Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting Face Cream Review

I’m loving this face cream. It’s in a stunning red pottle that could only be improved if it had a small spoon with it to get the product out rather than sticking your fingers straight in.

I’m not to sure how much it has made a difference to my fine lines but when I put it on my skin feels fresher giving me the confidence to not need makeup every day.

It has a pretty smell that’s not too overwhelming but it reminds me of a conditioner I had previously used.

I’m hopeful to see some results once I’ve finished it. Im finding its the kind of product that i want to use not have to use.

I have just started getting some fine lines, and as someone who has written many research articles on anti-aging face products, I was interested to see how this product would compare to it's clinical trial.

Personally, I can't say I've seen a difference in the fine lines - and maybe the ones I've got just can't be helped. But it did boost hydration, which for some people would also affect their fine lines.

Wrinkles aside, Olay have done a lovely job of presenting their cream in a deluxe looking glass jar. The cream is also rich and hydrating, which is the main thing I look for in a cream.

If you like a thick cream that keeps the skin feeling bright and moisturized, you will like this, but don't expect it to micro sculpt your lines.

I managed to nab a tub of Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream in a previous Beauty Review Vault, along with a tube of Olay 7-in1 moisturiser.

The Micro-Sculpting Cream is packaged in a 50g red pot with a silver screw top lid. The thick white cream inside has an almost perfumed scent, which is not unpleasant, and the cream spreads well and is easily absorbed, so not a lot is needed.

I used a small pea sized amount, the perfect size for my oily skin, and then gently massaged it in an upward circular motion over my neck and face.  One thing I did discover is that it's important not to massage this cream for too long, as it does start to for little balls if rubbed for too long.  Only massage the skin for as long as it takes to gently spread the cream around evenly.

Even though I'm not a fan of tub or pot packaging, I really liked this moisturiser (although out of the two that I got, I prefer the 7-in-1).  The micro-sculpting cream lived up to my expectations and definitely left my skin feeling more hydrated and a bit more plump.

I love this product. It was easy to apply on my skin and left a nice feeling afterwards. It has a good texture. Only a small amount needs to be applied and it stretches quite far. I do feel more confident afterwards and have noticed smoother skin and a shine in my skin. I am yet to see a more definitive sculpting of my fine lines and wrinkles on my face. Looking forward to keep trying it.

I'm slightly weary of trying age defying products due to the fact my skin is both aged but prone to break outs, when first applying this I thought oh gosh it's quite greasy feeling and thought for sure I would wake up with pimples but I was pleasantly surprised that it soaked in quickly and didn't leave an oil film or greasy feeling, I also have not had a break out so it obviously doesn't clog my pores which is a win because so many anti aging creams can. I pop it on both morning and night and I'm sure my skin has a nice glow to it although I can't say friends have noticed as still semi locked down , hopefully by the time we are gathering I will look like a fresher me

Like other products a large pretty box containing the jar inside. I opened this box late the first night and this allowed my sense of smell to really give me an indication of the product. The smell reminds me of my nana, a faint floral scent, similar to a rose. My first thought old lady smell - nooooo I'm not an old lady hahaha. The cream was thick on my fingertips and so I was worried what it would be like on the face. Surprisingly it glided on fairly well. I haven't noticed any improvement, but now I'm getting added bumps on my jawline (so that's not cool). I decided to read the packaging closer and saw the usual doesn't contain blah blah blah. But then thought it didn't say not contain parabens. Hmmmm so I scanned the main ingredient list and there it was - parabens. So that was the end of that. I'm ok with most chemicals in products, but not parabens. So sorry this product i wouldn't purchase, just on this.

First of all this product comes in a real lux packaging that makes it feel like a luxury brand, my only negative about the bottle is you have to put your finger in to scoop out the product so it gets contaminated every time, yes you could use a tool to get the product out. The moisture is such a beautiful texture and absorbs into your skin quickly, I used this both during the day and as a night cream, my makeup stayed out during the day with using this. I did prefer it as a night cream as I felt like it then did it’s thing overnight.. would definitely recommend and as someone who usually purchases dermalogica I now know I can save a little money and still get a great product.

As the title says, this feels like silk on my skin. It feels so luxurious and smells like heaven. It keeps my face feeling smooth and soft daily. As I'm in my late 30's I'm conscious of what I put on my face and how it affects me. So far this has been nothing but good! The packaging is sleek and gives an air of sophistication

The only critique I would have is that it comes in a pottle; therefore I used my fingers to scoop it out. I prefer a pump bottle to keep it feeling clean.
