Garnier BB Cream product review

Hello everyone! 
Massive apologies for my lack of posts recently I've had a pretty manic time! 
But I'm back with a gem of a review for you all :) 

First up I haven't worn foundation now for roughly 6 months and I tried to put some on the other week which ended up with me instantly washing the stuff straight off ugh!!! So I wanted to test out a BB cream to help with evening out my skin tone. After reading up on several blogs I found the most raved about was the Garnier BB Cream. 


I purchased mine from boots at £7.99 as they have a deal on but I know Asda and superdrug also stock them.  Normally retail at £9.99. 

It comes in light and medium but it's very versatile so will blend from lily white to the blackest beauties. 

So the product claims to; 
Our innovative all-in-one technology hydrates for 24 hours and is enriched with a Vitamin Cderivative. It boosts radiance for a luminous, fresh complexion.

Concentrated in mineral pigments, the formula perfects the skin, leaving a unified, natural look, as though airbrushed.


PRODUCT EFFECTIVENESS*

  • Unifies skin complexion:    90% agree
  • Gives a healthy glow:    93% agree
  • Leaves complexion luminous and radiant:  81% agree
  • Hides redness:  71% agree
  • Skin feels moisturised:  82% agree
  • Skin feels smoother on application:    96% agree

Which I completely agree it's the best thing I've ever come across base wise. The coverage evens skin tones and gives a beautiful glow, it's not heavy or thick so doesn't clog pores, and it's perfect to wear when it's hot. But I love the idea of waking up in the morning and having the same clear skin as you do with it on. No catfishes here please haha. 

My only downfall to this is you need to set it with a translucent powder if you aren't putting foundation ontop which I BEG you don't, less is more ladies.

After. 

I highly recommend this tinted moisturiser it will completely change the way you view foundation. And even for the makes out there who take care of themselves, try it out!!! 

Thanks for reading
