The BB cream does what it says... it brightens and gives your skin a light coverage. However, I just didn't like the texture. It seemed a bit dry and I felt I needed to moisturise my skin before putting on the BB cream (and I have combination normal to oily skin type). I have very fair skin, and the light colour was simply too dark for me. It's a good product, but it just didn't tick all of the boxes for me.

All Garnier products are officially approved by Cruelty Free International.
Since 1989, Garnier has been committed to a world without animal testing.
GARNIER'S new BB Cream, combats shiny, oily skin, by combining the power of ultra-absorbent mineral pigments for an immediate matte look and perfect, even-toned skin.
The oil-free BB cream works in five ways. It reduces imperfections, moisturises, gives skin a healthy glow, delivers a beautiful matte finish to skin and provides all-important sun protection with SPF 15.
GARNIER'S Oil-free BB Cream provides instant results while also improving the skin’s quality over time. After four weeks the results are clearly visible; skin is less oily, pores reduced in size, imperfections are visibly reduced and skin radiance is improved.
It has a new active ingredient, Mineral perlite - a powerful volcanic rock extract known for its ultra-absorbing properties.
Mineral perlite is able to retain up to two-and-a-half times its weight in oil and water and is five times more absorbing than talc, meaning any excess sebum is absorbed to fight that oily shine. This combined with uncoated mineral pigments gives the skin an even tone and a perfectly matte finish
GARNIER Miracle Skin Perfector-Oil-free BB cream is available in two shades - light and medium.

Wasn't great in winter but love now its summer
This was far too drying for my winter skin and the shade despite being very pale (which I love about it) was still a shade or two to dark for me - now it is summer though and the hot weather and the slight change in my skintone and this is the perfect summer wear BB cream as despite having normal/dry skin the heat always melts most bb creams and makes me look shiny in the warmer weather. This is perfect and it has great coverage, I still use a regular moisturiser underneath for reference. One of the most pigmented/coverage providing BB creams I have tried this is almost like a true foundation.
Tips: If you are rather fair and have tried the other Garnier BB creams and found them too dark give this a go as it is quite pale toned. Works for my drier skin in the summer but not for winter.

Great Product!
I started using this product because a friend recommended it to me. I didn't like normal foundations or compacts because they made my skin shiny, dull and I would always break out the day after wearing foundation. I now use this BB cream daily as a foundation and I don't break out anywhere near as much as I used to and it still covers my redness and blemishes. I love it.
Tips: Do put a powder over the top of the BB cream once you've applied it, just to help it set properly.

Great price!
The thing that got me excited the most about this product was the low price. I have quite dry skin so need to moisturise first. It is quick and easy to use if you don't have time in the mornings for regular foundation. Only real down side is that it slides off your face if you sweat or in the rain...
Tips: Wear powder over the BB cream for a matte finish

Great for the weekends.
I bought this to try as my Saturdays are very busy and I wanted something quick and easy that provided lighter coverage. It blends easily, cuts out the need for moisturizer and sunscreen so reduces my getting ready time and provides a lighter amount of coverage perfect for the casual weekend running around with the family.
Tips: A little goes a long way.

Amazing feel
I have been using this product daily for about a year and it feels amazing on my face ...like the feeling of being gently moisturised but with the bonus of evening out my slightly reddish complexion. I would like it to have slightly more coverage but still find it perfect to wear daily instead of foundation.
Tips: I use a light dusting of MAC mineral powder over this BB cream.

Alright
I got this product because I thought it would be good as I have oily skin. When I got it home I tried and found it very runny especially compared to the normal one. It did give nice coverage but it just didn't make my skin look nice, it seemed to dry it out.

Good Cover
I purchased this cream as I was running out of other products. I wanted something that would even out my skin tone and was suitable for the weekends, this product did all of that and the light colour provided great coverage.

Matches my skin colour perfectly. Love the texture and the coverage. However, despite being oil free, it still causes my skin to breakout if I use it regularly. Not the type of blemish I normally get either, instead they are ones that sit below the skin. As other reviewers have said, within hours skin looks shiny!
