Review on Garnier BB Cream

 

Garnier BB Cream Miracle Skin Perfector - Combination To Oily Skin 

Garnier makes, of my knowledge, 3 different BB creams one for sensitive skin, one for normal to dry skin and the one I've got oily to combination skin.  
The one for combination to oily skin comes in two different shades, a light one, the one I have and a medium one.
   
I have used the product every day for a little more than a week now, and I'm pretty satisfied with it.
 It does have a few flaws though.  

If I do my daily routine, using my Clinique three step system, my moisturizing spray, use my moisture surge on my dry spots, and then use the BB cream, my skin gets a bit greasy. Putting some powder on top of it easily gets rid of it though.  
If you don't use anything but the BB cream as your moisturizer, I don't believe any powder will be necessary.  

It's not a super easy to work with product, I find that if you're not quick and carefull at putting it on it easily streaks, because the skin absorbes it very quickly. 

Otherwise I really like the product for its undertones, I find that many drugstore concealers, BB creams and foundations in the light shades have reddish undertones, but this product has yellow undertones which fits perfectly with my yellow/greenish undertones. I also like it for its amount of coverage, it doesn't give a full coverage, but it does cover well for a BB cream.   

I'am probably going to purchase this product again, but I will also try out others and see if I can find a better one. 

Do you know of any good BB creams I should try?? :)
