I heard the hype surrounding BB creams a while back and I wanted to give this one a try. BB stands for Blemish Balm and essentially is supposed to be moisturiser/primer/foundation all in one tube. BB creams originated in Korea where they are in fact much better than they are in Europe.
Firstly they have a wider range of colours available and many have a mattifying effect unlike the Garnier one. It's quite thick but doesn't give very good coverage and left my face looking very shiny. The upside is, like a tinted moisturiser, it blends in well. It has a pleasant fragrance but to be honest I think i'm better off going through each step individually when I apply my make up so I can't really recommend this product. I've just bought the same Garnier BB cream but for oily complexions so I'll give that one a go and let you know if it's any better!
