Good Serum with glycolic acid

4

I have been using this serum for about two months. I use it every other night, This does a good job of exfoliating your skin gently. I initially had patches of some dry skin on my cheeks even though I am religious about moisturizing. This is due to years of past neglect which I did nothing for my skin. This has helped remove that. I use this at night with a moisturizer. The other night, I use a Retin-A product and moisturizer. Absorption Absorbs in the skin well. Doesn't Clog Pores I have not had additional breakouts. It did uncover some blackheads underneath the dead skin I had on my checks. These are gone, I will occasionally get the monthly pimple during my cycle. If you have sensitive skin you may want to test it, this has glycolic acid. Effectiveness Pretty effective. However, I also use a moisturizer even though instructions indicate you do not have to use one. I wait about 15 minutes and then apply my moisturizer (Estee Lauder Advanced Time Zone Night)

Not my favorite Olay product.

I bought this lotion for myself and my mother, just to see what effects it will have on both of our skin types. While my skin is acne prone and sensitive, hers is dry. We used the product for three months, and both werent too impressed with it. First of all, the texture and feel of the cream on the skin is unpleasant. It spreads on like a thin sticky layer, and makes it uncomfortable to go to bed. I always feel the stickiness when im rolling over on my pillow. My mother also did not appreciate the texture of the cream. What she also noticed is after using it for a while, her skin would become pink and gently flake off. This is a form of exfoliation, and this product is great at getting rid of the outer older layer of skin cells. Personally, I feel that this product did not amaze me in any way. Its one big benefit is that it does not have a fragrance. It is also best to wear it at night, because it is a bit sticky.

Stick it Out And It Works

4

First off, I must say that this was recommended to me by my best friend. I am mid-thirties and was looking for a good moisturizer/resurfacer. This made me break out terribly for almost 2 weeks. HOWEVER, if you can stick it out it's worth it once your skin gets used to it. I think what is happening is that it's gently (and I mean this, it wasn't irritating at all) sloughing away skin cells to reveal a new layer of softer skin, while it does this it also pulls up all the deep down gunk that was under that first layer up, causing me to break out. I've been using it for about 2 months now and am very happy with it. I use it as a nighttime moisturizer, it makes your skin like it does about a week after a facial. I still need to use an exfoliator 2 times a week. I find that if I don't wash my face right away in the morning though it gets quite oily, so wash it off first thing. It's pricey but worth it because one pump is all you need, I haven't even used 1/4 of the bottle yet after 2 months.

My skin feels amazing when I wake up in the morning!

I love to try new products and this is my latest! I always hunt for a good sale and use my coupons so I admit that I got a really good deal on this product. However, the bottle looks very classy and upscale for what I paid for it at Rite Aid. Usually I use a lotion on my face at night so this is my first time using a serum. When I first put it on, it soaked in so much quicker than a lotion so I was skeptical about its effectiveness. When I woke up in the morning and felt my skin, I knew that it was doing its job! My facial skin feels so smooth and soft in the morning when I wake up after using this product. I would like to check out some other products in this line to see what they can do for my skin when used together! Also, the little gold sparkles in it make me smile when I squeeze it on my finger!

Olay Regenerist Night Resurfacing Elixir - WOW!

I tend to be lazy when it's time to go to bed at night - I 'forget' to wash off my makeup! Well, a friend recommended this night resurfacing elixir and I decided I would try it since I tend to love Oil of Olay products. After one week, I was hooked. I use this elixir every night! I have not missed yet. You don't have to use a lot at all....just a little dab will do ya! I think my favorite thing about using this resurfacing elixir is how my face feels in the morning when I wake up. It is really hard to put into words, but I truely feel a difference in the mornings! The product professes to have visible changes in five days. It is true. My skin feels tighter and smoother. I have never used a night cream or any nighttime product before. I am really enjoying this product. It is not oily at all, as a matter of fact, you don't even feel it when you put it on. Follow the directions - put it on and wait 5 minutes before going to bed. That gives the elixir time to absorb into your skin. It really is worth the wait!!!
