 I have my young face back! August 4, 2008
I've always had slightly oily skin, but aside from some normal breakouts as a teenager I escaped those awkward years with better skin than most. I never used special cleansers or lotions. I never really felt like I needed them.
When I became pregnant with my first child, one of the unfortunate side effects was my skin went, well, wonky. I had weird breakouts, and it became extra oily in some places, but ridiculously dry and rough in others. I tried different lotions, but they either didn't hydrate the dry parts enough or they caused the oily parts of my face to break out worse. I hoped that my skin would improve, and it did in that it grew less oily, but the dry patches stayed. Over the next two years I tried different kinds of cleansers, exfoliators, lotions, etc. but nothing worked. The dry patches had become these red, tight, peeling nightmares and I despaired of finding anything that would help.
I read through some reviews of this product, and decided to try it. I paired it with the Olay Regenerist Deep Hydration Regenerating Cream, and one Tuesday night I washed my face with a gentle cleanser and applied the serum, then the cream. It's difficult to describe, but my skin actually felt better within minutes. And I don't mean I ran my hand across my face and went "oooh, ahhh," I mean just walking around the skin on my face felt, well, relieved. It felt better hydrated than it had in quite some time, and the best part was it didn't feel at all oily.
I didn't expect overnight results, but I did see a noticeable difference the next morning. My skin was far from perfect but it was improved, and much more so than I had hoped it would be. It is now the first Sunday night after I started using these products, and I am absolutely astounded at the results. The dry patches are gone, and there are a few remaining areas that look a little pinker than I'd like, but the redness has faded dramatically. I have little doubt that it will go away completely before long. My skin has become smoother, softer and it doesn't feel tight and dried out like it used to. It also does not feel oily, and I haven't had any breakouts or other ill effects since I started using these.
I apply the serum and the cream once in the morning and once at night. I considered buying the night cream, but I don't think I need to, since the results from these two products has been so dramatic. I cringed at the price of just these two, so I see this as a way to save some money. Given how little of the serum and the cream I need to use though, I think these little bottles will last me a while. Regardless, the price was completely worth it for the results I've gotten. I would highly recommend these products to anyone who is looking for softer, smoother, better hydrated skin. I don't know about any anti-aging effects, and quite honestly I don't really care about wrinkles (I have some, but they don't bother me much). I just want to feel good in my skin, and now thanks to Olay I can enjoy that again.

I love this stuff. Did a great job with skin tone in particular. My skin was very blotchy and now I dont even need foundation anymore. Cannot live without this. Have not seen much change in lines or elasticity. But leaves my skin smooth and even.
Get the unscented one! May 8, 2007
Love it! I'm 33 years old with combination skin and adult acne. I have to use a light moisturizer, because my skin gets flaky and dry from the acne treatments. This lotion makes my skin feel silky smooth, and it doesn't cause any breakouts. I also noticed improvement on the skin around my eyes. I read all the reviews, and I don't think that anyone can expect a lift from a moisturizer. I am not an Olay fan, but I heard/read good things about this product and decided to try it. So far, I am impressed.

I started using this several months ago after seeing it chosen as the best by Consumer's Report. Within a few weeks, I could see measurable improvement in my skin. Sure, not all the deep wrinkles went away, but enough of the smaller ones smoothed away so my 58-year-old skin looks younger.
My skin feels so much smoother and looks fresh. I've had a lot of sun exposure from living in Australia, South Texas and Florida, so I'm thrilled to find a cream that does such a good job. Lots cheaper too than many skin creams.
You'll love how this makes your skin feel! January 10, 2007

This makes my skin silky smooth. I'm 34. I've given this as a gift to my sister and to my mother. My mother is 58, and a multi-pack per day smoker(so you can imagine the shape of her skin). She was simply amazed at how soft this makes her skin feel. In addition to this product, I would highly recommend the microderm abrasion by Olay Regenerist. The two products together will make you feel as if you've spent a day at the spa, at pennies on the dollar!
