The smell was slightly odd, the texture was wonderful and it didn’t make your skin sticky like some can… I thought it definitely reduce black heads and pores. And drew out areas of congestion to result in cleaner skin ongoing. Skin felt soft and good in the morning. The price point is about right and readily available is great. I liked the packaging once I figured it out. I would use again despite the slightly weird smell.

Tips: I had to get my 12 year old to google how to use the bottle. I was being ridiculous and couldn’t figure out how to use the it… to be clear, press the button on the top to draw the serum up and again to get it out on to your hand to use it - so embarrassing! Haha
The packaging for this product was lovely the pearly white bottle with a nice silver lid has a dropper for easy application it looks quite glam. This serum is a nice consistency it didn’t feel sticky on my face and absorbed in nicely it has a yummy fresh scent. I found it quite strong for my sensitive skin so only used once a day in the evening instead of twice. Overall a lovely product which gave my skin a nice glow.
Tips: Use a small amount on the back of your hands as well as your face
I have been using this serum for about 6 weeks and love it. My skin has a nice healthy glow and I do feel it has helped with some old acne scaring, its looks more faded and less obvious. I do have hyperpigmentation from pregnancy too but at this stage it's too early to tell if it's helping fade that pigment or not. I will definitely keep using the serum to hopefully see results fading that a wee bit too . Firstly the soft silky texture of the serum is amazing. It rubs in so nicely and absorbs well into my skin leaving a nice bright looking glow. After applying, my skin feels super hydrated and soft. I love the packaging sleek and easy to use. The eye dropper applicator is great as it dispenses the perfect amount of product so you don't overuse and waste it. Works well under makeup. Overall I would repurchase, a nice product and does as it claims which is amazing!! X
I like the color and look of the bottle for this serum - however I felt a bit silly trying to figure out how to get the serum out - I thought it was a pump...turns out the top twists off and the button at the top is what you used to pump serum into the pipette.
The consistency of the serum is runny but It absorbed very easily into my skin. The smell is quite a sweet, fruity smell, which doesn't stick around - which is fantastic because lingering scents can give me a headache after a while. I used this serum with its moisturizer and they work very well together as they absorbed quickly and didn't turn into a gooey mess.
I was skeptical at first when the package said it would reduce acne and discoloration, but here we are, 5 weeks on and my skin tone is very nice and smooth. This serum helped cleared up my skin from any breakouts within a few days of them happening. My skin doesn't feel smoother, but it looks smoother and more consistent. I can't wait to see how my skin is doing after 8 weeks.
I only used a very small amount (one pump), twice a day over the last 5 weeks and I still have a good amount in the bottle to go - downside is I can't see into the bottle to gauge how much is left. I would say that this product is good value for money. It has made my skin feel wonderful and the discoloration I used to have appears to be gone and the jar seems like it will last me a good 2- 3 months.
Tips: Use with the moisturizer to lock in all the goodness!
I have been really enjoying this serum alongside the moisturiser from Olay. The texture is great - not too thin, but not too thick or sticky either, and the two products work well together without any pilling. I have noticed that my skin has had a less uneven texture, though I haven't been using this one long enough to notice a reduction in hyper-pigmentation just yet! I'm looking forward to continuing to use the serum/moisturiser combo over the longer term to see if the results compound!
I really wanted to like this serum, but it's just not for me. I've used Niacinimide & AHAs seperately so I was really excited at the prospect of them being combined into one super serum, but I just didn't find it all that effective. It didn't do anything for the hormonal acne on my chin, and more than anything I found the smell so overwhelming. It is so sweet, and so strong - I felt like I was rubbing an Ariana Grande perfume into my face. The formulation was nice and it did absorb nicely into my skin, but I just can't get past the smell personally, so won't be repurchasing.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the box packaging and the product packaging!!!! Who ever designed them have an eye for detail, beauty and highend looks.
This was a beautiful product!!!! It smells beautiful like a highend fresh apple just like the moisture. The consistency is the a very thin lotion with a white transparent look to it. A small amount goes along way and makes my skin feel extra soft and smooth, it has a slight cooling effect when rubbed into the skin It absorbeds nicely into the skin and leaves a smooth hydrating, slightly tacky feel. My skin after the trial was so much nicer, brightener looking, soft, hydrated and smooth. (I even had compliments on my skin without makeup on) This product did NOT break me out. This product worked amazing under makeup and worked amazing with the moisture. Highly recommend
Tips: If you don't like scented products this is not for you
My mature skin soaked up this creamy serum that comes packaged in an attractive bottle. After just using it for a couple of weeks, the plumping around my mouth was just next level, and my skin was glowing as well. The texture of my skin was smooth and I could see that some acne marks has gone lighter. This serum is a keeper in my daily routine.
I highly recommend this serum.
Tips: Would love to know with what this product can be used in conjunction with other than the moisturiser. And to apply it on wet or dry skin. If that can be mentioned on the bottle
I've used the Olay "pump" bottles before so I wasn't confused by how it works this time, but for new users, it can be a bit confusing the first time. Simply untwist the cap, pump once then open it fully and pump again to dispense(google can help here). The serum itself is slightly fruity smelling, and is a white, semi opaque serum. Non greasy, and applies beautifully. I have noticed a slight decrease in colour some of the dark spots on my face, but they haven't gone completely. I will keep using though and report back if it changes further. I am really liking all the Olay products I have tried so far.
Tips: Use after cleansing and toning, a mist toner is fabulous and quick for this purpose. One pump was enough for my face and neck.
From the outset this product exuded indulgence, it's packing and container are beautiful. I found this serum light on my skin and it smells absolutely devine. I have been using this serum for 6 weeks and have noticed that my skin is so much brighter and the tone is a lot more even. A dark patch if pigmentation I have had on my check for years is now lightened significantly and my skin feels so smooth and nourished. The only down side was that I ran out of serum a lot quicker than expected. I was using it morning and night and it lasted just over a month, for its price point I would've hoped it would last longer. I would still however definitely buy this again if on special and would recommend to others who want a brighter clearer complexion
