I have tried this product before, about 18 months ago and didn't like it. So I was pleasantly surprised by this improved version. The cream does not feel heavy when you put it on (unlike the last time), and does not look like foundation once it settles in. Its very comfortable to wear. I do like the coloured pigment - it gives a nice level of coverage without looking like Dame Edna Everidge. I have used it with a bit of mineral powder and it made a nice light feeling makeup base. Its a bit too soon to say whether the wrinkles are reduced, but my skin does not feel too tight in the morning, or too oily by the end of the day when using this. I have had a bit of a break out on my chin, probably from using a different cream than normal. However this is now settling down. I think my skin does feel more hydrated. The cream does have a smell, but its not unpleasant. I normally use a cream with no parabens or other nastys, so I LOVE that this product has no parabens. I am going to keep using this product until its finished, just to see what the longer term benefits could be. I just maybe a convert - the price is certainly right!

Tips: Yep, there is no getting around it. You need to cleanse your face at night. The cream does leave a colour residue on the skin which I just had to get off at the end of the day, my face felt too dirty otherwise. And trust me - I am not the world's most disciplined night cleanser.
I was actually very surprised with this BB cream as i wasn't quite sure what to expect as I hadn't used one before. It is exactly what I have been looking for in replace of a tinted moisturiser I can't get any-more :). The coverage is about right and the fragrance is not overwhelming. Very easy to apply although not sure how long one is meant to wait to apply a second coat if need be as box doesn't tell you. My skin certainly appeared smoother maybe glowing, although have had no comments on this. Would I try again, definitely. And love the fact it has sunscreen in it as well, great for all year round :)
I have never used a BB cream before so was really keen to give this a go. Glad that I did, this product is great. Love the texture nice and creamy, easy to go on and blended very well. I usually use medium colour, this was quite darker than usual, would be great for summer. Loved it though made me look like I had my summer glow on! I have been using it everyday and found I really didn't need foundation and just touched up with my mineral powder. Skin felt moisturised all day and product lasted the day as well. Haven't noticed any wrinkles change though but will keep using a wee bit longer to see if it makes a difference. Great that has sun block added. Nice fragrance not too strong. I would use this product again, great stuff.
I was a bit sceptical at first when I heard about BB creams and i've never tried to before now. I'm so glad that i've tried it and I definitely think i will keep using it from now on. Instead of just putting a moisturiser on in the mornings and going to the shops looking pale and tired, I totally look refreshed. My husband even told me I look different (in a good way:-) when I had it on. I absolutely love the smell, and the package is also very attractive -looks clean and fresh. It also covers up quite nicely and I don't need to reapply it.
I also thought this would give a break outs, but after using it for a week i had no break out what so ever and my face feels young and fresh!
The only thing that i didn't like was the consistency. It's quite thick so it doesn't apply as easily/smoothly as normal moisturiser would so i feel like i'm using quite a lot at once. (won't make me stop buying this though) Over all a very nice product and i hope it lasts me longer than what i think it will.
Tips: I apply a little bit under my eyes a second time to help with some dark circles every now and then.
I asked for a "medium" as in Maybelline and MAC I use "medium" and they match my skin perfectly. The Garnier "medium" was far too dark for me, unfortunately, so I didn't use it every day for the days of the trial. The one day I did use it (until I saw myself in the mirror at work and freaked out) the smell, consistency and coverage was brilliant. It smoothed lines and really kept my skin matt. I'm kicking myself I didn't go to a pharmacy and try this stuff so I could have ordered the right colour!
Tips: Try the colour on back of your hand before buying :-)
I found this product to be creamy & feels a lot lighter than I expected when applied to my face. It gives great coverage & evens out skin tone and left my skin feeling moisturised and fresh. The fragrance was light & pleasant and lasted the day. I would recommend this product and was impressed. I would like to see what it is like in summer as it also has a built in SPF15 which I really like in a moisturiser. I think it would be the ideal all in one make up essential.
Tips: I applied this BB cream with a cotton pad which I found gave a better coverage.
I have not used a BB cream before and I did like the look and feel of this on my skin, it covered my thread veins very well and went onto my skin nicely but I did not like the smell particularly. I think it would have been better un scented. Overall very good tho, I was surprised the light colour actually matched my skin tone very well. It was quite moisturizing so good for skin my age.Not sure how it is anti-aging but it covered my blemishes and veins/redness so was happy with that and I will probably buy another tube once I run out of this one.
I am really impressed with this BB Cream. I had been using an expensive product over three times the price of the Garnier product. I thought it would only provide bare coverage but was very pleased with how professional my appearance looked. It is very smooth as a base for eye-shadow and blush to stroke onto. I have pigmentation issues and these were minimised as well without having to use heavy make-up. I like the fresh look of my skin and have had comments on how well I look. I am using the medium and the only thing I would change is to go to the lighter shade for Winter.
Tips: For a more sheer appearance or for very very dry skin, mix a little moisturiser with your BB cream in the palm of your hand and then apply.
Very good product for the price, I found it a bit thicker than other BB creams I have tried but it was really good and left a really nice glow that lasted all day! The only think I did not like is that it said it had sunscreen but did not say what spf so I did not know if I could reley on it as a sunscreen like I have with others I have tried.
Tips: I used a flat top brush to put it on and also tried a beauty blender, these both worked well.
BB Anti-Aging cream - never thought I would get to that stage on my life!!! The anti-aging cream certainly gave my skin a more healthy, radiant look about it. It smells fantastic so is very pleasant to wear. The only issue I had was that it did make my skin a little bit oily so perhaps next time I would go for the oil free option. Other than that I think it is a great product, priced well in the market and would definitely recommend it to my friends and family.
