Oil of Olay double action night cream

With my good experience of Oil of Olay, I decided to buy their Double Action Night Cream. This comes in a pot of 50 ml, the white cream shines through the frosted plastic container, which also has a black top like the other Oil of Olay products. On the pot it says "OLAY" with black letters. When I bought this it was a round pot, now they´ve changed the looks a little, to square-ish. It also comes in a square box. I prefer creams in tubes myself, rather than sticking your fingers down into it, but since it´s quite a thick cream, I guess this is for the better. The smell is very mild, hardly noticable, but nice.
Since this is to be used over night, it´s much thicker than the Oil of Olay beauty fluid (see my review on it), and does at the start feel and look like you´re putting a face mask on. It takes some time for it to absorb, thick as it is, has to stand rubbing against a pillow all night, so I´m patient. If you touch your skin after a few minutes it´s really smooth, and feels a bit fat and oily. So if you have a really fat skin type, this is probably not the best choice for you. I don´t use it around my eyes, since that area is very sensitive, there are special creams for that, like Oil of Olays "Eye contour gel".

Oil of Olay also have a night double action night creme for sensitive skin, Double Action Night Cream Hypo-Allergenic. Another long name :).


This cream moisturises and nourishes the skin during the night, replacing moisture lost during the day. It also increases the skin's ability to retain natural moisture, and when you wake up in the morning your skin feels soft and fresh. I don´t think guys like kissing your face in the evening with this on either, as it will leave their mouths all oily. Which have made me use this cream more seldom. :)
The price is around £8-9 here in Sweden, and I think it´s worth the price.

What does it contain you say?

Ingredients:
Aqua, Glycerin, Cetyl Palmitate,Cetyl Alcohol, Cyclomethicone, Stearyl Alcohol, Isopropyl Palmitate, Dimethicone, Dimethicone Copolyol, Sodium Stearate, Sodium Carbomer, PEG-100 Stearate, EDTA, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Imidazolidinyl Urea, Parfum, C.I 14700, C.I. 77891.

And don´t ask me what it is!
