Garnier Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-Free Review

First off, I have oily/combination skin - I get oily especially around the nose and relatively normal skin elsewhere. I thought that I would be Medium skin-toned as I am olive skinned, however, it was much too dark and orange-toned for me, However, I continued to use it in order to test out the formula and whether it worked, before I think about possibly getting the light one. One thing I didn't like was how runny the consistency was, it made application messy. It did go on quite smoothly though which was good. I just used my fingers to apply it, but will look into using brushes or blenders when I get some.

In terms of coverage, it was a very light coverage, especially as I have a lot of acne scars and a few blemishes that it didn't cover, and putting on more than 2 layers started looking quite cakey.

My face stayed matte for quite a few hours but I did notice oily patches showing through after about 4 hours of wear. It does minimise the appearance of pores which is good, but it definitely does not cover redness and imperfections. I still need concealer to do all that. I would recommend it for people who have few blemishes and redness but if you need coverage, then this definitely would not be the product for you. The packaging is quite slim and handy to carry, but I don't like the tube because it just leaks out into the cap, and every time I open it to use, there's just a lot of product sitting in the cap which is both unhygienic and takes forever to clean. It doesn't dry out skin and hasn't broken me out so far which is good, as I have particularly acne prone skin.

Overall though, I would not repurchase as this does not meet my needs and I would most likely opt for liquid foundation with medium coverage instead.

I was sent the wrong colour but still used it in the days I was at home. I found it to be a bit oily and after two days I had massive breakouts around my nose and mouth. that being said it did have good staying power - no running nor did it wear off quickly - it reduced the redness around my cheeks and it was easy to apply (I used a spare foundation brush). it smells nice not like chemicals or over powering fragrance I would recommend giving it a try but be prepared for potential breakouts

I was not very impressed with this BB cream. My skin can get very oily and I was expecting this to work really well and stay matte all day like it advertises. However, it lasted about 3 hours max until it began to smudge, even with a primer on.

It has quite a runny consistency, and quite a lot of product is needed compared to the size of the tube. I applied it both with my fingers and with a foundation brush, and I found the foundation brush worked better as I found it to give better coverage this way. However, like I said before it only lasted a few hours before it began to run. It has medium coverage, and after application it does dry to a matte finish. It also doesn't have much of a smell.

The packaging is rather boring and could be more exciting than a beige colour, but this isn't a big deal. It does include the information about the product. This BB cream is fairly cheap, but I believe pricier ones might work better and last longer than this did.

I don't think this product worked as well as I was expecting it to and this was rather disappointing. It does not really do what it says it does. I would likely recommend this to a friend who does not have such oily skin because it may work for them, but it did not for me.

I was lucky enough to be sent a trial sample of the Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB cream for Combination to oily skin. I have quite oily skin so this was the one best suited to me. The consistency of this product is quite runny, so you need to be careful with it. But the tube is nice and slim-line so it would fit into your handbag really easily and the tip of the tube is really fine so it is easy to dispense. This is quite easy to apply, the best method is probably with your fingers as I find it really smoothes into your skin that way. I tried it with a beauty blender too, but this didn't really benefit the product. It doesn't really have too much of a scent, nothing overpowering anyway. The coverage of this was very light for me as I have a lot of blemishes, so I found it didn't really cover them too well, you would still need to use a concealer. It does take some of the redness away from your skin though, and the finish was quite dewy. The product lasted quite well during the day but then I wasn't really going out and about, I was just at home for that day. I have to say that I think you can get better for your money, this one is good if you just want a light coverage, but not so great if you want full coverage. I haven't really noticed any changes in my skin just yet, but I will keep using it to see if it makes any difference. So I would recommend to anyone who is looking for something like a tinted moisturiser, something natural to put on if you don't want to wear heavy foundation.

I've applied this with both a brush and my fingers, and had trouble getting it to sit evenly on my skin with both methods. Despite my brush leaving visible brushstroke marks on my face, the BB cream itself didn't offer very good coverage at all. I will admit I like a full coverage product but this did little to even out redness or cover blemishes.

The description of this product states that it gives the skin 'a healthy glow', but also providing a matte finish. I'm not quite sure how these things can both be true at once. I would describe the finish as a true matte so if you do like a low coverage, matte product, this may be for you.

after using the anti aging BB cream, I had high hopes on this but was sadly disappointed. Colour was lighter than expected, and it made my skin feel very dry. After two days of use, my skin broke out in pimples.I Dont like it

I have combination skin but more towards the oily side. I generally dont get that many blemishes or pimples but when i do they are often quite red. After my normal facial routine i applied the BB cream to my face and found it covered up my blemishes well and didnt leave a cake like look. The consistancy was great and i found it very easy to apply to my face. I really like wearing the bb cream for the first couple of hours but after that i found it became very shiny and felt very oily on my skin leaving it looking a bit yucky compared to when it was first applied. Im not sure whether this was due to my own natural oily skin or whether this is what happens with this product. I would certainly try this product again but prehaps when i felt my skin wasnt behaving so badly (oily). I suggest give it a go and see if it works for you as i personally loved the initial look.

i have oily-comb skin that is also very sensitive when it comes to trying out new products. This bb cream was light and thin which made it easy to blend into my skin. the coverage was awesome and i only needed a small amount of concealer on top. i have used bb cream before and found i didn't give me enough coverage so i would just use it as a base under my foundation so i really liked the fact i did not have to do that with this bb cream. my skin felt like i didn't have any make up on and it could breath, however i found the colour (medium) made my face look orange which i had to be careful of as my room where i apply my make up is quite dark and i couldn't tell it was orange until i stepped out into the light. i found that this bb cream did not last on my skin, i would apply this in the morning and noticed through out the day my skin got extremly oily (more than usual) and if i touched my face the cream would come straight off onto my fingers. after a couple of days of using this product i noticed my skin breaking out alot more than usual, by the end of the week i had more break outs than i would get in a month. i stopped using this as i have my ball in a week and want my skin looking good for then, my break outs stopped as soon as i stopped using this cream.

i loved the consistency and coverage of this bb cream. i didn't like that it didn't help with the oiliness but i was very impressed with everything else, however i don't think this bb cream is for me as my skin is too sensitive to the product. i will continue using this after my ball and see if it was actually the product breaking me out. i do recommend this product and it is so affordable.

I was very excited to try this bb cream as I have oily skin, so I put it on and it certainly makes imperfections less visible, its a nice fast product to use if you dont have time to put foundation on. Its very light coverage. I love how it makes your skin look when you first put it on but then after a couple of hours it starts to go patchy and it was actually terrible on my oily skin. I prefer the standard garnier bb cream not the oil free one. I felt like a grease monkey wearing it. Much to my disappointment. If you need to go to town in a rush and dont have time to do your face id reccomend this. But in my opinion I wont be buying it again as it didnt do what I thought it would.
