Garnier Miracle Skin Perfecter BB Cream - Normal

I found it mostly did as it states on the box, Hiding end of the week fatigue fairly well, wouldn't handle the "hell yeah I had a great time last night" fatigue. Gave the skin a nice even look although I found it a bit on the heavy side more like a foundation but then my skin has always been finicky with foundation. I found it worked well for me when mixed with a moisturiser gave me a smooth even look with no dry flakey patches between the eyebrows. Enjoyed the fact that this product doesn't seem to have any added perfume.

Tips: Use a moisturiser first or mix it in with moisturiser .

Not my Favourite!

I have combination skin, leaning more on the dry side during winter. I usually use the oil free version of this BB cream, daily. I found this product more moisturising than the oil fee, the consistency is a lot thicker, making spillages less likely and it smells nicer too. I found it easy to apply, but the coverage wasn't quite enough with just the one application, so you have to build to the coverage you are happy with. It doesn't state to give full coverage though so no complaints. It was nice to have a fresh dewy look for a change, as the oil free BB cream is very matte. So if you don't like the dewy look you would need to finish off with a powder. I found this product to be long lasting, no need for touch ups during the day. Packaging is ok, no problems with it affecting application. It definitely evens out skin tone, is moisturising, giving you a lovely dewy "glow" and it has SPF protection. But it did not help with blemish correction. I would recommend this to friends, depending on their skin type of course and what coverage they were after. I will keep this product on hand, for days when I want a more natural look, with light coverage. Great for weekend day wear!

Garnier BB Cream

This BB cream went on really well, smelt nice and was a good consistency. I think I used it too thickly as I felt it was quite greasy on my face. I would recommend using a small amount rather than slapping it on like moisturiser :-). Very easy to apply and good coverage.

Good, natural look and feel

I haven't tried many tinted bb creams so was unsure what to expect. The texture is like a really thick foundation so you don't need to use a lot (I learnt this the first time) as it thins out upon rubbing. On its own it just gave my skin a slight coverage and nice glow which works for me as I have reasonably even skin as is. With some powder over top and some bronzer for contouring I could easily get away without foundation at all. Overall I would buy it to use as my day to day to save my full coverage foundation for the weekend =)

Tips: Pop a powder over top to remove any shine and add an extra layer of coverage.

Not perfect but pretty close

Firstly, I don't use this as my sole moisturiser. Whether just psychological or not, I don't feel it delivers enough moisture, and I've never been sure of what SPF it has. So I use my regular moisturiser underneath and then this on top (instead of foundation - if wearing make-up, I do skip this cream - perhaps I shouldn't?).

It's perfect for winter, adding a bit of a colour boost to my complexion without looking like a spray tan as some tinted moisturisers do (I have fair skin and use the 'light' cream). It does even out some imperfections but perhaps my hide is too much for anything to get 'flawless'.

It's easy to use, pleasantly scented, wears well and I am a big fan of it as, as noted, a 'booster' - that's my personal use only.

Tips: I do use sparingly - I find a little goes a long way (I do have very fair skin so it doesn't take much for me to feel 'overdone').

Great product!

This product is great, especially since you don't need to moisturize aswell, which I did accidentally the first time so was quite thick. Takes a little while to sink into your skin and dry. One coat is good enough but for full coverage I would recommend 2. Will keep using!

Garnier BB cream

I received the light shade my first thought of this product as I squeezed it out was it felt quite thick and clay-like. I was sick while trialling this and found that it was actually slightly too dark for me :( I did like the fact that it did help reduce redness, it did add a bit more colour and life to my skin from being sick but it didn't seem to do any kind of coverage for hiding my freckles (which personally I hate!) but for a light make up look it is fine, although I did feel like my "T zone" did get a bit oily from this product sadly hopefully once I am over my bug I can build it up and maybe get different results. Do like the packaging and how much control you have of how much product is dispensed.

Tips: After using it after I got over my flu properly I had massive break out and my porse are still recovering would not recommend this product at all as I very, very rarely react to products. So disappointed!

Are you a "makeup every day" girl? Read on.....

I have no shame in admitting I'm a "make up every day" kinda girl.

I ditched the foundation, and used this cream in its place for a week.

I applied it to skin, with a primer applied 15 min earlier underneath, and with clean fingertips.

I started out with a tiny amount (pea sized) but found I needed a little more to blend past my jaw, and down my neck. It went on well, it offered less coverage than I was used to, but it's a BB cream, not a foundation. I found it's staying power was no where near as "long lasting" as it claimed sadly, and noticed it turning patchy around my mouth and nose around lunch time. I did however find it hydrating, and although the colour and coverage became patchy, my skin was not dry.

Tips: Great for the weekend when you don't have the energy to put on a "full face", but would still like some coverage.

Hmmm Garnier not at it's best

I absolutely love Garnier products like I have used just about all of them but this little beauty didn't really do it for me.

The packaging is great with the flip top very clean and easy to use but that's where it ended for me. The consistency was good but felt it was too thick for a BB, coverage was too much for a BB and to build on it for more coverage it made me look orange! It was too dark for my complexion, I'm actually going to try this product in the summer when my skin tone is slightly darker, it just didn't work for me I found it slightly greasy for my normal skin. Not a big fan on this but normally I love Garnier products.
