My opinion on Garnier's BB Cream

Recently i was sent a sample of Garnier's BB Cream in the post. The Garnier website was giving away free samples which consisted in a small box with three sachets of the product and £1 off your next purchase off the BB Cream or the Tinted Eye Roll On which I have already done a review on (here). They only had one colour left in light, which was lucky as this was my colour :) The product claims to Even, Cover, Illuminate, Hydrate and Protect with Spf15.

I was very happy when it came through the post, and decided to try it out the next morning as i was going out for the day and wanted to see if the product lasted on my skin, etc. Unfortunately I didn't get to see whether it lasted due to the fact that i wiped it off and decided to wear my usual foundation instead. Here's my reason why;
  •  The colour was very orange which isn't a good look, especially due to the fact i have very light skin.
  • Once I had put the product on and rubbed it into my skin the only difference it had made to my skin was make it have an orange tinge.
  • Due to the product being very thick it was quite hard to blend too.


Now this i my experience and everyone's are different and it may depend on the condition of your skin or the colour/tone. Once again i have had a bad experience with Garnier's makeup products, however I do love their moisturiser which I have also done a review on. Personally i would not choose to go out and pay £10 for this product, or even use this product if it was given to me for free. Thanks for reading my opinion on this product and I hope it has helped some of you out there.

Garnier eye roll-on and concealer...

I picked this product up while it was on offer, for half the price. The whole purpose of this product is to cool the eye area to reduce puffiness and conceal dark circles. I find the roller ball very cooling and refreshing, however the concealer is very orange toned and dries very quickly which means it does not blend very well. I would recommend this product, however i would recommend you buy the one that does not conceal in the green bottle. I think people with medium and dark skin tones would benefit from this product more.
Pros: Very cooling and refreshing
Cons: Concealer is very orange against my pale skin

Exfobrusher wash review...

So i thought i'd do a review on this product. I purchased this quite a while back and no longer use it but i thought i'd do a review anyway. What made me buy it was the brush on the top. I was looking for something that would be good at getting into the pores and removing excess makeup. At night i cleansed and toned to take my makeup off then in the morning i would use this to wash my face with. This may sound disguisting but you can tell just how well it's working because the soap in the bristles turns into a grey/beige colour which is the makeup that i hadn't removed well enough. It left my face feeling really smooth. The consistancy of the soap inside wasn't great as it seemed to be very runny/watery. Although i would say its a great product as you can continue to use the brush with your prefered face wash. I would recommend this product.

My everyday moisturiser...

Garnier Body Intensive 7 Days moisturiser


This is my everyday go to moisturiser. When i get out the shower i alway cover myself in it. I thought i would buy the Honey one for Sensitive skin as i don't like using products on my body that contain strong perfumes and ingredients. 


This leaves my skin feeling great, smelling sweet and it also sinks in quickly too which is a bonus. If you are looking for a great body moisturiser and you have sensitive skin i would recommend this :)
Would i recommend it? Yes
