This product is such a goodie. I have oily acne prone skin that also gets dry. This makes getting foundations tough. It goes on easily, I use a brush or sponge & feels light & breathable when on. It blends well & does have a velvety matt finish. The coverage is light though? It does say you can layer it up for fuller coverage if you want to.

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.

Lovely light daily wear.
Tips: To boost it's staying power, using a primer really helps, although I suspect this interferes with it's improving qualities.

Everyday essential
This product is perfect for combo to dry skin. I have recently fallen back in love with this product as the seasons grow colder and I'm more prone to dry skin. It great for light daily wear and doesn't cling to any dry patches I have, yet still light enough that I don't feel like it clogs my pores. Would recommend.
Tips: Do not mix with moisturiser as I have found the consistency changes.

my preferred bb cream from this brand
i find this longer wearing with less shine that the other bb creams from garnier. my skin is normal/dry and this is easy to set and gives a nice natural finish. I'm quite pale so i try not to use too much as it can oxidise
Tips: use a setting powder +spray for a longer wearing look.

BB be mine :)
I have found this the best of the BB creams available in supermarkets. I am all for products that serve several functions at once and I love the fact that I only need one product to moisturise my skin, protect my skin from the sun (well its a start) and make it look better - adding colour and reducing shine. At the moment this is top of my list of reasonably priced tinted moisturisers.

BB cream
I love this BB cream. When I am feeling lazy or don't want a full cake face, it is my go to, it'll replace my foundation and provides great coverage. When I am doing a full face I will apply it under my foundation just to get that extra even coverage. It's a nice light cream and doesn't feel heavy at all, and provides a great tint to my face!

BB Cream
This BB cream is probably the best of the bunch you can pick up in supermarkets/warehouse. It provides great day wear coverage however I have found if I don't use primer or moisturiser beforehand it does get a bit dry & flakey. I probably wouldn't use it as a moisturiser by itself. WANING : product is quite runny so make sure you are careful when opening the cap or there will be a BB cream explosion.
Tips: Use a primer beforehand or have a moisture spray on hand through the day to touch up and prevent flaking/drying out

a natural look
I purchased Garnier BB light on a whim whilst shopping at Countdown supermarket. This was the 1st BB Cream I have bought so was super excited to get home and give it a try. On opening the cream I was suprised to see how nice the colour was and the consistency was very light. I suffer from dry, sensitive skin so I have to be very careful with what I can use. Using my fingertips, it was quick and easy to apply and it felt lovely on my skin. The results were amazing. My skin not only felt smooth and silky but it looked healthy and gave a natural finish. I would definitely buy this again.
Tips: You only need a small amount, don't over apply or it could feel heavy and because a lot is not needed, it would be a waste of product.

Love/hate relationship
When I first apply the product, I love it. Makes my skin look smooth, fresh and natural. However this BB cream oxidises through out the day leaving it with an orangey colour. They need to make lighter shades also because I have to put a lighter powder over this for it to match my reasonably pale skin.

Not 100% convinced
I finally gave in and decided to try BB creams. Having used foundations forever it was a bit different for me using something that didn't give as much coverage. I then started to use it as a primer under my make up which gave me a more desired look. I would recommend this product to girls staring out with make up as its a great and easy way to learn application techniques.
Tips: Keep it light the more you apply the more cakey it will look.

For a BB that is 'drug store' branded this is the best I have tried. I first tried the other oil free one but that made my skin compensate with oil itself - so this one was better in the long run and also better than the other with SPF in it. I now stick with a moisturiser with SPF and then BB if that's what I'm going with.
