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.’

It smells really nice. I wish it came in a colour that is in between dark and medium because the dark shade is too dark yet the medium is lighter than my skin. So I decided to combine the dark shade with a little bit of my foundation and after that it actually matched with my skin colour. Its a really good product.

Hmmmmm you make is sound fantastic.. Its like an all in one product which is great.. less fuss and time having to apply. I like that it gives you a light coverage as Im all for the natural look. Id really like to try it out.. I love products that smell divine and leave you feeling fresh. I love that it has an SPF included and moisturizes your skin at the same time.. definitely worth trying it and the price is reasonable!

I feel it gives me enough coverage to not feel completely naked. I think it also works well as a primer underneath my usual foundation (I use L’Oreal LumiMagique). On days when it’s particularly warm, using them together makes my skin feel overly oily though, so I tend to only use the two together if my skin is feeling a bit tight. In my experience, it does deliver on these promises, although with regards to evening tone, I do sometimes wish it could it slightly better, but then I remind myself that it’s not a foundation, it’s essentially a tinted moisturiser, but better :) It definitely hydrates, not sure I wouldn’t recommend it for oily skin though. At around R80, it’s also quite a bargain!

I’ve been using the dark formula for about three weeks and I like it a lot. It is really natural looking and not too greasy – it’s perfect if you are seeking a less made up glowy look.
Unlike other BB creams that tend to mask the skin, this sort of melts into your skin. The colour of the actual product is not the resulting colour once rubbed onto the skin. (or at least that is how it is for me).
I would give it a five if it had a tiny bit more coverage for that wow factor, but it seems as if BB creams are either: (1) super pigmented and act like foundation (these often come in many colours) or; (2) come in light medium and dark and adapt to an individuals skin tone, therefore having less coverage.
This is also cheap in comparison to a lot of other brands.

Second day using this cream I am loving it, as soon as I apply it it blends well with my skin couldn’t have chosen any other cream to use for my skin.
This is my first Garnier product I’ve ever used and I am loving it.

I found that it doesnt cover the darker marks on my face but does leave my skin looking much better and I love that fact that is has sunblock in it as well.
