Garnier Skin Perfector BB Cream Nude Review

So the packaging was similar to other Garnier products I have used. I really liked the size of the tube and thought how great it would be to pop into my handbag. Upon squeezing out the first sample..it smelled great! Was a little odd that it was white bit when I rubbed it between my fingers I could see the colour developing. Now my face...it felt a little more greasy than I expected and didn’t really give me any coverage all my redness and blemishes were still clearly visible. The instructions said to try another coat for more coverage so I did and while the coverage was a little better, my face now felt very heavy. The moisturiser worked well and my skin was well hydrated all day if not a little too much. Conclusion In all I like the idea of the product but I didn’t feel it delivered what I wanted from it. I don’t think i’ll be purchasing it in the future as I think therebare better options on the market already.

I really like this BB cream, it definitely does match my skin tone and blends really nicely. It gives a nice dewy glow to skin and I feel fresh faced when I wear this, which is most days (that or tinted moisturiser). It smooths on nicely and you don’t need a lot to get nice coverage. I don’t like thick caked on heavy foundation or coverage so I think this bb cream is great for what I like.

I was really excited to trial this product as I've been incredibly curious about the increasing number of products available that claim to match a range of skin tones.

I figured seeing as I'm a neutral palette and a fairly standard shade (mid tone in summer, down a couple shades in winter) I should be pretty easy to match. Boy was I wrong!

This bb cream pulled very orange on me, and ultimately sat about 3 shades darker than my winter tone (so I'm guessing about 1 shade darker than my summer tone). I'll be interested to see if it's a better match in summer or if it goes darker again, but the whole point was for it to match me which it definitely didn't deliver on.

The finish was nice, very natural, although to the point of not covering any but the absolute slightest blemishes - a little more coverage would be welcome.

The application left a little to be desired, too. My favourite thing about bb creams is being able to smear it on with fingers quickly and pretty haphazardly while running out the door, which you can't do with this - applying it too quickly or vigorously makes the product pill under your fingers which looks and feels awful.

Overall, a definite miss for me.

I’m in love with this product!! It provides a very natural coverage with a little boost of glow. It comes out white like a moisturiser and it’s as easy as applying a moisturiser which turns coloured when it hits the skin. It doesn’t feel like foundation on your skin and it is like wearing no makeup at all. But the most exciting thing about this product is that it also wears amazing well all day and in hot humid conditions with no flaking, I am so impressed. I have dry mature skin with redness and broken capillaries, I found it covered well and I was able to build up on areas of my skin needed it with redness or age spots for that extra bit of coverage. I would recommend this product to achieve beautiful looking natural skin without any effort. Doesn’t sink in and highlight wrinkles thankfully for the older skin this is a must! Because it’s what I do with any coverage little powder to stop the shine and I’m set to go for the day.

I love ur when u put it on it comes out white and just looks and feels like ur moisturising it then blend so perfectly with my skin an tones out the patches I'm not happy about on my face it lasts all day I have to say the only down fall I came across is u can feel it still on ur face almost like a tiny stickiness to it but it is going to b great for summer for me as I ant wear foundations in the summer due to it just melting off me so I think this is going to be my perfect solution I wouldn't put a moisturizer under it as it is a moisturizer and feels too much moisture on ur face if u do both and then apply a foundation great product packaging and price would highly recommend giving but a try if u just want a light coverage but a food coverage that lasts all day

I received this product in the Top To Toe BBBE box. I was so looking forward to using it as I have had some pleasing results from other brands. So, it comes out white and weirdly turns orange...even though it is for light skin. The texture is nice once it dries. For me, the drying process took so long and made my skin feel quite clammy. I am persevering with this under a lighter foundation and it appears to be a nice base when used like this, however it's just too much effort when a BB cream should be a slap and go kind of product. I won't be repurchasing this item, not until they dropped the orange tone to it.

The opportunity to review this BB cream could not have come at a better time! I have a 3 week old baby so my every day routine has become pretty simplified and I need effective quick products to get me looking semi put together and I have been on the hunt for a new BB cream and this Garnier Nude Effect BB Cream ticks all my boxes. I love that this is a universal shade, it comes out of the tube white and like magic the colour appears as you apply and adjusts to your skin tone perfectly! I love that this product really blurs the imperfections and leaves me looking glowy and awake for the day and the colour blends perfectly leaving me looking natural but an improved version of me. The BB cream also has SPF built in which is a huge plus as it's super important to have sun protection on your skin every single day, however I do find the product smells a little sunscreeny on application but this soon fades. The product comes in a simple squeezy tube, which won't win any design awards but it's a classic format that does its job well, seals nicely and it something you can easily chuck into your handbag or toiletry bag if going away. It says it is suitable for sentive skin which I do have and true to its word I have not had any skin issues or breakouts using this (which can sometimes happen when trying something new) I definitely prefer this to the other Garnier BB creams I have tried and I think this is largely due to the skin matching pigments in the formula as the standard shades just never seemed to look right. Overall it gets a big thumbs up from me and this has become a new daily staple in my routine!

I really wanted to love this product as I thought it would be great for the summer months ahead, but I was left feeling disappointed. I tried this BB cream several times but just could not find a way for it to work for me. When applied after my regular daily moisturiser it just clumped up on my skin and shed off, so I removed it and started again this time without moisturiser. When used without moisturiser, I found that it just sat on top of my skin and appeared patchy, making my skin look dry - I have normal skin, very rarely have dry patches. I first applied with my fingers as it says on the box to apply as you would apply a moisturiser. I then tried to apply using a brush as if I was using a foundation, thinking it would blend in a little better but was disappointed to find this wasn't working either. I did really like how it felt very light on my skin as if I was only wearing a moisturiser. It has a pleasant fresh scent, and the SPF 15 is a bonus too, although you definitely need to use a sunscreen as well. The BB cream partially does what it says it would as it adds a lovely healthy looking glow to your skin when applied thinly. However, it doesn't give much coverage and almost has an orange tinge to it, so would not work for anyone with paler skin than mine.

I was so excited when I read the word Garnier BB cream nude. The excitement was short lived this is unfortunately just too orange for my skin even with all the blending in the world. I was disappointed as the formula has supposedly been developed with micro-pigments to match your skin tone upon application. The product comes in a easy to use squeezy tube. The cream is initially white and then changing colour once applied. I really liked the creamy thick texture it felt nice and moisturisng going on but I couldn't wear it for very long.

This comes out white and then changes colour, it's lightweight and makes your skin look healthier. At first I was a bit worried because it looked yellow once it started changing colour but once it's rubbed in then you can't tell that you have it on. It doesn't cake up at all. It's moisturizing but not greasy. I really like this.
