When I opened the box, the first thing I noticed about the new Garnier BB cream was in smaller tube, but don't let this fool you! You only need a small amount and a little goes a long way. I would normally use a heavy foundation every day as I need the coverage for my pigmented skin and BB creams I have used in the past did not achieve this, but this one gave me excellent coverage without the cakiness off the 'normal' foundation. I like the fact it has an spf15, a lovely light fragrance and it lasts all day. My new fave!

I really liked this, I'm not into super full coverage foundations anymore, especially as I'm getting older. This provides the perfect cover, it's light and doesn't look cakey at all. It's also so easy to use, I can use my fingers, a brush or a sponge and it still provides good coverage. It does have a fragrance which disappears as soon as you use it. I'd definitely buy this again.
This product is smooth and easy to apply. My skin is fair so the light colour worked really well to even out my skintone without looking cakey or heavy. Really blends well into my coloring without looking like I have any makeup on. The fragrance takes a bit to get used too, I'd prefer no fragrance at all. A little goes a long way, I would recommend about at $1 coin size amount to do whole face. For a little more coverage reapply another layer once finished first application. Try buildable coverage on cheeks or any areas with redness for higher cover. Hyaluronic Acid helps keep skin moisturised while providing even skin colour.
Tips: Use a small amount - about $1 coin size.
Apply after skincare especially moisturiser.
Apply with sponge or foundation brush for hygienic application
For more coverage build over first application and set with a pressed or loose powder.
Apply a small amount of blush to finish the look
First off loved the box had all the information I needed and ticked all the right boxes then when I opened the box and pulled out the tube wow the texture felt so different with cardboard being integrated into it I thought what a absolute star of an idea very impressed then I squeezed out a small amount and begun using it each day after my normal facial routine and before I applied foundation some days I didn't and wore it alone it's texture and the way it blends is fantastic having a spf rating is fantastic especially if wearing without any other foundations etc it made my skin even out and really did what it says perfecting care all in 1 that is true from my point of view absolutely the best 1 yet.
Tips: Only need a thin layer and rub in good for even coverage
I hadn’t tried a BB cream in while, but have been looking for an alternative to heavy foundation for the summer months. I’ve tried Garnier BB creams in the past and they’ve been ok, but this new formula is a definite improvement. It’s easy to apply in a hurry, even with just your fingers. It blends easily just like you’re putting on a moisturiser. I found that a little goes a long way, as I did just want a light coverage. Some days, if it was particularly warm, I did set it with a powder, but that’s just because I am prone to shine throughout the day. But on other days I just wore it alone over my base moisturiser for a nice evened out but glowing complexion. I love that it has SPF 15 in it and that it made my skin look better but natural at the same time. I was also impressed with the new part recycled cardboard type tube, using less plastic is always a win! All in all, it’s a great BB cream, easy to use, evens out your skin tone, brightens and protects. It will definitely be in my makeup bag all Summer now!
I don’t have bad skin but I do have uneven skin tone with redness. It makes me self conscious enough that I generally wear foundation unless I’m at home (or covered by a mask)
The minute I put on this BB cream I knew I loved it! The scent was nice and not overpowering. The feel was moisturiser like. But the winner was the coverage!
I’m on zoom meetings most days and I was happy to wear it with a little eyeliner and lippy. I love that I don’t have to be “made up” while out and about with the kids but still feel confident.
An added bonus was the environmentally friendly tube - well done!!!
Tips: I applied mine with a makeup sponge
What I remember from my previous BB cream from Garnier is the smell, this is no different, it had an overall aloe kind of smell.
The texture is lighter than previous formulations, and blends in really well, with a really even mid coverage.
For me, I had to use a powder over top as rather than illuminating, it ddi look oily. It looks really nice with a light powder over.
I did have 2 breakbouts withib 2 days of using the product, which I havent had in a very long time..
Ultimately if you want a cheap, spf BB to throw on camping or quick trips this is a good alternative to have in your kit!
Tips: Check your colour! The "light" was very much my summer color which is more a medium..
I am not usually a big fan of BB creams but this Garnier classic BB cream has changed my view completely! I love that it has SPF15 and it didn’t leave a pale look like some do. It glides on easily and doesn’t absorb too fast. I love that it’s cruelty free not tested on animals abs really affordable too
Tips: Can put 2 layers on, let first one dry then build it with a second coat. Helps it last heaps longer!
I had high hopes for this product given the history I have had with the original Garnier BB creams. Unfortunately this one wasn't like it used to be.
When it comes to BB creams, typically I can pick up any brand in Light and it colour matches beautifully. This one however, turned me somewhat Oompa Loompa. Had I been more tan and not so rosey light, it may have matched but wasn't my luck this time.
The texture however was good! Nice and smooth, didn't cake or separate on my skin.
Would be great if it came in a much lighter shade for light/fair tones.
Tips: Colour match if possible. The Light shade is more for those with a summer tan
I was really excited to trial this product as I haven't been a regular BB cream wearer since high school. This product is super smooth to apply and spreads well while still maintaining good coverage. It doesn't dry out my skin the way more traditional makeup does and it gives a healthy looking glow - an essential summer product in my books! I have not noticed any creasing and the product seems to last all day. The scent is pleasant and not too overpowering.
I do think the "eco" packaging is a bit deceiving - it's great that it uses less plastic, but by combining plastic with cardboard it means it cannot be recycled, like tubes made only of plastic generally can. And although any SPF is better than none, higher than SPF 15 would be better for the NZ sun.
I would recommend this product to anyone like me who doesn't usually have the time to put makeup on everyday - it evens your skin tone and gives a nice glow in under a minute. It is also an ideal product for a day at the beach - this BB cream actually goes on fine over a layer sunblock. I will definitely buying this product again myself if I run out before the end of summer!
