After the L'Oreal BB cream post, I sent off for a sample of Garnier's new, Miracle Skin Perfector. I was a little unsure about trying another BB but as it has miracle in it's name I thought I'd give it a shot! (logic)
The sample came, as expected, like those you receive free in magazines and as it was late morning and I hadn't gotten dressed and makeup'd I tested it straight away.
I wouldn't normally do this if I had somewhere to be but I only had to go into Uni for an hour so I didn't think much harm could be done.
The formulation was definatley much better than that of L'Oreal's, it was the right colour I was expecting and was quite thick - L'Oreal's version was very thin and transformed into a dark shade once on your skin. I will admit I probably put a little too much onto my face and it looked pretty shiny and wet! (horror) but it really didn't do much covering. It was not the miracle I was hoping for.
(not good!)
I don't think I would try this again but I do still have a glimmer of hope that there is a BB cream out there for me. I don't fancy going around with a full face of makeup when the Summer is here!
Have you tried Garnier's Miracle Skin Perfector? Have you tried other BB creams? Leave me a comment to let me know.
I've always been curious about BB creams.. figured they might sound too good to be true.
