Olay Niacinamide + AHA Moisturiser

I love the shape of the jar that this moisturizer comes in, very practical shape with a stunning twister glass look - however was a little bit disappointed there was no spatula. The consistency of the moisturizer would be close to a gel than a thick cream. It absorbs easily into my skin, leaving a slight feeling of dampness which soon sinks in as I carry on with my bathroom routines. The smell is quite a sweet, fruity smell, which doesn't stick around - which is fantastic because lingering scents can give me a headache after a while. I used this moisturizer with its serum and they work very well together as they absorbed quickly and didn't turn into a gooey mess.

I was skeptical at first when the package said it would reduce acne and discoloration, but here we are, 5 weeks on and my skin tone is very nice and smooth. This moisturizer cleared up my skin from any breakouts within a few days of them happening. My skin doesn't feel smoother, but it looks smoother and more consistent. I can't wait to see how my skin is doing after 8 weeks.

I only used a very small amount (20c piece sized amount), twice a day over the last 5 weeks and I still have over half the jar to go. I would say that this product is good value for money. It has made my skin feel wonderful and the discoloration I used to have appears to be gone and the jar seems like it will last me a good 2- 3 months.

I think this is a good moisturiser, it's a nice smooth texture and it applys well into my skin. Absorbs well and skin looks healthy and glowing afterwards. My only concern with this moisturiser was it did give Me that slightly tight feeling on my face a few minutes after it was applied. My skin still had a nice healthy hydrated look but it didn't feel that way, it just had that slightly tight dry feeling. I have also been using this moisturiser along side the Olay luminous niacinamide + AHA super serum and when applying that before the moisturiser it did make my face feel slightly less dry and tight. I also did see some improvement with my old acne scaring so I do feel like this moisturiser and the serum do work but maybe the moisturiser just isn't the perfect one for my skin. I would definitely still recommend to a friend as I do feel it works well and as it claims. Nice packaging and easy to use .

This moisturizer comes in a metallic box with easy directions and good information. It comes in a cute jar with a twist top lid. I prefer these over pumps as you can use it all. The moisturizer has a slight fruity fragrance and isn't super thick. It has an almost silky texture. It absorbs quickly into my skin and isn't greasy. I used this in conjunction with the serum and did find over the first couple of weeks my skin was flakey and was ready for more moisturizer by the time I got home. The flakeyness has now gone and my skin is soft and all dry patches that I had have gone. Aside from no more dry patches, my skin feels slightly smoother and maybe a little brighter. I haven't noticed as much change as I had hoped. I would recommend this for the hydration and slightly smoother skin and Will use again.

The packaging for these products is lovely. This pot of moisturiser comes in a lovely pearly pottle with a silver lid. It looks rather glam sitting on the vanity! This moisturiser has a beautiful light texture that absorbs into your skin quickly without leaving your face feeling heavy or greasy. It has a lovely fresh scent. Gives a lovely glow to complexion. I found it helped even my skin tone and I would use this product again.

I love the colour scheme of the container, it is a traditional pottle and cover scenario- that I always struggle to remove so that goes straight in the bin. I didn’t love the smell of it- sort of had a bit of an old smell. The texture of the moisturiser is nice and it rubs in and soaks in well. I liked how I could feel it working it was a little tingly to begin with. I think it definitely made a difference to my skin and would definitely recommend despite the slightly odd smell. I think that the price point is about right and like how it’s easily available not in specialist stores

From the moment I recieved this product to trial I felt it was something special. The packaging is gorgeous and very upmarket looking definitely not the Olay of old. Luckily the performance and product matched its appearance. The cream is so nice to apply and does not feel heavy on my skin. The scent is absolutely amazing, not something I have ever had as a necessity when buying products, but totally made it feel a lot more indulgent. In the 6 weeks that I have been using this moisturiser I have notice a significant improvement in my skins clarity and a reduction in fine lines. My dark undereye circles have lightened and a pigmentation patch decreased. I will definitely continue buying this product especially as the proce point is not too bad. The only downside I found was that I ran out before the 6 weeks were up, I don't know whether this was me being a bit too generous with my application but it didn't last as long as I thought it would.

This moisturiser feels thick and creamy without being a heavy thick and creamy mixture. It has a lovely smooth consistency and is easily spread and absorbed into your skin with no greasiness afterwards. A perfect base for my makeup to go on. A fingertip amount of the moisturiser was plenty to cover my face and neck. The moisturiser has a slight fragrance which is hardly noticeable even with the serum underneath. I can’t wear products with a heavy fragrance so this was a big plus for me. Used in conjunction with the AHA Serum twice a day, within a week I had noticed a marked improvement in my skin condition, appearance and texture. You also definitely use a lot less moisturiser with having the serum on your skin first, with is a definite bonus. After four weeks of using this product twice a day my skin is almost glowing, my rosacea has markedly reduced and my skin feels AMAZING. This product now on my Must Have list and I will be definitely purchasing it once my trial jar runs out. This product has gone a long way and I’m still not at the bottom of the jar despite using it twice a day. I can’t recommend this product and the AHA Serum combination highly enough.

I really love this product! I definitely have noticed a difference in my breakouts. Any small spots dried up and resolved almost overnight. It is important to note that it is a scented product, personally, I love the scent and it hasn't irritated my skin. The texture is nice, goes on really smooth, and absorbs into the skin quickly. I also love that it doesn't pill when I layer my sunscreen on top. Overall, this moisturiser was very impressive for its affordable price.

The market is flooded with new creams making promises but I feel this moisteriser really delivers I was pleasantly surprised. This is very light weight and non greasy cream which left my skin feeling brighter due to the vitamin C ingredient. It works well with other brands also.

This moisturizer was a pleasant surprise! While I don't feel that my skin is overly plump or moisture rich, my skin does feel very smooth and I can notice the improvement in evening my skin tone.

In terms of the packaging, it comes in a screw top jar, which isn't my preference in terms of convenience and hygiene. The smell isn't overly strong, and is almost botanical-like but with a clean smell too. It's on the thicker side in texture, but I found it melts nicely into the skin - so can be used morning or night comfortably. I have some faded redness on my cheeks in particular from old blemishes that hadn't seemed to improve, despite not experiencing blemishes as often. I noticed this area has improved, and my skin tone is becoming more even, as well as the texture feeling super smooth. I will continue to use it and see how much improvement I can get.

The only downside is, I don't think it helps with drier skin, so I would still want to supplement with something purely to add moisture to my skin.
