Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting Face Cream Review

When opening the stylish heavy red jar you see thick cream and if you have combination skin like me you think.... "oh no" this looks as rich as the jar.... But much to my surprise the skin soaks it up and it doesn't leave a greasy heavy feel at all. It leaves skin soft, hydrated and somehow even makes the skin tone more even. Loving it and now will stop the search for my daytime cream as I've found "the one"

I love Olays creams and the regenerist cream is no exception. Regenerest feels super luscious putting on the consistency of this is the best I have tried from any creams. Regenerest is great for hydration, healing pigmentation, age spots, acne scars, fine lines I would definitely buy this again!

I'm loving this as a night cream. It's quite thick, but light enough to apply easily, and it sinks in well but leaves a soft, dewy feel on the skin (which I like, as I have very dry skin). If I apply it at night, I wake up in the morning with super-soft skin that actually still feels hydrated, nourished and comfortable - and even slightly plumped. For someone who always wakes up with parched skin, this is heavenly.

The cream's packed with dermatologist-approved ingredients, and while I can't say my face looks 'sculpted', my skin texture has definitely improved, and it's only been a week!

I'd prefer a hygienic pump bottle, but the jar's cool (heavy, dark red glass) with a well-sealing lid, so it's not bad. I also prefer unscented, but the fragrance is light and pleasant and doesn't irritate my sensitive skin, so that's not a deal-breaker for me either. And you really don't need much to cover your whole face and neck, so it's pretty economical (especially if you get it from the BR vault, like I did :)).

This product os absolutely amazing. My skin feels nourished, and very soft. Makes my skin feel firm like it did in my 20s. Didn’t expect this from a product you buy from a local drugstore. Would definitely use this moisturiser again!

I’m really enjoying this moisturiser, my dry skin soaks it up and it keeps my skin feeling moisturised through the day. I noticed a small improvement in my forehead lines, which I didn’t expect any improvement at all, so I’m happy with that result, with continuous use I’m hoping to see more of any improvement. I will likely purchase this again!

I have a very specific skin type I feel like (EXTREMELY dry, but oily in the T zone, prone to eczema around my eyes, so I need something very hydrating in that area specifically. I also worry about fine lines forming around my eyes as the dryness in that doesn't help. I also have very large pores on my nose. With that said, I'm about one week in to using this cream and so far I am liking it! You don't need to use much at all, it goes a really long way and is rather moisturising. I wouldn't say it's the most moisturising cream I've used but I guess that's not it's slogan really. I haven't noticed a decrease in pore size yet or reduction of fine lines- HOWEVER I would say the puffiness around my eyes has definitely decreased and my skin is so nice and soft and smooth. And I am only a week in to using it. The only negative I really have to say about it is a did struggle to get the inner lid/cap thing off at first- but that's a packaging critique not the product itself. Overlap, as a woman in her late twenties, I wouldn't say this a fantastic option for woman with normal, dry or sensitive skin (it didn't seem very perfumed which is wonderful).

I’m going to start with the packaging - nice and simple and very Olay with the red jar! I generally prefer a pump bottle over a jar but the jar was pleasant enough. Weirdly though I found the little inner lid quite hard to get off on this! Maybe I should have just done away with it but I always figure they must serve some purpose I’m yet to discover!

The product itself is lovely and thick, thicker than I would normally use as a day cream and I have to say I did find it left a sort of chalky feeling on my skin for a bit after applying, but once that absorbed (say 30 minutes) my skin felt great! It is quite scented which I know might put a lot of people off, I can’t help myself and I really enjoy scented products.

So the results! My skin definitely felt softer straight away and firmer after just a few days, and I had more even skin tone after a week. I have combination skin and this really did help my dry patches. As far as wrinkles go, I have finer lines and my skin definitely felt plumper. Visually I don’t think there was much deference in my lines though - so not a magical eraser but I would say it gives realistic results. I’m certainly going to keep going to see what results might come for my fine lines!

Overall I enjoy this product but will probably switch to just using it at night time going forward!

Hardly has a Scent which is great as I have sensitive skin but this didn't affect it at all. You only need a little bit as its quite a thick consistency but my skin has felt so hydrated while using it. I'm not sure my skin looks higher but it's only been a few wks, maybe I'll notice it more in a month. I have noticed the puffiness under my eyes is lessening since I started using it.

I've been using it morning and night and I like the fact its quite light, which means if I was wearing my makeup everyday it would probably be ok under my foundation.

Overall it's a really good product & I have seen the price in stores which is really reasonable so would probably still use it even if it doesn't firm skin as its great at hydrating. But I'll continue to use and see how it goes.
