Garnier Skin Perfector BB Cream Anti Ageing Review

OK - So I took some time to be convinced about BB Creams. If I wasn't selected for this Trial, I have to say I would probably still be a BB Cream virgin.

This BB cream makes a lot of promises, and being a bit of a BB skeptic, I was really keen to try it out! (If I'm being honest, I really wasn't expecting much).

First off; the packaging - nothing too fancy and probably what you would expect from a mid-range product. Discard box, pop cap, squeeze tube...

Oh, the scent! I really loved the fresh smell of the cream. Others have commented it's over-powering but I found it to be pleasant. Nice one!

The cream; I found the Medium shade was a good match for my skin tone. It is much thicker than what I expected, and blended nicely to give an even and smooth appearance. It also did a great job of covering up all the redness across my cheeks I'm forever trying to conceal. (Now THAT is a miracle). I usually prefer a heavier coverage to even out my skin tone, but this gave surprisingly good coverage and I found it enough.

All in all, it's a great product and I will definitely keep using it. It did do what it actually said it would, and that deserves a huge pat on the back, Garnier!

Hi there. I have used this product everyday for over one week, it has a pleasant smell, not too overpowering, the first day I used it I used one application, I found it quite sheer, gave a healthy looking glow, my skin is a bit oily so it left me with a slight shine. The next day I tried two applications, this gave me better coverage, then fixed it with a setting powder, found that I didn't need any concealer with it. I will definitely use this product again, maybe I will try the one for oily skin next.

The saturated colour of the cream in the tube was alarming because it looked like a full-on foundation as opposed to a tinted moisturiser. But it went on quite sheer and gave natural looking coverage which I really liked. It says you can build up layers if you want more coverage. The texture did feel a bit greasy on my face but I wonder if it might be that I'm not used to heavy moisturisers. Also, it is an anti-aging formula so might be heavier to provide more hydration. It did make my skin feel great. Even without it on my skin is less dry. I'm not a regular foundation wearer but I'm trying to be as my skin gets older. My morning beauty routine is low maintenance so it has been hard for me to be bothered using a foundation daily but this product's ease of application fits well into my routine.

I began my trial immediately as i was wanting to give the most accurate review possible ,my skin is normal with no concerns the BB cream was in a easy to handle tube but i feel the packaging could of been more eye catching . The consistency was very smooth and creamy so i choose to apply it using my finger tips as i would my moisturiser ,coverage was light but even and immediately made my skin soft and illuminated, however i did need to reapply in the early afternoon to maintain the coverage .The BB cream has a lovely light pleasing scent and the price is very affordable , overall a fantastic product i would happily include in my beauty routine and also recommend to others.

The consistency was quite creamy and not very thick but you still had to squeeze it slightly to come out. Application was easy, didn't feel like moisturizer was need underneath but still used a slight amount to make the BB cream a bit runnier. The smell was very nice, wasn't too strong but just enough to give a hint of fragrance. The coverage was quite small, only needed 10 or 20c piece amount to get the perfect coverage. The product only lasted for a few hours, not as much as it said it would, but the way it soaked into my skin was very good and covered all the right areas, but it didn't cover my fine lines and wrinkles as it said it would, only slightly did it make my face glow more. The product lasted me quite a long time and the bottle kept all the product in, until i needed to use it. The packaging was great for the product, didn't leak at all and was very happy that you didn't need to worry about where you put it, so it doesn't leak. The price is very very good for the product itself, but what is in it weren't the right ingredients for minimizing wrinkles. I would recommend it only to a friend who has very slight fine lines and wrinkles only because the product doesn't make a huge difference if it is for someone with bad wrinkles.

The BB cream is in a nice small tube and there is no over powering smell. . I found the liquid quite runny and a little went a long way. It is a good price at $17.49 and I like the fact that it has a sunscreen in it. My skin did look better, but not firmer like it says it will on the package. It was easy to apply on my face using my fingers. The BB cream was invisible when applied which is great because I am not keen on the heavy makeup look. I enjoyed trying this product but have to say the appearance of my wrinkles hasn't changed yet after a week of using it

This is very smooth and easy to apply evenly. Maded my skin feel smooth but I found it was a bit shiny which I don't really like. I used this under my foundation as it did not cover enough for my liking. I do have redness in my skin that I like to cover. Did not really notice any difference in firming my skin or wrinkles, but that was after trying for a week. It may do in time.

The packaging looked quite nice, almost sophisticated and not too big. The smell was quite nice but not overpowering. I chose the normal skin type. It gave fairly even coverage but got stuck in my eyebrows. Colour blended well with skin tone. Not sure about age defying, but the colour made my skin look younger, but didn't see an affect on my skin as a whole although maybe after prolonged use I will. Not an overly expensive product but I don't think I would pay for it as I have used products which I prefer more. It looks nice on, almost foundation like, but also has that feel....not so much a moisturiser.

Garnier anti ageing bb cream looked and felt great on my skin was easy to apply and you dont need much at all i found it best to re-apply halfway through the day to keep me looking good all day it has a great texture and smells good too would love to use regularly but found that it flared up my exema other than that I highly reccomend tjis product
