Today we're looking at skin care do-it-all products. When it comes to skin care you can either purchase products to target very specific concerns, like say, an uneven skin tone or fine lines. Or you can look for a product that tackles various causes of an issue, or offers a solution to more than one skincare problem.
Products that tackle more than one concern are generally more cost effective and environmentally friendly. They also mean we don't have to cart our whole beauty kit around with us, or clutter our vanities with dozens of jars and pots and tubes.
And what about TIME?! A do-it-all product saves us time. I mean seriously, how long does it take you to cycle through your skincare routine? Applying something to address this, something to fix that, leaving each product for a few minutes before applying the next and so on. WHO has the time?!
We're putting the Olay Total Effects 7 in One Day Cream to the test. It is what it sounds like - a daily facial cream that tackles 7 effects of ageing:
- Fine lines and wrinkles: reduces the appearance of fine line and wrinkles.
- Uneven tone: balances and evens out skin tone.
- Age spots: reduces appearance of age spots.
- Uneven texture: smoothes and evens out skin texture.
- Dryness: provides nourishing moisturisation.
- Dullness: gives skin a healthy radiance.
- Pores: minimises the appearance of pores.
This lovely product nourishes, softens and smooths your skin and improves tired-looking skin leaving you looking healthy, fresh and radiant. All while reducing the look of fine lines and spots. It's also oil-free, fast-absorbing, dermatologically tested and non-comedogenic. Oh and it also has SPF15 to help protect against sun exposure, the number one cause of premature visible ageing!
I turned 30 last year and in the last couple of years I’ve begun to notice the differences of aging on my skin. I used to have oily, acne-prone skin, but now I’ve noticed it gets drier, prone to dull-ness and has very uneven skin tone with a lot of hyper-pigmentation. Usually I use several products to help combat this, I’d be interested to see how effective this is!
