Garnier Skin Perfector BB Cream Review

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.

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.

I love this product, It's the perfect BB cream IF you have normal skin! It glides on smoothly, rubs on really well, and blends into the skin brilliantly. But it is a bit thick on the skin! Mask like! For me it did more than the standard BB cream job, it acted as a foundation, and covered all my spots and dark circles - brilliant for everyday wear when I don't feel like wearing foundation.

My only problem is that it's not a match for oily skin. My skin was an oil slick in two hours, and I felt like I was melting!! But when you use it on normal skin, Im sure it's perfect!

I won this BB cream on Garnier's Facebook spin the wheel promotion. I’m glad I didn’t pay for this as I would have been way more disappointed then I am right now.

I wanted to try this BB cream as I have been using the Garnier BB cream for oily skin which has a matte finish. I wanted to achieve a more dewy/hydrated finish from a BB cream. I was quite excited about trying this one. I like the packaging how its more solid and a better shape than the matte finish one (and once you open it it doesn’t leak out). I was shocked to see how thick this is. I got the shade “light” . Well you may as well call this light orange. You may need to use a sponge or bush to blend this in as it is quite difficult to do it with your fingers. I had to mix mine with moisturizer to try and make it work for me. Once applied I expected a dewy hydrated finish. It came off as really shiny. I tried to use a powder on top to tone it down but it didn’t really make too much of a difference.

I am so disappointed with this BB cream. I cant stand the smell of it. I applied and started sneezing like crazy and my friend came over and started sneezing as well. The fragrance in this is so crazy strong. It also completely broke me out! It was an awful experience! I think ill just stick with the matte finish BB cream from now on.

Really like it, gives good coverage for a bb cream, it provides me with a nice colour and blends in really nicely into my skin. Is cheap and you get a lot compared to other BB cream brands and it's pretty good. In saying that, not sure how it reduces my wrinkles (which it's meant to) so that's not very good. Otherwise, I use it daily!

I got this as a gift from mother as she didn't like it, I do like wearing some moisture through the day and a tint dose help, this has done that but at the end of the day I'm feeling dry on my face, it is thick to put on and you have to blend it in, it has a strong smell (yet to decided if like that or not), and i don't feel so fresh more oily like fluff would stick to my face, it takes to long to sink into skin. I'm glad i didn't pay the price of it and i wouldn't purchase in future, and i don't have the coverage I'd like to have.

I have been using this product for quite a few years, before it became popular. It is by far the best light / natural foundation I have ever used. It covers my flaws without going overboard. I use every single day & my face feels likeI have no makeup on at all. When our family has had special occasions, I have been able to use on several skin types & a variety of ages & the ladies have looked flawlessly beautiful without looking over the top. Totally recommend

I purchased this BB cream from Farmers some time ago. I really wanted something nice and light that would give me a little coverage and sun protection. I found the smell of this product too strong, and the cream itself feels quite thick and gluggy when using my fingers to apply. Once it's on the skin, it feels a bit too heavy for what I think a BB cream should be, and I am conscious of it all day. I think my liquid foundation actually does a better job! It's unfortunate, I really wanted to like this product but it wasn't for me. I gave mine to my sister.

I wear this for work. It is a nice colour and helps to even out my skin tone. It feels like I have no makeup on at all. A great product if you want a natural look. However, if you have problem skin, I doubt this would provide much coverage.

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.
