Garnier Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-Free Review

I have tried a lot of different foundations & also tinted moisturisers but this one comes out on top. I received the oily to combination Garnier BB cream to review and I have found it great for my skin, when I apply the cream it doesn't make my skin feel dry, it feels really soft. I find the consistency of the cream not too thick & not too runny & therefore was easy to apply and blend. To me there is a slight fragrance, I find it reminds me a little of baby lotion but it's only a little hint when you really sniff it otherwise I can't smell anything when putting it on in the morning. I really do love this product as it has given me full coverage & I feel I can wear it during the day with confidence but my face feels like it's wearing nothing. I feel the BB cream hides my imperfections & also my pores brilliantly & it also lasts all day which is great. The last product I was using was a BB Cream by another company & cost a bit more than the Garnier BB cream but I would say the Garnier one is better & so I think the price is well worth it. I have never been a sucker for the packaging to be honest as I find that's just a marketing ploy but the tube makes the application process quite easy, I hate dealing with bottles & never being able to get that last little bit out. I believe it works for me & I would defiantly buy it again, I might go a little lighter next time as I think medium may be a little too dark for me. I would recommend this to my friends to try as I genuinely think it's a great product & as soon as this tube is finished I will be getting some more.

My day starts at 6am every morning and i usually don't get home till about 5pm. I also have to look presentable and professional everyday so my makeup needs to be on point, so i decided to trial this product out for a week, in substitute for my foundation, and i am sooo happy i did and also grateful to be chosen for the trial! Thanks BR Team!

The consistency of the product is quite runny but creamy. However, It offers full coverage as a BB Cream so i was really impressed. From using this product i could also tell that it was made for combination to oily skin, as the shine on my face was generally reduced, which i was quite happy with as i didn't have to use a shine control finishing powder. YAAY! In saying this, i noticed that i never really had to make any touch ups during the day, which made me SUPER impressed, so it is long lasting, and feels very light on. I also wasn’t outside long enough at a time to be able to comment on the SPF fairly.

This has been one of my best friends during the week’s trial, and i was amazed at all the benefits the product provided. The only negative I would comment about would be that quite a lot runs out of the tube when you open and squeeze it, so just be a bit weary of that. Other than that this product gets two big thumbs up from me.

I was very pleasantly surprised but this product, I have previously tried one other BB cream (Anti Ageing cream) which was too thick for me and required separate moisturisor application prior to use. The BB cream Oil-free has a smooth liquid consistency, so you do not need much to get an even coverage. It therefore feels light on your skin. I've stopped wearing regular foundation, but was actually very comfortable wearing this cream. It comes in two shade Light and Medium, I selected the medium. Please note, there appears to be inconsistencies in the shades between BB creams as the medium shade Anti Ageing cream was too dark for me, where as this cream was perfect. I tend to get an oily sheen on my forehead and nose, the BB cream Oil-free gave a lovely matte finish, no touch ups or powder required during the day. My skin can become quite rosy especially my cheeks and nose, the cream gave me a lovely natural even healthy glow. My pores were certainly less visible. I believe my skin remained hydrated as it never felt dry or tight. The cream includes SPF 15 which is great for NZ weather. It has a slightly chemical smell, but is not offensive. BB cream Oil-free comes in box that looks part beauty product, part prescription medicine. I found the packaging very busy with too much writing on it. The tube inside is a nice long slender tube, perfect for makeup bags. The product is recommended for people under 20 to early 40's. I'm nearly 40 and would happily continue to use this product for years to come.

This is a great product which I would definitely recommend to others. It has more of a thin, liquid consistency than I was expecting, so you need to be careful when opening the bottle and squeezing from the tube not to tip it directly down, as too much may run out. Because of its thin consistency it applies easily to your skin, and only a small amount is needed for full coverage. It matched my skin colour well, and had a dewey finish. It was great for a light coverage, but if you have any blemishes etc you want to cover you might want to add more than one layer. It felt nice and light on my skin, and has been improving my complexion over the last few days. My blemishes have been improving and my skin is feeling healthy, though long term results are yet to see! It is great for combination skin, as unlike some heavier creams/foundations it does not feel like there is too much build up on your skin.

I really liked this product. I have tried other BB creams and didnt like them at all. it doesnt feel like wearing makeup at all and provides more coverage than a tinted moisturizer. it lasted well during the day but if going out for night time i would reapply it, a little goes a long way. i really liked it.

I revived my 3 days ago and i really enjoyed using it. The packaging is cute, easy to carry in my handbag for touch-ups. It also has a good price for the quality. This BB cream was super easy to apply with my fingers and flat top kabuki brush, it applied really good coverage and left a smooth almost flawless finish. The only thing i didn't enjoy about this BB cream is it made me break out. When i run out i will be repurchasing this product i really enjoy using it for a no makeup/makeup day and its so natural and light but still gives a good coverage.

what an awesome product! I have an oily skin and this cream is fabulous for oily skin. this cream is easy to apply and leaves mate and even toned skin, with full coverage. my pores looked smaller after one application. I did not smell any fragrance. product lasts all day. The packaging is alright but the box was too big, which makes it disappointing when you see the size of the product compared to it. The product did everything it claimed. Very happy with it! Totally worth the money and totally recommend it!!

So glad that this is a full size product as I'm using it regularly :)

I'm very pale and was a little concerned when I took it out of the box that it might be too dark but it's turned out to be perfect.

It rubs in smoothly and cleanly and feels nice - like moisturiser. Sometimes foundation/concealers give me acne but no problems so far with this!

I have been using this product for a week now, and so far, I'm loving it! I use it as a base under my foundation and so far, my skin is less oily and it really evens out my skin tone!

It's almost like a primer and really does great things towards helping my red skin.

And on the weekends, I just use it like a tinted moisturiser - it's got SPF 15 so you're covered there as well! I will keep using this product - like I said, so far so good.

I was fortunate enough to trial two BB creams from garnier, my other review was not so good, but i am definitely much happier with this bb cream.

The consistency was very thin and runny, but the coverage was excellent. This bb cream had no trouble covering my rosacea and redness. I even managed to build up the coverage under my eyes to conceal my dark circles. This product has a very subtle moisturizer-esque very very faint scent which disappears almost instantly when applied. I have been using it most days and i havent had any break outs or pimples popping up. I have combination oily skin and find that this lasts around 8-12 hours depending on what i am doing during this time. I have tested this out in the rain without any primers or powders and it was fine besides a little fading around my t-zone. All in all a superb product
