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.

I think we have a winner here!

Ok so I love thhe skinny tube it comes in which make it extremely easy to carry around for touch ups during the day, there is no strong scent which is great! It is a liquid formula which dries matte on the skin. I usually have a dry skin type but love how this bb cream makes my skin look! Amazing coverage and the perfect colour I chose the medium shade which is perfect for me as a NC25 in MAC. This product goes on smoothly and you dont need much at all! I love that it lasts all day without looking shiny or patchy I will definitely be getting this product again! And this is definitely more for a yellow undertone/warm tone skin. Very very happy to have been introduced to this product

Tips: I dont even need a primer underneath and also do not need to set as it stays perfectly!

Garnier Oil Free BB Cream

Love love loved this, I'd already tried the 'Normal' skin and found it to be a bit too oily so this one was perfect. As expected, it went on smoothly and stayed on all day. I didn't get the sheen-look as I did with the other one. Moisturized really well also and the medium tone was a perfect match for me as well.

Tips: For the best and more natural results, apply with the Beauty Blender sponge or something similar. RRP is cheap as well so definitely worth every penny :) Hope you enjoy ladies, a good investment!

Miracle BB!

My fave BB cream. Have tried a few others and they don't get the coverage that this one does. You don't need a lot and it reduces blotchy redness without looking ghostly or feeling like you have a mud pack on all day. Added bonus of SPF 15 and it really is a little miracle in a tube.

10/10 Garnier Oil-Free BB Cream

Wow! A product that actually does what it says! I really wasn't expecting much from a BB cream but this product definitely ticks all the boxes. I have very large pores and find most foundations and especially powders don't hide them. Garnier BB cream smoothed straight over them and hid them (aswell as my red spots on my cheeks) very well. The smooth velvet touch made my skin feel like I wasn't wearing any makeup and the coverage was amazing. One coat was enough to hide my blemishes. The biggest bonus I found with this liquid gold was you only had to use a small amount to cover your face and neck. I love the fact that this product has spf 15 protection, it saves me time from applying my greasy sunscreen to my makeup routine. I am over the moon with my new oil-free BB cream from Garnier and have now got my friends using it too.

Tips: A small amount is all you need for complete coverage on your face and neck. Too much will make your face have the "wearing make-up look". This BB cream makes your skin look fresh and velvet smooth.

Really happy with this.

I had always heard BB Creams were like tinted moisturisers, so I haven't really jumped on the bandwagon. I wasn't too happy with the only other BB cream I've purchased, but was pleasantly surprised at this one!

I have oily-combination skin and am very pale. I found that the light was still a little too dark for me, but that's being pretty fussy. I think in Summer the colouring will be spot on.

It was really good at controlling oil - my face was less oily than usual, which was great as often I have to keep applying powder all day!

The best part was that it had great coverage, and it really evened out my skin tone. Add to that the fact that it was super easy to apply (no bothering with primer beforehand) it's definitely my new go-to! I also love my foundation I'm using at the moment, so I'll switch between the two - depending on whether I have the extra time it takes to apply my foundation.

Overall, very happy with this! Nice sized bottle too and you don't need heaps of it, so it should last a while.

Tips: Use two coats if you want it a bit thicker, but I found one was just perfect for me.

Just perfect!

Wow, i went into this with huge expectations as i have heard nothing but positivity about it. With applying i found it was very orange, but faded into a colour which matched my skin. The only downside was the very quick drying time. It was easy to apply as was liquid and i have combination skin (oily T-zone. After 7 hours the skin was barely there. It had very good coverage and covered as well as my revlon colourstay foundation. My freckles were mainly covered and my red/blotchy patches on my face were gone! The finish was matte which i really liked. I liked it alot compared to my maybelline bb cream which barely covers anything on my face, and i have to apply several layers to get any noticeable change in my face colour. The product states it reduces shine and is matte, reduces pores and imperfections, makes your skin glowy and even and i feel like it covers all of this and recommend this highly!!

Tips: You only need a small amount of product. It dries fast so apply little sections at a time. Recommend for oily skin!!

love this bb cream (light)

Extremely happy with this BB cream, it really surprised me how much well it covered and made an even skin tone. The color matched really well and I didn't find it oily or caused any breakouts. I would definetly use this as my everyday foundation. It was nice and light. I even had some compliments on how well my skin looked.

Tips: Apply a second layer of BB cream if you are wanting a full foundation look

Perfect skin in seconds!

I have tried many products over the years. This Oil-free BB Cream is defiantly one of my favorites. Its so easy to apply and it looks very natural. I have tried some of the other BB creams too, but the oil fee one is the best. I love that you get so much of it as well!

Tips: A little goes a long way. Don't pile too much on!

It's oil-right with me!

This product is my holy grail BB cream product. I haven't tried any other BB creams (except the other Garnier ones) and I don't think I ever will!

I like the tube. It's long and thin and fits (almost) perfectly in my lipstick holder in my makeup stand. It also holds less than the other tubes of BB cream from Garnier, but I find that it lasts a lot longer and you need a lot less of it compared to the others.

The formula is super runny, so you can store it any which way you want, but if you store it on the lid, make sure you are super careful when you open it because it will be like a little explosion! There is also a chemical smell to it, I don't always notice it, but I can feel it if it gets a little too close to my eyes.

I use a stippling brush to get this bad boy on, but you can use your fingers and apply it like a moisturizer, or a blending sponge, or whatever is in your arsenal! It gives off a light coverage, I find I can still see some bits of red on my cheeks, but foundation covers it almost immediately, and I use a green red reducing primer underneath so it helps out too.

This stuff lasts (on me) all day set with a powder or not, and it's fabulous. It sets matte-ish, actually matches my skin tone and is just generally nice to wear. My skin looks flawless if I wear this, which I do whenever I wear make up. I don't even use as much foundation as I would with this stuff underneath. It's that freakin' good.

I don't wear makeup often, so a whole tube lasted me a good year(ish). I don't need to buy another as I have a spare, but I will buy this again in future because I LOVE it!

Love it!

My biggest apprehension about this product was scent - I've previously tried a Garnier BB Cream and it made my eye's water intensely (So I looked like I was bawling my eyes out - tear tracks and all) but I was pleasantly surprised by how lightly scented it was, and it didn't make my eyes water at all, bonus!!

I used my fingers to put it on, dotting it on first and then just working it around my face just like my moisturiser, which was super easy and I found that a little went a long way. The coverage was good, but then my skin is fairly good with no pimples (just freckles and rosy cheeks!) and it lasted all of my day off, though I found it a little bit too light for work the second day (I'm a Restaurant Manager) and it faded part-way through shift, though I was doing a fair bit of leg work so I'm not surprised. It looked natural on my face with a matte finish, and I had compliments from my partner (who doesn't usually compliment - he's all tattoo'd, bearded, and funny rather then sweet) that I looked lovely with no makeup on, and he didn't believe I was wearing anything until I wiped it off, so that's a bonus! I'm impressed with how my skin feels - normally after a day in makeup it feels a bit heavy, but my skin feels light and fresh so also a good thing.

The packaging was nice, eye catching, and I thought the little tube it came in was uber cute, and it's pretty price effective so I'd buy it again for day wear.

All in all, I rather like this product and am planning on buying it again in the future for day wear - specially if I get more of those rare compliments!

Tips: Maybe try it with a powder finish for light evening wear!
