I first tried a BB cream about a year ago and was very disappointed. I have oily skin so I found that the product was very heavy and very dewy on my skin. I am also very fair so I chose the lightest shade and this was so orange on my skin! I used it once and felt like I had wasted my money. When I saw the ooportunity to try this BB cream I was really keen as so many people use BB cream so figured they cant all be bad. I am in love! The liquid doesn't feel heavy on my skin and it has a matte finish to it. The shade is perfect and it stays on my skin all day without changing colour or sliding off. The coverage is great as well, perfect for the weekend. I will definitely be continuing to use this product.

Garnier Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-Free Review
***THIS PRODUCT HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED. FIND THE NEW FORMULATION HER***
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.

Tips: I applied mine using a beauty blender. I felt this was a better application than my foundation brush.
I have this now for 3 days used on day 1 a little pea size bit goes a long way.i added a wee bit of foundation on Couldnt believe it nice Matte finish. And not horrible feeling when goin on skin. I have a bit of acne on my cheeck get cover it up on day three i have notice a big different in my skin nice and softer acne not as bad. And i didnt apply anything else i just used that. Great colour as i am very olive in the face the Medium was a perfect one for me i had work today when under air con it feel sticky and didnt come away was still there just amazing
Tips: A little goes a long way. Dont over do it.
I have used Garnier BB Creams when they first came out. I thought they were OK but too thick and too pink. I had a feeling this would be the same but was extremely surprised in the new oil free formula.
First thing I noticed, was how the tube was skinny and tall, making it easy to distinguish between the oil free and other types from the range. I was super impressed to see that the colour of the BB cream was more yellow based, perfect for me (I had the light colour) and definitely not what I expected.
The first application (and every other application since) went well, glided on smoothly, didn't oxidise on my skin, and didn't end up patchy throughout the day. The only downside was that it smelt quite strongly of alcohol. The coverage was good, enough to cover my blemishes without any concealer.
All in all, I was very impressed and will most definitely be purchasing this again!
Tips: Always apply with a brush, not the fingers as the fingers increase the amount of oil on the skin.
I am fairly new to BB Creams, I have tried one once before about a year ago and i was not impressed with the results. So i have avoided them since. But after being chosen to do a review on the Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream, i was excited to give Bb Creams another go. I must admit i was highly impressed with the results. I usually suffer from quiet an oily T Zone, but i found this balanced it out and gave me a Matte finish, even after applying it 8 hours earlier my skin still looked great. I will be purchasing this again in the future.
The first thing I noticed about this was the packaging. It's so long compared to the other tubes! Not sure why but I think having it the same size as the other Garnier BB creams would be better as they fit easy into small bags.
The product comes out through a small nozzle which is great as you don't get too much product out in one go. I was a bit unsure when trying this as normal SPF products leave that gleamy feeling.
However this product is amazing! There is none of that shiny after looking from the SPF and for a BB cream it gives amazing coverage! My skin looks flawless and soft when using this. This product is my favourite out of the BB creams that I have tried and perfect for oily combination skin as I put it on in the morning and during the day the product doesn't loose coverage or make my skin shiny as other ones have done in the past
Tips: I would wear this in summer in place of a foundation as its light, SPF, and gives good coverage
I'm a busy active professional and love this BB Cream. It is easy to apply - goes on smoothly with coverage that evens out my skin tone. It has great moisturisng qualities and doesn't leave me with that dry makeup look. because it has such a smooth consistency, I only need a little so find its lasts months. Slightly perfumed with a pleasant smell but again not enough to irritate my sensitive skin. I generally do not need to reapply it unless I have something else on after work and need a bit of extra coverage. I do like the fact you can apply a second layer if you wish. I am happy the product delivers what it promises and have been using it consistently for over a year now. It is quick and convenient to use and travel -safe in the plastic tube.
Tips: It goes on well under eyeshadow as a base!
I have tried about 5 different BB creams - a couple have come close but none have been spot on until now! The Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream Oil-free (in light) is amazing, I can put it on at 8am in the morning and come home at 5.30pm and still not have the oily sheen that I was getting with other BB creams. The colour matches really well, and I found it easy enough to blend. The only complaint I had about the cream itself was that I found it too runny - if it was slightly thicker I think it would be even easier to handle and spread. I loved the long slender shape of the bottle, but for practicality wise I do prefer the shorter wider bottles that other Garnier BB creams come in. Overall I would give it a 9.5/10 - so happy that I finally have a BB cream that works so well with my oily skin!
Tips: Start with a little, it's easy to add more BB cream to build tone and coverage.
I tried this product, and after using it for a day I asked my sister and my Mu to use it, to try out the colouring of this product. It is absolutely perfect! It fit all three skin tones, which are in the medium range, and it had extremely good coverage for such a light and breathable product. It was really good to the skin, and looked amazing! I am definitely going to try it again, because it is one of the only BB creams in which didn't make my face look like some slimeball thing. Great for teenage skin like mine, which is prone to acne and shine. Would definintely recommend, I love this product and it'll become a favorite of mine for a long time. Quite easy to get away with at school too (Not that I wear makeup and break the rules *cough cough*)
Tips: Does not last for long unfortunately, so either do the powder under foundation trick, or use a primer underneath to keep it on all day. Otherwise, my only other tip would to be to use it!
I've had trouble with finding the perfect BB cream before, I've used high end ones, and drugstore ones, and have only ever found one that I've truly loved and thats a korean BB cream, but this BB cream was fantastic. I was nervous it would break me out, or would wear away over the day but it didn't. I've trialled it using different ways, using powder under, powder over, no powder and every single way it looks great. It lasts all day. The medium is slightly to dark for me, but nothing I can't work with. I would most definitely purchase this BB cream again, I'm impressed Garnier, well done!
Tips: I just apply with my fingers, and use a translucent powder over the top, lasts all day, doesn't break up, or cake, looks FANTASTIC!
AMAZING PRODUCT!!!!, i normally have a really oily Tzone, but this product mattifies my skin and kept my Tzone oil free for over 8hours!! it evened out my skin tone and is a nice light consistency that makes you feel like your not wearing anything at all. Ive tried the other garnier bb cream which made me oranage, so i was quite skeptical when i got this! but i will be using this everyday now!
Tips: Applied with hands
