Garnier Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-Free Review

So I have very combination skin, (depending on the time of the month i can be very oily). I found the product to be nice and cream (although a little thin for my liking) but very easy to use.I just used my fingers. No ugly lines ect are left and is absorbed nicely. I used the bb on its own and loved the natural matte finish it gave, so didn't use any foundation. I only had to apply once and it lasted through out the day. I would definitely use it again. :)

So I have used this particular brand BB cream a few years back and wasn't overly happy with it. I can't even remember now what I didn't like about like about it, but I gave it to my sister and moved on to another brand. When the opportunity came up to trial this product I thought I would give it another shot and I am glad I did! I have had people commenting on my skin and how great it looks. I have been wearing it to work instead of foundation and find that it gives me the coverage I need, without being too 'cakey' or thick. It took me a while to figure out the best way to apply and wear it. First I tried it with a sponge, but decided it was better applying with just my fingers. I have worn it by itself, with powder and bronzer and today just with bronzer. I find it works however YOU want it to! I haven't felt greasy throughout the day like I have at times when wearing foundation. All in all, I am really happy with this BB cream and would definitely use it again and recommend to anyone. Thanks for letting me trial this product!!

I was excited to get this product, as previously I have tried and enjoyed Garnier products. However, this exceeded my expectations. The first thing I noticed about it was that it stayed on all day! This was including through exercising and sweating, it was still just as good as earlier in the day. My skin gets quite oily in some areas but dry in others, and I found this product to keep the oily areas at bay. However, some of my drier areas did look drier after application, but with some moisturizer put on prior, I didn't have any more problems Originally when I first took it out to apply with my fingers the product was quite runny. However, when applied to my face, I found the product to appear as a powder, which allowed my skin to breathe. As my skin can get sensitive to smells, the lack of smell that I found, really was appealing to my needs. Unlike most other BB Creams that I have tried, the packaging was long and slender which looked very chic. Unfortunately though this seems to mean that the cream comes out readily with just the slightest touch and I ended up pushing a little too hard the first time I used it. Using this product I have found that my face looks evenly toned, and I do not have the shine that some other products produce. It felt as though I had nothing on my face yet lasted all day without reapplication. I am a BB Cream addict and use it daily instead of using foundations which cause me to break out and this product has proven to be one of the best I have found. I would recommend this to a friend as a replacement for foundation that looks and feels good!

I have the shade medium and overall I really enjoy using the product. It has a very watery consistency which I actually love. It has great coverage yet a very light natural feel. I applied the bb cream after moisturizing and used my real techniques expert face brush with a touch of blush and mascara for an effortless natural look. It blended well and had a very soft matte finish that lasted all day without getting shiny which is great as my usual foundations tend to slip off my face after 7 hours yet mine lasted a good 9 hours at least! I did try using a setting powder over the top to see what it looked like but found it looked too cakey and doesn't really need it anyway. The only down side was that it was a bit orangey for my skin tone so had to blend my neck in with a bit of bronzer hence why I didn't give it a full 5 stars. I will however be purchasing the light shade to see if that may be a better fit for me.

This product would have been more suited to try and review in summer because of the SPF in the BB cream. However, I do feel like the product gave my skin a healthy glow and was really easy to blend into my skin. I always set my foundation or BB creams with a powder because my face is quite oily. But with this product my face stayed matte for much of the day which I found to be really great.

Overall this product was great and I would recommend it for anyone who suffers with quite oily skin and someone who likes quite a sheer coverage.

This product does give a masque-like appearance when first applied, but after a few minutes the colour seems to settle in to give a more natural look. I found it did most of what the packet promised – it seemed to shrink my pores, it covered redness, it stopped a shiny nose and gave my skin a smooth texture and even appearance while still looking relatively natural. Blemishes such as spots were minimised but I still had to use a bit of concealer to hide them completely. And it really did last all day long! I had the idea it would act like a tinted moisturiser and perhaps be a little too greasy for my skin but the ingredients act like a clay masque soaking up excess oil – perhaps a little too much so because I had to use moisturiser underneath on my cheeks to counterbalance the drying effect. The price is extremely reasonable for the size of the tube and it does what more expensive creams claim to do. Also liked that I could easily fit the slim tube into my makeup bag.

This product is fantastic. I struggle with a super oily T zone while the rest of my face is sometimes dry. Applying the BB cream after cleansing in place of a foundation will keep the oil at bay until the evening. It's easy to apply and blends well, leaving a radiant matte finish that gives my skin a healthy glow. It's relatively cheap and only a small amount is needed, making it well worth the money. It's packaging is quite bland but when the product itself is so great who really cares! This BB cream evened out my blotchy skin tone and, when combined with powder, provided a full face coverage that lasted all day. I would definitely recommend this to anyone not keen on a heavy foundation but who still needs some coverage.

I really enjoyed this BB cream, the coverage was exactly what I needed. The consistency was alright, it was just a little runny. The packaging was also nice, just a bit dodgy on how hard it was to get out the amount I needed. My face did feel rather oily/ greasy at points of the day, but that could just be my skin.

I really like this product as I do suffer from oiliness around the T-Zone. I dont like to wear foundation so this is fantastic as it lets your skin breathe while giving you a nice glow with SPF and amazing minerals that correct the oiliness too. I think it is fantastic. I feel really good wearing the BB cream knowing it is doing so much. I will keep using this product and it will be interesting to see if it delivers what it says it does with reduced size of pores and reduction of imperfections. But I need more time for that. Highly recommend this product.

I have tried quite a few bb creams and I will admit garnier miracle skin perfector is by far the best yet. Not only did it give me more coverage than the rest it felt light so I didn't feel caked with make up . The other thing I like is how natural it looks and it lasts all day. So if you wanting a nice natural look with great coverage then Garnier miracle skin perfecter is the one to use.
