I have been using Oil of Olay night firming cream for many years.  The one thing that I do when applying the firming cream, I do not dry my skin therefore I apply the Oil of Olay night firming cream with the moisture from the water.  This allows you to keep your skin hydrated.  Always remembering to cleanse your face thoroughly before applying the night firming cream or any creams or lotion to your skin.  Keeping your face free of makeup at the end of the day....cleanse...also use an astringents, this will allow you to make sure that your skin is thoroughly clean and free of any makeup. ...
