I have used this moisturiser since I was in my early 20's. I've stuffed it in the cupboard and used other things, I've gone back to using it, I've tried something else and I ALWAYS come back to my olay moisturiser. It's fantastic on my oily acne prone skin which is also sensitive, so it has a lot to contend with, but it's perfect. It doesn't make me break out, it doesn't make my skin even oily then usual. I would absolutely recommend this product to anyone.

I have been using this product for quite a few years on my skin even though I do not typically have sensitive skin on my face. I still find it better than using the regular moisturiser as I have never had a problem with this product. I use it daily and it lasts for quite a few months. My skin is never greasy after using this mousturiser and it always leaves my skin well hydrated and soft. I use this before my foundation and even, on days when I want light coverage, mixed in with my foundation or concealer. Definitely a great product.
This is the perfect light weight lotion for my sensitive skin. It was my go to product during summer as it is grease-free and a great moisturizer under any foundation. It has lovely texture - light but not watery, great value about $15 for a 177ml, over all i love it
I discovered this moisturiser when searching for cheaper skincare options to help with out budget and this is actually the one product I am completely happy with. I have found that I do need to use slightly more than my previous more expensive product however this still works out much cheaper overall. I have found this to be a lovely and light product to use, rubs in easily and dries quickly (no greasy feeling etc.)
I was first introduced to Olay (or Oil of Olay in those days) by my mother, who had used Olay most of her life because it was affordable, hydrating and gentle on the skin.
The moisturiser feels cool and fresh on the skin and has a nice light feel to it, which I really enjoyed. I believe that it works well for all skin types, as it is not too hydrating (as I aged I needed to apply more of it).
It works great for sensitive and irritated (i.e. sunburnt) skin - both of which I've experienced, and as mentioned the cooling effect sooths the skin.
A plus is that the product is often on special.
The moisturiser does everything that I expected from it and I would recommend it to a friend if they were after something affordable.
The only reason I haven't given it top marks is that I recently tried to go back to this moisturiser after a year of not using it and I just did not find it hydrating enough for me or that it sunk in quickly enough.
In saying that, I still have very fond memories of this moisturiser and would considering seeing if my skin felt suited to it again (though last time, I did give up and gave it to my mother).
I love and adore the original version of this moisturiser (the one with the pink tint and the rosy fragrance) but this one breaks me out something terrible which is very interesting being that this is the 'sensitive skin' variant. Within a few hours of using this I will break out in dermatitis with itching and burning and hives all over my chin - I don't know what the difference is but this definitely contains something that the original formulation does not so I will stick with the original thanks. The only other difference for me that I can see is that this formula is a tad thicker and less easily absorbed than the original but the overall consistency is pretty much the same.
I have been using Olay for years now. I choose to the sensitive moisturiser as I have a tendency to react to lotions and get dry patches. It keeps my skin feeling refreshed, shine free, and no dry patches. Perfect.
I use this every night and it moisturises my skin really well. Plus, it can help to reduce wrinkles which is great. I feel like my skin looks more fresh and youthful after every time I use it.
I have combination skin and can get an oily nose and T-zone. I found this product was lightweight enough to use twice a day where other moisturisers I only use once a day. Absorbs easily and does not leave me with a shiny nose (though I do use sparingly on y T-zone). The bottle seems to last ages!
I have been a religious user of this moisturiser for many years now and still love it and use it daily.
I find it great on my sensitive skin and love the fresh yet subtle scent. I find it hydrates my skin well without leaving my skin feeling or looking greasy and sinks into the skin quickly leaving it baby soft. I use this before foundation and don't have an issue with it affecting my makeup either just creating a smooth moisturised base for foundation and the like.
Definitely a product I will continue to repurchase and would highly recommend to others. I find my bottle lasts me a good period of time too despite daily use and it is definitely wallet friendly considering what a great product it is.
I have also tried the normal lotion (not the sensitive version) which I think is slightly pink tinged compared to this and it too is just as great I just found it stung a little on my sensitive skin which is why I much prefer this one.
