its SPF 15. It is perfect for those days like today where your not doing anything and just want something on or when short of time to get ready in the morning.

Tips: A little goes along way.

Incredible coverage

Absolutely loved the product! I had assumed a BB cream would give less coverage, but I can totally see this replacing foundation entirely! I experimented with different applications, and found applying with a sponge over a touch of concealer (for under-eye circles) gave me best coverage for minimum product.

Tips: I did get a bit of shine later in the day, which I only get with some products, so a mattifying powder over top might be needed for some skin types.
