Has anyone used this? Does it work? I'm looking for a new foundation/tinted moisturiser & the articles I've read seem to be full of praise for this stuff.

I use the Garnirt one and I love it. Works well for my oily skin and you can wear powder and bronzes on top Grin

Yep I love the Garnier one too! Lovely texture, coverage and shade - I just put a bit of powder on top :)

I haven't tried the Garnier one. I have the No 7 one, for dry skin, and in fair. It is far too dark for me. It goes on fine, but changes after an hour or so, and looks obvious. It also doesn't sit right on my skin (and mine is very dry). It looks worse than nothing in all honesty.

I also have No 17's BB cream, and despite being aimed at teenagers, it is a better shade, and better (but very sheer) coverage.

In truthfulness, I find tinted moisturiser to be better, if you don't want the hassle of foundation.

I use mine most days, I've tried a few including the maybelline one which I didn't like and my favourite is the no 17 one which i bought because it was cheap to see if i liked the general idea of it, i prefer it to foundation at the moment.

LOVE the Estée Lauder one. Light and brightening.

Oooh, you need to look at the Korean ones. Much better than the UK offerings.
There was on thread on here a while ago and many people praised the Skin79 products. Off the back of that I bought a sample pack.
The stuff is bloody marvellous !! Grin
I bought mine from items_dealer in Seoul. I will be buying more!

I have the Barbara Daly Tesco version and it is fab.

Skin looks more even but not "made-up" and it makes concealer or eyeliner stay for longer.
