Olay Moisturising Lotion Review

I used to use this all the time when I first got into wearing face lotions and setting up a routine. I was influenced by my mother as she has used this brand forever, way back when it was oil of ulan. I love the smell of it, it's not too heavily fragranced just a clean smell. It's a light moisteriser so probably best for more normal skin types. As I've gotten older (Well I'm 27 now), my skin seems to have gotten more dryer so this lotion doesn't work as great for me anymore. I think it's quite affordable, and would be great for anyone wanting to try out some new face care with a brand that has been around for a very long time!

I love the smell of this moisturiser, but its quite expensive for such a small bottle. The consistency is a bit too runny for my liking and it almost feels too light. Like it doesn't do much, if anything; for my skin. I wouldnt purchase again, not when there are so many cheaper, better nourishing moisturisers on the market today

My mum has been using this for years so I purchased this assuming that if she liked it - I would too.

Boy I was wrong. I cannot stress how much I loathe this product. First of all, the packaging doesn't do anything for me aesthetically. In my opinion it is just kind of 'blah''.

However, the reason I dislike this so much is the quality of the product on my skin. To me it is WAY too thin - it is really messy and just slides around my hands. I also found that after using this my skin actually feels drier! For my skin at least this does nothing.

I also hate the smell - it's kind of old fashioned and chemically. I just can't stand it.

I couldn't bring myself to even use 1/4 of the bottle (I forced myself to use it daily for a fortnight to see if it would grow on me), but it did nothing for my skin except make it dry.

Thus I gave it to my mum and will absolutely never buy this again.

If you have really dry skin I wouldn't even touch this stuff.

I will never forget when I was younger always having the importance of a good skin care regime and especially a good moisturizer installed into me. Me being rebellious and young I never understood.. My Great Grandmother used this product, my Grandmother used it and my Mother also used it.. Its like the holy grail of skincare of the Women in my family. When I got a bit older my Mother encouraged me to use this product, and if not anything else.. to make sure I at least used this.. I will always thank her for that! This product is amazing.. I have forever been obsessed with the scent and the formula it is so nice and light yet very moisturizing. I always feel refreshed after using it. Its good and tried and true for sensitive skin.. Women throughout the Years are an absolute testament to that.. And honestly if you saw my Grandmothers skin and also my Mothers skin from YEARS of using this stuff you would understand what the hype is about. I highly recommend this for all age groups, its affordable, tried and true and you just cannot go wrong!

once upon a time this was one of my favourite moisturisers. nice smell felt nice on the skin and as i have sensitive skin it was gentle aswell no irritations but i found as i got older i needed heavier moisturisation on my face sometimes this felt a bit light.

My nana has used this for as long as i can remember (back when it was called Oil of Ulay!) and her skin looked amazing until she recently passed at 77. Now her 6 granddaughters (and a few grandsons) use it as well! Its great for the skin and doesnt leave that yucky oily film like some others do - i cant wait to have a daughter to pass on this family heirloom.

An oldie but a goodie. The fragrance reminds me a bit of old people but it does a great job. The milky texture readily absorbs into the skin and you can never use too much.

I like, but don't love the Olay Classic. The price is fine, smells great, but have never enjoyed this moisturizer. It feels too slippery to me, and only buy when on a tight budget and its on special.

Great on my skin leaves it soft and feels hydrated how eve gives me dry patches on my eyes which happens every time i apply product to my eye

Lightweight,Great Fragance and leaves your skin feeling soft! One of the best i've used and would recommend to others :)
