Olay Regenerist Whip UV SPF 30

I found this moisturizer to be really nice on my skin. It was super moisturizing and lightweight, and gave my skin a matte feel. I tend to get an oily nose but there was no sign of it at all while using this uv cream. It definitely did not feel like your normal thick traditional sunblock. I have used it daily while working from home and have had some compliments over zoom to say i look more fresh than usual which i definitely put down to this uv cream's hydrating and plumping qualities. I will definitely be repurchasing as it has such a high SPF rating and does much more than a sunblock. One thing to note though for people that arent too into fragranced product is that does have a slight scent to it but its not unpleasant - definitely more noticeable in these times where masks are needed!

I managed to get a spot on the trial team for a tub of Olay Regenerist Whip UV, and was keen to compare it to the Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream that I've used previously.

The Whip UV Cream is packaged in a 50g red pot with a silver screw top lid, and the thick white cream inside has an almost floral perfumed scent, which is not unpleasant, and the cream spreads well and is easily absorbed, so not a lot is needed.

I used a small pea sized amount, the perfect size for my oily skin, and then gently massaged it in an upward circular motion over my neck and face.  One thing I did discover is that it's important not to massage this cream for too long, as it does start to 'pill' or form little balls if its massaged onto the skin for too long.  Only massage the skin for as long as it takes to gently spread the cream around evenly and then let the cream sink in.

Even though I'm not a huge fan of tub or pot packaging, I really liked this moisturiser. It does help to control shine, and they weren't lying about the 'light as air' finish either. Once the cream as been applied, my skin feels soft and smooth, with an almost light matte satin feel to it, and there's absolutely no greasiness. The added anti-aging broad spectrum SPF30 is a wonderful bonus. I love moisturisers that contain SPF and are non-greasy.

Overall, my skin looks and feels great after using this moisturiser during the trial time. It feels more hydrated and therefore looks plumper or firmer. I'd have to give it a few more weeks to see if I begin noticing any difference to the fine lines around my eyes and mouth.

I love the texture of this moisturiser, it's super light and airy, and absorbs quickly into a matte finish. My skin feels super soft and smooth after using it. It has a nice, light fragrance that isn't too strong and doesn't linger. I also like that it's spf 30, and not just spf 15 like a lot of moisturisers are. I can't attest to if it does what it says it does as I haven't been using for it long enough. No complaints from me about this product, I'd definitely buy it again!

Firstly I must say I just loved how smooth and silky this whip felt not only on my fingers when I apply it but how well it absorbs into my skin and has it feeling smooth and refreshed straight away. It absorbs quickly and found it was great as a base for my make up as well as keeping my skin hydrated during the day, I work in a large airconditioned office so dry skin is common for me due to my work environment but not since I have been using this whip. My skin felt softer and replenished the longer I used it and my lines were softer and I am sure the longer I use it the better it will get. I will be continuing to use this product going forward and can't wait to see how my skin feels after a few more weeks!

This cream is rich and hydrating without leaving that heavy feeling on my skin. It provides an adequate amount of moisture and leaves the skin feeling soft and looking luminous all day. As with SPF, it's important to reapply during the day. I found I was able to apply further layers without it pilling or weighing down my skin.

I really liked the formula of this moisturizer it was non greasy yet hydrating and best of all it’s got a SPF 30! It really does have a matte finish so can easily use under foundation and it still lasted all day. Very light weight and nice scent also

I was so excited to be invited to trial the Olay Regenerist Whip UV SPF 30 as my skin has been a little lacklustre and neglected after the birth of my daughter 4 months ago and it certainly has not disappointed.

It’s beautifully packaged in a classy red jar with a silver lid which looks gorgeous on any vanity. It would be great if it came with an applicator as I don’t really like having to dig my fingers into a jar and end up getting product stuck under my nails.

The cream itself definitely lives up to its name. When you open the jar you can truly see the “whip” and feel the “light as air” texture as soon as you dip your finger in. It does have a very strong scent which I can only liken to hair conditioner and it does linger for a while after application.

A little goes a long way and absorbs quickly into the skin once applied leaving you with a smooth, matte finish while still feeling hydrated and nourished. It also works really well as a primer under makeup. To be honest though I do find that my skin doesn’t stay matte for a full 8 hours as claimed on the box. However, my skin has been noticeably firmer and I’m starting to see some reduction in the fine lines around my eyes.

My favourite thing about this product is the built in UV protection. And even better that it doesn’t leave behind a white cast like some other sunscreens and products formulated with SPF.

Overall I’ve really enjoyed trialling this product and have been pleased with the results so far. I’m looking forward to seeing more improvements in my skin in another few weeks!

Similar to some other products on the market, this came in a huge box. The first thing I noticed as soon as I opened it was the divine pretty smell and I felt so captivated by it. Once I took after the screw cap top, I had major problems trying to take off the inner lid so that went straight in the bin. The moisturiser seemed quick thick but smoothed on well and my skin soaked it all up, must have been screaming out to be hydrated! Have no break outs but found it got too close to around my eyes that my eyes reacted and got extremely itchy – could be just me as have been suffering intensely with hay fever at the moment! I do love this moisturiser and skin feels amazing afterwards and waiting to see if there will be a change in fine lines and wrinkles but I truly love this product and can’t wait to put it on each day
