Garnier Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-Free Review

This is my first time using a BB cream and I love it. I am now addicted. My skin can be very oily at times making most foundations look very shinny by the end of the day and this is not ideal. With this cream however, my skin stays shine free until I wash it off. It is a very light cream - more of a liquid consistency and makes my skin very soft. I apply two layers of it to use as a foundation. I find it sets much like a powder. It is very easy to apply and I just use my fingers to do so and definitely gives me full coverage and hides all my skins imperfections. It lasts a good 8 hours on my skin, I do need to reapply to my T Zone area after that but not much at all. Because it is a moisteriser and can be used as a foundation I find the price to be very affordable. Definitely worth the money. The packaging is also aesthetically pleasing and the perfect size to carry around in your handbag. I love the results I have got from using this cream and I will not be using anything else in future. I am addicted. It balances the oiliness in my skin and leaves in very soft and has a powder finish to it. Love it!

I was so excited to receive this, so thank you BR for this opportunity, first off I like to note that the packaging is nice and sleek and sturdy so you can stand it on its end so the product is at easy access when you need it. The formula is slightly on the runny side so not really a cream at all but that doesn't bother me because it's super blendable, super buildable and gives a super healthy dewy look then dries out to a slightly matte finish. The thing I like most about this is it is really light weight and felt like natural skin and dried out well so it wasn't tacky to the touch BUT! The thing I was the least impressed with was the colour! I was incredibly disappointed and it was neither mine or BRs fault but I am usually a medium in most shades but this was so so dark, I'd almost have to get a dark tan to match up with it, and from most reviews on here even the light was too dark, which makes me think that maybe the light may have been better suited to my skin tone, Garnier need to review their shades as I feel like I'm not the only one with this issue

I reviewed the Combination to oily skin - medium. I usually have a very sensitive skin and cannot just use any products. Using this BB cream i didn't have that problem. I could wear it without any skin reaction.

I found the BB cream to be a bit watery. It wasn't really an issue, because it was still smooth and easy to apply. I normally just apply it with my finger and spread all over my face. I used the BB cream as a base and had to use my normal foundation as well. The two together actually makes my make-up look flawless. I have a different BB cream which i used before the BB cream and must say the Garnier BB applies much smoother and has better coverage.

The tube is very compact and fit in my make-up bag, along with my other make-up. It is definitely worth the money and does what it says. After two weeks of review, i would definitely continue, and buy this BB cream in the future as i believe it worth the buy.

This is such a lovely product and I was so excited to be given the opportunity to try it.I It is a lovely silky liquid which glides onto my skin. I chose the medium shade which is perfect for my skin tone.It has great coverage and it blends evenly onto my skin.It has a pleasant smell.The packaging is great. It has a smaal nozzle and when you squeeze the tube a small amount comes out easily. This is great as it doesnt squirt out everywhere.This product has a lovely glow It doesnt leave my skin greasy or shiny.Will definitly be adding this product to my makeup bag.Love this product

First time using a BB cream and I've found the product okay but I'm not terribly blown away. I have combination skin that can sometimes be a little sensitive as it gets red and this product covered about 85% of my blemishes. The redness is greatly reduced but the a couple of scars is still somewhat visible. Drier areas of my skin gets too dry with this product.

The consistency is very runny and the I found the tube to be slightly leaking the cream into the cap? It's a pet peeve of mine for keeping the nozzle surrounding and twisty bits of cosmetics and moisturisers clean, but this one just kept on coming out!

It doesn't have a strong smell which is nice though I do think it looks a little cakey for my complexion and that I needed to take care on it blending it in with my fingers around the edges of my face. It is pleasant enough to have for the whole day and not feel sticky and gross at the end though, which is nice, and coverage does falter a little but still decent enough for pilates ;-)

Packaging is pleasant but think it's a little big for the tube, but guess they need to place all the information on it somehow.

Interested to see whether my pores are minimised in appearance and radiance is actually improved in four weeks though, and at the moment, I probably won't recommend this to friends as it's not doing anything too spectacular.

I naturally have some light freckles and this keys them show through but evens out my skin tone without being too thick or gloopy. I had the original formulation and the oil free is a million times better for me. I blends super well and goes on creamy. I'd say it's a tiny bit chemical scented but it goes away within moments. It works incredibly well as a primer of sorts under foundation and on its own gives light coverage. Skims blemishes but didn't cover them very well. Adding a touch of concealer helped.

My first impression of this was 'oh no it's going to be too dark for me!' However I wassurprised when I put it on my face. I left it to settle for a couple of minutes and it seemed to blend in. The oil free formula is really watery, like REALLY watery, not at all what I expected, but it doesn't affect application too much. I have used this on its own, with powder on top, with primer and foundation and I have to say I really like it. It makes my skin feel smooth to the touch and works really well with my Kat von D foundation. I still get oily by the end of the day and need to touch up with powder, but that is like me with most things. It provides enough moisture so I don't need to use anything else. I think the colour could be lighter still as I'm very pale and I felt it was a touch orange, by under my regular foundation that didn't matter. Overall, after testing it out for a week, I like it and would definitely buy it again. Having SPF is really important to me too :)

I have a combination skin type but at 59 find it is getting dryer. I have mild rosacea and of course age spots that I found this BB cream did slightly diminish. As I rarely wear foundation, generally just a tinted moisturiser, I was keen to try this product. Unfortunately even though I have fairish skin I found it a bit light to put on although it did blend in after about 10 minutes. I would like to try a slightly darker shade. It has a good consistency which I applied with my finger and was fairly easy to apply but did need smoothing into the skin. Personally I found it a bit too matt to begin but found that went away after about half an hour. I did mix it with a bit of tinted moisturiser which worked better for me. I apply at about 8am and cannot see it when I am home at 4pm. I haven't bought this type of product before but consider the cost and the amount very reasonable compared to the high end brands. I am happy to say that the writing/colouring on the packaging makes it easy to read and not too small as so many products have, which we "oldies" have trouble reading. I don't think it boosted any "healthy glow" as I found it too matt to do that, however, it did even my skin tone a little. I would recommend it to a friend to try as it is a fair price and easy to use, especially if they have an oily skin.

It's nice to be told your skins looking great - even when you are stressed and tired. Garnier BB Cream is so easy to apply, I use my fingers, it's so light and creamy, I do like a medium coverage and this is perfect, because I am oily I do still need to touch up during the day. Medium for me is a little dark - so I custom blend with some of the light shade, into a little plastic pump bottle. I'm a fan and have also converted friends from more expensive foundation.

I have used a Garnier BB cream before and i didnt like it at all was thick and had a real orange colour so i was very excited to try this new one.I tried the BB cream for oily/ combination skin. I was very surprised with the consistency of it was much more light and runny and it glided onto my skin wonderfully. The shade was not as orange either. But that's where is really stops there. I found that it doesn't really stay on the skin very well so half way through the day my skin was very patchy and made my skin very glossy and oily looking. I have also noticed I have had quite a lot of break outs since using the Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream. I do however liked how it covered up those blemishes nicely, and maybe it was just coincidental that I happened to breakout whilst using this product. It would be very interesting to read what everyone else says about this product to see if they had the same results as I did.
