Oil of Olay Daily Facials

I have been looking for a decent face wipe for a while now, I have tried all sorts of wipes at different prices and I could not seem to find anything to suit either me or my skin, until I came across Olay's daily facial wipes at my local boots store. I love using face wipes, as they are so easy and quick to use. All you do is pull one little wipe out of the pack, wipe your face thoroughly and your done. These are ideal for people on the go, I use ...
...only thing that truly bugs me about them is when you near the bottom of the way through the pack and they start to dry out. Where as the Olay Daily Facial wipes come in a box, the wipes are dry already and you damp them before you use them. This was the main reason I bought them I hate to waste things and these would last forever providing I didn't wet them. These wipe lather up really well. Once they have been wet. So all you need is to wipe your ...

Review of Oil of Olay Daily Facials

I have used Olay Daily Facials to cleanse my face for about 4 years - pretty impressive brand loyalty! The reason I first decided to try them was because I was about to go off on holiday for 2 weeks to Peru - this would involve staying in basic hotels with a group of strangers, carrying much of my stuff about on long walks, and finally, the Inca Trail! I didn't want to be carting various bottles and jars about up and down mountains, so the cloths ...
...weigh hardly anything, and for another, they don't contain any liquid that could leak in your bag - really useful for travelling. I thought that if I didn't find them very good for the face, I could always use them on the body like disposable flannels! In the end, I found that two weeks of exercise, fresh air and good food did not detract from the condition of my skin in the slightest (!) - and neither did the cloths. I've been using them ever since. ...

Review of Oil of Olay Daily Facials

I was browsing around Boots with my Mum a few months ago, looking for something to spend her many boots advantage points on. I needed some eye makeup remover and also a new facial cleanser, so was pleasantly surprised to see that Olay now did ‘Daily Facials’ which were supposed to do both – and more. However, looking at the price – 6.99 for a tub of 30 cloths and then another 5.99 for refills – was it really worth it? ...
...spending (and it’s always hard to find something you really want to buy with them), I wasn’t too bothered and decided I’d try them, and then see if I wanted to spend real money on them later. So what exactly are they? Well, they are 30 cloths, about 6 by 8 inches, in a little plastic tub. This tub is great – it has survived being dropped into a bath, yet it was sealed so tightly that no water got in to ruin the cloths! A ...

Review of Oil of Olay Daily Facials

Oil of Olay is a well known skin care brand for women.For years those lovely people who develop Oil of Olay have been creating different products that help tighten,soften and keep skin refreshed.Best known for it's anti aging products,many women use nothing other than Oil of Olay on a daily basis (and I don't really blame them). And now they've made their service even better by adding these new daily facial products to thousands of shelves around ...
...keep our skin fresh and soft and replace soap,make-up remover,facewash,cleansing milk and toner on a daily basis meaning they save a lot of time in a morning (great news for gals on the go). There are two types of packaging available for these the only real difference being that one lot comes with a tub to keep them in and the other is a refill pack.The one I am going to be talking about is the refill pack (there isn't any difference in the products ...

Review of Oil of Olay Daily Facials

I'm a lazy girl when it comes to skin care - if there is an easy and quick way for me to do I'll try it out. Otherwise its as Miss Love says "When you wake up in your make up . . . ." It was for this reason and a £1.00 voucher off that I chose Olay's Daily Facials. Even with the coupon they are breathtakingly expensive face wipes. I bought mine in Sainsbury's for £4.49 with the discount. The plastic container holds 30 cloths (aaah, that's over 10p ...
...of course. The box is sturdy and easy to open and because the cloths are dry already they don't do the baby wipe thing of drying out. Now Olay seem to justify the expense by asserting that a simple cloth can eradicate several elements of your daily cleansing routine. Namely, your make up remover, soap, facewash, cleansing milk and toner. One instead of five steps which is great after a night out. It also claims to improve your skin's condition ...

Review of Oil of Olay Daily Facials

...a problem. Just slop the Oil of Olay face cream on straight after and I was all peachy smooth again! And they do get rid of mascara so no more waking up looking like a giant panda! To conclude: In my opinion they are a little too dear for everyday use. It is much cheaper to use the foaming facial wash, again by Olay on a daily basis. I would use these wipes after a night out when I really couldn’t be bothered (or couldn’t focus, ahem!!) ...
...And as I seem to be having less and less of these as I get older..altogether now, aarrrrr! I can see that these are going to last me quite a while. So maybe they are not going to work out all that expensive to me after all.?!! I have to go now and put my thinking cap on and see if I can think of another product that will benefit from being turned into yet another wipe?? A wipe that will wipe away an overdraft? One that will wipe off all your mortgage ...

Review of Oil of Olay Daily Facials

Yes, I’m on the trail of special offers again, in my local Superdrug as usual! PACKAGING I bought the refill pack so there may be a difference to the normal packs. The refills come in a box with the Olay logo with the words Daily Facials on it; the cloths themselves are enclosed in a plastic wrapper inside the box. There’s not a lot else I can say about that (I watched Forrest Gump on Sunday!) THE CLOTHS Initially the when the cloths are taken ...
...quarters with a shiny side up. This shiny side is what will create the lather when the cloth is made wet. The cloth has two different sides, one a soft side, which is for gentle cleansing of the more delicate areas of the face like the eyes, and one is a rough side, this is for gentle exfoliation on the main of the face and neck. Each cloth includes pro-vitamin B5, Beta Hydroxy and Witch Hazel which helps with cleansing and helps to remove dirt ...

Review of Oil of Olay Daily Facials

...What's a bloke doing reviewing Oil of Olay Daily Facials, aren't they supposed to be used by girls? Well they are not strictly gor girls are they. I'm a thoroughly modern man, I wash up, do the cooking and vacuuming, clean the bathroom (although I draw the line at toilets) and like to try and look after my skin. I'm also quite a sensitive young man, and my skin seems to take after my personality, it's quite sensitive too! (altogether now, awwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!). ...
...the last few years, but you women do have a much better choice than us men, so every now and then I like to dabble with 'women's bits' and with these Daily Facials, my dabbling seems to have paid off. So enough of the babble, what are these things. Well, to cut to the chase and put it very simply, they are disposable face-cloths. This might seem a bit wasteful, but think about if for a moment. Every morning you wake up and use a face-cloth to clean ...

Review of Oil of Olay Daily Facials

...overpriced. It seems that Oil of Olay have finally come to their senses as I keep seeing them on offer everywhere I go. They are currently priced at £2.99 at Superdrug and that's much more my cup of tea. There are two types depending on your skin type. Being a dried up old minx myself, I went for the normal to dry ones. So, now I've tried them and I must say I'm rather impressed. I did a kind of blind testing and didn't look at my reflection until ...
...long day in London so couldn't have been much grimier. I followed the directions, taking one towelette out of the box. It feels dry to the touch, as you add water when you want to use it rather than risking it dry out in the pack if you don't use it quick enough. The tissue is quite unusual, perforated and quite small - about half the size of a normal tissue. Also it's crossed between material and kitchen towel. It lathers up very well and you ...

Review of Oil of Olay Daily Facials

Olay daily facials were one of those products I'd been quite baffled by. You see, in my eyes there were two different ways to clean your face - with water or without water, using a wipe thing. It seemed to me that these inverntions were a kind of cross between the two - you get a box of things that look like face wipes, but they're not as convenient because you have to use them with water. I was baffled, and had had a sample of the Dove version ...
...buy them!), so I decided against buying them for ages. That was until my dear friend bubblegum_princess (katy to us in the real world) changed my mind. She was using these and raved about them lots and lots (she's quite a dangerous person to be friends with in that respect - everything she's written ops about I've gone out and bought and she's just as convincing in real life!!). Anyway, I went out and got some after being convinced by our katy. I ...

Review of Oil of Olay Daily Facials

I have quite oily and sensitive skin and need to be careful what products I use on it. Most products I have tried in the past have cleansed my skin very well but after a few hours it becomes oily and shiny again. A friend recommended I try these and I bought the Normal/Oily skin version. Product The cloths come in Normal/Dry Skin and Normal/Oily Skin and Sensitive Skin versions. They are supplied in a sealed plastic container within an outer lidded ...
...cardboard outer cover which you need to remove to be able to use the product. The cloths themselves are of a soft material with one side textured for gentle scrubbing of the face. They are impregnated with a soap-less cleanser which is activated once the cloth is wet. You need to wet the cloth under the tap/shower and rub together to produce a lather. You can then use the lathered cloth to cleanse your face and neck. Once finished rinse the cloth ...

Review of Oil of Olay Daily Facials

Not only am I lazy about housework, but I am also lazy about beauty care, so anything which works and saves me time is good in my books. I cannot use normal soap on my face as it dries it too much, and it really seems a lot of effort to use separate cleaners and moisturisers with cotton wool pads, so when I received a voucher for some money off a box of Olay Daily Facials, I thought this might be the answer. •• The packaging •• They come in a snazzy ...
...and 3.5 inches tall which is wrapped in a cardboard covering with all the blurb on it. This is quite good as it means you can remove the cardboard and have a reasonably attractive waterproof box in your bathroom, rather than something which screams out ‘grubby face!’. On the negative side, the box is quite large, so I certainly wouldn’t want to take them on holiday with me, as I’d have to cut down on about 10 pair of knickers! It also looks quite ...

Review of Oil of Olay Daily Facials

As a fan of Olay products, I requested these facial cleanser as a sample. After having used this particular facial cleanser for six months now, I believe I am finally qualified to voice my opinion. Well, read on ... The facial cleanser I have been using are the ones for normal to oily skin. And given the fact that Easter is round the corner, lots of chocolates consumed as well as those yet to be eaten, I think a timely reminder to wash one's face ...
...Packaging ========= When I first bought this, they were selling the 30 cloths in the usual plastic box and it included a smaller box that was useful for travel. I guess that was the gimmick that got me to buy. Once I had the box, all I needed was to buy the refills whenever I need to. I carry the smaller box for my travels but at best, I can squeeze in about 1 week worth of facial cloths. Price ===== Cost of the product in a plastic box varies ...

Review of Oil of Olay Daily Facials

I'm normally inclined to write only about things I have encountered at some length, but I'm making an exception for these wipes. I had a freebie over the weekend and had a go at using them, and I don't feel I need a repeat in order to form an opinion. I know there are women out there who get up in the morning, wash, cleanse and tone their skin before applying makeup, and who then in the evening have to remove the makeup and moisturise their faces ...
...those women. I wash my face on a daily basis, but have found my skin is happiest if I only use water. I do occasionaly use other beauty products, but its not a daily thing with me. I wear makeup maybe once a week, but usually less frequently. I do use moisturising cream a few times a week. This is important information, because I am not, I realise, the woman for whom this product is intended. The idea behind Olay daily facials is quite cunning - ...

...to find my mums new oil of olay daily facials she bought the other day, even though I'm not allowed to use them as for 6.99 for 30 thats quite an extravagant purchase for my mum, who usually insists on buying cheap soap that leaves you skin dry and itchy.But as i was still asleep my mind wasn't thinking properly..of course.so I reach for the facial cloth, I examine the back of the box and look at the pretty lady who is delicately wiping the cloth ...
...What you do with them. THe instructions tell you to wet the cloth slightly with warm water allthough in my case cold would suit me fine in a morning to give me a nice morning wake up call.YOu then rub the cloth between your hands till it goes all lathery and bubbly...then away you go.The wipes that i used were for normal to dry skin and the cloth itself has a mottled pattern on it with lots of little holes so as when cleansing it exfoliates aswell ...
