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.

LOVE Garnier miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream

I love Garnier BB Cream! I have been using it now for going on 4 years. I normally use the standard one and have recommended it to several friends and family and clients (makeup) and have them recommend it to others too after trying it! Now with the oil free, sensitive skin, anti ageing versions there is something for literally EVERY woman! It is great for people with problem skin, mums with no time or energy for makeup application, ladies who don't like wearing foundation because they don't like the weight and feel of it on their skin. I even have my mum (63) wearing it! And my sister 23 who has had problems with severe acne since her mid teens using it too!

BB Cream is easy to use I just apply a little with my hands ten minutes after my moisturiser. It has a very subtle light fragrance which a big plus for me as I have an aversion to strong fragrances. BB Cream does exactly what it says it provides a light lovely coverage whilst giving a little camouflage from any little imperfections and the difference to my complexion is slight and subtle but definitely beautiful! I have never had so many comments about the lovely glow to my complexion - even my husband notices when I'm wearing it or not! And it's lasts all day long. The oil free BB cream is more of a fluid and is a lot runnier than the standard cream. This is excellent for oily skin types you just have to be careful dispensing it is all! The oil free also comes in a significantly smaller tube which is a bit disappointing but that is no doubt due to being a more expensive formula. The Oil free still goes an extremely long way as with the standard cream - you really do only need a little bit! It has the same coverage and leaves your skin feeling and looking great without any greasy shiny patches!

My normal tube lasts me months and months as I don't wear it every day probably 2-3 out of seven but I know people who use it every day and still get a lot out of thier tubes. The smaller tubes of oil free not so much BUT this is still an economical product size as a my sister the poor student will attest to!

I CANNOT say enough fantastic things about this product line! It ticks all the boxes for me: ~quick and easy to use -I'm a mum of 3 under 5 I have no time and no hands to do anything! ~economical - price is great, it's available in supermarket and it lasts ages! ~ great feeling product - I'm a woman who doesn't like the weight of most foundations on my skin but this product does the trick and for going out I just add a little powder to set it and maybe some concealer if needed for trouble spots and I have a beautiful finish on my skin that is gorgeous cover and yet so light and lasts all day all night! ~SPF - brilliant for a bit of protection!

I LOVE it and recommend it to EVERYONE - It's as close to a miracle in a tube that you can get!

Tips: I use mine with a little concealer (for any extra coverage required for under my eyes) and set it with powder for a natural light foundation when going out.

Everyday perfection

For this review I had asked for the Medium colour, but have also used the Light colour previously. I love this product, it covers all my imperfections and debags those under eyes! I also wear it with foundation over the top and the coverage lasts all day with or without foundation. It is very reasonably priced in the supermarket since you dont need to use heaps to get the look you want which means it lasts a long time. Because I have pretty fair skin I would prefer to stay with the Light shade but have found that I am able to use the Medium since the foundation helps even out the colouring on my neck and chest.

Tips: If you have fair skin, stick with the Light colour for safety even if you want to look a little browner otherwise you will use heaps on your neck/chest to TRY make the colour look realistic

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-free

Was super excited to try this BB cream. I've heard a lot of great things about it.

I have struggled in the past to find a BB cream that is the right shade, hydrates, reduces the appearance of pores, light, good coverage, non-cakey, help control oil and affordable. I think Garnier have hit the nail on the head with this product.

Its perfect. I have tried a few BB cream and found that they all had pros and cons, were with this BB cream its all pros in my eyes. I had a few friends comment on my skin and asked what I was doing different, they were shocked when I told them it was BB cream.

I have been wearing this everyday to work. No need for any touch ups, stays on and looks great. I also find this great as a makeup primer for when I'm going out at night. Foundation sets wonderfully to it and keeps it flawless. It truly is a beautiful product. A must have in your makeup bags ladies.

Tips: I suggest applying with a stipple brush. I found it gave me better coverage than using my fingers.

Garnia oil free BB cream.

I had great expectations for this product, and I was wrapped to have these realised! What a fantastic product. The cream scent wasn't overpowering and was so smooth to apply. I was especially impressed with how well it covered my redness. It lasted all day amazingly as I went for a walk and did our gardening. It ticked all the boxes for me and I will definitely continue to use. It's a great product for a busy mum on the run.

Tips: The only slight thing I had a problem with was that as I put the cream down (without lid) to apply it dripped out, so a tad bit messy in that respect.

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Oil free

I love this product, i have fair skin with reddish cheeks and this is a perfect product to cover,stay light and fresh feeling on the face. this BB is perfect texture to just apply like moisturizer - Pea size amount in palms and just apply to face and is super quick and easy to get perfect results. I didn't find there was much fragrance which is a good thing as it is going on the face. The coverage is amazing i swear by this product for full fresh coverage all day long. the fact it is oil free is even better and still protected with SPF15. love the packaging and is very appealing and great design to just slip into make up case or purse :). i would defiantly recommend this product i am so happy i have gone from using 4 products to achieve full day coverage to 2 BB and my loose powder with bronze tones :)

Tips: Buy this product!!!! I have never used anything that makes me feel so free! i do suggest follow instruction on if you prefer the more matte look to apply to trouble areas twice, i do with my cheeks just to tone down the redness. but defiantly a miracle BB Cream :)

Light feeling and great coverage

Packaged in a tall squeeze tube with a pointed nozzle it's easy to get product out and great for traveling with, however I did notice some leakage from the tip but nothing major. The coverage is really good and had no issues covering old acne scaring and redness feels very light on my skin and dries down to a natural matte finish. I applied the product using a variety of methods (flat top kabuki, beauty blender, fingers and stippling brush) and all applied the product awesomely, the beauty blender applied the product sheerly though so keep that in mind. I really enjoyed this product and I'll defiantly be re-purchasing when I run out!

Tips: Applied best without primer, I found that with primer it went on a bit streaky

Great Foundation Alternative

I was pleasantly surprised when trying this product out as I wear foundation everyday and like full coverage, this product gave full coverage without feeling heavy or looking like I had foundation on, it also covers imperfections while still leaving the skin looking and feeling fresh. This BB cream has a matte finish and stays on all day, it does not need reapplied, it goes on smoothly and evenly. You only need a small amount as due to the consistency a little goes a long way, the more you use though the darker it will be so it depends on your skin tone, I have very fair skin so only required a small amount. I have sensitive / dry and oily skin all in one so I found this a great product, it did not irritate my skin yet it hydrated & hid the shine perfectly. This product is great value for the money and easily accessible being able to purchase at supermarkets and department stores etc. The packaging was great, it explained exactly what the product would do as well as being eye-catching, it will be easy to spot when going to purchase again. This BB Cream has a very light/runny consistency so I recommend storing it upside down as it can make the cap quite messy. I will definitely keep using this BB Cream as it is quick and easy to apply, especially for if you are in a rush just put some on, some mascara and lipstick and you are off.

Tips: For a fuller coverage put a powder foundation on over top, or even just powder. Due to the light/runny consistency store the tube upside down so it does not end up all in the cap.

My new number one makeup product

I received my product in the post just before I flew out to Aussie last week and I'm so glad I got it - it certainly came with me! I will be using it everyday now. Careful when you squeeze it out as you don't need a lot. It seems quite thick when you put it on but I just applied it with my hands and just made sure I covered my whole face/neck, then allowed it a few minutes to set. I find it covers my acne really well, as well as pigmentation and it lasts so well! Usually I feel like make-up starts to slide off my face after a few hours, but this still looks good eight hours later! A definite winner and quite different to other BB creams that I have tried - in that it's coverage is a lot better and you really don't need to then apply other foundation on it. I love that you can wear it by itself, or I wore it on a night out with my powder over the top. Really happy with this product - especially since it has SPF in it too.

Tips: You don't need a lot, not like a normal foundation, so don't be too gung-ho with it, especially at first.

Loved it :)

I tried out the Oily/combo skin type cream as my skin is typically quite oily and prone to breakouts. I also get dermatitis on my face at times. I found this cream had a really good consistancy, although it did come out really quickly when I first used it. It spread really easily and gave an even coverage. I simply applied it with my fingers, as I would apply moisturiser, although I dont really know how to apply most of my makeup so I have no idea if thats what I am supposed to do :) I didnt notice any particular smell to this cream which I really enjoyed as I find lots of moisturisers and makeup have overpowering fragences (especially as I am senstive to smells due to medical issues). I wore this for the first time to the pub to have a few drinks and play pool, and it lasted much longer then anyother makeup I have ever used. The only thing I absolutely love is simply that its not obvious, most foundations or makeup look exceptionally obvious on me due to my skin tone so I dont tend to wear makeup very often. I quite liked the packaging of this product, although I personally would never be able to rationalise the purchase of it, even though it is wellpriced, simply due to being a student. I would definately recommend this product to all my friends, I absolutely loved it.

Tips: Be careful when opening the tube for the first time, as it comes out very quickly.

Garnier miracle skin protector bb cream oil free

I love Garnier miracle protector bb cream, light. It is fantastic! It feels like you are wearing air and it goes on so softly and smoothly. It is a great base for your make up and makes you look flawless! I also like how it blends in so easily and it does not make your skin greasy. My 18 year old daughter has tried it and loves it also. We have recommended it to all our friends and family. It hydrates your skin beautifully, covers any redness, is light to wear and makes your skin look alive. It comes in different combinations for different ages and skin types. Also different colors. So try it, you won't be sorry. We love it.

Tips: Squeeze softly the first time as it comes out fast. It is a thin liquid rather than thick like some of the other bb creams.
