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.

Skin perfector!!!

Sleek packaging and little to no- fragrance. These are the first things I noticed, and love, about this product. I apply it with or without primer using a brush. Iv noticed a little goes a long way and the coverage is very buildable so I can wear it in place of my regular foundation. I like to set it with mineral powder on my tzone for a matte finish and I love the result. My favourite thing about it is the blurring effect it has over blemishes. Iv can get away with little to no concealer now. I would definitely repurchase.

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-free

I was really excited to try the BB cream after hearing many good things but I was a little underwhelmed after using the product for a week. One of the key points I liked the sound of was that it evened out skin tone. I found that it did an ok job of evening out skin tone but I still felt that I needed a foundation on top and to cover any blemishes. I think it works well as a layer underneath your foundation or would be a good light weight option for summer. I didn't notice a reduction in oil/shine on my skin but the cream did mention that you would start to see this result after 4 weeks of use. After applying the cream it does leave your skin feeling quite matt, but I have to admit I prefer the feel and look of my skin after applying foundation and powder. I'll keep using the cream over the next few weeks and hope to see a few more of the benefits the cream promises!

Tips: Great as a light weight layer underneath your foundation

Best BB cream out

I have tried quite a few BB creams over the past year and this has to be my favourite by a mile. I have super oily skin and struggle to find a BB that doesn't make it worse. But this one is amazing. It gives great coverage compared to a lot of others that I have tried, so much so that I will wear it on it's own. If I feel like a bit of extra coverage I will use a powder over the top but that's all I feel I need with this. People were really surprised when they asked what makeup I was wearing and I told them it was only a BB. It evens out skin tone perfectly and spreads really easily. I used the light colour which was a perfect match for my skin tone (relatively pale with pink undertones). A little bit actually goes quite a long way! It has quite a runny consistency so be careful when opening it. It stays on all day and really does minimise my shine (which is quite a feat haha).

Tips: Less is more. Start with a small amount and see how it goes, you will be surprised how far it spreads. If you want more coverage, give it a minute after the first application then do a 'top up' on areas that need more.

Pleasantly surprised!

I'm not usually one for tint in my moisturiser and was pleasantly surprised by the effect of this one. It wasn't too make-uppy and still felt like I had moisturised without the oil factory kicking in. I like the fact the spf is built in too. Seemed to wear well through the day too

The perfect substitute

I'm basically giving up foundation. Well maybe just during the day. This is easy apply, doesn't make me feel like I want to wash my face half way through the day (and start again) and it is a great base for the rest of the stuff I put on my face. I used it always with a concealer but you really do notice that your skin breathes and feels better after a few days.

I'm never quite sure about 'miracles' when it comes to make up but it definitely has made my make up routine healthier and easier.

Tips: Apply it, leave it to sink in for a moment, and set with a powder so that it doesn't shift and it also gives you even more coverage.

Bye bye Shine..

Hello Velvet Skin! Now I normally have a forehead which reflects light and could be used as a mirror but this BB Cream changed everything. I had shine free, velvety skin ALL day long! The formula feels more like a liquid foundation verses other BB's I've tried, which generally apply and feel more like a moisturiser. I treated this as I would a foundation and the results were fantastic - after applying a light layer with my fingers, I gave it a few minutes to settle and then buffed another light layer in using my foundation brush. A quick dusting of powder held it in place all day - there was no creasing or slipping! The packaging was cute, easy to use and stored easily in my makeup bag. Highly recommended to the other ladies out there with reflective foreheads.

Tips: The coverage was average, so apply two thin layers and follow up with a dusting of powder.

Oil free!

It really was oil free, and throughout the day I didn't manage to get any more oily than I already am! The colour wasn't great on, even though it was the lightest one, as I am quite pale. I could have done with a shade lighter, but it didn't look terrible on as it seemed to blend ok.

It had good coverage, and it stayed all day with no top ups, even when I got sweaty. My face is quite sensitive when it comes to using different products, however it didn't break out. It was easy to apply and left a good finish.

I would recommend this!

Garnier Miracle BB Cream Oil Free

I loved this BB cream, it was perfect for me as I have an oily skin. It gave a very matt result which I loved. The texture and consistency was ideal, the only thing was that I received the medium and found that it was too dark for my skin tone. So if i am to buy it again I would switch to the light. All in all I highly recommend this product.

BB cream

I currently use this product it's great if you need to leave the house in a hurry. Easy application I just use my finger tips the coverage is better than most liquid foundations I have used before. It still however ends up sliding off my face within a few hours. It is cheap and effective for a natural look without the effort. I would recommend to a friend who does not have my skin type oily combination skin as it does create some shine even when first applied it's probably as matte as a liquid cream can get.

Use in a combination for combination skin

The packaging is neat and simple and the product comes in a good size, perfect for traveling but lasting a long time. The cream I got is for oily skin, and I have combination skin. Oily around my cheeks and jaw line, but a dry t-zone and forehead and especially dry around my brows.

The cream is smooth in consistency, and quick and easy to apply. It feels light and blended quickly with my skin, providing thick coverage. Unfortunately the cream quickly flaked on my forehead and around my nose even though a slathered on a thick layer of moisturizer prior to application. I removed the cream, re-moisturized, and covered my extra dry spots with a light powder the same colour as the BB cream.

The cream was so light, I did not notice it on my skin for the entire day. It stayed on my skin and my skin stayed moisturized and flawless. Cleanup was a breeze also, the cream came off easily with a few splashes of water, and even wiping with a cotton pad and makeup remover after, revealed no residue. Amazing considering it was absorbed into my skin so quickly

I will buy this product when mine runs out, because it's great for every day wear if you don't like the feel of makeup on your skin.

Tips: use in a combination if you have to, like me
