A new affordable all-in-one technology that instantly evens skin tone, blurs lines and imperfections, a boosts healthy glow, offers 24hr moisture and has UV protection of SPF 15. The formula was developed based on Garnier’s skincare philosophy of providing exceptional sensorial quality in richness, pleasurable application, sensations of comfort, fragrance and nourishment.
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.’

I found this product to be simply amazing. I hate using foundations and base as they’re ALWAYS thick and I can never find the right shade! Garnier’s BB Cream in the light shade is perfect for fair skinned people. It covers you without feeling like it is clogging your pores and leaves you feeling a lot more confident. I’d recommend this product in a heartbeat! :)

It is gentle on the skin. This product is very light and I feel that it suits me very well. Suits me fine, and I feel like it is benefiting my skin. It does cover the blemishes very well and it gives me the confidence to walk with my head up high. I love this product.

Until this product came onto the market I suffered from dull skin that look tired most of the time but now.. My skin has never looked better and the fact that its got SPF already in it makes this a skin care essential!! The product delivers what is promised and I couldn’t be happier!

I absolutely love this BB Cream! It really does what its adverts say it does! I sampled another BB Cream brand and was not happy with it at all! Garnier is velvety and blends so easily and sheer! And my combination skin seems to love it right now. My skin very moisturized. It is going to be interesting during summer though as it may be too oily. I will wait and see!

I started using this BB cream about 3 months ago and it has been my go to BB cream. It has a very cream texture and applies very easily. It has even coverage and covers up most marks. It leaves you with a glow to your skin. It lasts very well with minimal fade. The only thing I didn’t like was toward the end of the day left my skin looking every oily and you need a powder just to soak that up a bit. Other than that I’d recommend this product (in fact I got most of my friends to use this now :)

This is the 1st BB I’ve tried. It has great coverage, evens out skin perfectly & leaves you glowing. I’m usually a huge fan of Garnier products but this BB left me looking like a grease ball and I had to constantly blot my face. I think it would be awesome for people with dry/normal skin cause this makes your skin glow. I hope they create one for people with oily skin.

After all the time BB creams have been in the shops, I still have not tried one. Hard to believe but true. Garnier sounds as if it can be a problem for my combination skin, however at that price I am willing to try it.

This was the first BB cream I have ever tried, and I love it. The coverage isn’t that great, but my skin looked fantastic after using it for about 2 weeks.

After much raving about BB Creams I tried out a sample in Cosmo and boy was I pleased. I went out and got it the same day and have been using it since. Sure it has pros and cons though. It leaves your skin flawless with a healthy glow. My skin is a bit on the dry side so I wouldn’t recommend it for someone with oily skin. I must add though – I have acne prone skin and it hasn’t caused me to break out ever, despite my sensitive skin. I hardly ever use foundation anymore as just a tad bit of the cream is enough. It lasts forever as well. Still have my bottle. I don’t think I can emphasize how much I love this product and I sure am hard to please.

A few weeks ago I decided to give BB cream a try because I was struggling to find a moisturiser that didn’t make my skin oily, dry it out or cause a break out. I tried the Garnier BB cream and I have definitely noticed an improvement, even over such a short period. Some days I even go without foundation now, which I would never have done before. I love this product!
