As a background to my skin type, I have combination skin that is typically oily on my nose/chin and normal elsewhere. I’m prone to the occasional breakout on my chin. I turn 30 this year and due to this I'm starting to think about using products that will address any early signs of aging.
I haven't used a lot of serums in my time, so I was unsure what to expect from this product! After cleansing, I used the serum and then applied the moisturiser. If I was applying the product in the morning, I would also apply SPF moisturiser and then cover it all up with my usual makeup routine. While trialling this product for a couple of weeks, I used the serum and moisturiser two times a day (morning and night).
I'm a huge fan of the packaging. It feels heavy and expensive. When you untwist the top of the product, a little lid pops up! When you push the lid, it dispenses the perfect amount of product to cover your face from a dropper ensuring no contamination from your hands.
The smell of the serum is very similar to the matching moisturiser (be sure to read my other review!) which I described as deliciously tropical. The feels lightweight and a little goes a long way.
My skin looked glowy, bright, and plump after use and never felt dry or too oily. Although I can be prone to breakouts, I never experienced any while using this product. My skin does look smoother, healthier, and softer since using this product as Olay claims it should.
Overall, I’ve really enjoyed using this serum and I’ve liked the effect it’s had on my skin while using it in combination with the matching moisturiser. If you have oily/combination skin and want to address early signs of aging, and the price suits you, I would certainly recommend giving this product a try! Don't write off Olay, they've undergone a serious upgrade since I last looked!
This super serum has been incredibly beneficial to my skin. It has treated me well. My skin feels super hydrated and Im loving it,
The applicator is awesome because you have a button on top that you push which controls how much serum is released out of the dropper. It is so much better that a regular dropper. A little goes a long way so it will last a while. The serum has a light fragrance which I find disappears after application. I usually have dry patches on my skin, since using this super serum they have disappeared. I have noticed a huge improvement in pigmentation that I have. I do have sensitive skin and this did not irritate me one bit,
If your in the market for a serum, I recommend giving this a try.
