Olay Niacinamide + Vitamin C Moisturiser

After a bad run in with acne (pregnancy) , I used this not long after it started clearing up. It kept my skin feeling plump and hydrated in the post natal phase, and truly feel it sped up the process of healthing acne marks left behind. I want to try it on stretch marks.

After using this moisturiser for a week, I have noticed my skin looking more brighter. The product is non-greasy, super hydrating and absorbs quickly. A really good quality product. I'm not a fan of the packaging though, as the pot is quite full, I have been having problems opening the inner lid as it sticks very tightly. I love the tropical/fruity scent but this is quite strong so may not be for everybody but I find the scent usually fades after a few minutes.

I'm always looking for the perfect moisturiser to keep my skin looking fresh and youthful, and this one largely hits the mark.

First off, the texture is amazing. It's lightweight and absorbs quickly, which is perfect for someone like me who hates feeling greasy all day. Plus, the scent is subtle and refreshing, not overpowering like some moisturisers can be.

But the real magic is in the ingredients. According to The Google, Niacinamide and vitamin C are two of the most powerful anti-aging ingredients out there, and this moisturizer packs them both in. My skin looks brighter and smoother after just a few days of use, and I can tell my fine lines are starting to fade.

So why not perfect marks? 1. It retails on the pricy side of supermarket skincare. 2. I found it a bit pill-y. It took a few uses to figure out the perfect amount to use, too much and I would be balling this off of my face hours later.

Overall, I highly recommend the Olay Niacinamide + Vitamin C Moisturiser.

Overall, I've been really impressed with this product. The combination of niacinamide and vitamin C makes for a powerful formula that has left my skin feeling brighter, more even, and more hydrated.

One of the things I love most about this moisturizer is how quickly it absorbs into my skin. It's not greasy or heavy, which makes it perfect for daily use. And even though it's lightweight, it still provides a ton of hydration, which is great for my dry skin.

I've also noticed that my skin looks more radiant and even-toned since I started using this moisturizer. The niacinamide has really helped to reduce the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation, which is a huge plus for me.

However, I do have one small issue with this product - the packaging. While I appreciate it's pretty standard to come in a pottle, I prefer a tube or something I don't need to stick my fingers in to.

Overall, I would definitely recommend the Olay Niacinamide + Vitamin C Moisturizer to anyone looking for a lightweight, hydrating moisturizer that also delivers on brightening and evening out the skin tone.

A really lovely cream to use. The packaging is fairly standard Olay packaging, but it looks smart and the colours are nice and go with the citrus fragrance and ingredients. It has an inner lid which is good because the product doesn't get all over the outside lid so keeps the pot clean and easy to use (especially when travelling and the pot is upside down). The fragrance is a soft and refreshing citrus smell that is not overpowering and makes you feel refreshed and happy. The cream itself is super light and non greasy. It goes on really easy and absorbs well into the skin so my face wasn't oily afterwards. You don't need a lot, so the cream lasts a long time. I have used it religiously day and night for the past 3 - 4 weeks and i have only used about half a pot. I love that it is a day and night cream which limits the amount of bottles I have in the cupboard and was great to travel with - it definitely simplified my routine. And its a great price too. I also love that it is not full of nasties. I have an autoimmune condition, so that fact that it doesnt have sulphates and parabens etc is a definite winner for me. As far as results go - I have just turned 50, so my skin can be dry and has a lot of dark spots appearing now. The cream definitely gave me a healthy glow and hydrated my skin. My skin feels soft and supple in the morning and seems to stay hydrated all day, but I didn't find that it reduced the look of dark spots on my face at all. Overall it is a really lovely cream that is easy to use and made me feel refreshed and healthy. I would definitely recommend to a friend.

This is such a nice soft moisturiser. You don't need much to fully hydrate your face. I haven't seen any viable results as yet but am looking forward to seeing some soon.

This moisturiser comes in a 50 gram luminous jar. It is white and has the most devine scent. Olay says it's citrus but to me I smell mango. Even though it's scented this hasn't irritated my skin nor does it smell like a horrible chemical. This is very lightweight, is non greasy and feels almost gel like upon application. Nice and soothing and non clogging.

My skins texture has improved and does have a healthy glow over the month that I've used it. I haven't noticed a reduction in dark spots though over more time it may happen. My make-up sits nicely on top and doesn't pill, just gives me a nice base to start with.

It costs approximately $59 at the supermarket and I will likely get 1 1/2 months worth. I have used this twice daily.

First thing I noticed with this moisturiser was its lovely fragrance that reminded me of mangoes. I didn't find it overpowering but it was definitely noticeable so if you don't like a strong smelling moisturiser, then it's probably not for you. I like that it has the wonder benefits of Vit C and other b vitamins which are great for skin. You don't need a lot as it's very creamy and goes a long way and made my skin feel hydrated and plump after use. I have hardly any dark spots on my face so can't vouch for a reduction in those but my skin seems to have a bit more glow to it. It doesn't feel sticky or greasy once on and absorbs quickly. I feel it's pretty good value for money at around $60 for a 50g pot which should last ages.

Pros: - It's lightweight and absorbs really quickly - No residue or greasy feeling - Subtle and refreshing scent, it's not overpowering for me. - It is affordable and will last a long time. - I've noticed skin is soft, smooth and just feels better than before.

Cons: - May not provide enough hydration for those with very dry skin - Some people may not like the fragrance, whilst not overpowering, it is an obvious fragrance. - May not work well under makeup for some users, I experienced a bit of pilling and had to omit my primer.

I would use it again as it's a really nice cream, it's just got a few things going on that might not suit everyone.

I’m not a fan of product that have a lot of packaging the box has all the ingredients and instructions printed on it. Normal style olay pottle I like the swirl on it as it’s a bit different.

Thick white cream I didn’t really notice any scent to it would love it if it can with a small scoop or a pump top especially with long nails.

It definitely leaves my skin feeling hydrated and I don’t feel like I need to reapply like other products I’ve tried. You don’t need a lot and It doesn’t feel heavy on the skin. While i have not yet skin more hydrated I haven’t noticed any difference to sunspots which hopefully might change with longer use. Nice combination with the eye cream, would love a matching serum to go with them.
