Garnier Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-Free Review

This BB has me stuck on the fence with not a lot to love about it. I've tried Garnier BB's before and found the colour is always wrong, and unfortunately I had that with this one too, after a year of not using this brand I thought they might have sorted this out. It was far too dark in colour to be a light, so will be sticking to my korean BB for now, and get this one back out in the summer once I some colour on my skin. The formula was very runny so I found that when you squeezed it out of the tube a lot came out and when that colour is wrong having too much product doesn't help. I did really like the thin tube it came in tho it was handy to store, not taking up much room. I did however like how the formula went on with my beauty blender sponge, it went on really smooth and looked really nice.

I was pleasantly surprised by this Garnier BB cream! I thought that it wouldn't provide very good coverage given that it is a BB cream, but it provided me with a very nice matte finish- just like it said it would. I don't think it reduced imperfections to the same extent as my Clinique foundation, but I expected that, and otherwise it was a very good product! I definitely noticed that it didn't make my skin oily, and I actually got a few comments (by people who didn't realise I was trialling the product) about how good my skin looked! The SPF 15 is a definite bonus, and although I have quite fair skin and the BB cream only comes in two shades, it matched my skintone perfectly. I will definitely continue to use this cream!

I used the BB Cream for one week, as a foundation I would say it is nice for everyday wear. On the first day I noticed that I did not put enough on for a good coverage as I have terrible skin. For a nice light day look it was great and I did feel that my skin was glowing but this was with a medium amount used.

On the first day that I used this product a few people at work asked if I was feeling ok as my skin looked very pale, I was feeling fine so I think with a little bit more coverage it would be better.

I like the coverage this gave me but unfortunately I didn't like the feel of it on my skin. I had a few spots at the time of testing and it didn't seem to help them. I think I needed the protection of a separate moisturiser before using the BB cream.

I revived my 3 days ago and i really enjoyed using it. The packaging is cute, easy to carry in my handbag for touch-ups. It also has a good price for the quality. This BB cream was super easy to apply with my fingers and flat top kabuki brush, it applied really good coverage and left a smooth almost flawless finish. The only thing i didn't enjoy about this BB cream is it made me break out. When i run out i will be repurchasing this product i really enjoy using it for a no makeup/makeup day and its so natural and light but still gives a good coverage.

This BB cream was lovely to use, it is more liquid then other BB creams i have tried, more like liquid foundation. The coverage was light but made my skin feel really soft and it covered my red skin well. It lasted for half of the day and i think it would have lasted longer if i had put powder on top.

what an awesome product! I have an oily skin and this cream is fabulous for oily skin. this cream is easy to apply and leaves mate and even toned skin, with full coverage. my pores looked smaller after one application. I did not smell any fragrance. product lasts all day. The packaging is alright but the box was too big, which makes it disappointing when you see the size of the product compared to it. The product did everything it claimed. Very happy with it! Totally worth the money and totally recommend it!!

So glad that this is a full size product as I'm using it regularly :)

I'm very pale and was a little concerned when I took it out of the box that it might be too dark but it's turned out to be perfect.

It rubs in smoothly and cleanly and feels nice - like moisturiser. Sometimes foundation/concealers give me acne but no problems so far with this!

I was rather septicle being a "mac" user trialing a "supermarket brand" however I am beyond pleasently surprised! Firstly my worry was colour - I am quite fair so tend to like a bit of colour from my foundation.. without looking like I rolled in doritos so not being able to try the colour first would put me off. "Light" was perfect though. Secondly I tend to like a suey finish overy matte but this isn't too matte and doesn't leave a powering look that I thought it could. Acne/ scar coverage wasn't great and I still needed to use a concealer. Reduces pores and imperfections - I think it would take a month to notice difference. I normally find foundations with spf to feel thick on my face but this didn't leave any heaviness at all. Over all I loved it and would use again!

My skin in normal to oily and I tend to use high coverage foundations like double wear as have rosé checks. I tend to us a BB cream on a Sunday or a day I don’t have a lot going on. I have used 1 other BB cream, which I did like but didn’t give enough coverage. The consistency of the Garnier BB cream coming out of the bottle was watery and would always come running out when I would open the bottle which was a down fall as the cap would get messy. It was so easy to apply I would either rub it In with my hands if I was I a rush but if you do make sure you give it a good rub in as It can be show lines if you don’t. I would also use my foundation stipple brush, which gave such a nice finish. I didn’t really notice a fragrance, which is good as I cant stand things that smell that I put on my face. Coverage is sheer to medium again if you do put a bit on it does build obviously not to a foundation coverage but I was pleased with the coverage it is just as I would expect for a BB cream. The product lasted all day but I was wearing it on my ‘no make up day haha’ so didn’t notice too much about the longevity. The packaging is nice but I really didn’t like to bottle as I said every time I opened it the product would come squirting out so a pump would have been better. The results where a good I really did enjoy getting up In the morning applying this in less than 30 seconds put on mascara and lip balm on and I was ready for the day. I had no problem with the coverage and overall I think it is a good product and does what it says it does I would consider re purchasing.
