I have normal skin, not oily or dry. The cream is quite thick but very fluffy and easy to apply with a cotton pad or sponge. The cream had no particular smell. I found that the cream covered my face smoothly but lightly and had a matt finish. I use quite a lot so it will not last long, however it is not expensive so that is fine. I The cream was easy to use and I had comments on how smooth my skin looked. I would definitely use the cream again as it is quick and easy but a good look for the day.

Easy to apply, with reasonable coverage. I found that the medium shade was too dark for me and had a strong orange base colour. If I tried this product again I would try the light. Ideal for mature skin in its moisturising content and a good base for under your usual foundation. I personally would not buy again an alternative BB cream I am currently using (in the same price range) provides better coverage. I can however highly recommend the use a BB creams especially for more mature skin for that everyday make up and as a good base under your normal foundation for an ultra smooth light finish
Tips: Less is better when using BB creams. I was told only use a pea sized blob -works well for me. Also to match your skin tone perfectly try mixing two colours together, doesn't cost anymore in the long run and you can alter the mix in line with the seasons.
Looking at the 'recommended age' on the packaging, I must admit that I am at the younger end of the scale, however I have become more conscious of how the way I treat my skin now may haunt me when I am older. Overall I found this product to be fantastic. I have used a number of 'drugstore' BB creams, including other Garnier products and I think of them all this has been my favourite. I used the light shade, which on its own would have been a little light, but with powder and bronzer was spot on. I love the consistency of this product. I find it to be smooth and creamy, perhaps a little on the oily side, but I like that I can feel it soaking into my normal-dry skin. The coverage is definitely light, but I read on the box that you could apply a second layer for increased coverage. I did this, and was pleasantly surprised. It did feel slightly heavier on the skin and I would say the coverage was still light to a very light medium. I enjoy products that allow my freckles to show through and light coverage is totally acceptable for my daily job. The scent is not as strong as other Garnier products I have tried, slightly chemically but I enjoy it, it reminds me of clean! For a night out I also apply it under my foundation as it just gives a smooth base for liquid foundation to stick to and provides another layer of coverage. As far as its anti-aging properties go, I am unable to comment on the anti-wrinkle claim, but my skin definitely did feel firmer.
Tips: Do try the tip on the box about doubling up on layers for a slighter greater coverage.
Have used the regular version of this product, but not the anti ageing version which I thought was kinda average. But so far I am loving this product, goes on nice and smooth, great coverage does leave my skin dry or with to much of a make up look. Lovely fragrance to it. Only down side for me was colour a bit to dark which is surprising because I normally use medium. Over all really really happy with this product and will definitely continue to use.
My skin is fair and I burn very easily. The product is a great consistency, rather creamy and very easy to apply. I apply using my fingers and just a little bit goes a long way it blends in well. There is a slight fragrance when you apply it, but after application I can not smell it. As we get a bit older we want something that will cover some of our sins, and this works well, covers blemishes and redness. I use this product every day for work, and it lasts me the whole day, no touch ups required. The price is good value for money and I would buy this product. I have put my mother onto this and she is enjoying using it as well.
Tips: I use a serum on my face before applying the cream, I feel like it gives it a 'base' and lasts the distance.
I enjoyed using this BB cream , I am 49 years old with dry dehydrated skin . It has a pleasant fragrance and a smooth texture . I applied this cream like a moisturiser rubbing between my hands and stroking all over my skin , it applied well and evenly with a light coverage which I love as I hate to be heavily made up. My skin felt well moisturised and dewy and natural looking with an all over even tone . I would imagine this product would suit the dry complexion best and not the oily .
Tips: Apply a concealer over any blemishes first for coverage as this cream is light for coverage
I was quite eager to give this a try as I had used a BB Cream in the past and been dissatisfied. I was pleasantly surprised! From the fragrance to the consistency to the coverage...I couldnt fault it. I applied it with my finger tips and it went on easily and quickley. The first day I used it , I just applied one coat and that was sufficient because it was a Sunday and I wasnt working but for work I did reapply about 10 minutes after ther first application see how that would go and it gave me very good coverage. It looked good all day. At the end of the day I washed it off with my usual cleanser with goods results. I would recommend this product to people who were looking for a BB Cream. I found it thick and creamy with a smooth consistency and lovely fragrance.
Tips: For a light coverage I applied one coat but applied a second coat for more coverage for work.
The first time I used this product I was unsure if it was right for me. Having never used a BB Cream before, I expected it to work more like a foundation and give me the cover I was used to. However I persevered and I now feel in the right environment - this product has it's place in my cosmetic bag. I would only use this product on the weekends or around home. While the product did give my skin a glow, I really am a fuller coverage girl. I will continue to use it - and who knows in time I may be converted!
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.
Tips: I would use the BB cream as a base to your normal foundation for greater coverage .
Great product and very easy to apply. I would use this regularly in the mornings only for a day foundation, however it is a little greasy and you need to add a powder over the top to stop the shine. Can't use at night after a shower as if feels like you are going to bed with makeup on!
Tips: Don't use in the evenings
