Olay Miracle Boost and Micro Sculpt Duo Review

As a duo, these products worked really well together. I have done separate reviews for each product. They did give me a little skin irritation to start with but I couldnt tell you which products did that, but pretty sure it was the moisteriser as the perfume was quite high.

I really enjoyed using both these products and although my fine lines and wrinkles are still there (boo hoo) I did like how they both hydrated and evened out my skin tone as well as giving it a bit of a brightening boost, nice!

As far as packaging, I had trouble getting into both products. To start with not being able to figure out how to get lids off was a bit of a hassle and with one, nearly made me give up but once I'd had that aha moment it was all good, lol.

Very happy with these two products, they will last a long time if you dont use too much so I think the price is reasonable, although, I would probably wait till Farmers had a sale before re-purchasing these.

Tips: No need to use too much of this product, a little goes a long way.

Certainly a boost for my skin!

Not only is the packaging sleek, the pump dispenses just the right amount. It's light in texture and applies well. I really do think that the overall appearance of my skin is has improved. It appears more hydrated and brighter since using this product. I will be purchasing when I run out.

Age prevention duo

I haven't got too many wrinkles (yet) but with my 40's around the corner I am conscious of skin sagging and fine lines in development. I am well aware of the excellent reviews Olay have had historically so I'm always keen to try their new products to see if they will give me the results so many fortunate women have. Alas, I can't say like previous times that I have tried Olay (unsuccessfully as it often makes me break-out) where it has had an unhappy ending, I still didn't get that 'wow' result that so many have had. The product itself is generous in size and does have a tingling/tightening feel but not a plump post-botox look I was hoping for (mind you I've never had botox - but one can dream). The fact that it didn't irritate my skin nor dry or make it oily is a great thing. I have combination skin so it's a tricky one to get that addressed as well as older skin and prone to break-outs too...none of which I got with these products.

Tips: Give it a go, it's cheaper and less dramatic than botox surely!

Olay Duo

Used the Olay Miracle boost and Micro sculpt duo with awesome results. Skin feels naturally soft and supple. Skin is brighter and skin tone evened out. Both products are easy to apply and the Olay Miracle boost dropper endures the amount applied is consistent. Used both twice a day and was able to apply my foundation really well over product.

Tips: Use the duo twice a day for best results. A little goes a long way with the Micro sculpting cream. Do not over apply as it tends to leave a slightly oil look. I reduced the amount I was applying yo reduce this.

Olay Miracle Boost and Micro Sculpt Duo

I was lucky enough to trial this duo on my 50+ skin, and I would certainly continue to use these products.

The Miracle Boost Youth Pre-essence absorbs quickly into the skin without stickiness. Follow this with the Micro sculpting cream which is silky and rich without being greasy or heavy.

Within a week I noticed the exfoliating properties of these products, leaving my skin soft and smooth.

After 4 weeks trialling these products I did not notice a difference to my wrinkles, or jowls, but my skin does appear more hydrated and healthy. With time there may be a difference to these areas.

I would certainly recommend this duo to other people.

Tips: Use cream sparingly, as the more you use it, the less you appear to need.

Loving this duo!

Love the packaging of both these products. The pre-essence is a user friendly pump that pre-fills when you twist open the top, couldnt be easier. I also appreciate the cream is in a comfortable to hold (I know, right?) container with a quarter twist to open lid. I don't know if I'm alone in this, but products that you have to unscrew round and round can be a bit frustrating in the before-work-5-minutes-till-I-have-to-leave urgency! The pre-essence feels lovely on my skin, like a dewy liquid-y gel, very quenching. The product suggests 2 pumps but Ive only ever used 1 and it feels like plenty. It absorbs quickly into my thirsty skin, and doesnt feel sticky or tacky like some gel-type products can. Also love the cream, which is rich, but not greasy. Also absorbs quickly and doesnt leave any oiliness so good for a make-up base. I have really enjoyed the 2 step process and my skin feels moisturised and I think a bit more toned and youthful, however would really want to use it for another few weeks to really see if that's actually the case or wishful thinking?

Tips: The pre-essence is about 1/3rd gone already after 3 or so weeks, but heaps of cream left. I will definitely be buying more pre-essence to continue the 2 step process and hope for that firmed, plumped skin.

Winning duo

After hitting 30 I stepped up my anti-ageing game. I spend more and use more on my skin to slow and hide the signs of ageing. I was very excited to be selected to trial this Olay Duo – has a few claims that if they work anyone would love. Thanks BR for the amazing opportunity.

I totally understand you can’t get a facelift in a jar.. but you can get ingredients to improve the appearance of your skin and slow the effects of aging - Pretty much I have very realistic expectations of what to expect from a bottle.

This duo claims to reduce pores, improve texture and radiance, firm skin and visibly reduce lines and wrinkles. After using for a while I have noticed my skin is tighter, firmer, smoother and my pores definitely look smaller. I took a before and after photo (will post) – lighting differs and I currently have a cold so they were pretty average to be honest.. BUT very noticeably I have smaller pores!! Win!! I did find it hard to tell if it visibly reduced my wrinkles. It increased the moisture to my skin, as well as smoothing and firming it so I feel like it was working but yes wrinkle wise it was very hard to tell – perhaps because mine are mostly eye wrinkles so I find it hard to look at the side of my face without straining my eyes. Aside from that petite pores is a huge win!

Thanks again BR.

Tips: Buy on sale

Little pot of goodness!

I have been using the Miracle Boost and Micro Sculpt Duo for just over 2 weeks and I am pleasantly impressed! I have been using morning and night as recommended. The 2 products definitely work well together. The Miracle boost youth pre-essence goes on first, it smells nice and is quite runny so they are correct when they say a 2 pump dosage, this is enough for the face and neck. I did find it took a little while to soak in before I could apply the Micro-Sculpting cream. The Micro-Sculpting cream has a nice fragrance but not too powerful. It is really easy to apply and a small amount goes a long way. Using these 2 products together I have definitely noticed a small difference in my skin, my pores have reduced and the lines around my eyes appear smoother. My skin feels brighter too. The price is above average but I do think it is worth paying this amount. I love these products and would definitely recommend trying them.

Tips: The Miracle Boost Youth Pre-Essence has an interesting lid, took me a while to work out how to get it off - it twists off! I done upward circular motion to apply the Micro-Sculpting cream which I think helped too.

Not Quite 10yrs

I have loved trialing these products and I think I have found my new go to! I wouldn't say they made me look 10yrs younger (unfortunately!!) but my skin hasn't looked this good for a long while! The texture has improved, pore size it reduced due to the plumpness and the dark hormone patches have significantly reduced. I love the fact that my skin looks and feels healthier.

Olay Miracle Boost and Micro Sculpt Duo Review

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 currntly 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 Miracle Boost Youth Pre-Essence claims to renew cells, visibly reduce wrinkles, and firm skin. The Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting 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 texture of the essence, you only need one dropper “squirt” not the recommended two, and it absorbed in nicely. I noticed a bit of residue for the first few days but this went away, just make sure you don’t use too much, and allow it time to absorb before putting on the microsculpting cream. I love the bottle. I initially thought the dropper was a bit gimmicky but it’s actually really well designed and the packaging looks modern and sleek.

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!

Tips: Give the products time to absorb, and use sparingly as a little goes a long way!
