Garnier Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-Free Review

I was very fortunate to get to trial this product. I haven't tried many garnier products in the past so this was a opportunity I didn't want to miss. On receiving the BB cream I had to try it straight away. When I first applied it I thought it looked quite orange but after getting it on my face and blending it in well it was ok. The formula is very liquid so you have to be careful not to squeeze the tube to much or you will end up with a lot of wasted product. I did find I had to work with it quite quickly or it became slightly harder to blend. I also found this was quite buildable so you can choose from light coverage or medium coverage I don't think you could get full coverage with this product. I was quite impressed with how long it lasted on my skin as it looked the same in the evening as it did when first applied in the morning without any touch ups throughout the day. My skin didn't look oily at all during the day. Overall I am very impressed with this product and it gets a big 2 thumbs up from me.

I have used a few different bb creams over the year trying to find " the one". This product I found as soon as I took the lid off it came oozing out so (be carefull), I instantly fought I wouldn't be impressed. However I stand corrected, being someone who wont leave home without foundation on. I applied the bb cream within the hour I looked in the mirror and was pleasantly surprised I couldn't see red patches on my chin area my complexion was even and healthy looking. This product was creamy in texture and in no way left my.skin oily or greasy. I did wonder if the colour was a little pale at first but it blends in and the coverage is enough to wear on its own or you can wear it under foundation which will not change your colour at all and I found the foundation lasted all day without any shine. I really like this product and will definitely be a loyal customer.

I purchased the original Garnier BB cream way back when it first came out, and I hated it. While the coverage was good, it made my skin feel like an oil slick and after an hour in the sun, I was almost slimy, not to mention that the shade was too light for my skin and made me look like a ghost.

I was excited to try one suited specifically for oily skin. I also chose the medium shade hoping that it would better suit my skin colour.

When I first opened the lid, it spewed out in a continuous flow everywhere and I had to put the lid back on quickly to make it stop. It is a very light, creamy texture, and goes on and blends beautifully. It has very good coverage and my red acne scarring was quickly lightened. However a good concealer or foundation over it should do the trick. I was disappointed to find however that the medium was too dark for my skin, and almost orange in colour. In saying that, I applied it on half of my face and noticed that it made my face appear thinner. While it is dark, it can be worked with, and you can probably use it as a contour.

It stayed on all day, although I noticed that when I touch my face or fumble with it - which I often do, it comes off ever so slightly on my fingers.

I also love the thin, small size, which is perfect to pop in the handbag for on the go - to use on touchups through out the day.

While it is a good BB cream, I have used other brands that have given me much better results. There are only two shades possible and neither one of them worked for me. I ended up mixing the medium with the light on the back of my hand and applying it on with a foundation brush to get the right colour.

I was very excited to try out this BB Cream. I have never really been into BB creams as most I have tried have only had a whitening effect on my skin. My skin has always been dull with uneven skin tone, acne scars, redness and a big birthmark under my eye. I have always been more into heavy, full coverage foundations but I thought I would give this a go and it could surprise me.

I have used it for a couple of days. I now have a love-hate relationship with this BB Cream. First of all I will tell you what I loved about it:1) Long Lasting- It literally lasted all day from 7am-9pm! I am so impressed. It stayed oil free as well. 2) Matte Finish. 3) Color Match- I got the shade medium and it is the perfect shade for my skin. 4) Use it alone as a foundation- I have been using this BB Cream as a foundation and loving it. 5) Covers Imperfections- It covered all my acne scars, discoloration and redness. The only thing it didn't cover is my birthmark but that is very hard to cover up. 6) It left my skin looking and feeling healthy and it minimized my pores.

On the other hand I did find a few flaws in my opinion. As soon as I opened it the product went everywhere! Literally. The texture is so watery, I was expecting it to be more creamier texture. The BB Cream also took a while to set and it was transferable in that time (to my phone, fingers, clothes etc) So I recommend letting it set into your skin properly before touching anything. Also I found it difficult to remove as it sunk into all my pores, nothing an exfoliater or good cleaner cant fix though.

I believe this BB Cream lives up to all it claims to be. (Shine control and matte effect, Reduces pores & imperfections, Evens tone and boosts healthy glow, Hydrates and UV protection) I am impressed.

Overall I give this BB Cream a 4/5 and It has found a place in my daily routine :)

When I first opened package which was sleek and elegant tube found consistency runny with oil type feel and fragrance smelt of vanilla with a hint of alcohol but upon application it worked well with hand but tried flat top foundation brush to make blending easy a classic foundation brush leaves streaks. BB cream dried with powdery matte finish and didn't stick to dry patches, has soft velvet smooth finish did not fade or crease though out a days wear. Would recommend BB Cream looks great, feels great and at a affordable price

So, at first I was quite skeptical about trying this product. I had purchased the shade in medium, and it was far too pink for my skin. But alas, I put my hand up to try it in Light, its free so what do I have to lose right? So, the packaging is nice and simple, the ingredients are on the back, along with instructions on how to use the product. The consistency of the product is quite runny, you have to keep your eye on it otherwise it will run away on you. The light, is no where near as pink, and has more orange undertones, which suits my skin colour. The product goes on smooth, and actually has pretty good coverage for a BB cream. It leaves a nice healthy dewy look. This BB cream doesn't break up on my forehead, nose or chin, and seems to control the oil in the places where I need it. My only gripe is that it does rub off quite easily, even when paired with setting powder or a good primer. All in all, its a fairly good product for a reasonably good price. I would recommend trying the product out somehow before you buy it, as even though you might be a medium in one product doesn't mean you'll be a medium in this product.

AMAZING PRODUCT!!!!, i normally have a really oily Tzone, but this product mattifies my skin and kept my Tzone oil free for over 8hours!! it evened out my skin tone and is a nice light consistency that makes you feel like your not wearing anything at all. Ive tried the other garnier bb cream which made me oranage, so i was quite skeptical when i got this! but i will be using this everyday now!

First of all I will admit I'm very picky with bb creams. I have my favourites- lioele, chi chi, and skin79- and while there are some I kind of like (loreal, Maybelline,) I do tend to stick with those, because they do ever thing I want them to. I was excited to try this range specifically targeted at certain issues- oil, anti aging etc. Due to my combination skin which has been quite oily through the t zone lately I went with the combination to oily formula in light. The formula is a bit thin and I had to use more than I normally would. It took a long time to blend in - tried with fingers, a brush and sponge, and I found the colour oxidized a bit orange on my skin. The finish was nice and felt lovely but the product moved easily on my skin and didn't like my foundation over the top. The coverage was ok but I wasnt impressed with the colour. It seemed to sit on my skin for a long time and not really settle. The packaging was ok but the smell of the product was quite chemically and I could smell it on my face. It didn't have a lot of staying power in comparison to others and in general it wouldn't be one I purchased, but for a cheaper bb it would stand up ok. I am glad I got to try it, I do prefer to invest in my primer products and save money elsewhere and this product did remind me why.

I first tried a BB cream about a year ago and was very disappointed. I have oily skin so I found that the product was very heavy and very dewy on my skin. I am also very fair so I chose the lightest shade and this was so orange on my skin! I used it once and felt like I had wasted my money. When I saw the ooportunity to try this BB cream I was really keen as so many people use BB cream so figured they cant all be bad. I am in love! The liquid doesn't feel heavy on my skin and it has a matte finish to it. The shade is perfect and it stays on my skin all day without changing colour or sliding off. The coverage is great as well, perfect for the weekend. I will definitely be continuing to use this product.

Garnier Miracle Skin! When I initially opened the lid on the BB cream it came rushing out and made a bit of a mess, I was a bit weary of the product after this initial flaw but was pleasantly surprised. Once I had the cream on my face it instantly evened out my skin toned and covered those unwanted imperfections. The BB cream felt light and smooth on my face and the medium colour was a perfect combination for my skin tone (with the added bonus of being SPF15). The BB cream provided good coverage for day to day wear but if I was going out I would want to use another product with this. It was awesome to see the product worked well for my skin and didn't make my skin any more oily than it usually is. I found my skin was clear after wearing it where some other products can cause my skin to break out. Overall I found the product to do what it said and I would definitely use it again for day to day coverage.
