Garnier BB Cream

I must say I was nicely surprised with this product. It promises so much and it delivered for me. Some of the promises are, that skin tone is more even for 90% of women in 4 weeks, well I'm already seeing the difference in mine every night when I clean my face, and the box says that immediately on application of the product you will notice skin is soothed, intensely hydrated and redness is reduced and it has done all this for me, when I put it on it makes my skin so smooth and even looking, it doesn't completely get rid of my freckles but it does blur them so that they don't stand out.

It is a lovely light consistency that glides on very easily! I just used my fingers to apply and you don't need much at all for it to cover your whole face.

This product is fragrance free, and I have had no reaction in the week I have been using it, so that gets a big tick from me as most things with strong fragrances give me eczema.

The packaging is just a picture of the product with a black background, so nothing special. The product itself comes in a handy 50ml size perfect for chucking in the handbag.

One gripe I do have is that I did have to apply it again halfway through the day, it had faded and rubbed off although my skin was still moisturised from it.

Altogether this is the perfect everyday product for me, Its made my morning routine a lot quickly, I don't have to use foundation and powder anymore (unless I'm going out to dinner or somewhere that requires fuller coverage) to get even skin tone. I put it on with some mascara and it is lovely and light and I feel like I'm wearing nothing but moisturiser.

I have even already started recommending it to my family as they have been telling me that my skin looks so lovely and healthy.

Tips: Careful when squeezing it out of the tube, it comes out at a very fast rate and you don't need a lot at all to cover your face.

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream

I was fortunate enough to be selected to trial this product. I selected the "light" shade which was way too dark for my skin tone (I have porcelain skin colour). However by adding powder I was able to lighten it slightly so I could trial it properly.

This BB cream definitely goes a long way. It is extremely thick, and you only need a small amount (pea size) in order to cover your whole face. I applied it with my fingers as I would with any moisturiser and it left my skin feeling hydrated and dewey.

The BB cream itself is very sheer once applied and does even out skin tone however I found it didn't hide any imperfections. I added concealor on the top to hide a couple of blemishes.

By the end of each day I found it had mostly worn off. I tried adding some finishing powder which made it last a bit longer.

I think this product is best suited for weekend wear for a more relaxed look or those who have extremely clear skin to start with.

Unfortunately I would not purchase this product for myself simply because it was too dark for my skin tone. I needed to add a lot of product on top on order to leave the house.

Tips: Add finishing powder to increase longevity. This enables you to take it from being a home product to a work product.

BB Creme - Oil Free Sensitive Skin (Light)

I'm not usually one for BB creme as I have tried some before and my skin reacted badly, but I tried this sensitive skin BB creme by Garnier and I was surprised! My skin didn't react at all and I found I got a really nice coverage from it. I used it instead of liquid foundation under powder and it felt really light, I felt like I was wearing a lot less makeup and it stayed shine free all day! It also improves your skin the more you wear it, it cleared up pimples and reduced a lot of redness over the 4 days I wore it.Definitely recommend, I will be using this instead of liquid foundation from now on.

Tips: I used a blending sponge to apply it to get a nice even coverage. I used L'Oreal Naked powder on top and it stayed all day - applied with the Naked powder brush.

Super Lightweight BB cream

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB cream is so lightweight to apply - feels great on your skin, really hydrating. It looked dark in the tube but once applied to my skin it blended in easily. Coverage was alot lighter than my usual foundation but it still covered the uneven skin tone & blemishes. Great to wear in the weekend if you dont want to do full on makeup but want to have great looking skin!

Tips: A little goes a long way!

Western bb cream stepping up their game

I received this for the trial in shade light and it's the perfect colour for me. My skins moisture levels are pretty normal but it is sensitive and prone to drying around the eyes and chin and I am mostly concerned with covering up old acne scarring and evening out my skin tone.

I was a bit dubious at trying this bb cream as I tried western bb creams when they began coming out years ago and was disappointed when they seemed just like tinted moisturisers, but I was pleasantly surprised with this one! Consistency wise, it's not as thick as Asian bb creams but it is still thicker than other western options I've tried. It feels nice and creamy going on, leaving a light, hydrated feeling on the skin. It doesn't have any obvious fragrance, only a minor scent of sunscreen, which is good as my eyes are very sensitive to fragrance.

I have worn this by itself, as my foundation and as a primer/base layer under my foundation. I've also applied it three ways- with my fingers, a buffing brush and a beauty blender. I did not enjoy it by itself or applied with my fingers at all. By itself it began to disappear after about three hours, making marks visible and when I applied it with my fingers after moisturising it beaded up into rolls so I had to remove and start over- that's when I discovered my favourite method for applying this, with a buffing brush. The buffing brush and beauty blender both applied the bb cream beautifully, with the blender sheering it out coverage wise whereas with the buffing brush it crated a really lovely coverage similar to a light foundation. With the rat of my makeup over top- liquid foundation or setting powder- the longevity was significantly increased! It lasted all day whilst at work, which in retail is a good achievement. I only needed a slight touch up before going out later that night. I really love this under my makeup as it gives my complexion a really lovely glow whilst moisturising and soothing my skin, so I'll definitely keep using it for that reason. I feel it will be really nice for during summer as well, when you want something lighter on the skin.

I'm not sure if a saw any results from the claims of reducing redness or evening skin tone as I'm using rosehip oil at night to diminish scarring.

I'm still not a western bb cream convert as I find Asian bb creams much more affordable, superb quality and the packaging much nicer. This packaging does nothing for me, it's fairly simple and I really prefer pumps over tubes. It is however a good option for those who want a bb cream that is readily available in the stores here and more than just a tinted moisturiser.

Tips: Use as the base of your makeup or under foundation for a really nice, glowy complexion. I found myself using less concealer this way.

So far this product has done most everything it says on the box. I've found this product to be very easy to use, just squeeze a small amount onto your fingertips and rub it in! couldn't be simpler. I don't have majorly sensitive skin but have dermatitis that flares up often if I use anything too harsh or fragrances. This fits the bill for my skin.

In the past I've been a real fan of matte make up finish but after using this bb cream I'm starting to rethink this attitude. If I could get a bit more coverage but the same finish as this I think I would be exceptionally happy - my skin has never looked so good :)

I found 2 flaws with this product in that 1: You only get one chance to get it right, don't think you'll be able to apply another layer without ending up with a patchy mess and 2: The coverage is very sheer. All in all it's not the product for me, as although it's easy to apply and I like the smooth consistency of the product there's no point in me using it as some parts of my skin are very red and just to seem shine through so I'm better off using a foundation rather than a bb cream. Such a shame as my skin seriously seems to glow once I've got this on.

Tips: I recommend this product for ladies with skin that just needs a little boost - if you have any major redness the coverage won't be enough.

Mixed Review

I have sensitive skin, not extremely sensitive but I am weary of what I put on my skin, I have had a few reactions. when I first opened the BB cream it is a thick consistency. My thought were that this would be a great product as it will stay on and I will have the coverage that I want. I was really disappointed as the day went on I was aware of the coverage fading, unless I did a touch up the end of the day I would be back to bare skin. I would recommend it as a quick way of getting a few hours of cover for heading to the beach as it has the SPF in it which is good but for every day use I would not recommend it.

Tips: The package says to suggests to apply the product twice, that I found gave you a a few hours more of coverage, but still not as long as it is meant to.

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream - Sensitiv

Was pleasantly surprised by this product. I have tried BB creams in the past and found them either ineffective with little coverage or irritating to my skin. The Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream has possibly changed my overall opinion though.

To start with I was very pleased to see the product contained no fragrance as that is always personally been the worst offender for skin reactions and an eczema flare.

The cream was easy to apply and I found a little went a long way. I have pretty good skin other than slight hyper-pigmentation and the fact it is incredibly sensitive so the coverage was just right and I had no need for a foundation or concealer. I did however still finish with a bit of mineral powder as the cream sat a little obviously in places on my nose and eyelids. Was a bit disappointed too that it wasn't a particularly long-lasting cream and I did need to reapply halfway through the day.

Not a perfect product but it certainly sped up my routine, gave me absolutely no issues with skin reactions and the light-consistency was pleasant to apply. Would probably purchase again and will be keeping an eye on future developments with interest. I'd recommend it to all with generally clear skin and who are after something simple and speedy to add to their skincare repertoire.

Tips: The cream comes out of the tube rather quickly and you really don't need a lot so be careful with squeezing.

Garnier BB

I struggle to decide how I feel about this BB cream. I put it on in the morning and it glided on smoothly. The colour was great and the coverage was nice and light. However even though I set it with a powder, it barely stayed on my skin. I have dry skin that tends to hold foundation in place but this would come off on everything which is a pain when you work with children. The packaging was nice and simple and the bottle is a great size for travelling. The BB had a nice fragrance that wasn't too strong and really just smelled like a moisturiser It didn't irritate my skin which is nice but because it was so high maintenance during the day I would rather just not wear any makeup. I will still most likely use it in summer at the beach because it did moisturise nicely but just not something I can wear to work.

Tips: Use your fingers to apply as it is sheer coverage and would be buffed away with a brush. Also try powdering before applying to help it stick to the skin.

RECOMMENDED BB Cream

Now, my skin is difficult to work with because of how sensitive it is and it is flakey everyday, buy if i moisterise, my face starts showing pimples. When it comes to foundations, i just can't seem to get it right, they're either too cakey, or they just feel heavy but I found that this BB cream is very light and very helpful with my pigment. I've been using BB cream sensitive for nearly a whole week now and ever since I've used this, my skin has been hydrated and smooth all day and night. This BB cream lasts all day and is nice and shiney. I love this so much, I wouldn't use anything else :))
