Garnier BB cream

Hello everyone!

Today's post is one I have been meaning to do for a couple of months now as I was sent a sample of the Garnier BB cream back in July some time! When I was sent the sample I hadn't heard of BB creams before but as I've delayed writing this for months I am now aware of lots of other brands who have brought out their own BB creams and have read reviews of many of these, both good and bad.




Unfortunately, I am not impressed by this BB cream. The colour I was sent was 'light' and is the lightest colour they do. As you can see from the photo above, this shade is still too dark for my skin and when I rubbed it in it looked like I had an extremely bad fake tan eek! However, even the coverage of this product was extremely poor.

However, even though this product isn't right for me I think the idea of a BB cream is great so I definitely want to try another brand!

What BB cream would you recommend?

  1. The Maybelline Dream Fresh BB cream is quite good, and I love the Witch BB cream too as it blends out fine even on my pale skin. The best BB creams tend to be Korean though as they're where they started - you can find them on eBay :) Skin79 are meant to be a good Korean brand x

    1. Also Garnier have come out with an oil free version of this BB cream that's apparently much better! I hated this one too but would like to try the newer version as it's meant to be much improved. Sorry for the double comment! x

  2. Unfortunately I bought this and was also really disappointed. The maybelline one is much nicer though :) takes a little while to soak in but the results are fairly nice once it has :)
