Olay Total Effects Moisturiser Normal UV SPF15 Review

I have normal to combination skin that is a little tired and dull looking just due to where i am in my life.

The packing and bottle is pleasing to look at and it looks and feels a bit like luxury! It has a lid and pump that was easier to use than i first though, and a clear lid to go on top which helps stop it drying in the pump tip. When i pumped it out it was light and creamy and really smooth to apply and absorbed very quickly and felt light on the skin, it has a light fragrance nothing to over bearing though and disappeared after it was all rubbed in. I only needed half a pump for my face and i did use a full pump every second day to do right down my neck. I was unsure weather something this light would stand the distance of the day but it did my skin still felt as silky and smooth in the afternoon as it did when i applied it in the morning. For me this seems like its a great choice as i don't seem to use as much an will last longer than other products i have tried before. If it truly is $14.99 its a steal because this so good but in honesty i have only seen it out there for $32.99 which i think i still good for a decent facial moisturiser in my opinon.

This did everything its says it does it absorb quickly which meant no waiting to apply other product, and i was so surprised to see that my skin just looked brighter and smoother and less tired! while all my fine line and heavy creases were still there they just seemed less noticeable! (well to me) Its only been a few weeks but my pores haven't clogged, my skin is looking healthier and just all round better. It really does what it says it will and is now my regular go to daily face cream i would recommend this to anyone wanting to try something new for there tired skin!

The first thing i noticed with this moisteriser was how easy it was to pump more than you need, the nozzle was large which I often used more than I normally would. It had a nice smell to it and was not too strong. I did find that it took awhile to absorb so left a bit more time before applying any makeup. Not bad for $15 I did not notice a big change in my skin, i have normal/oily skin and it accepted it well (no breakouts). Due to its bulky packaging this one will have to stay at home when going on trips.

The Olay Total Effects 7 in One Day Cream was a pleasure to trial, from the clean and handy packaging, to the great price and the way it made my skin feel this was a winner in my books.

Firstly this day cream has a visible glow and gives your skin a glow from within and an awake look about it, I found it really brightened my complexion on mornings when I was feeling a bit tired and dull, which did in turn reduce the look of fine lines and spots.

It has a lovely texture and is fast absorbing and settling so I could happily apply it directly before I put my make up on. I should also add my foundation sat well on top.

To have the added bonus of SPF 15 which is so important for any skin complexion (who doesn't want to stay looking young and youthful for as long as possible) was excellent. Especially since it does not have that sunscreen feel or look.

To finish I can definielty recommend this daily face moisturiser. If you want to hydrate your skin while protecting it for the elements and achieving a healthy glow all at the same time this cream is for you!

I was chosen to review the Olay Total Effects Moisturiser Normal UV SPF15. I have now been using it for 2 weeks every morning. With it having SPF15 I only use it in the morning after my shower. It’s a rich moisturizer and very creamy, perfect for the winter months but feel it would be abit heavy in summer, personally for me. It has a pump which distributes enough moisturizer for me as I like to take it all the way down my neck but half a pump would be enough just for the face. I rub it around with my fingers and blot it on my face before rubbing in. In soaks in pretty fast and leaves my skin glowing and moisturized. I wait a good 10 minutes before applying my makeup to ensure its soaked in as it is abit of a heavier moisturizer. I love that the pump pushes the product up, it’s on of those the works up so you really get no product wastage when you get to the end of the product. I can’t yet speak on the reducing fine lines and spots but it definitely gave my sleep deprived mum skin a boost and a healthy glow. I definitely recommend this moisturizer and for the price you are definitely getting a great product with zero wastage.

I am so glad that I was picked up for the trial of Olay Total Effects Moisturiser Normal UV SPF15. It's an amazing cream and this is one of the trial I thoroughly enjoyed because of many reasons. Firstly, I love the packaging and it's pump bottle which looks appealing and so convenient to use. You don't need a big amount of cream to apply, just a pea sized is enough and the bottle will last long. It absolutely does what it says and I am glad to say that it is truly magical cream. I am still surprised that I have never experienced a cream which can work for so many skin issues but now I believe when I used Olay Total Effects. After using it for a week, I noticed visible results in clearer, fresh and even skin tone. My acne spots are almost gone and my under eye dark area is becoming better. Best thing is that it is not oily and get absorbs well in the skin leaving a soft and and smooth skin. I am surely going to continue using for more improved results.

Love the small pump bottle this moisturiser come in. It's a great size in your hand with an extremely easy to use pump. I did find that pressing the pump right down gave me way to much cream so I recommend only pressing down maybe halfway. The moisturiser is lovely and creamy and spreads over your face easily. I found there was no oily residue and it absorbed well into my skin. Love how it has a SPF 15 especially for summer. The scent was fine and didn't smell to strongly of sunscreen which I find overpowering in some moisturisers. It says to apply twice a day but I wouldn't use it in the evenings as a night cream as I don't like using SPF moisturisers at night. My skin did feel softer and we'll moisturised but didn't notice any difference in my fine lines but I think it would take longer than 10 days to see significant changes. Overall I was very pleased with this product.

This is a great moisturiser! It's hydrating without making my face feel oily, it's not too heavy so it lets my skin breath, and it's got suncscreen in it! Win-win-win!

The consistency is closer to a slightly thick lotion rather than a cream. Being able to pump out as much or as little as you want is very very handy (in case you're having a particularly dry day). And the cap ensures no accidental pumps in your sink. having the pump also means you don't have to pick it up to use it (I take the lid off before I start my routine).

Of the seven promises, I think it fulfills five of the seven. Namely, it helps with fine lines (via the nature of moisturising), it definitely evens out my skin tone and texture, gives me a bit of a glow, and stops the dryness. Plus sunscreen!

I loved this product from the moment I opened the box. It is a sizeable pump dispenser and it looks really quite elegant. I liked the pump once I worked out "how far down" was my level. I looked at the instructions which said "generous" but I only needed about a 3/4 push down for most mornings. I loved the idea it had an SPF in it but given its June that is more of a nice to have than essential. The scent is light and not overpowering which was a good initial impression. The coverage was smooth and in some ways it felt more like a BB creme than a moisturiser which really suited me on the days I didn't wear makeup. It was definitely a lush and decadent experience compared to the last few moisturisers I have tried which were pretty ordinary.

Honestly I couldn't see the difference but I felt like I was taking extra care and indulging a bit which was really really nice. I will be interested to know how I feel at the end of the tub (I also love that you can see how much you have used by holding it up to the light). Great product to be recommended for everyday use. A couple of folk commented that I am looking very well recently so maybe its down to the total effects :-)

Really lovely and creamy. I find it gives a nice "glow" to my skin. Lasts a good amount of time, although not all day. The SPF factor is great as you don't have to add another layer of sunscreen for everyday activities/winter. Doesn't sting or itch like some others. The bottle lasts a while too as you don't need much.

I quite liked this product. There isn't too much packaging which is good. Plenty of info on the box and is easy to read and understand. I like that it has an spf, I worry less when the sun is out. It has a slight fragrance, but it's not too strong. The consistency is good with it being quite thick and it melts easily into my skin. I like that it comes in a pump bottle. It is less messy than one you squeeze out. Instructions said to apply twice a day but I found that too much and left my skin feeling greasy at the end of the day, so I only applied once. My skin was hydrated all day without the greasiness. My skin mostly looked better, although it didn't do anything for the redness in my skin. I found foundation looked smoother and more even. Without foundation I found my skin looked less dull, and looked fresher. I would pay full price for this product as I liked how it made my skin look and feel.
