Sounds better than it is

I bought this product after hearing how great it was. I'm all about multi-tasking products, so I was very keen to try it.

Unfortunately, I had two issues with it. First, the colour. This would be an entirely personal thing, but the light colour was so pale it looked like I wasn't wearing BB cream at all (so what is the point of that??) and the medium looked silly because it was too dark. I bought both hoping I could mix them together and make a colour in the middle, but it still never really worked for me. Because this was a supermarket product I was unable to try the colours on my skin first. I guess this is a me problem rather than a product problem but I would be interested to know if others had the same issue.

My other thing I didn't like about it - and this is a more realistic complaint - is that after I applied the BB cream my skin felt sticky all day. My ideal BB cream/tinted moisturiser is one that I apply and forget about, but whenever I touched my face I could feel the product on my skin and it wiped off on my clothes any time they touched my face.

In the end I was so disappointed with this that I gave it away - and I rarely give up on a product. I know others who loved it, but I can't agree!

LOOOOOVE THIS!!!!

I have quite pale skin and this really gives me a soft bronzed glow without making me look like a pumpkin. And because it is really light it looks like my real skin because it doesn't hide things like my freckles. I am absolutely in love with this. It is perfect for throwing on when you don't want that natural no makeup look but you also don't want to look like a ghost!!

Tips: For a more natural look simply apply with fingers. And for a more full coverage look apply with a beauty blender or foundation brush.

My everyday BB cream

I use this BB cream every day in place of foundation. As a busy mum I don't have time to do a full face daily but I pair this and set it with a powder and it gives me enough coverage not to feel naked and even out my skin. It's almost on me and has a pleasant smell. I do think the medium is quite dark.

A little overrated

Ok so I really wanted to love this product! With all my heart I wanted to to work for me but it just didn't. I wanted it for a light coverage casual makeup day kinda product but it almost didn't look like I was wearing any product and it broke me out really bad... I tried different ways of applying to make sure it wasn't just my brushes but that didn't make any difference. Really sad about this one.

Not so great

I thought this would be good but the texture felt almost greasy? And it kind of came off really fast - I actually felt like I was sweating it off even though it wasn't hot, I think it's something to do with the greasy feeling. The colour was ok - which is nice because quite often all of these are too dark for me.

Beginners bag

This BB cream makes your skin look very healthy, glowing and gives just enough coverage to dilute any blemishes, perfect for all ages and should be a staple in a beginners bag.

bring back the old formula

I love this stuff and anything by garnier but im not happy with this particular cream any more. I find it rubs onto my clothes even with a very light application and this is a problem I never had before.

Tips: Its still a good cream but not great like it used to be. Excellent for light coverage and that no make up feel. Use a make up sponge to apply

Beginners product

I found this a really good product when i started wearing makeup. Its perfect for summer days where you want a light coverage. I find it goes on way better with a brush as this makes it a more even application.

Very thick consistency

This was the very first face coverage product I used, and it was a good stepping stone to better products.

It provided good coverage for me when I was younger (around sixteen to nineteen), but ever since then I've preferred other products.

It doesn't cover redness very well, and tends to look a bit slimy on my skin now, even with the use of setting powder. The consistency is very thick and feels a little like putting a face cream on than a foundation.

I won't be using this again, but perhaps someone else would have a better experience?

Tips: I recommend the Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-free SPF 15 for beginners rather than this one. It's a bit more easy to use, and has the added benefit of SPF 15 sunscreen.

Love it to some extent

I wanted to try a new BB cream for summer and thought I'd try this one as I'd heard great things about this product. Its easily applied and looks smooth and natural which I love, you don't need to use much product to cover your face. The only problems I encountered with this product is that it looks really oily on my skin even after I use matte powder. Also even the light shade is slightly too dark for me and looks slightly orange. It stays on all day which is great and makes my skin look hydrated. The SPF is also a great bonus especially as I use it in summer on hot days.
