This is by far my favorite foundation. I discovered it about a year ago. Before then, I would jump from product to product. The foundation would either not match my complexion, cause me to breakout, make my skin look super oily or was too expensive. I tried Garnier's original BB cream when it first came out and although the colour blended well, it didn't work well with my oily skin. This product is a godsend. I use it everyday. It keeps my skin from being oily, blends well, builds well and is super inexpensive.
This product is just ok. Nothing special about it. What I liked about it is that it's lightweight and it didn't irritate my skin provided that I have a highly sensitive skin. It's something I can wear daily to freshen up my face.
I've recently tried the Garnier BB Cream in the "Light" shade for combination to oily skin. My favorite way of applying it was with the makeup brush as I was able to smooth it out and blend it best this way. It went on as smoothly as a moisturizer would, maybe a touch thicker, but still very easy to blend. I was impressed at how much coverage it had considering it isn't exactly a foundation. The pigmentation was good enough to cover some minor spots on my face without the need for concealer! However, it didn't completely cover my undereye circles or darker spots. The shade was pretty close to my skintone, however I do find it had more of a yellow undertone whereas my skin has a pink undertone. When blended, it wasn't too noticeable of a difference. In addition, I didn't have any issues with skin irritations or blemishes after using this product. It stayed on my face for hours without the need for touch ups.The price is also affordable and you don't need a crazy amount to get nice coverage. The squeeze tube also makes for easy use. Definitely recommended!
I found this product has changed, in a bad way. The beautiful Garnier smell you love is now gone. When you use the product all you can smell is chemicals. I had to check to see if it was past its expiration date, because of the awful smell. I also found it "matted" really quickly and was hard to even out to achieve a non-mask effect that I strive for, as I hope all woman do ;) This bummed me out because initially when the product came out I thought it was perfect.
Love the natural coverage it gives to my skin, and the even tone that it gives to my face is great! Just wish that there wasn't as much fragrance in the product though, but overall it's a great product!
I really enjoyed using this BB cream. I love how it smooths everything out on my face and matches my skin perfectly. I would totally recommend it to my friends. Love it!
Love this BB cream to use instead of my foundation. It doesn't leave my skin greasy and shiny, leaves me with a perfect even complexion. Couldn't be happier!
This product is not something that I enjoy, at all. First of, the color is weird. It's like an orange-ish shade that looks like some sort of toxic. The coverage is not bad, but it's not exactly good either. After a while with this on, my face started to look oily and shiny in a very unhealthy way.
It makes your skin look sinewy. Works well with a setting powder afterwards. Not for very oily faces, and don't use if you sweat profusely because it will just melt your face. (I used it during my summer vacation - wrong). Good for dry weather :)
