Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting Night Cream

I was really blown away by this cream because I did not expect so much from an inexpensive night cream. The gel texture is light but extremely hydrating. The gel just disappears into my thirsty skin. It is not sticky. No fragrance and not irritating at all. The jar looks nice but I don't like dipping my fingers into a jar, so 1 point off for that. The price is great for such a lovely and efficacious product. Another thing that I wonder about is whether Olay tests on animals? According to the Internet, there is no animal testing, but the verdict is still out on that. Olay’s animal testing policy contradicts itself - they state that they are cruelty free, but they are on the PETA list of products to avoid because their parent company Procter & Gamble allows animal testing. As far as the product goes - I love it. It is very hydrating and makes my skin feel nourished and silky. Yes, I would recommend to a friend and I will buy again, but I would like some clarity on whether this brand is really cruelty free.

Firstly, I wanna mention the texture of this night cream - I would say its in between a cream and a gel - its almost balmy! It feels silky on the skin and absorbs well. Although it does leave the skin a little tacky (but its a night cream, so that's fine). Its quite light weight for a night cream, I usually like super thick, but it does leave the skin feeling really hydrated and silky. It also has no fragrance that I can smell, so its not irritating.

My skin looks plump, and even a bit tighter than it was prior. I was actually complimented on my skin just yesterday!

The packaging is nice, not super luxe looking but attractive enough.

A little goes a long way, after almost a month I still have more than half left - and I was using this daily.

It retails at around $35 - and given the fact that you'll likely get at least two months from a tub - its a good price.

Good product however I would describe the look and texture as a gel rather than a cream. It absorb fast and instantly made my skin feel smoother, and after only a few days my skin felt firmer. I like that it doesn’t smell especially for a night cream. Pricing is similar to other products of same functions and easily ordered online. If your a fan of Olay then give this a try.

The texture of this cream is unreal. It's like a gel but also rich and hydrating. It quickly absorbs into the skin, plumping and firming the surface. I love that it has no fragrance, that is a great selling point. It's a gel crossed with a cream, feels good and hydrating.

I was lucky to receive this night cream to trial, it comes in a sleek tub that looks really nice on display on my dresser, unfortunately once you open the tub it’s a struggle to take the protection shield off every time I use it, I could keep it off however feel it keeps the product fresh?

The cream melts into my skin and feels really hydrating, it has a slight scent which is lovely. Would definitely recommend.

I really liked the silky texture of this one, I was expecting a cream but it’s actually a thick gel consistency, despite this it sinks into the skin quickly and doesn’t leave behind greasiness or residue, its also fragrance-free so suitable for most skin types. You don’t need much product to get the job done, a dollop the size of a fingernail will do for face and neck. It’s on the pricier side at around $40-50 generally, however I’ve also seen it on sale for as low $25 so it can pay to shop around. It comes in jar packaging which whilst looks pretty, isn’t the best for hygiene purposes and product integrity (active ingredients can degrade with exposure to light and bacteria from fingers etc) however I usually make sure my hands/fingers are extra clean when using jars. My skin is clear and hydrated when I use this however I’m not sure I notice much a difference in fine lines if I’m completely honest, but I have other products dedicated for these purposes (retinol, multi-peptide serum etc) I was looking for a nice night moisturiser to go over the top of my active skincare so it’s fit for that purpose. Maybe it’s not an anti-aging powerhouse but it’s a decent night (and even daytime) moisturiser so perhaps I’ll re-purchase in the future if I see it on sale.

Very thankful to have been able to trial this product. It’s exactly what I needed. Jumping right in with consistency: it’s thick, but not in a way that you need lots for coverage. Its not greasy either, but deceptively light. Like whipped cream. I only ever used a dollop on my fingertip - and not a large one. It spreads quite well. Application: as mentioned above, you only need a little amount for even coverage. I apply starting towards the centre and working outwards in small, soft circles. Fragrance: didn’t notice a very strong fragrance, but it’s a nice scent. I appreciate that it isn’t heavily perfumed as that tends to be bad for my sensitive skin. Usage: after using for about 4 weeks or so, I still have SO much left. I think that this makes the product worth the $40 or so that it costs. Results: I did notice firmer skin. Zero pores and the fine lines on my forehead and under eyes were noticeably firmer. As of right now, I do look much younger than I have in ages. My skin is firm and yet so plump. I haven’t suffered any fry patches or flakiness. I even started to get ID’d again :p I would recommend this product for sure. I think it does what it says it will do, and if you use it as directed on a regular basis, you’re going to thank yourself for it down the line.

I really enjoyed the texture of this cream, it has a slightly gel-like quality - however absolutely no stickiness! It is thick and rich feeling, absorbs quickly, and feels like its really hydrating instantly. Hard to say whether it has improved the firmness of my skin, I have only used it for 3 or 4 weeks so perhaps this would be more evident after longer use. The container is great, its one that only requires a quick half-twist to open so no laborious unscrewing, just grab and go. I currently use a L'Oréal night cream however now I've trialled this Olay product I prefer it, and will purchase again.
