Garnier BB Cream Original
Not only is this the OG BB Cream - with the brand now having five BB creams under their belt - it's probably the best one. While it started the trend of BB creams, especially in Australia, it is still an all-time favourite. It's consistency is thick, meaning you get great coverage, but it's not heavy on the skin. It will give you radiance, will blur imperfections, and make you feel gorj.
