Olay Regenerist Retinol 24 Night Moisturiser

I purchased a 2-piece gift pack from Chemist Warehouse as I wanted a night moisteriser. I had never even heard of retinol or what it is good for, but after using it and finally doing a bit of research, I can say I am converted! I have been using this, along with the serum and eye cream for a couple of months now - not always every night, but at least 3-4 nights per week. My skin is so much softer, you wake up and it is still soft. You only need a pea-sized amount - the product goes far. I went to a beauty therapist and she said this is a good product of the shelf too.

I was super excited to try this product for a variety of reasons, first because my skin is so dry the sound of a 24-hour intensive moisturising product is exactly what I needed, also because I have been trying to find a new night cream that really nourished my skin. So, did it live up to my expectations? ABSOLUTELY! The cream comes in a good-sized jar which looked really nice and my bathroom vanity. Opening the jar there is a second lid which keeps a product fresh. The cream is not too heavy not too light and you only need a small amount as a goes quite far. It is very lightly fragranced. To my surprise when I woke up in morning after my first application my skin was still hydrated and plump! After a week of using it my skin has improved each day starting as a very dry parched skin now nice and nourished. I find my foundation goes on a lot nicer now. Definitely recommend this 100%

This is such a gorgeous moisturiser.

Loved the packaging and the fact it has no added fragrance. The cream is nice and thick and feels expensive. It soaks in quickly in the evening before bed and does not leave my skin feeling oily.

I have been using it every second day so far and I love how plump and healthy it has been leaving my skin. So far I can’t tell if it’s improving my fine lines but I’m looking forward to continuing using this product.

Lovely night moisturiser!! This cream is a good thickness, just right i found. Easy to apply, no fragrance. I put dots all around my face then rubbed it all in, at first it feels abit wet then after about 30 seconds my face is so soft and nice. It lasts all night as I can still feel it on my skin in the morning before I wash. I have used about 1/4 of the container in 3 weeks, so I think it will last a while, good value for the cost. Packaging is nice, very easy to read and understand how to use and what it does. After using it for 3 weeks I feel my skin is plumper and definitely more smoother and feels refreshed and hydrated in the morning, and have noticed my fine lines are bit less visible, hope it will do more after using it longer. Very happy with this product as I haven't used many products with retinol before.

I was excited to try this as I am in my 30's now and have begun an anti-ageing skincare routine. I have already been using a Retinol serum for over a year so I already had a tolerance and could dive right into using this night cream.

I kept the rest of my skincare super simple while trialing this so I could really gauge its effectiveness. I stopped using my Retinol serum and just paired this with a simple cleanser in the evening to avoid any irritations.

This product comes in really nice packaging. A purple tub with a silver lid. While I don't think its glass (more of a thick plastic), its very sturdy so wont break when travelling.

As a dry skin gal, I usually go for a super rich, heavy night cream that leaves my skin feeling wet. The finish with this cream is different, unlike any I've used. It dries down really quick and leaves an almost powdery finish on the skin. It still feels very hydrating and my skin doesn't feel tight in the morning.

I've been using this cream now for just shy of three weeks and have noticed a reduction in my problem areas (smile lines around the mouth and under my eyes). My skin also has a noticeable increase in smoothness. I will keep using this until it is finished and provide any updates.

I had the pleasure of trialing the Olay Regenerist Retinol 24night moisturiser. The packaging is pleasant on the eye, I actually really like the colour blue they have used for the package and the jar. The cream itself doesn’t have a strong smell like many other products, it’s quite a mild fragrance not overpowering. The texture is very smooth and silky, and feels silky on the skin. Immediately my skin felt like it had taken a huge drink, it felt silky and hydrated, I’d even venture to say it felt plumper. My dark areas are slightly faded, and I hope will continue to fade with continued use. My skin feels smoother as well. I was pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed this product, as I usually react to the fragrance but I really like this moisturiser and will definitely keep using. I’ve also noticed I don’t have dry patches that I’ve acquired recently so major bonus!

Almost imminently after application my skin is left very silky smooth! Haven’t had this before with any of my creams. I love the texture of the product, not to heavy and is fragrance free! Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a good night cream that does the job and leaves you with great skin overnight.

I actually really enjoyed this night moisturizer. I often find that creams for use in the evening leave me with oily residues when I wake up the next day. With this moisturizer I actually forgot I'd even put it on the night before, it was only when I washed my face and realised how soft and supple my skin felt that I remembered! I'd definitely use it again, it was a lovely surprise.

As a subjective review I think that the fine lines on my forehead have started to soften and look less obvious, even bigger plus.

To be honest when I went to try this I was like hmmm ok another night cream promising the world... Just days before I got this product I looked at my tired face and was like ok time to do something! Container is pretty who doesnt love a bit of purple, after doing a patch test I waited the 2 days and had no reaction so put it all over my face, it was nice and cool and light feeling. i didnt need too much and it spread easily on my skin. There was a slight tingling sensation in some places but only noticeable for a short time. The smell was pleasant not overpowering as some can be. So off to sleep I went and in the morning when brushing my teeth I noticed the skin around my eyes looked a lot tighter, thinking I was still half a sleep I was shocked and in disbelief that something could work so well after just one application! So I waited the 2 nights as recommended and applied again. Same results! I was not dreaming. I am still trying to work our whether you get long term benifits or if it's just a case of having good results the day after you use it, but either way I'm loving it. The only thing that has me hesitant about this product is the warnings that come with it about avoiding the sun and making sure you have a good SPF on the next morning. It also recommends you are not using other products with retinol in it at the same time. I dont know a lot about retinol so cant comment further on it just makes me a bit cautious as to what the product is made up of. Will I keep using it? Definitely, would I recommend it? Highly likely. Would I buy it again not sure at this point would wait until I have used the whole jar and see how I feel about it then but quite likely.
