    Went and bought the Garnier Miracle skin perfector BB cream in medium yesterday and am very disappointed :(

    To me this is just a hyped up tinted moisturiser and i didnt see any difference between this and Nivea tinted moisturiser that is half the price. It gives a shiny finish (rather than dewy) which i hate, so i put my foundation straight on over it. Ill give it 2 more tries and if i still hate it, ill happily post it to someone here if anyone wants it. Good for holidays or going to the beach etc but not for work for me unfortunately. 3/10 for me

    Anniehoo, consider setting it with a loose or pressed powder to reduce the shine. Have a heard more than a few people being disappointed by this. I really don't think BB Cream should have been taken on by a major company. The niche Asian companies have it down to a fine art at this stage!

    If it's a good tinted moisturiser-esque product you're after instead of relying on your foundation, consider Liz Earle Sheer Skin Tint or Lush's Colour Supplement. I recently did a comparison post on these and they are both excellent products with good coverage, good wear time and no nasty shiny finish!

    I tried this too and was not overawed. I found the light colour was quite deep and not suitable at all for pale skin. I didn't notice any airbrushing of imperfections and I thought the coverage was really quite heavy, I wouldnt buy a tinted moisturiser with this much coverage myself.
