BB as an Anti Ageing Treatment?

Love the concept of an anti-aging hydrating cream with a hint of foundation colour! Multi-tasking products are the new thing of the future. I have used this product every day since I was lucky enough to be chosen to trial it. I add my usual foundation over top when going out for a heavier coverage and the BB cream acts as a really nourishing foundation primer. I have definitely recommended this product to my friends and sisters and will be buying once I complete the tube. It does go a long way so I don't think this will be for quite some time yet! The price is unbelievable and easy to buy as available with my weekly shop. A very convenient beauty staple.

Tips: I do find it a little thin in comparison to my usual BB cream or even my foundation so I apply it with a foundation brush so it absorbs into my skin evenly. I got sent the light sample which was a very good match with my skin colour. I would be keen to see a sample of the darker colour to use in summer so may purchase closer to the end of the year.

BB Cream Anti-Aging

i'm not one to use make up but i like the fact that this is lightweight,you can use one application if you like a nice natural look or apply a second layer and i found it easier to apply with a sponge not fingers i like the fact that it is a light touch of make up smooths skin,a pleasant smell about it.i found it long lasting,i don't think really had that much time to notice any big difference in my face but in saying that i did have alot of comments on how different i look,in a good way i hope.it did cover redness that i have and it"s light enough to allow your skin to breathe, and the colour match was good for light skin.the price i feel is good and yes it does"nt break the bank.have seen this on the shelf at the warehouse on the weekend so i no where to get some.

Tips: Nice natural looking foundation when applied.i would wear this on it's on as is,not thick and caked on,nice.

Anti-aging?

This product has a lovely scent (fresh and light) with a silken texture. I don't wear make up, foundation or tinted moisturiser normally; I struggled with the tint therefore. While it matched my complexion perfectly it felt heavy and I was uncomfortable with the coverage and the way after applying I would wipe my hands and the hand towel would be brown. I was really pleased that this was an all in one product: uv protectant etc, however I think for a non make up wearer I would probably only wear at night. I didn't feel that there was any improvement in my skins appearance or minimisation of aging partly because I think the trial was too short to notice any significant change. I would buy the product again but without the tint as I like the all in one:uv protectant, moisturising and anti-aging (low maintenance one product), and I liked the texture and smell.

Tips: Try applying less and more - more felt like full on make up coverage and less more natural.

I expected more

I had heard about BB creams, that they were the new 'thing' in beauty products, but had not yet tried any. I really like the texture of this product, it feels lovely on my skin, however with a real 'combination' skin, with the oily t-zone, by late morning my face felt very oily. I also found that it wasn't enough colour coverage for me during a normal work day, I felt I also needed to add foundation (which possibly could have added to the moisture level). However this weekend I have only used the cream, without foundation, and my skin feels highly moisturised.

Tips: Perhaps use only a little bit on your face if you have oily skin. If you expect a foundation-type cover then this is probably not the product for you.

More like a foundation than a tinted moisturiser

I recently received Garnier Skin Naturals BB Cream (Anti-Aging) in Light to review. Being new to BB Creams, the only experience I have had has been what I had read and heard about this newish phenomenon. From this, I thought this BB Cream would be similar to a tinted moisturiser. Boy was I wrong about that! It is thick, almost like a full-on foundation. I wanted to give it a good go, so I tried various ways of applying this product. On the first day I put a bit on my hands and applied it how I would apply a moisturiser. What can I say – that was a bad idea. It felt thick, greasy and sticky all day – and what’s worse, it ended up all over my scarf and my jacket collar. The next time I put it on, I moisturised first and then applied it with a foundation brush and then set it with powder. This worked slightly better, but still felt greasy and caked on. And yes, it still smudged off fairly easily. For the next attempt, I applied it by fingertip – but sparingly and made sure I really rubbed it in. Unfortunately, it still felt like it was caked on, but didn’t smudge off as easily. Now, I would like to say a quick word about the colour. I know the term ‘Light’ is a fairly subjective term, but this product is much too dark for pale skin with freckles; especially during winter. All of the above notwithstanding, the aspect of this product that bothered me the most was the scent, which was really overwhelming. In this review, I feel I must address the specific product claims made about Garnier Skin Naturals BB Cream Anti-Aging. Firstly, that it reduces wrinkles (and that “in 4 weeks skin appears smoother for 86% of women”). I personally cannot see any change, but I’ve used it less than one week. Secondly, it claims to tighten the skin. Again, I have not noticed any change. Thirdly, it is claimed that it evens and illuminates the skin. Possibly, if covering with a much darker shade than my normal skin is what they mean by evening out the tone. As for illuminating my complexion, once again, I did not notice this. Would I use it again? Maybe in the summer when I had a bit of a tan, but in the winter, it is much too dark for me. Further, if Garnier removed the scent, it would be much more appealing. All in all, not a terrible product, but as it is now (colour and scent), it is not for me.

Anti Aging BB Cream

Unfortunately I was a little disappointed with this product. I got the lightest shade available and it didn't match my skin tone at all as it was too dark for me, which is quite odd because my skin isn't really that pale. I think they should have a better selection of color choices. Other then that, the product has a nice scent, nice and fresh smelling, making it nice to apply. The formula was also really nice, a great consistency and really creamy. I was able to apply this with my fingers and it went on like a dream. I didn't notice anything major change in my skin appearance, but maybe this is a product that needs to be used for a while before you notice any major changes. I felt like the product was quite hydrating on my skin, but I didn't really feel like it evened out my skin tone as blemishing and scarring was still quite noticeable underneath, I know a BB cream isn't supposed to be high coverage, but I still like things to be covered up a bit!

A major plus for me with this product is that it has a SPF which is always a great thing, so this product would probably work really well for me in the summer rather than winter.

All in all, for its price, its a good product. Its a good size so you get your moneys worth as you don't need to use a lot of product, unless your trying to build it up. If this were the right color match for me I would most likely buy it again, but the color is just too off for me.

Tips: Use a bit of powder over the top if you need some more coverage on problem areas :)

Garnier Miracle BB Cream - Anti Aging.

I was very interested to try the Garnier Anti Aging BB cream as I am at the age where I need products that offer extra moisturisation and protection from the elements. I applied it to my freshly cleansed and moisturised skin and immediately noticed how velvety it felt, it spread easily and didn't grab onto my dry skin. Instantly my skin looked dewy, oh how I love 'dewy'! My skin felt 'relaxed' which to me meant that the anti aging ingredients do what they are meant to do for older skin - nourish, protect and enhance. My skin felt nourished and the coverage is perfect in that it's not too much which isn't good for an older skin as if it was too heavy it would settle into the fine lines, however it was more coverage than other BB creams I've tried and I liked that. For me it is the perfect amount to cover slight redness and imperfections. At first it felt a bit tacky, but after about 10 minutes that tackiness disappeared and it felt like nothing was on my skin yet the mirror told me how lovely this product looked on my face. I found it lasted the day well and didn't need a touch up. I did find that the 'Light' colour is a bit too dark for me, I am a fair skinned natural blonde but I found that if I blended it down past and under my jawline it wasn't so noticeable as my décolletage is darker due to sun exposure and it matched up with my face. I enjoyed reviewing this lovely velvety Garnier Anti Aging BB cream and will continue using it to the last drop.

Tips: Apply to freshly cleansed and moisturised skin. Blend it well, a little goes a really long way, and take it down past and just under your jawline.

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector

I tried this product over the last 10 days and noticed a slight improvement in skin tone - however this effect was reduced as the colour of the product was very orange. I had the medium which I am normally but once this product was on - it had a very orange tint to it which didn't look good at all. I also noticed an unplesasant scent which put me off using this. Unfortunately I couldnt recommend using this based on the colour and scent but it may be fine for others.

Tips: check the medium colour as it seems to have an orange tint to it on certain skins.

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream

Gave my skin a lovely glow without looking like a foundation, stayed in place and didn't move to my creases. My skin felt soft at the end of the day but I did get some sensitivity around my eyes but still kept using it as it was a nice smooth creme to apply and looked good.

Tips: Keep a tube in the car as a back up when your to busy in the morning

My new best friend!

This has just become my new best friend. Proof that great things do indeed come in small packages. I had people comment on my freshfaced appearance as soon as I started using it, and my skin felt great as well. Long lasting, I only gave myself a quick touch up before heading out in the evening after a full day in the office, as I didn't need anything else. I loved the feel of the product on my skin, and it certainly hid the fine lines and wrinkles that have been getting in the way of my confidence recently. I have made this item a beauty essential now and will not be leaving home without it!

Tips: Less is more - I found I didn't need much at all to get even and natural coverage.
