Garnier Perfect Blur Smoothing Base Perfector is a filling base cream that visibly blurs the signs of ageing instantly. Its formula contains light reflectors that swiftly reflect light in every direction, effectively blurring and smoothing wrinkles, pores, imperfections and shine upon application. Apply right before make-up to create a perfectly smooth canvas. Using the product under make-up creates a smooth, more matte make-up finish, while using it alone creates a natural, more youthful finish.

Most reviewers loved the way this product minimised the appearance of their pores, as well as fine lines and wrinkles in a short amount of time. Some oilier skin types mentioned that did need to use powder to control some shine during the afternoon, but most enjoyed the mattifying finish the product provided. Almost all reviewers raved about the effects of this product when worn without any make-up – it gave a natural, more youthful finish. A number of reviewers also mentioned the great price point, as well as the tube packaging, which made the product easy and hygienic to use.

You say:

“There is no doubt that the product does have a ‘mattifying’ effect on the skin and that pores and lines appear less obvious… I believe this product would be perfect for make-up free days when one requires something to instantly and dramatically reduce lines and the appearance of pores.” – cat lover.Read more…
“There was a definite noticeable difference with disguising my fine lines and made larger ones much less noticeable. Obviously the ‘smile lines’ become more visible when smiling/squinting but that’s to be expected. The lines become reduced again once your face is relaxed and no product cakiness happens around the eye area. The visibility of my pores was also reduced…” – maydayismyday. Read more…
“Although the tube appears small, a little goes a long way! The product has a soft mousse like texture, which sits on your hand without collapsing. When applied to my skin, it blended like a dream, leaving my face feeling extremely smooth. It also had a slightly matte finish, which reduced the shine on my skin.” – WhoAmI. Read more…
“My first observation was the silky-smooth feeling of the product. It was very light and easy to apply – it applied ‘invisible’ and within seconds I noticed the wrinkles beneath my eyes disappearing. I also noticed a huge improvement in the size of my pores (especially around my nose area) – they appeared to visibly shrink, and in areas they completely disappeared. I also noted that my skin did not appear (or get) shiny through out the day. My skin looked smoother and more mattified than normal.” – lynnellew. Read more…
“This product felt so silky to apply and left my skin feeling smooth and velvety. I immediately noticed that my pores around my nose and cheeks were less noticeable. I used it after my regular moisturiser and before applying make-up. It was lovely to use before I applied make-up as my other products (BB cream / foundation / cream blush) just glided onto my skin and were easier to blend.” – charlie and tango. Read more…
