Since Olay Moisturising Body Wash was brought out a few years ago, other manufacturers have slowly jumped on the bandwagon and brought out their own moisturising washes – including Dove, Boots and Original Source, but Olay still seems to be the best, and most popular brand.
Before Olay, most shower gels were just that: a gel, which would create a lather, smell nice (usually fruity!) and keep you clean, but that was about it. Olay went a step further ...

“Hmmmm. Oil of Olay Moisturising Body Wash. That’s a new one. The wee one and her mum must have been scouring the shelves in the local chemist again. And what’s this little sponge thingy for, I wonder?”

Advantages: cleans and moisturises, can be bought with replacement puff, lovely scent Disadvantages: wish it was on offer more
...moisturising formula, that like other Oil of Olay products, works to mimic the body's own natural moisturisers. What you are supposed to do is wet this net like sponge called a body puff, available with the bottle if you wish to buy as a set, and put about a 10 pence sized drop of the rich creamy white fluid on it. Then rub all over your body and be amazed at the full rich lather that slithers over your skin, cleansing and refreshing your poor tired ...

Advantages: creamy, moisturising, washes well Disadvantages: bland fragrance, badly designed packaging, inferior to some other brands
...Asda and this one – Oil of Olay’s moisturising body wash.
Therefore, when I bought the Oil of Olay one, hubby wasn’t quite sure why I needed it. I tried to explain it was highly recommended by Ciao, but he just raised his eyes skywards and sighed deeply. So I thought I’d plead my case here and try to explain why I bought it, to those who will understand.
I have only become a convert to showers in the last couple of months, ...

...a couple of years ago, Oil of Ulay (or Olay as it seems to be called now) was not a brand name that I would have given a second thought to. As far as I was concerned the brand was associated with the rich, famous, old and sorry mum, my mother. Oil of Olay advertising claimed that their facial creams helped 'reduce the signs of ageing'. Being a fairly young looking 31 year old, this kind of slogan did not appeal to me. I have always wanted to look ...

I was an Oil of Olay Bodywash virgin until a month ago, when I found that Superdrug was offering BOGOF on 400ml bottles…. So I thought I’d try it. I believe usual price is roughly £4.20
I do need to be relatively picky with my body products as my skin is very dry. Before this bodywash, I would use A N Other shower gel, and then sparingly apply a layer of baby oil whilst still wet out of the shower. This would help prevent snake skin once ...

Advantages: leaves skin soft, great smell Disadvantages: can be expensive
...had a bath and used Oil of Olay Moisturising Body Wash, it made me drift back to my holiday in Florida.
It's funny how certain smells remind you of a person or place isn't it?
I went to Orlando a few years ago and we had hired a massive villa with three bedrooms, two bathrooms etc. There is only two of us but we like to enjoy the luxury for two weeks at least, as we will never be able to afford this in real life.
When I went into the spare bathroom ...

Advantages: Does its job and leaves you with moisturised and smooth skin Disadvantages: the bland fragrance and the price
Oil of Olay Moisturising Body Wash
My mum was recently given this as a present. As I'd run out of my own body wash, I knew my mum wouldn't mind if I used a bit of hers until I could go to the shops.
Price:
As we received it as a gift with a body puff and moisturising cream. I don't know the price of the gift set itself but I had a quick check at Boots for the price of Oil of Olay Moisturising Body Wash and it costs £3.49, which I find expensive ...

Advantages: you feel sexy after a shower without having to slap on moisturisers that may compromise this feeling. Disadvantages: none but those on your wallet.
...and I personally feel that Oil of Olay is slightly better than Dove (which also comes with a body puff). It really is an excellent product. If you need more incentive, this moisturising body wash has also won an award for being the best women's product of the year. I would most definitely recommend this product. ...

...in our house to use Oil of Ulay products, it was not until Christmas when I received an Oil of Ulay gift set that I realised how good the product was. When I received the present, I received a scrunchie, with it. It’s common these days to get one with their products.
The showergel is so smooth and has such a nice fragrance that it is very nice on your body, I have sensitive skin, and my skin can be easily irritated but with Oil of Ulay products ...

...for me (how they view Oil of Olay products) and waited for the storm. I remained overjoyed and proceeded to have a shower.
It smelt gorgeous, a little bit like a strong baby powder. I only needed to use a 'little dab' like the instructions said and the lather was enough for the whole of me. I am not a huge person, but there was definitely enough to froth over another body too (if I was so inclined).
It says that it is PH balanced (I haven't ...

...is the key.
I brought Oil of Olay Moisturising Body Wash because I wanted a change from my usual brand of shower gel. Over the last few months, shower products have been drying out my skin, leaving it feeling itchy and rough. The Oil of Olay Moisturising Body Wash appealed to me because Oil of Olay have a good reputation in skincare.
The Body wash smelled very fresh and clean and lathered really quickly. The bonus for long legged people like ...

...I have ever tried an Oil of Olay product, but if they are anything like this I plan to purchase some! This body wash is white, very thick and creamy and is best applied to the body using an exfoliator from Boots, the kind that are made out of some type of net, so that you can bring it up into a lather! And you will get the best lather you have ever experienced! It smells absolutely gorgeous, and washes off well without leaving the feeling of it being ...

The only thing about it is if you use too much its too greasey and your body feels oily. So mabe use only what you need in small ...
