Advantages: A nice rich moisturiser Disadvantages: Price
...used the original oil of olay for years, it is one of those things that i have never bothered to change. It suited my skin and was a decent price. I was running low and asked my sister to pick me up some more, seeing as she works in Boots. She turned up with this one, i pointed out to her ( very nicely!) that this was not the one i asked for and was also about 4 times the price. To which she said that she thought she would treat me ( she's up to ... ...go.
HISTORY
---------------
Olay was created by a chemist called Graham Wulff in the 1950's. Back then women used thick and greasy creams that came in tins that looked like the old style shoe polish.
He used his wife as his guinea pig ( good job they were happy! )
And he also did a lot of research by talking and listening to women ( yes, listening ). He found out that the majority of women wanted young and beautiful skin.
Using this he came ...

Advantages: Latest product from Olay Disadvantages: Everything, leaves skin shiny and sticky.
...always been a lover of Olay products, and when I saw the advert for this new 'wonder' cream I thought I would give it a go.
Although this product is over £20.00, judging by the advert it was supposed to give your skin a luminous effect.
I was not at all impressed by this product, a definate let down by Olay. Granted the impressive packaging looks really fancy, and you would expect a cream that costs over the £20.00 mark to work wonders, but in ... ...the cheaper Olay creams on the market.
The cream itself is a mousse, which is quite different, and on application it glided on easily, but I found that the mousse did not absorb very well into my skin and left my skin feeling sticky and somewhat shiny.
I wont waste the product, as it cost a bomb, but after an hour the mousse still had not absorbed into my skin, even when I minimized the application of the mousse it still made my skin look as if ...

...I have tryed lots of olay products but i can honestly say i had instant results, i was so amazed, it reduced my tiny red lines after two applications, hand on my heart it really did, i woke up after 2 days i thought oh my god it really does work.
It glides on evenly and feels light not heavy and it does not look like you have oily skin like some do.
It reduces dark patches and reduces dark spots that you acquire over the years
It gives back some ... ...to lose some of this. Olay allows your skin to be able to do this again and glow.
Hemoglobin and Uneven Tone:- Hemoglobin and bloodcells that flow through the skin through blood vessels also get damaged and sometimes they break creating red fine lines, olay reduces these lines, like i said they really do . Put it to the test yourself you will be surprised.
Last of all olay plumps up your skin to give you an over over even tone
Definatly worth ...

Advantages: Lovely smell super-soft skin with enhanced texture. Disadvantages: No SPF
Fantastic product. The packaging is lovely, the pump dispenser avoids germs getting into cream as it can with jars.
The cream has a lovely texture and a fabulous smell. My skin was instantly baby soft after the first use. The texture of my skin improved after a few weeks of use, less noticeable lines, uneven tones and pores. It provides a great base for make-up too. I would recommend to anybody looking to improve the look/texture of teir skin.
... ...is absorbed quickly leaving your skin feeling plump, fresh and taut. It gives a dewy glow, and my skin feels nourished througout the day. The only thing I don't like is that it doesn't offer any SPF, meaning extra products need to be used, but all in all I would recommend I'm very impressed. ...

Advantages: Excellent results, lovely feel Disadvantages: Price! It's cheaper on Ebay from the US, including shipping!
I lvoe this foamy creamy moisturiser, it's cleared my skin up and it's lovely and glowing. People are commenting. It comes in a dispenser like hari mousse, and you shake it and press a button release the faom. Warning! A little goes a long way and press very gently as lots will come out. the foam melts into your skin and makes it feel lovely and smooth. My only concern is the price and the amount given to you. I bought mine after Christmas 2006 in ... ...which isn't good enough. For £25, I expected this to last. I've also found that you can buy this from the US, and including P and P, it's a cheaper buy than in the UK (I bought two bottles for £20 inc P&P). No doubt this is due to the exchange rate, but still, you'd think that they'd make this more affordable. It's not Chanel or Lancome, which command a high price because they're premium products. ...

Advantages: None Disadvantages: Severe Reaction that felt like sunburn
I had a terrible reaction to this product which I have never had with any other product. My skin felt as though it had been burnt - I would definitely NOT recommend this product to anyone - unless I really didn't like them.
The product is harmful to your skin - DO NOT use it - please do a patch test befofe using it to avoid the same thing happening to you.
If I could have given this ZERO stars I would have done.
Terrrible smell of the product ... ...what little there are of them - say that it has been dermitologically tested - quite clearly it has not been tested enough. I have never had a product do this to me before and it was quite traumatic to have my face and neck swell up into a red ball - quite frightening. ...
