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.

Garnier Miracle cream oil free spf 15 is great.

I reviewed the Combination to oily skin - medium. I usually have a very sensitive skin and cannot just use any products. Using this BB cream i didn't have that problem. I could wear it without any skin reaction.

I found the BB cream to be a bit watery. It wasn't really an issue, because it was still smooth and easy to apply. I normally just apply it with my finger and spread all over my face. I used the BB cream as a base and had to use my normal foundation as well. The two together actually makes my make-up look flawless. I have a different BB cream which i used before the BB cream and must say the Garnier BB applies much smoother and has better coverage.

The tube is very compact and fit in my make-up bag, along with my other make-up. It is definitely worth the money and does what it says. After two weeks of review, i would definitely continue, and buy this BB cream in the future as i believe it worth the buy.

Tips: You need to just be careful when you open it and make sure its closed correctly.

fantastic coverage

I naturally have some light freckles and this keys them show through but evens out my skin tone without being too thick or gloopy. I had the original formulation and the oil free is a million times better for me. I blends super well and goes on creamy. I'd say it's a tiny bit chemical scented but it goes away within moments. It works incredibly well as a primer of sorts under foundation and on its own gives light coverage. Skims blemishes but didn't cover them very well. Adding a touch of concealer helped.

Tips: Add a second light coat for a more matte finish. Just add a small amount of concealer of you have some small blemishes.

Looking Great

It's nice to be told your skins looking great - even when you are stressed and tired. Garnier BB Cream is so easy to apply, I use my fingers, it's so light and creamy, I do like a medium coverage and this is perfect, because I am oily I do still need to touch up during the day. Medium for me is a little dark - so I custom blend with some of the light shade, into a little plastic pump bottle. I'm a fan and have also converted friends from more expensive foundation.

Tips: Buy two shades if you feel the light is too pale or the medium is too dark, KMart and the Warehouse have specials on that make it the perfect bargain buy.

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-free

To be honest I really wasn't sure what it was at all, so wasn't sure what to expect. I even had to Google what is was. At first because of my skin being sensitive I was a little apprehensive and i wasn't sure that the colour would work for me, Was i pleasantly surprised when I put it on! It was easy to apply and even gave my skin a glow, was light and smooth to apply. I have pigmentation and was so surprised at how well it covered up my uneven skin tone. Every day I put on foundation, but thought Id test how it lasted without putting anything else on my face, again I was so surprised at how well it lasted. There isn't any smell to it, which is a plus for me as I'm picky with the way things smell. My skin felt light and it seemed to stop my skin from getting all oily as it was normally be at the end of each day. The packaging made it easy to use, my only one complaint is that because of the cream being so light I had to turn it upside down before i took the lid off out of fear it would run out and drip on the carpet. Having SPF 15 in it is a huge bonus as I'm always conscience about having sunblock not to darken pigmentation and age spots. So overall I loved this product, and it did what it said it would do.

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.

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.

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).

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.

Wow I'm a Convertor

This is my second attempt to submit this review on Garnier BB Cream. I have heard a lot of people talk about BB cream but it is a product I have never used. I have only ever used foundation that was on special at the time and my much loved Thin Lizzy on top. Since trying BB cream OMG it is amazing and I find I no longer need to use my Thin Lizzy on top as the evenness and the complete coverage is amazing as is the subtle scent that is no way overpowering. I thought on the first time i used this product I found it to be powdery on application but within minutes it looked great and does not at all portray powdery look and wow it stays on all day looking great. I have had many people come up to me saying how good I am looking - thanks Garnier BB cream.

Tips: For a great evening look use Garnier BB cream on well moisturised skin and use Thin Lizzy on top with good emphasis on Thin Lizzy as cheek bronzer.
