Olay Niacinamide + AHA Serum

I haven't used niacinamide before so jumped at the chance to try this.

The pump on the bottle took a bit of figuring out but once I mastered that it became easier to use.

The serum itself is lovely and light without too much fragrance, it also doesnt leave a sticky residue.

I have very dry skin so I needed to use more product than the instructions, but my skin did feel hydrated and soft all day. It was a pity it ran out due to my skins need for more, as I would have liked to see if there was more of a change in my skin.

Visually my skin looked softer and brighter, but there was no noticeable change in my pores nor was there a huge change in discolouration. But in saying that, I probably needed to use it for longer to get the full benefit.

Overall I did really like this serum and I would definitely use it again. It's gentle enough that I feel someone with sensitive skin could use it.

I have been using this for a few weeks now, and I’ve visibly noticed a big difference in my skin. It is more even, clear and bright and I have not been breaking out with any spots like I usually would coming into the colder months. Definitely will continue using and buying in future!

Pros:

- My skin looks brighter, smoother, and more even-toned after using this serum for a few weeks. - It absorbs quickly without leaving any sticky residue, which makes it easy to layer with other skincare products or makeup. - Pores look reduced - It doesn't cause any breakouts or irritation - It's affordable compared to other high-end serums.

Cons: - The bottle is a bit small, so you might need to repurchase more often if you use it regularly. - It doesn't provide intense hydration, so you might need to use an additional moisturizer if you have dry skin. - The scent might be too strong for those who prefer fragrance-free products.

Overall, I think this serum is a great addition to my skincare routine. It's affordable, effective, and doesn't cause any irritation or breakouts. However, it might not provide enough hydration for those with dry skin or who prefer fragrance-free products.

I am absolutely obsessed with this serum! I have been using a different serum but have recently seen the benefits of niacinamide on my combination skin so couldn’t pass this up. The packaging is nice, and the box has a tamper proof seal. The bottle is nice and heavy, and the dropper isn’t that cheap, sticky silicone you sometimes get. I feel like the dropper dispenses the perfect amount for my face and neck, which is a big difference to the dropper on my last Olay serum. The serum itself is beautiful. It has a really light fruity scent which I honestly didn’t notice once it had dried. It also didn’t react to the sensitive areas around my eyes which was a plus! The serum dries really nice and isn’t sticky. I didn’t notice a difference right away, but started to see results about a week later. My face was brighter, and any exisiting dark spots were gone. I did notice them come back the next morning if I skipped a face wash before bed though. Overall, I would definitely purchase this once my current bottle runs out. Hopefully they come out with a cleanser and toner to match!!

Spoiler. I love this serum. Olay are really impressing me with their skin care, and are now officially not a brand for oldies. Well unless I'm old and just right in their target market now haha.

Let's start with the results. After using this serum for six weeks, I noticed that my skin looked brighter, smoother, and more even-toned. The niacinamide and alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) work together to exfoliate away dead skin cells and promote collagen production, which means fewer fine lines and wrinkles. Plus, it helps to minimize the appearance of pores, which is a godsend for my oily skin.

This serum is so lightweight and absorbs into my skin like a dream. I love how it feels on my face - like a refreshing burst of hydration without any sticky residue. It's the perfect addition to my morning and nighttime skincare routine, and it plays nicely with my other products.

One more thing: the price point on this serum is chef's kiss. It's affordable without skimping on quality, which means I can slather it on without feeling guilty. And let's be real, who doesn't love saving some coin while still looking like a snack?

All in all, I'm a huge fan of Olay Niacinamide + AHA Serum. It's effective, affordable, and makes my skin look and feel amazing. Trust me, your face will thank you for adding this little wonder to your skincare arsenal.

This serum packs a punch with its blend of niacinamide and alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), which work together to brighten, smooth, and refine the skin.

The lightweight formula apparently penetrates deep into the skin to target fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven texture, while also helping to improve overall skin tone.

With consistent use over the last 5-6 weeks, I've noticed a visible difference in my skin's texture and radiance.

And the best part? It's affordable and easy to find at most supermarkets.

Found this serum really improved my skins elasticity and appearance. It didn’t cause any breakouts or skin issues for me. I found the bottle super easy and fun to use. The scent is AMAZING, reminds me of juicy peaches. This also worked super well underneath make up, I found that it really decreased getting dry patches on my face that foundation sticks to throughout the day. I would compare this serum to a lot of my higher end skincare serums, absolutely loved this product.

Olay Luminous Niacinamide + AHA Super Serum has a deeply hydrating formula enriched with Hyaluronic Acid and AHA (Lactic Acid). It claims to penetrate 10 surface layers of the epidermis, is easily absorbed to intensely hydrate the skin for visibly smoother and more radiant skin in only 28 days. It says it's fast absorbing and non-greasy, and is formulated without any nasties, meaning it has no parabens, sulphates, phthalates, petrolatum or mineral oils.

When you twist open the lid, a button on top pops up, which is the dropper sucking up a drop, ready for you to dispense it onto your palm. It only draws up a single drop of the serum each time, so there's no wastage. One drop is enough to do my face, neck and chest.

The serum has a lovely, light fruity scent that doesn't linger, and the thin liquid is quickly absorbed into the skin with minimal massage, leaving a nice glow even after moisturiser has been applied. It goes on well under makeup and is lightweight and super hydrating. I'm 44 and have naturally oily skin, and left my skin so dewy without any extra greasiness. I did experience a slight tingle on my skin from the lactic acid, especially after exfoliating, but it passed in a few seconds and left no redness or other side effects.

My only complaint is with the packaging - it's impossible to see how much product is left in the bottle. Other than that, I really like Olay’s serums (and I’ve tried a few). If you’re looking for a serum with niacinamide + AHA, give this one a try. I'll definitely be purchasing more!

I love the elegant packaging of this product. The twist to open is really high quality and easy to use and i love how the dropper dispenses the perfect amount as it is really easy to use too much serum.

The product is really light and absorbs easily so you don't have to wait around before the rest of your routine. I can tell it is definitely working to reduce scars and discolouration on my face and my skin feels a lot softer and smoother as well.

I really enjoyed this product and will be repurchasing.

First off let’s start with the packaging! I love it! The dropper give you the perfect amount of serum everytime! It’s easy to use, looks pretty on your dresser and helps stop product wastage!

Onto the serum itself! I loved it! Not an overly heavy serum and massages into the skin nicely and effortlessly. It does have a scent but nothing too strong and overpowering. After two weeks of consistent use I noticed old pimple scars fading considerably, my skin feeling smoother and redness seemed to lessen.

I easily get irritated skin around my nose and this serum didn’t cause any irritation at all.
