Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector Daily All-In-One B.B. Blemish Balm Cream Review...

Whoa try saying that title 3x fast!
So this post is exactly what the title says it is... a review of the 'Garnier Miracle BB Cream' for short as I don't want to be typing out it's full title every time I mention it!

As soon as I heard about this cream and what it was stated to do I knew I needed to go out and buy it. I wasn't 100% sure that it was going to do everything or even work for my skin but alas it is now my holy grail product!!


So what is it??

BB stands for Blemish Balm and they are all the rage in Asia. They claim to even out skin tone, blur imperfections. Some even have skin whitening. The Garnier version claims to do the following...

  • Immediate Perfected Skin
  • Even Skin Tone
  • Boosted Glow
  • Blurs Imperfections
  • Smooths Fine Lines
  • SPF 15
  • 24hr Hydration


I can confirm (for me at least) that this product is a miracle! I have been looking for something that would achieve what this product has for a long time as I suffer from redness and very uneven skin tone.
It is only available in 2 shades light & medium. I opted for Light which is the perfect colour for me. If your wondering I wear NW20 in MAC foundation shades.


The packaging is probably the best way this product could be. A squeeze tube makes it possible to control the amount of product you use. And in my opinion you only need a small amount for your entire face.





It can be used as a foundation itself (although it doesn't advertise as a foundation as its very sheer coverage) or as a primer. I think it works best as a primer if you have blemishes to cover like I do and as a tinted moisturiser if you have skin with no blemishes and you just want to even the skin tone out. 
Now annoyingly I didn't think to take a before shot of me with no make up although it would of taken some courage for me to do that (with my skin in the state it is at the moment) but I do have a picture of me after I used it with my makeup fully complete.




I would never say my skin looks perfect but this is as close to perfect as I think is humanly possible! So what do I think?? This is now in my everyday daily makeup routine and I love it! Definitely 5/5!!

Have you tried it yet? What are your thoughts?


5 lovelies have something to say:

  1. i absolutely love this bb cream too!
    I usually wear a medium coverage foundation, but i've found this works just as well (if not better) with concealer and a bit of powder. And it's much cheaper than my usual foundation & much better for my skin :) x

  2. So glad you got on with it, it looks perfect on your skin! I did a review on it on my blog too, although I'm not particularly fond of it :( it might be because I don't have perfect skin as I have quite a few freckles and redness which requires more coverage :\ maybe once I get older and my skin improves it'll be my holy grail?! xx

  3. I saw this in Boots the other day and was so tempted to buy it. It sounds amazing, I think I'll definitely treat myself to it next time I'm shopping!

  5. I've heard such mixed reviews about this product, I have no idea what to think! I guess I'll just have to buy it and test it for myself :) From your review I get the impression that it's just lovely <3
