All Garnier products are officially approved by Cruelty Free International.

Since 1989, Garnier has been committed to a world without animal testing.

GARNIER'S new BB Cream,  combats shiny, oily skin, by combining the power of ultra-absorbent mineral pigments for an immediate matte look and perfect, even-toned skin. 

The oil-free BB cream works in five ways. It reduces imperfections, moisturises, gives skin a healthy glow, delivers a beautiful matte finish to skin and provides all-important sun protection with SPF 15.

GARNIER'S Oil-free BB Cream provides instant results while also improving the skin’s quality over time. After four weeks the results are clearly visible; skin is less oily, pores reduced in size, imperfections are visibly reduced and skin radiance is improved.

It has a  new active ingredient,  Mineral perlite - a powerful volcanic rock extract known for its ultra-absorbing properties.

Mineral perlite is able to retain up to two-and-a-half times its weight in oil and water and is five times more absorbing than talc, meaning any excess sebum is absorbed to fight that oily shine. This combined with uncoated mineral pigments gives the skin an even tone and a perfectly matte finish

GARNIER Miracle Skin Perfector-Oil-free BB cream is available in two shades - light and medium.

Oil Free BB Cream

i was quite excited to be in the trail for the BB Cream as ive never used it before, having oily skin (and prone to breakouts) i was a little skeptical that it would do what it said it would. pretty much as soon as i got it i was ripping open the packet to try it, pretty happy with tube size and amount, will probably last me awhile (maybe a few months+) since in not a daily makeup user. the cream itself is quite liquidity but not watery, i just used my fingers to put it on like i would any regular moisturizer, but i would recommend using a makeup pad to apply to stop it staying on your fingers. It was very easy to spread and blend into my face, covered my problem areas where i have blotching redness and acne. it didn't completely conceal acne but it did help reducing it visibly and seemed to help heal it also, which im pretty happy with!! i felt pretty good with it on, didn't feel like i had anything on my skin, and my husband couldn't even tell that i had it on, i never felt the need that i might need more on during the day, my skin was very soft and dry the whole day. i would definitely recommend to anyone that finds makeup harsh for there skin like i do.

Tips: my tips would be to wash and dry your face first and use a makeup pad to apply

Garnier BB Cream -Pleasantly surprised

I was pleasantly surprised with the Garnier BB cream. I have to say that initially I through that the consistency/feel of the liquid would be hard to apply evenly, however it went on beautifully and gave my skin a really lovely finish. I have freckles and I am not overly concerned about covering them. It is more the pigmentation on my skin that I would like to cover. The Garnier BB cream really did give coverage to all the imperfections (mainly the pigmentation) while letting my freckles still show through. Even after using the same daily tinted moisturiser for the last (roughly) 20 years, I am reluctant to actually stop using the Garnier BB cream. I will definitely be repurchasing this product.

Tips: You can layer the BB cream if you would like more coverage. I applied a second layer with my foundation brush and then my usual makeup routine and it stayed on all night. It really has great staying power.

Garnier oil free BB cream

I was very excited to be part of this trail as I have been using a different BB cream but wasn’t very happy with the results. I found that the Garnier cream was surprisingly runny but I still found it very easy to apply with my fingers and you only needed a small amount, once applied it gave me a lovely even coverage with a matte finish the colour matched my skin perfectly but it didn’t fully cover my pimples but it worked very well with concealer underneath, I also found that I wasn't oily by the end of the day and still felt like I still had a pretty good coverage which I don’t normally get. Overall I really liked this BB cream as it is a good sized tube and you only need such a small amount so it will last quite a while so I will defiantly keep using it. Thank you Garnier!

Tips: I found that I got the best results when I put a thin layer on all over left that to set for a few minutes and then added a little extra below my eyes and any imperfections.

Great coverage product

I have oily/combination skin, so I tried the oil-free BB cream.I found the product to be quite liquidy, this was a good thing though as it applied really smoothy and gave a really great, oil-free coverage. I applied a thin first layer and then applied one more layer which gave the perfect finish. It had a matte finish with a very slight/natural shine (not oily). It doesn't have much of a smell which I was happy with. I found by using this product, I only had to use a very small amount of powder over the top and it gave the desired look. The packaging was simple and overall I am happy with the product, I would purchase this myself. I have spoken to friends about the product who also use it and they are very happy with its coverage.

Tips: Apply a thin layer first and then build upon that.

Awesome BB Cream

What a great BB Cream. Have used the original BB cream and find the oil free BB cream to be far superior. The BB cream lasts all day and you don't get a sheen at all. Its fantastic. Great coverage, and consistency and easy to apply with just your fingers. I have sensitive skin and can suffer from eczema around my eyes and on my temple but dont react at all to this BB cream which is great. Cream definitely lives up to its claims and is great value for money. The only negative is the smell which is slightly chemically but once its on you can't smell it any longer. Would definitely recommend it to anyone!

Tips: For more coverage wait a couple of minutes and then apply a second coating.

From a BB Cream virgin...

My skin changes, sometimes its dry, sometimes absolutely normal due to health conditions. I also have a lot of freckles from over exposure to the sun.

Being a BB Cream virgin, I wasn't really sure what to expect, but thought I'd give it a try. I am quite tanned, more than fair, so opted for the medium tone, and found that it was a tad bit dark for me, and made me look a bit purplish, but it did minimise freckles a lot.

It was very easy to apply, just like a moisturiser, and wasn't as messy as I thought it would be. A little went a long way, and I'd imagine the product would last a fair while.

All in all, it does correct blemishes, covers well, and now I'm convinced to buy the light toned BB cream. I didn't notice much scent, which I don't mind, and found it great to use under a little blush. I'm sure it makes for perfect selfies that you don't need to do touch ups on as well.

I definitely will recommend to others, and am proud to say, one, BR has converted me...and two, Garnier has produced yet another great product!

Mummy Loves!

BB cream was just the thing I needed in my life :) I used this for a week straight. Soon as I got ready, all I need to do is my normal cleansing routine, rub on The BB Cream like a normal moisturiser (making sure I cover my red spots) then add Mascara and Im sorted for the day :) My makeup routine has never been so easy! Especially having a busy lifesytle and tending to my 3 month baby :) I loved how this product is easy to apply and very effective. Covered my imperfections (dark undereyes, red cheeks and T-zone. Gives my skin a matte finish which was a big change from the oily look my normal moisturiser gives me :) Just in a week I have noticed my skin is looking hydrated, less pores are visible and the reddness in my skin has calmed down. My friends and family have complimented me saying my skin is looking good and I now have a glow :) I give this product an A++, even has SPF15 which is a bonus!

Tips: I usually apply all over skin then add more on my imperfections (red cheeks and dark under yes).

Better than the rest

My skin has a mind of its own, and changes from oily to normal so I decided to go for the oil free BB Cream. I have been quite pleasantly surprised. The bottle is nice and slim bottle that fits into my already packed make up bag. Compared to previous BB Cream I have used it has really good coverage. The colour matched me perfectly and I didn't feel like my skin was all blocked up. It lasted all day and came off really easy with my normal wipes. I think this product is really worth the money.

Tips: The cream comes out really quickly and goes on smooth so don't squeeze too hard or you might have more than you need.

Excited to try, but not what I expected it to be

Upon opening the screw top lid, the liquid ran everywhere! All over the lid, hands... I didn't know how runny the formula would be. Otherwise, the packaging is sterile with a nozzle tip. I tried this first on my hand, as a sensitive skin precaution, and the colour was noticeably orange (medium shade). On my face, definitely orange as well, though a little less obvious. The smell isn't too much of an issue and the coverage was quite sheer for me, on the lower end of a BB cream coverage.

Tips: If you do decide to buy it, tilt the container upside down before opening!

fantastic BB cream!

A great BB cream that actually provides more than the bottle says it does! It goes on really smoothly and I actually used it in place of my foundation on the some days to test the coverage. I applied it both with my fingers on some days and a foundation sponge on others. It goes on easily, not too watery or creamy, but a perfect combo. I sometimes am prone to redness and this covers it perfectly and with a little powder over the top it looks as though I have foundation on. Normally my skin needs a powder top up during the day due to oil, but this product works well with my oily skin and less powder blotting was needed during the day, so it's great for oily skin. It stayed put all day doesn't tend to rub off once it's "pulled into" your skin. The tube and packaging is simple and eye catching and the small hole that you squeeze the cream out of means that you don't end up with more than you need. I used my normal moisturizer underneath and it still went on well over this. I would definitely recommend this to others and will switch to this one in the future myself!

Tips: Rub it into your face and allow to absorb and dry before finishing the look with some powder and blush, to use this product instead of foundation.
