Garnier BB Cream All-In-One Perfector Anti-Age SPF 25 - vault shade: medium

Thank you BR team for selecting me to trial and review this product and share my views with others in the community.It has been a great pleasure to receive and trial different beauty brands during 2021 and so again I would like to thank everyone at BR for making this happen.First impression of the outer packaging was impressive,the description,ingredients and everything else I needed to know about the product were clear and easy to read.I love how Garnier have taken a sustainable approach with their eco designed packaging,less plastic,minimal waste and greener ingredients and this is clearly noted on their packaging.I thought it was very innovative and clever seeing the product in a cardboard tube instead of a plastic one.The lid was a flip top one which made dispensing the product easy,mess free and quick to apply.The colour I chose was light and at first glance I was like,oh my lord! this colour looks way too dark for my fair skin but actually I was pleasantly surprised because it melted into my skin perfectly leaving me with a more even skin tone and not like the "Oompa Loompa" look that I was so worried about.My skin certainly had a healthier dewier look to it and my fine lines did appear smoothed out but I can't say my skin felt more elastic after only using for one week perhaps with longer time use it may.I liked how there was a SPF 25 in the formula although I did feel this rating needs to be more 30 SPF or higher especially in NZ.The one thing I didn't like about this BB cream was the smell I just found it too strong and overpowering although it did appear to wear off as the day went on.The texture was very thin and light and easy to blend into your skin which I really liked so for a day time look with a more "barely there" make up look this is perfect but if you are looking for more coverage then this is the wrong product for you.Overall I do like how my skin looks and feels when wearing this so I would probably buy it because of the anti-aging claims plus it is super affordable and easily accessible instore or online.I feel this is Garniers better BB creams because it is easy to apply and doesn't leave you looking with a "caked" on look,it really does make a difference to your skin.

I haven't used a BB Cream for a while, not because I haven't wanted too, just because I hadn't gotten around to buying any!

The last BB Cream from Garner I used I found to be a bit orangey so was interested to see what this Anti Age BB Cream was like.

Firstly let me say I loved the packaging! The cardboard pack is made from 100% recyclable cardboard and the tube is made with 49% less plastic and the cardboard tube from forests managed with respect to people and nature - yay Garnier!

I liked the colour of the cardboard pack, a nature green. The details on the pack tells you what it is very clearly which is great Anti age and with Hyaluronic Acid etc.

I have been using this BB Cream daily for around a week and have found that it does even out my skin tone, and gives my skin more of a "glow" so that has to be good! I haven't really noticed any improvement anti age wise as I don't think I've been using it for long enough, but I will continue to use daily as I really like it anyway (especially for summer) and think it will make a difference with continued use :)

It definitely hydrated my skin though - I noticed that my skin did feel "greasier" - I don't mean greasy, but definitely more hydrated which is what my skin needs at the moment.

Do like this product and will continue to use and will buy this again as I really like it

Garnier BB Cream all in one Anti-age SPF is easy to apply and smooths over my skin without feeling heavy and greasy. It made my skin appear smoother and the light shade blended in with my skin tone really well. I liked how my skin could still breathe and I could achieve an even skin tone without the heaviness of a foundation. I experimented with using an extra layer of BB cream for more coverage and while this did work, I couldn't disguise my freckles underneath. I have normal to combination skin and I used my usual moisturiser first. People with oilier skin might find the moisturiser in the BB cream enough. When I went out in the sun I used an SPF facial sunblock over the top. This BB cream looks great on its own or with other makeup. I wore it in place of foundation with blush, eyeliner, eyeshadow, and mascara.

Applied well and gave good coverage, hiding marks and blemishes. Quite thick but didn't feel heavy on my skin. I have quite sensitive skin but didn't have any issues with this cream

I love this!

Good size tube, easy to squeeze out a good amount of product and nice clear easy to read packaging in the Garnier signature colours

The cream itself goes on smoothly, has a slight fragrance but its no unpleasant at all. I loved that my face was still my face but better if that makes sense, the coverage was light but easily builds up to give more coverage, handy under the eyes to hide the signs of that terrible night's sleep!

I'm a chronic face toucher and didn't find that any product transferred to my hands at all.

Will definitely be using this over summer, for a nice even dewy fresh faced look.

Highly recommend

BB creams are essential for your make up bag. The Garnier BB cream works as a moisturiser, foundation and contains sun screen. One application covering all three uses. I use the BB cream every morning, it saves time as I don't have to use the other products. The BB cream glides on easily and there is good coverage to smooth out skin imperfections such as fine lines. It lasts all day. My skin feels hydrated. This BB cream is for anti ageing, however, it's too soon to see what the long term benefits are. I really like this BB cream and would buy it again.

On first impression, the packaging was too busy, too much information, however it looked environmentally friendly and the information was necessary. As with everything, I wanted to judge the scent of it - subtle but pleasant. I use my fingers to apply BB cream, and confess I used the usual amount I have used with other BBs. Not needed! Just a tiny bit is necessary, it's very economical to use. The coverage was excellent, it went on smoothly, absorbed well and left just the right amount of colour for me. I was initially concerned it may not last the day, as I wear a mask at work for several hours at a time... it LASTED ALL DAY. Because I have fine lines I was keen to see how it sat over those areas, guess what? Covered them and blended light age spots. I was in the market for a new, more cost effective BB Cream and I have found the perfect one for me. I loved this BB Cream and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a moisturiser with some colour. Your skin, and your purse will appreciate this product from Garnier.

The lure of an SPF factor and 'anti-age' had me immediately. Garnier's BB Cream comes in a compact tube with a pop top and a tiny pourer which ensures there is no risk of over-do or waste. There is a faint, very clean fragrance from the product.

I often use BB cream for sheer convenience, and this one is good. It tones in immediately and, although coverage is certainly not dense, it is sufficient for day-to-day wear. I did not need to apply more as the day wore on. Skin feels smooth, definitely, and I think it does look more elastic as claimed. 24-hour hydration is claimed, that I cannot comment for or against.

In today's climate we need SPF and our face was somewhere that was all too easy to ignore. This feature of the BB cream is worthy of recognition.

I will definitely purchase Garnier's product in future, the 'light' one was right for me too.

As I have got older and older, like many of my contemporaries, I take longer and longer to get through the morning rituals of ablutions and dressing so am ready to welcome anything which can possibly speed up the process.

And, joy of joys, this is one - i have definitely found my new favourite daily product. No more fiddling around with moisturiser, suncream, concealer, foundation etc - one small pea sized amount , quickly applied with a soft brush, a flick of eyebrow pencil and lippy and I am ready to face the world. No more than a minute used. The cream feels lovely and light and gives a smooth even coloured finish. I have been using the "light" version which goes perfectly on my pale English skin at this season but, it is so moderately priced that I can look forward to trying the "medium" as Summer progresses.

In my mid eighties i am certainly not expecting any amazing anti -age transformations but I can report that there is no clogging in any wrinkles and I feel confident I could get away with taking at least 10 years of my chronological age! It makes me feel that good

It is also a feel good to be using a product from such an ethically focussed company as Garnier..

Love this BB cream and loving the tube. This was so easy to apply and certainly dont need much to get coverage. Appeared to make my fine lines disappear. A little hard in the humidity we have had to know how well it hydrates, but will definitely be buying. I love that the tube is made with less plastic as well, better for the environment.
