This is alternately the best bb cream and I purchase it every month. It keeps my skin clear and shiny. Also it has hyaluronic acid which keeps face very clear.

What I like about this BB cream is the amazing smell it leaves on your face all day and it feels light. As I don't wear foundation and prefer a natural looking face, it didn't provide the coverage level I had hoped it would. Also wish it came in more skin tone options.

My very first time purchasing a bb cream and the lady in dischem recommended that I take the light color.
There wasn't any testers so I just had to go with her advice and I don't think this one works for my skin tone.
It doesn't cover much, but does however minimize my pores. It also smells really well.
It washes off quite easily and doesn't stain.

This is the product that I use as my make up. It is light coverage but does the job. I have been using it for a few years. I do prefer the oil free version though.

Having skin which is prone to break outs it's always been very difficult for me to find make-up which could not only look great but also ease my break outs.
I've purchased and used this BB cream around 3 times now and I've had a really good experience with this product. It goes on smoothly and provides a decent cover (not 100% coverage) but i'd say about a 80% coverage of the dark marks on my face. My skin feels softer without too much of an oil build up.
I love the fact that it does not feel heavy or sticky on the skin and I've also noticed that my dark marks are beginning to lighten up a bit. The down side is that it does not come in many shades and it does not last all day as it kind of soaks into the skin after a few hours.
It can be found in almost any stores which sell toiletries at a great price so I would definitely recommend this product to others

First things first, there is no shade range. I bought the medium and had to go back the next day and buy the dark - Im an NC42 btw. Even after mixing the 2 shades, I still looked weird. It felt sticky even after applying a setting powder - which is something I don't want to do if I'm just slapping on some BB cream and trying to have a light coverage look. I broke out a few days later and had to throw it away. I spent close to R300 on this and was not impressed.

I have been using this BB cream for a period of a year, this BB cream is a must have, it comes in two shades(light and medium), I had to mix the two shades to match my skin shade because medium was a little or maybe too dark, I love the fact that it blends so well and smells good too, it provides a light to medium coverage. If you are looking for a natural look, this BB cream is for you.

I have been using garnier BB cream for more than a year. I searched everywhere for a product to cover my blemishes until I found Garnier BB cream. It has since become my daily bread as I cannot leave my house without it. It covers my blemishes in no time and so easy to apply I don't even need any further make up and foundation. Its not expensive and even if it was it would be worth it as it goes a long way. Definitely a must have ladies !!

I've been using Garnier BB Cream since it first came out, and it's definitely one of my holy grail makeup products.
It smells absolutely amazing, and a little goes a long way with this product so it lasts for ages! No other drugstore BB Cream can beat the price or quality of this one.
It has a light coverage, yet evens out your skin perfectly & reduces the appearance of any blemishes and dark marks without looking too heavy.
The best thing about this product for me is that it has spf & is so moisturising!
10/10 would recommend I love this product

I recently started this whole BB Cream thing just before applying your make up and this has worked amazingly good for me. Garnier Pure Active BB Cream simply blends in perfectly with my skin and because I tend to get oily with my foundation, it has helped with its matte effect.

Garnier Pure Active BB Cream just become my best make product for days. Does the job as both a primer and a foundation .Very light on the skin and the matte effect holds for longer then I anticipated it would ,its very hard to get a BB cream that does add to my oil skin trouble but I can confidently say I have now.
Great on the pocket too for on R79,95 that's quite reasonable .You can find The Garnier Pure Active BB Cream at your nearest Dis-chem,Clicks,Edgers,Foshini stores and online stores. Invest in this product and you'll see how it makes life easier.

This is a staple product for me. I've been using it for a while now and it keeps my sensitive acne prone skin in check. It has decent coverage for light makeup days, and it's also great to use as a sort of primer under your foundation for really full coverage look. Hasn't caused any breakouts or excessive oiliness so far. Love it!

I was in search of a good BB cream and people recommend other brands that were so highly overpriced.
I needed something affordable that would make my skin look amazing on no make up days, which is usually Monday to Friday due to gym.
I tried it on today and it does wonders to your face appearance. I had a glow that looked like I really put affort into my daily routine. My husband couldn't stop going on about how great I look with the new glow I had aquired from the product.
It easy to use and under R100 which makes it perfect for daily use.
The B.B. Cream doesn't leave your skin feeling or looking oily. I finally love my skin again

I will admit I am not one for a heavy face coverage fortunately for me I get the once a month breakouts which a little a bit concealer can give the extra help with, but to give my skin a glow by adding some color and dimension. I simply love using the these products below they might not be the heavy coverage but they are great options to add to your makeup closet if you want coverage but with a much lighter feel and they are all easy to find in stores.
Garnier Pure Active BB cream in the shade Light might be the most affordable of them all but one of my favourite BB creams to use, it gives me the coverage I want but to helps keep skin hydrated, protected, and keeps my blemishes and redness under control. The BB cream gives my skin a mattifying look and helps with uneven skin tone you might have, it does help with the effects of the sun on your skin but is not an SPF cream. The BB cream comes in shades Light, Medium and Dark which you can blend to suit your skin tone. The Garnier Pure Active BB Cream retails for R99.95 at various Clicks, Dis-chem, Foschini and Edgars stores nationwide.
