Cinnamon Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 (edited) I bought a tube of Garniers new BB cream last week & just thought I would come & say how great it is. It is like a tinted moisturizer,but with a face balm in there too. It is really easy to apply,looks natural but sort of hides your wrinkles & imperfections at the same time - I am totally converted It comes in 3 or 4 shades I think - you can also request a sample on the website. It is £9.99 a tube in Boots,but is on 3 for 2 at the moment,so I have had a little stock up Marvellous stuff Edited November 9, 2011 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Thanks for the tip off! You advised me when I wanted holiday makeup once & were spot on, so I will be buying some of this! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yvonne Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I agree, also, along similar lines there is a thing called "Colour Supplement" in Lush which is a light foundation with not too many nasties in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ali-s Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I wonder if I could get away with wearing this tinted moisturiser at work Make up is not allowed in case it falls into the food, fair enough with things like false nails or false eye lashes but it also includes foundation, blusher or a bit of lippy I have tried No 7 and Olay tinted moisturisers but they looked far too much like a foundation cream for me to be able to wear it at work without getting told off I don't wear a lot of make up but sometimes especially in the Winter I need a bit of colour on my face to stop me looking ill.

Mercedes55 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I had been waiting for months for the Garnier BB cream to go on sale here. I remember reading about it months ago in the Daily Mail and apparently they've been using similar creams for years in other countries. I bought the 'Light' shade and it does seem very nice, much lighter than foundation and just gives a 'barely there' look to the skin I think. My OH doesn't notice the difference when I put it on though, mind you that's like most men I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lillybettybabs Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 oo i'll have a look at that, I,m lazy when it come to make up, i dye my eyelashes so i don't have to faff, slap fake tan on so i don't have to bother putting foundation on. I do use LilyLolo mineral foundation when going out but could do with a all in one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted October 16, 2011 Author Share Posted October 16, 2011 Thanks for the tip off! You advised me when I wanted holiday makeup once & were spot on, so I will be buying some of this! Emma.x Glad to help I actually product test for several companies,so do get to try many new things. Funnily,BB cream wasn't one I tested,but I bought some as I heard how great it was. I am testing a VERY odd one at the moment - its a face primer & it is green,so I just find it totally unwearable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reikiranf Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I am testing a VERY odd one at the moment - its a face primer & it is green,so I just find it totally unwearable Don't bin it yet, Halloween's just around the corner I quite like Hissyfit foundation which is like a tinted moisturiser but has factor 50 Spf, and is good as it doesn't feel like you have anything on your skin & my face didn't burn when we were in Cuba.

yvonne Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Bumped this thread up as I have just seen that Boots 17 have also released a BB cream and wondered if anyone had tried it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I must admit to forgetting I have a freebie of this - I agree its lovely - my skin is very smooth - look will be using my £1 off voucher - thanks for reminding me of it.
