Pretty Good

I have a love, hate relationship with this product. I love the feel of the cream against my skin, and the way it stays. It's brilliantly moisturising and smells lovely. Although, I didn't really like the way it pretty much doesn't cover anything. It did even out my skin tone, but just still shows everything. I think I would buy this product, but I wouldn't buy it as a foundation replacement. I normally use just a tinted moisturiser, so I don't usually have a full coverage type make-up, but this is even less than this. It is very light in feel on your skin too. Hardly notice it's there at all. I do like it, but I would need to consider the benefits of a BB cream as against the tinted moisturiser that I currently use.

Tips: It's great for the skin, but not for full coverage. Be aware of that before you decide to buy the cream for coverage...!

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream - Normal

Firstly I must say that on reading the packaging, I am well out of the demographic that this product is aimed at! This is why I have marked it lower and would not use it again. On saying that, though, it went on smoothly, had a light fragrance, and felt comfortable on the skin. However, I did feel it highlighted my wrinkles - I would not use this product again but would recommend it to someone younger!

Best BB cream i have ever used!

I was thrilled and super excited when I was sent an invitation to try the new Garnier BB cream, I had seen this posted on billboards when I was in Dubai as being the worlds best BB cream so was beside myself when I got to try this product. Was it really the worlds best BB cream as they advertised? I would have to wait to find out.

It comes in 4 different types, but I got Normal because of my normal to combination skin, it comes in a pretty gold tube which is easy to squeeze and tight lid which prevents any product from leaking.

Seeing the product was a surprise to me, it has a thick texture compared to other BB creams I have used and looks like foundation, once applied to my skin it evened out my skin tone and gave me this natural glow. It made my redness less visible and reduced the look of my blemishes.

When I rub it into my skin it only absorbs some of it, I notice every time I wear the BB cream I have to set it with powder or my face feels wet. It lasts all day and it does give you a natural no makeup look, this BB cream I wear everyday as its easy to apply in no time and the cream doesn't crease in my under eyes.

This cream is now part of my daily routine, I would recommend it to everyone, makeup beginners or experts, its great for everyone.

Miracle BB cream

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream - Normal

Packaging was great came in a cool box and stated everything about the product, was very helpful.

The product has a fantastic smell to it, its very appealing when you go to put it on your face. In the mornings when i wash my face etc i find my face is a tad dry. when using this BB cream it smelt great when i applied it to my face it was very moisturizing.

Coverage was great it did wonders under my eyes where there very dark it seemed to cover my dark circles very well.

Long lasting i wore it all day from 8 am till around 5.30 when i came home from work and stayed on fine all i did during the day was add a touch of powder to keep it set.

It did everything it said it would do i would most definitely use it again and i have already recommended it to others.

Great job happy consumer

Tips: Just a touch of powder during the day to keep it on all day and if you have mega circles and dark eyes like myself i would use a touch of concealer before applying the BB cream xx

Garnier BB cream, perfection!

I loved this! I have been using it every day for a little over a week now and I think I'm sold, wether it be a no makeup makeup day or as a base for my foundation. It is quite thick in consistency, but creamy and glides on like butter. The smell is pleasant but not over powering and by the time I've finished in the bathroom it's not noticeable at all. I have olivey/tan body but my face is pale so on the days where I don't wear makeup this evened out my skin tone perfectly. I did find I looked quite shiney which I'm not really into so I applied a bit of powder on top, but it feels very moisturizing which is great. On the days where I was wearing makeup I used it as a bace before applying my foundation, and because it evened out my skin tone I found I didn't have to use as much foundation which is fantastic! All in all I think this is a great product and will defently be purchasing in the future which won't be for a wee while because you don't have to use much product at all, maybe a fingernail size amount. Thanks again for this awesome trial!

Tips: Use as a base for foundation to even out skin tone or on its own for a natural healthy looking glow

Normal BB in Light

Lately I've been having good skin days, but I've only had the heavy coverage BB creams and foundations (or oil-free/matte and dried out my skin too much), so I wanted to try a BB cream for normal skin types and Garnier is a safe choice as I always liked their products. I choose the light shade as I use lighter shades in winter and medium in the summer.

The packaging is nice and easy to use, nothing special to say about it, handy squeeze tube, so easy to control how much product I'd like to get out.

I love the consistency, it is very nice and creamy, very hydrating, so no need to use moisturizer underneath, it's the first BB cream I can do this as all the others were just sitting in my fine lines and made me look like a zombie with flaky skin if I tried to use them on their own. So it's definitely a plus. Also, it makes my skin glow very nicely, it doesn't look oily, just nice and dewy fresh-faced upon applying, however a couple of hours later my face turns into an oil-slick.

Its fragrance is nice and flowery, perfume is pretty high on the list, so I wouldn't try it on sensitive skin, but it didn't irritate mine at all and I've been using it for over a week daily.

It didn't clog my pores, didn't cause any breakouts, this is another plus on the list.

Sadly, the coverage is very sheer, I need to apply a second coat to hide some of my redness and scars, so there goes the time saved by skipping moisturizer, not great at all. It is more similar to a tinted moisturizer than a BB cream because of this issue.

It only lasts for a short period of time, at the end of the day I always looked like I'd be bare-faced, no make-up whatsoever, this BB cream just disappeared into thin air!

I will still use it on weekends or when I don't need my "face" to last a long time and on "very good skin days".

Tips: Always finish it off with some powder or it won't last too long and will make your face look oily.

Garnier BB Cream - Normal - Light

I was looking forward to trying this product as I've never really bought any Garnier products before. Firstly, I love the packaging and love that the bb cream has a flip top lid, it's easy to access and the tube is easy to clean if you are applying with your fingers etc. My skin tone is around NW20 so very light and when I squeezed out the product, it was quite a bit darker than what I was used to. I am not a huge fan of strong smelling products particularly moisturisers as I get hayfever really bad and it can just make it so much worse. If there was a no fragrance option that would be great. The BB cream is quite a thick consistency but it did blend out quite well and gave a nice sheen to the skin. It didn't last all day but with a translucent powder or mineral powder it may help prolong it. Price wise this is good value for money. I don't think I will buy this again, the smell was too much for me and the "light" shade was too dark for me. I will definitely give other garnier products a go though. :)

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream - Normal R

I generally have normal skin but do get a few blemishes round my chin from time to time.

I found the consistency to be quite creamy and thick, but quite light at the same time. I just applied the product using my fingers as I don't usually wear a lot of makeup and as a mum to a toddler I don't often have time to apply any. It was quite easy to apply this way although it did leave me feeling like i had caked on foundation.

The packaging was very informative and eye catching. The price is affordable and it is good that it is available in a range of stores including the supermarkets

I would definitely give this product another go if I had a little more time and a bit of help to apply it.

Tips: Apply it lightly to start with and then see if you need more

Totally wrong shade. Very disappointed

The actual product is a nice texture, melts into your skin, is thick and creamy and does what it says on the package BUT I got mine in the shade Light which is the lightest shade and it was soooo extremely dark that it was almost unwearable. I will definitely stick to my Garnier Dream Pure BB cream. My mum tried out the BB cream too and she's normally a medium-dark and it suited her skin tone quite well but for a "Light" shade I was really disappointed! I wish I could provide a more in depth review of this product but I simply couldn't as I was leaving my house everyday and this product was just too dark/yellow toned to wear out in public and therefore wear it all. It looked like fake-tan gone wrong!

Tips: Check the shades before buying because you might find it is far too dark for your skin tone, even though it blends well. If you do try this BB cream, you can use a translucent powder or light powder to set it to lighten the colour the tiniest and make it last all day.

Garnier BB Cream - Normal

I used the normal skin Light 50 ml , i really liked this product especially since it is SPF 15, thou in the summer it would be good if the SPF rate could be higher, any way cream went on smoothly and didn't feel heavy and since i am pale it was the right shade for me,i did use it under my foundation, and found my foundation applied more evenly. i did find that the product looked good all day, i think if you were in a rush this would be goood as you wouldn't have to apply your foundation.yes i would recommend this product as it just as good as some more expensive bb creams in the market and a great price as well.

Tips: i used a brush to apply so it went on alot more smoother that using your finger tips.
