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.

Beyond Brilliant

I was very excited when my trial samply finally arrived . I read all the information that coved the entire box, not sure if all the information needed to be on display, a leaflet inside the box would have been better. I have most of the time a normal type skin, with at times the oily T problem. Day one and this was the moment to start testing the BB cream and see what all the excitment was about. I requested the Light cream. I first smelt the cream and found a pleasent fragrance not to strong and quite fresh like a boarder of garden flowers, I squeezed a small amount out onto my finger tips, it was very creamy and when I applied the BB cream, it was so smooth and glided on with no effort at all. I am of mature years so have had many, and I say many years of applying all types of foundations and skin tints, so this one was a plesant surprise in its application and coverage. The cream gave my face a very clean and flawless look with a fabulous finish and so after applying all my other war paint I went of to work with a little skip in my step and felt quite beautiful, and ready to take on the world.I found that the BB cream lasted the distant and even after a full day and work and most of the evening until it was time to take off my face paint, it still had a clean fresh feel and looked just as good as in the morning, so I was very impressed. So many time you buy a beauty product, and you have such high hopes that it will deliver,and you find that no it does not, well the Garnier BB cream is a keeper, yes I believe in this product, and I am very happy with how it makes my skin look and feel. Will keep on with my trial sample and see how it is after a few more weeks and see if my happy lines are reduced, don't like the wrinkle word. I loved this cream and would recommend to others, give it a go and feel the difference. GO BB CREAM GO.

Garnier BB Oil Free

I use it just as a foundation works wonders on my skin and is lightweight enough to wear when im not wanting to have a full face. I stil use concelor and a matte powder as my skin is very oily, but in comparison to other foundations it keeps my skin relatively matte. Would recommend for anyone that wants a medium coverage who was oily skin and doesnt want to put in a lot of work to look effortless.

Tips: use a flat top brush to apply to the face, I use xobeauty by shaaanxo

Great for some!

My skin is usually very sensitive and most face products burn or sting when first applied but this product did neither. It's very light but runny texture and a little goes a long way, I found it a bit orange but once i blended it in well it evened out. It evened the redness of my skin tone.while still being sheer and light weight for the no make-up look

Tips: Blend well especially if you are extremely white as it first comes out very orange

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream

My combination skin is quite dry over most areas apart from the t-zone and this can look worse by using the wrong kind of foundation or lighter base. I have used other BB and CC creams also tinted moisturizers. I fins its nicer to use a cream like these as my main everyday coverage and set it with a bit of powder. The Garnier BB cream wasn't too oily and lasts all day however it does get oiler and slip after about 5-6hours of wear so for a full day you may need to apply more powder during the day.The consistancy is a bit runny for m but glides on easily and feels light and my skin feels like it can still breathe. I wouldn't say the finish is that matte and would like it if it was a bit more so.Colour is a bit too dark/yellowy for my skin tone and I received the light colour meaning i needed to blend it right down my neck otherwise it would leave a rather obvious line. Packaging is not that great and wish it was in a pump form as it is niggly having to put the lid back on when you have the product in your hand. Price is the same as all other BB creams although I have noticed all the prices slowly creeping up.

Tips: Make sure you have blended it well, applying with your hands could be better as it would go on a lot easier.

Firstly, when I opened the tube for the first time it went everywhere, its really runny!

Coverage is alright but needed two coats to get a good finish.

I will admit it even with 2 coats it felt like I was wearing nothing. Which is fantastic when running after a 2 yr old.

The packaging was cute and I like it.

I only have Avon BB cream to compare it too and I would say this product is better product.

.. I don't think it's supposed to be runny - mine kind of had the texture of fluffy moisturiser, like if you beat it with a whisk (!!) Maybe your product had a problem?

BBeautiful!

I'm not going to lie - after using MAC and Lioele's BB creams, I didn't think anything would ever come close - but, I had friends using Garnier and raving about it! When the opportunity to try it arose, I had to give it a shot. I'm sitting here, typing this review out a day late - BUT for good reason! My first impressions were beautiful packaging (a hygienic, ergonomic slimline tube with an awesome glossy finish) and quite a fresh scent. I fell in love with the first application. This BB gives lightweight, buildable coverage that lasted all day for me with only a small amount of powder on the T-zone. The reason I am a day late with this review is after that first day, I broke out into a dry patch on my chin - however after the process of elimination, this was due to a new cleanser I was trying out - NOT my new beloved BB! I will definitely be re-purchasing. This is a beautiful product, fuss-free to apply and definitely helped out my oil-slick of a T-zone. Would happily recommend!

Tips: - I used a light dusting of powder to set my T zone, purely because I prefer a more matte look in Winter. In Summer, i'll use this sans powder! - Moisturise beforehand - this feels like a beautifully active product!

Perfect for the Price

After trying endless BB creams I noticed that none could combat the oiliness of my T-Zone. Although I haven't noticed any improvements in my skin, It hasn't left me with any new break outs.

You can achieve so many looks with this product. From a light natural coverage, to building it up for a more fuller coverage. And at under $20 you can't do much complaining about this product!

Tips: This works even better with a primer. And be careful of the tube, the liquid formula can pour out of the little opening pretty fast!

A definite keeper

I've tried various BB Creams and never had much luck with them, either the colour isn't right, I break out, or it doesn't give decent coverage. That's not so with the Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream.

I love the fact that it's oil free, my skin can swing wildly from being too dry to being combination oily, so having something oil free means I'm not turning into a grease pit by the end of the day.

This BB cream is quite runny, but to me that meant it was easy to smooth out evenly without having too much product concentrated in one area.

I found the colour light was perfect for me, especially in my winter paleness. I put my powder foundation over it to give more of a matt face, and when I'm a touch warmer in colouring in spring/summer then I'm sure I could still use the light and just change my powder foundation like I normally do. I like the fact that it's versatile like that (in my opinion).

I used this everyday of the trial, and everyday since! My new favourite BB Cream!

PS: I noticed a slight improvement in some of the pigmentation on my face... what a bonus!

La La Loved it!!

I loved this! I usually wear foundation and powder to work but this was enough! It was great because it wasn't too thick but provided just as much coverage as a normal foundation! Awesome!

Tips: Use a primer if you have one! Found it didn't go as shiny!

Not convinced

I felt this product was no better than any other BB creams I have used, which don't do a lot for me. It worked well enough under other liquid foundation, but I tried wearing it by itself and found, despite what the claims, it became shiny after a couple of hours and didn't have much staying power. I'm unimpressed, really. Will have to keep using it to see if the claims of long-terms effects are true. But based on it's performance so far I'm not hopeful.

Tips: Recommend for drier skin types
