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 Skin Perfector BB Cream

This was my first time using this and i have to say I loved it. I don't use anything like this on a daily basis anymore so was a bit out of practice but i found it easy to apply, it felt nice on my skin, and i noticed my skin looked even and not patchy. My skin also feels softer and smoother after I've taken it off. Overall I'd have to say i do like it and so far it seems to be doing what it's meant to.

Tips: I found it went on better if I applied it immediately after I cleansed my skin

A decent BB cream!

I typically use asian BB creams as they tend to work better with my colouring (NC25-30) so I was very interested in trialling this Bb cream as I could buy it locally without the shipping wait! It is packaged in a sturdy slim tube with a precision tip applicator so it is easy to get just the right amount. I loved that this is oil-free as my past BB cream experiences have been a bit varied and some have not lasted as long as I'd like as I get oily patches on my forehead and just above my chin.

First off, I chose the light shade which matched quite well to my light-medium asian skin, once applied I could barely tell I was wearing anything except that my skin tone was smoother and imperfections were way less noticeable. It didn't need to oxidise on the skin unlike some BB creams which is a huge bonus as I didn't have to wait to go out and it didn't have the greyish tone which the BB creams from Asia usually give me when I first apply. It blended in nicely and I would say the finish is a light-medium coverage.

It did last most of the day with only a few patches disappearing. Overall, a lovely BB cream which is perfect for the days you want a little bit a coverage without creating the full makeup face.

Tips: I like to use a powder to set the BB cream and to make it last longer.

Garnier BB Cream Oil-free SPF 15 - Warm shade

I was really excited to receive this product! I've been looking for a 'Tinted moisturiser' that actually keeps your skin feeling soft and moist. And sure enough, it worked! I've also noticed over the past week that my skin feels smoother, not irritable and even better no pimples (or maybe i'm having a good week?!). The packaging is great and fits nicely into my make up bag. You really don't need much for your face but beware... it is quite a runny consistency compared to your classic moisturiser or foundation. My warm shade was slightly too light for my skin tone which means it may suit my skin tone later during the winter months or I can easily use a bronzer on top to darken it up a little. Not too sure what the price point is on this product but would be happy to pay $20-30 for it. My recommendation to Garnier: Please bring out another colour shade in a warmer/darker tone.

Tips: If you don't have a concealer, this works great under your foundation for extra coverage!

Garnier BB Cream Oil-Free SPF 15 - Light

This is the first time i have ever used a BB Cream and i love it ! The colour is great for my skin tone and provides a great matte finish, coverage was just right for a light make up day or great for underneath foundation, covers up redness perfectly ! I have noticed improvements in my skin since using this BB cream ! it does everything is says ! I first used this BB Cream on its own for a day to test out its wear and i was pleasantly surprised, although a light coverage it stayed on all day, didnt move off my skin once it was set ( I was worried about the runny texture). When over the next few days i tried this out underneath my regular foundation and it worked amazingly, i found it dramatically improved the length of time my foundation stayed perfect for and just made it look so much better on my skin ! Overall i love this BB Cream will definitely continue use !

Tips: The product is very runny, open with caution.. it goes everywhere ! Also you dont need much, with this product a little goes a long way, but if needed coverage a second coat is very effective !

Pros and cons...

When I first received this product, I thought the packaging was nice and the product was in a well designed bottle type thing. But, the first time I opened the product, I found that it was very runny and spilt everywhere which was a bit annoying. Now that I am aware of the consistency I don't spill it but it is very liquid like for a bb cream. I have found though, that the very liquid like consistency makes it easy to blend and spread product over my face without it all building up in one spot. I also don't use as much! The coverage is really good for a be cream and the colour is pretty nice too, just got a bit if orange undertones, but once blended out, looks fine. The finish is really nice and dewy which is a nice change up for me because previous bb creams I have used haven't given this nice finish. I have found that this product has not broken me out and has not left my face feeling extra oily. I have also not had as much of an issue with shine throughout the day which is awesome! I think the "oil-free" qualities in this are truly worthwhile. I have found that it maintains good coverage for most of the day and the finish of the product on the face has not altered much after a days wear. All in all I am pretty impressed, but the consistency really annoys me, but otherwise highly recommended!

Tips: Apply product to back if hand then apply in small amounts to face to help create even coverage and colour. Beware of the extremely liquidy consistency as it is hard to control:P

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-free S

The colour was a good match with my skin tone and went on easily with great coverage. The product was rather runny when it came out of the tube and often too much spurted out which was a waste. It was easily applied and was light to the touch without my skin feeling as though it had anything on. I was pleased with how long it lasted on my face especially on my nose which is usually the first to go with other products I've tried. There weren't any adverse effects such as dryness or breakouts. I'd definitely look out for this in future when I need a replacement.

Tips: Be very careful when squeezing the tube!

Oil-free BB ceam

Firstly I'd like to say that I usually have normal skin but since having my son a month ago I have had oily skin, which is why I opted to test this particular BB cream. I found this BB Cream really nice, easy application(I just rubbed into my face using my hands)it is also a good consistency. Good coverage and even tone Natural look Light feel with a matte look finish (unlike the anti-ageing one which I found really thick) For me, application did not last all day and had to touch up by the afternoon. I like how this product has a twist top lid because if you have it in your handbag the lid won't just pop open like some other types.

I would definitely recommend this to friends as this didn't make my pores feel blocked and I found that it really made my skin less oily then it normally is (somehow!) and I think its really good quality!! :)

Tips: Start small and add more as needed, don't put too much on at once.

Garner oil free bb cream

I really enjoyed this bb cream. I would definitely buy again. Good coverage and not sticky or too shiny. I have had bb creams before and wasn't too fussed but I will continue to use this and potentially buy it again. I got medium and it was the perfect colour for my beige /yellow skin, LOVE IT! You also don't have to use too much so I think it will last a long time! The packaging looks like other garnier products, and I found there to be no distinctive smell. Was silky on my fingers and didn't leave a lot of mess to wash off afterwards

Tips: I used this under bronzer and over concealer for an every day coverage. Was really great and much lighter than my usual foundation.

A nice product

I am 45 with very oily t zone and normal skin everywhere else, and I have been using the BB cream in oil free in fair. The colour wasn't the perfect match for me but looked natural after working it into my skin.

I product packaging is good. I'm not a package girl so as long as it's functional I really care if it looks pretty or not. The directions were clear and the product was easy to access with the tube it came in. I did have to keep in mind the product is quite runny and it was easy to get way to much product. Had it sort after the first couple of uses. I didn't notice any smell.

I used this product every day and used directly on the skin as well as over a primer. I found the product work well either way. I tried applying it with a beauty blender, fingers and buffing brush. I found the beauty blender made a more natural looking application but it did't last as long as with the brush or fingers. However if I set it with my powder it lasted longer. After trying it all I preferred to apply with fingers as you could build it up I areas that might need more attention.

I didn't settled I my fine lines but didn't make my skin appear as smooth as my other BB cream but it did an ok job. It hold back my oil which I have found a very tuff thing to do. It lasted about 6 hours before the oil came through and I was amazed at that has my oil would normally come through my foundation and my other BB cream.

Overall I found the product easy to use it I was amazed at how well it held back my oil. I would set with a powder on your more oily areas for a long wear time. I would buy this again and recommednd to a friend with oily skin.

Tips: Set with a powder for a longer wear time.

awesome!

my skins usually quite oily, usually id use a moisteriser and I jst put my foundation over tht n it works fine, until now the bb cream from garnier is so good! will definitely be buying it when my trial runs out, it stays put all day I put it straight on to my face and didnt bother moisturising before hand. its easy to apply and a little bit goes a long way the only beef I have is that the colour can get a bit orange if your not carefull.

Tips: a little goes a long way use less than you think then build it up ogherwise you will look like an oompa loompa.
