Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting Face Cream Review

I'm been using this moisturiser for 3 weeks and have been really enjoying it. The packaging is lovely and looks expensive and the cream itself feels luxe. I have dry skin and prefer a richer cream at night time, so have been using this during the day. It feels rich and nourishing when applied, but sinks in to a soft matte finish. It's not greasy at all, and makeup applies perfectly on top of it. It has no discernible fragrance. I've used this for three weeks, and my skin feels and looks good. I've occasionally reacted to skincare ingredients, but this has been fine. I suspect that it contains silicone, which would explain the lovely smooth feeling it leaves, so if you'd prefer to avoid silicone this one might not be for you. I think it would be good for dry to combination skins, very dry or very oily skin types might prefer a different product.

I was lucky enough to trial this product on my 50+ skin. The consistency feels lightweight, rich and silky, and not heavy or greasy. The fragrance is light and very pleasant. Within a week of using this cream with the youth pre-essence I noticed that my skin was feeling smooth and soft and not in need of my usually weekly exfoliation treatment. This continued, and every day, my skin felt the same as it did immediately after exfoliation. My skin feels and looks more hydrated and appears smoother.

I certainly do not look any younger in the 4 weeks, my jowls do not appear to be more sculpted, but my skin does appear softer, smoother and hydrated and I like the results.

I would like to continue using it, and would recommend it to others.

I received the Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting Face Cream as part of a duo trial with the Olay Miracle Youth Pre-Essence. The product comes nicely packaged in a easy to use jar. You only need a small amount of the cream, after applying the pre-essence, smoothening over your face and neck, twice daily. The face cream has a faint but pleasant fragrance which doesn’t over power the senses. It is also absorbed easily and doesn’t have any greasy or sticky feel to it. I found I could skip my primer and apply makeup over this face cream without any issues. Upon application I noticed visibly reduced pores and an overall smoothness. Skin felt hydrated and moisturised even during peak winter. Continuous use over the past three weeks, twice daily resulted in smoother, firmer and brighter skin with visibly reduced fine lines. Absolutely love it! I have decided to buy the eye cream of this skin care range to try it as well.

A nice smell but only mildly scented. Some face creams are a little too heavily scented for my preferences. This is subtle and pleasant.

The cream itself is a good consistency: not so thick that it takes ages to work into the skin but thick enough that it does not 'drip' or slip down into the eyes.

The cream alone is effective in reducing the appearance of fine smile lines and improving the overall plumpness of skin.

I didn't notice any brightening.

I LOVED the Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting Face Cream!!!

It makes your skin feel super soft and instantly moisturised but it doesn’t feel sticky or heavy on your skin. It feels very nourishing but also light at the same time. It is easy to apply as it just glides on and pretty much dries straight away and just feels amazing!!! It has a lovely subtle smell which is not overpowering and you don’t need a lot to get full coverage which makes it good value for money.

I really like the outside packaging but I don’t like the white disk that sits on top of the cream on the inside as it is very fiddly to get off. That is the only thing I don’t like though and it’s a pretty minor thing.

After using the Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting Face Cream my skin definitely looks and feels smoother and softer. I would definitely recommend it to a friend.

This was the second of the two products I received. It is step three of a four step regimen but can be used alone or with just one or two of the other steps. I had the day version. This product comes in a beautiful red jar that looks very elegant. It doesn't include a spatula or anything to get the cream out so people who don't like to use fingers would need to find their own. It instructs to use morning and night, I just used it in the morning as my skin doesn't much like having product on at night. I don't know if this affects the desired results or not though. The cream is a silky white texture with a slight subtle scent. It is very easy to apply and absorbs into the skin well. It is quite thick so only a small amount is needed. I didn't notice a huge difference in my skin in the short time I've used it, it does feel softer though. I'm outside a lot so I do prefer a moisturiser to have some spf factor in it which this doesn't. The box does say there is a uv version so maybe that one does have an spf in it. While this is a lovely product I do think it's a bit rich for my skin type and probably not something I would repurchase, but for someone used to using a daily moisturising cream like this it would be a good choice.

I was lucky enough to be chosen to review the Olay Regenerist Miracle Boost Youth Pre-Essence and Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting Cream. I have normal skin with a few mid-30’s wrinkles around my eyes and on my forehead, and I’m usually a little neglectful of a proper skin care regime as I’ve taken it for granted enjoying pretty good skin condition so far. However I have been looking for an affordable and effective skin care products to slow the signs of ageing I’m starting to see, and keep my skin in the good condition it’s currently in, and that I can enjoy using.

I think I’ve found this in these products. Firstly they’re affordable and accessible, being found in supermarkets. They both have a lovely fragrance which is important to me - I want to enjoy using the products! And most importantly, they have delivered effective results for me over the last few weeks. I can see my skin is smoother, brighter, and more even.

The Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting Face Cream claims to visibly reduce pores, improve texture and radiance, as well as visibly reducing wrinkles, and firming skin. The only thing I didn’t notice was a reduction in my pores, but my skin definitely looks fresher, wrinkles appear to be minimised and fewer, and even though I’ve suffered from a lack of sleep over these last few weeks no one has said I look worse for it, so perhaps these products are compensating for my lack of sleep and keeping me looking great!

In terms of the use of the products, I loved the fragrance and feel of the cream, and the packaging looks great.

The cream is luxuriously thick, and while I did have a few small breakouts initially I think this was skins shock at being given such rich products after not having used anything near as creamy for a while. My skins after the few weeks’ use is spot-free. I used a new foundation during this trial which combined with winter temperature changed dried my skin out, but after using these Olay products the dryness went away within a day.

A little goes a long way with both of these products and that make them even more appealing, they’re definitely a worthwhile investment at a great price, and while I don’t think Ive had ten years knocked off the appearance of my skin, I’m sure with more use the benefits I’ve seen to date will only continue to grow. Definitely recommend and would buy again!

I was lucky enough to be chosen to trial this product. I am 38, with dry skin, and fine lines on my forehead. I have been using this for approximately 3 weeks: once a day at night-time. The product says to use day and night, but I prefer to save heavier creams for evening.

The packaging and design of the product is eye-catching and clever. It comes in a red and silver box with a picture of the product on the front. The product itself comes in a 50g jar. The jar is red, while the lid is a chromatic silver. The circular lid has an oval indentation on the top, which is slightly off centre and which gives it a modernist, slightly sci-fi quality. It would look very cool sitting in your bathroom.

The product is white, and easy to scoop out with your fingers. I have been using it once a day for three weeks and I still have a lot of the jar remaining. One thing that is tricky is the inner lid, which is white and sits on top of the product inside the silver lid. I found it very hard to lift off the cream. The little handle is too tiny to grasp, and the lid seems to stick to the cream, resisting being removed.

I have not noticed a huge difference, after three weeks of use, to my skin. I only used it in the evening as I did not want to use heavy skincare in the daytime. So it is hard to tell if my skin is better for using this, but it is definitely not worse. One thing I have a problem with is the smell of this cream. It smells like a chlorinated swimming pool, and I have had trouble getting past that. Every time I go to apply it I am overcome by the scent. It is an unusual choice of scent for skincare, and it is very strong. Perhaps they were going for an ocean scent, but I can't help but notice it every time I apply it.

I think this cream is a good night cream, but I do not think it is noticeably better than other night creams that can be bought locally.

I used this product only with the serum, so it's difficult to separate the two as to what did what result. The combination of the two did not react to my skin at all, which was great. It blended in well, and didn't sit on my skin and feel heavy (which is how I have found other Olay products)
