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.’

BB stands for Blemish Balm. I love this product. I’ve tried BB creams from Korea and Japan, where it’s been a big deal for years. This product is very light, and provides minimal, but very natural ‘coverage’ which is more like a ‘healthy glow.’ Suits me fine, and I feel like that it is benefiting my skin at the same time.

Unfortunately, even though it blended in well with my skin and covered some of my blemishes, I woke up the next morning with a little pimples all over my face. Sigh, so much for BB creams.

Mildly oily, certainly not for oily skin. Good for dry skin and provides substantial coverage with spf :)

I was very excited when Garnier released this BB cream and when I used it, I was so disappointed. It offered medium coverage and left my skin looking shiny. The consistency of the cream was like that of a good moisturiser but it made me look too pale.

I have tried this bb cream and I have 3 words, IT WORKS MIRACLES! in just one step. it does even your skin tone and gives it that glow, which is ideal for winter, as skin tends to dry up. even though it gets a bit oily, I would recommend that you combine it with Garnier Vanishing Cream, just to avoid being too oily.

I tried this BB cream last year. It was not to my liking at all,it has a very distinct florah scent. It feels heavy on my skin and seems to leave my skin oily. Definitely blocks my pores and causes break-outs.
I do prefer Revlon’s BB cream.

Can’t wait to try it out! It’s very affordable also. And i heard it makes your skin feel way better than foundation.

I simply love this bb cream it leaves my skin looking flawless and with such an amazing glow. In my opinion this product should not be used for those with an oily skin type. The product comes in light, medium and dark shades for each skin tone.

One of the very best BB Creams out there. I think I am in love with the scent. gone are the days when blemishes curbed your enthusiasm. With this product you have nothing to do but look your best at a very affordable price as well.

Loved the way my skin felt, but after a while found it oily and the coverage for me wasn’t great at all because my pigmentation was still quite visible.
