What we say:
‘If there was ever a product that I could say makes me feel like I’m literally glowing, it would have to be the Garnier BB cream. When I apply a thin layer onto my face using my fingers, it simply glides onto my skin while the pleasant smell makes me feel refreshed. It blends so well into my skin and gives that luminous look. I feel like I can conquer the world!
‘I am not a fan of thicker foundations so this product really is my new favourite. The BB cream, which is actually known as a blemish balm, is used to treat, protect and even skin tones. The Garnier BB cream has an SPF of 15 and offers 24 hours of moisture. My skin never feels dry at the end of the day.’

This is one of my favourite BB creams. I have combination skin and it works perfectly for me. It is nice and light on the skin, and does not leave my pores feeling clogged or as if I am wearing a mask. Their colour range isn’t that great and I often find that the lightest shade only really works in the winter. However, it is easy to blend into the skin using only your fingers and leaves your skin tone looking evened out, whilst protecting it from sun damage, and thus aging with an SPF of 15. I definitely recommend this BB cream!
I love Garnier BB cream.
This product left my face too shiny, but my mum loves it. I now use the Garnier oil free BB cream.
I use the BB cream for oily skin. I love this product because it leaves my face looking matte and helps for my skin imperfections. I have a problem with my T-zone being very oily and this helps to keep the oiliness away.
The product is great. It stays on the whole day and the best part is that it doesn’t rub off your cloths. I’m totally happy with it.
This product comes in a great package it is great summer product especially in the African heat as it offers protection like most products it needs to be paired with sunscreen for that extra protection. I found that it leaves you with a light lather feeling, but I found it difficult to find the perfect shade as I am yellow skinned,and it only comes in 3 shades the meduim shade left me looking rather pale and the dark shade I don’t even want to imaging it was like I applied mud! I feel this product doesn’t provide moisture for me especially because I have a dry skin especially during these windy / cold autumn days.
It’s a great product but I feel it is not excellent on it own it needs a complementary product to go with it.
I’m not a fan of wearing foundation everyday. I prefer a tinted moisturiser or a tinted sunscreen. But since using BB cream, I doubt I’ll go back. This BB cream does everything it says on the bottle. It gives your skin a smooth glowing appearance. The only down side to this product for me is when I wear it over any kind of sunscreen it becomes rather oily. Sunscreen on its own is fine. BB cream on its own is fine. But somehow the combination is rather oily. Overall a great product with a great price!
Garnier’s new oil control BB cream has changed my make-up regime permanently.
For many years now I have tried to find the perfect light cover foundation to give me an even tone without looking caked with make-up.There has never seemed to be a product that gives you that extra confidence boost without the constant panic of this foreign substance seeping into my pores.
Mixing foundation with moisteriser in order to thin it did achieve the lighter feeling application but left my face looking oily and exuding a permanent shine.
All this changed with Garnier’s oil controlling BB cream. The cream is light and gives you a natural look while ensuring you feel confident throughout the day.
The colours available are somewhat limited but are generic enough that a bit of bronzer or powder to finish ensures a completely natural tone.
I’d advise any ladies without problem skin or the rare outbreak to try this product. It has the perfect amount of coverage without you feeling like you’re wearing make-up… it’s like magic!!
I love this BB cream. I’ve used up two tubes already and I’m going to buy a third one. I have very pale, dry, sensitive skin and this stuff doesn’t make it oily or gives me break outs. The colour match isn’t 100% perfect, but it’s not so bad that you can’t get away with it. Also, I don’t think this specific one will work well for oily skin, because it does seem to have a bit of an oily texture. I like the smell. It’s kind of citrusy. Awesome product!
Apart from it being the cheapest BB cream in the country, it is a true skin perfector. It mosturizes the skin leaving it soft. What I like most is the oil&shine control effect. For all those ladies who like wearing less make up like me, this is the product for you. This BB cream covers your blemishes perfectly like wearing foundation. Thumps up for this one.
