Garnier Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-Free Review

I liked the product for a quick weekend fix, however I have very pale skin and have found the light to still be far too dark. I doesn't cover spots but it reduce the look of them. It worked great on reducing the general redness I have around my nose and it did even out skin tone quite well. I prefer the oil free one of the oil included one.

I really think that BB creams are great for days when you don't feel like applying a large amount of makeup. This product took away my skins red appearance and felt great, however I found it a bit dark for my skin tone and quite runny! I prefer my MAC BB cream however much more expensive

I got this thinking it would suit my oily/combination skin better but I found it quite drying and didn't like the feel of it on my skin. I ended up purchasing the normal Garnier BB cream again, which I really like.

This is an alright product, I wouldn't say that it does everything it says, but it's perfect for a day at the beach or casual summers day.

I like how it has a subtle coverage and although it doesn't really mask imperfections it brightens up your complexion.

I don't like however how the lightest colour is quite orange and really only works with my complexion when it's a little tan over summer. This doesn't make my face as oily as the original but it still has a long way to go.

This was the first ever bb cream I owned and actually just released that I don't have oily skin and have not bought the normal skin one. To me this was an alright bb cream but that was probably cause it was the wrong formula for me. I ended up purchasing this over the maybelline bb cream due to it being cheaper and I also preferred how it was in a skinny tube so took up less space for travelling. When i first started using it i wasn't a fan due to it is quite a thick formula and I did not have a proper beauty sponge. I found for me that using one of those wedges sponges would absorb all the product and made it has to blend out. I have found that now using the Real Techniques Miracle Complexion to apply my bb creams that this formula doesn't get absorbed into the sponge and is way easier to blend out. It covers up all my redness well and still leaves my skin looking natural and flawless. I liked this bb cream and have purchased it again for the normal skin types.

This does a great job to combat the oily T-Zone. However, I've got combination skin, so found this was a BIG NO NO for all over the face! It was so drying to a point where it felt damaging. Also- the tone was a wee bit too pink for me.

My opinion of this BB cream has changed dramatically - initially, I thought it was pretty great but now I'm not so sure. Even in the light shade it has an orange tinge which is awful and needs to be toned down with a powder to look any good. Upon even closer inspection it looks as though it tends to "grab" on to any dry patches and look pretty flakey. Not sure how I missed that in the beginning, I'll put it down to bad lighting or just not paying enough attention. I will try make it work but it shouldn't require that much effort in my opinion.

I found the colour was good in "light". Maybe the reviewers who had trouble with orangeness were using "medium"? I liked the non-greasy effect on most of the face but this was too drying on the undereye area.

I started out using the normal skin one and found it to be quite a heavy product to wear all day. So I switched to this Oil-free version and although it is lighter and it says it is supposed to combat oily skin I found that it was still to heavy for my pimple prone skin. I've recently switched to powder and wont go back. I think it is probably because it still contains an SPF. It would be interesting to see what a product like this, oil free, is like without a sunscreen in it.

I like this product for use when I want to use something on my face, but I don't want to use a proper foundation. This formula definitely gives more coverage than the original. My skin is quite good, I have a bit of redness and get a few pimples but nothing too bad so the coverage is enough to be like a foundation for me. My sister, who has more problem skin, likes to use this more like a primer under her foundation. It is a very runny formula, which can be difficult to use, but blends easily. I don't think that this is a wonderful product, and I prefer the original for it's ease of use during summer, but it is pretty good, and a good price. One last con is the scent, I found it very strong and a bit like alcohol.
