Olay Antioxidant (Vitamin B3, C, E) Moisturiser

I was excited when I got an invitation for this trial. This is supposed to give you smoother and healthier skin in just 2 weeks. I was keen to put it to the test!

I am in my early 40's and have dry skin with some fine lines. My skin can be sensitive and prone to breakouts so I have to be careful what I put on it. It comes in a 50g pot with a screw on lid. I don't like dipping my fingers in so I use a small clean spatula to get the product out.

It is a lovely thick consistency and has a nice citrus scent which I like. I apply this after the serum, you only need a small amount. I find if you use too much it will leave your face feeling sticky. So just remember less is more!

My face is left feeling hydrated and super smooth. I get no irritation or redness at all. I have really enjoyed using this and I feel like when used with the matching serum they make a great duo. The fine lines on my forehead and around my eyes have softened and I have not had any dry skin at all. I definitely have healthy looking skin and am looking forward to seeing more results with continued use.

The pot is a good size, strange shape lid (made it a bit awkward to open sometimes) but doesn't deter from the light, softly fragranced cream inside.

It's easy to apply, not greasy or heavy feeling on the skin. Can have a slight tacky gluggy feel if you apply too much and it doesn't rub in.

My skin was well hydrated, no dry skin spots over the last 4 weeks, soft to touch and feel it has definitely made it glowing.

I have always loved an Olay moisturiser and this one is the same! I loved using it morning and night over the last 2 weeks or so. It has a slight fruity scent but nothing too overpowering and the texture is nice and creamy but it doesnt leave a residue. It goes on nicely, is easy to rub in and absorbs into the skin quite fast. I have had a few compliments on my skin lately which isnt common and i put it down to this moisturiser. My skin is so much softer, smoother and more hydrated. With the change in seasons my skin had been a bit more dull with signs of dryness but this has brightened my skin up.

As a background to my skin type, I have combination skin that is typically oily on my nose/chin and normal elsewhere. I’m prone to the occasional breakout on my chin. I turn 30 this year and due to this I'm starting to think about using products that will address any early signs of aging.

Growing up, my only exposure to the brand Olay was that my mum would use their sensitive moisturising lotion religiously! I can still smell the exact lotion she used in my mind! For this reason, I never really considered trying Olay products as I always associated them with my mum's generation. Well I'm happy to report that this trial has completely changed my mind on Olay and this product is certainly not my mum's moisturiser!

I really like the packaging. It's a heavy feeling red plastic pot with a silver lid that certainly looks expensive.

Now on to the actual product… The first thing I noticed when I took off the lid is the smell. It smells deliciously tropical to me, and certainly nothing like the Olay lotion my mum used. The moisturiser itself lightweight yet creamy at the same time. The first time I used it, I used more product then required and it took a while to absorb. After this, I used less product and found that it covered my whole face easily and absorbed nicely after about a minute. A little goes a long way!

My skin looked glowy after use and never felt dry or too oily. Although I can be prone to breakouts, I never experienced any while using this product. My skin does look smoother, healthier, and softer since using this product.

Overall, I’ve really enjoyed using this product and I’ve liked the effect it’s had on my skin. If you have oily/combination skin, want to address early signs of aging, you’re looking for a moisturiser that makes your skin glow, and the price suits you, I would certainly recommend giving this product a try! Don't write off Olay, they've undergone a serious upgrade since I last looked!

This has to be the best moisturirser that I have tried, I am so impressed with it.

My skin is so soft and glowing, The texture of my skin has improved, there's no irritation and my face is left feeling hydrated and healthy,

I love how the formula is non greasy and it doesn't clog my pores- that is a big bonus for me. It has a smell to it but that disappears after application. This is an overall good moisturiser.

I used this with the Olay Antioxidant Super Serum and I am very happy with the results.

Wow I've got to say this is actually absolutely amazing stuff. For someone who has sensitive/combination skin and finds most creams and serums still causes my skin to get oily this actually doesn't seem to do it. I was using the cream in the morning and serum at night and my skin is a lot smoother than I thought it would get. Love the warning about using sunscreen and not being in the sun for a prolonged time which in all honesty I don't have issues with anyway but thinking about people that would be out in the sun daily it's great to see.

This is an affordable moisturizer that smells nice and hydrates my skin. The seal under the lid was really hard to get off but having done so it now does it’s job perfectly. I have used the Moisturizer every day in conjunction with the Serum. I felt my skin responded well, I have normal to dry skin and it helped to plump and hydrate, I liked the feel and texture of it, it wasn't greasy and gave an easy base to my make up.

The moisturizer had a pleasant scent that I found quite nice (I’m really not a scented facial product girl as it normally irritates my eyes) but this was lovely and didn’t linger. The mosituriser doesn’t appear to contain any SPF so I do need to be mindful of this. I felt that the pottle was a generous size and after using it in the morning and at night there was still a lot of product left so I feel whilst it isn’t a cheap product it is good value for money.

I love love this product. I’ve been using this as part of my skincare routine morning and I have noticed that my skin feels softer and smoother. Especially my neck area which has become problematic with age. I absolutely adore the fragrance, it smells just like a Peach Smoothie. It soaks in instantly and is just perfect for under makeup. I have used the original Olay for decades and this beats it hands down. Will be my new go to.

Olay is an affordable brand that delivers over and above its cost. The antioxidant has three of the vitamins needed for glowing well nourished skin. Vitamins B3, C and E provided a cocktail of ingredients that left my skin glowing and really soft. The cream has a pleasant aroma and although light and non greasy I found it needed a bit more effort to absorb into my skin and I blame the texture of my skin for that. If my skin was drier I think it would have been more of a success. However ,the end result was a definite brightness and a softer feel . I loved the tingle that using the Vit C caused and the hydration lasted the entire day. It would be a great improvement to provide one of those little applicator sticks as I'm not a fan of dipping fingers into product causing possible contamination.
