Does Wonders!

I received the normal to dry skin version of this product in my goodie bag from Chick Advisor at the Cinq a Sept event. I loved it so much that I bought this one for my mom at the drugstore so I am reviewing it on behalf of her. She said it blended into the skin well and was very hydrating. The product helped to noticeably cover her blemishes, scars and dark pigmentation! Overall a wonderful BB cream to use on a daily basis :)

Light coverage bb cream

The Garnier bb cream 5-in-1 miracle skin perfector for combination to oily skin was an okay product to use. Although it did provide a tint in shade I felt I still had to apply my regular foundation to get the desired coverage as the coverage applied was light. It did apply well on my combination skin so no complaints there and also hydrated my skin. I’d probably use this product if I’m going for a natural look without too much coverage as it still applied well onto my face and evened out areas that required a brighter look. In terms of affordability it is an adequate product to purchase.

Trying to do too many things at once

I got this product in a grab bag at the cinq a Sept event and I am on the fence about it. It claims to do 5 things at once... One of which is moisturize. As a moisturizer, it gets a big thumbs down. If anything it actuly emphasizes any dry skin you may have by highlighting every little flake of skin that isn't perfectly smooth. As a foundation, it's not great either. At a distance, my skin looks great, but up close, you can see streak lines from the tint. You have to rub this product in like crazy to avoid any lines. The only reason I might recommend this product is because it worked great under/around my eyes. I have dark circles and redness under my eyes as well as a few bumps and milia. I hate using foundation because it emphasizes wrinkles, but this product provided even coverage with no wrinkle lines! I may continue to use it just for that fact - but use a good moisturizer first.

A note about colour: I have lighter skin but currently have a nice tan. I got the light to medium coverage and it's just light enough. When the tan fades I'll definitely have to get the light colour instead.

Decent bb cream

I was a little worried when I first tried the shade, I chose light/medium and initially it looked really light. Luckily, once blended into the skin it actually looked very natural. I'm all about sheer to light coverage, so this is right up my alley. It does a decent job in covering my pores and does mattifying the skin initially. Unfortunately I get pretty oily, especially during the summers so my oils do eventually start peaking through by afternoon. I wouldn't use this for a regular work day as I don't think it is long lasting enough. However, I will use it during the weekends or when I'm travelling and don't need as much coverage or mattifying.

Perfect for no makeup, makeup look

This BB cream looks so natural on me. I have a lot of scars and blemishes. I felt my skin was able to breath, and I still had coverage, great for weekends. Perfect for the no makeup, makeup look.Wearing this I felt confident that I looked nice, even though my imperfections were only lightly covered. There is no scent and my skin was not irritated. I have been wearing this for 2 weeks and I love it, a little goes a long way. I only have one suggestion for Garner, and that is make the formula a little thicker so it is easier to apply without it sliding off your hands or dripping.

Like!

I tried this after years! They have reformulated it to be 5 in 1. The shares are quite versatile since its not supposed to be too pigmented. So the medium to dark was good for me. I like the finish of the cream since it gives a natural finish with just a touch of coverage. Good for days you don't want to apply a full face.

Colour match was bang-on!

I'm wearing this product right now after a full day, and still reasonably matte. This is not normal for me - usually I'm shining after an hour or so. That would have already been enough to sell me on this product, but I have another reason and that is the colour is absolutely perfect for me. I have this in light-to-medium which I actually thought would be too dark, but it is such a close match that the only way you can tell where I'm NOT wearing this product is at the boundary where my summer skin (read here: patchier skin tone) is no longer camouflaged.

Like most BB creams, it is somewhat transparent so if you have blemishes this might not be enough coverage for you. I like the lightness of the wear because it's so comfortable. It'll be interesting to see if this colour will still be right for me in the middle of winter when I'm at my palest.

I'm so pleased with the oil control that this factor alone is more than enough reason to buy this product again when I'm all out.

Fav new BB cream!

I took this product with me on vacation and for 1 week, it kept my skin looking dewy and glowing. I love how smooth it goes on and how long it lasts on my skin. You really don't need much either! I've become a huge fan of this as it does the job really well, given you skin a natural and glowy finish. I'm usually on the go and need a reliable routine in the morning plus I workout so this product really meets my needs as part of my regular make up routine. It's also priced well.

New Favourite BB Cream!

I recently received this product at a Chick Advisor event. I absolutely love BB/CC creams and tinted moisturizers. Naturally, I was very excited to try out this new product. It’s an absolute favourite offering light to medium coverage, easy to apply, it’s not cakey looking on your skin. It also has several benefits as it’s designed to even skin tone, brighten your complexion, provides skin hydration and the all important UV protection. So far I am loving it. This cream gives me a natural, easy makeup look that leaves my skin glowing!

Did not work for my skin

I really wanted this BB cream to work for me since I heard such great things about it. I tried it for a week straight just to give it a chance. Unfortunately, the cream did not sit well on my skin and made it blotchy and oily.
