Luxurious feel but beware of irritation

The first thing to note is that this is a retinol cream - that means your skin will be more susceptible to sun damage (so ALWAYS wear sunscreen when using this cream) and can become irritated if you use retinol too frequently.

This cream has a very luxurious smooth feel that soaks into the skin nicely, and a very little scent which I appreciate. I have already been using retinol for ~6 months so I used this cream once every 2 evenings (you have to slowly introduce your skin to retinol or you will risk irritation). My skin is very sensitive, but surprisingly suffered no irritation with this cream which is a huge plus! However to be honest I haven't seen much obvious improvement in my skin beyond being extra moisturised. This could be because I was already using retinol, or maybe I need to use it more frequently. Either way, this is a very nice night cream that requires a bit of schedule experimentation, and is worth a try.

Tips: Only apply at night and USE SUNSCREEN during the day!

I was really surprised to enjoy this product so mu

My first impression was that the packaging was nice and sleek, and very full. I really liked that when I undid the seal, there was no smell that came flying out of the container. I tested the product on my hand and it felt very smoothing. It is much like most night creams, nice and thick.

When I first put the product on my face it reminded me of putting on a primer, it was very smoothing. It also didn't feel greasy like some night creams can. The first couple of times I tried the product I noticed my skin felt soft in the morning, but nothing too out of the ordinary. It was after a couple of weeks that I noticed how bright/fresh my skin was looking without make up. My cheeks felt quite plump, and make make up looked very smooth on my skin. I also really liked that I woke up and could touch my face and it felt like skin, rather than oily. For such a moisturizing product, it was really light on the skin.

I started to use it closer to my eye area when I realised there was no scent. I still have a dedicated eye cream that I prefer, but I found it felt very nice around my eyebrows and temples.

Given the retinol content it is a product you have to build up your tolerance to before it becomes your every day holy grail, but I will definitely keep using this in the future.

Tips: I would tell people to use less than they expect, as I found it spread out more than I expected.

I loved taking this product down my neck and how it helped with smoothing and firming around my jaw and neck.

Not as scary as expected!

I was so thankful to be invited to trial this product as I have had my eye on retinol products for a while now. At first, I own't lie, I was super nervous as its such a powerful ingredient and the instructiuons sent from BR before the product arrived had me on edge! Having said that, I was slightly surprised there were not more detailed instructions on the box - I can only assume because this is sold in supermarkets, the active ingredient is not hugely powerful.

The box is much bigger than the jar requires which is slightly misleading, even though the jar is 'normal' sized. The product itself smells good (there is no fragrance which can sometimes make the product smell quite chemical) and its just a lovely, riuch textured cream. I followed instructions to use once a week at first, and I had no reactyions so gradually increased my usage. Other than feeling very moisturised, I didn't notice a huge difference in my skin. Perhaps this will chnage the longer and more frequently I use it. I would possibly purchase this again as it made my skin nice and soft and was rich enough to hydrate my skin all night.

As this is gentle enough to use every night, it is probably a great first step to using retinol, as some of the 'clinical' brands are quite harsh.

Tips: Do a patch test and make sure to wash off well in the morning and use an SPF and avoid the sun the next day.

Olay Retinol Moisturiser

I have really enjoyed using the Olay Retinol Moisturiser over the last 2 weeks. The cream has a nice consistency and feels really nice on your skin. it soaks in and leaves you skin feeling really soft. I think the trial is a bit to short to say if it helps with fine lines. Due to the nature of the cream having Retinol in it and having to use only a couple of times per week initially i have not seen a change in wrinkles. But my skin is feeling softer and smoother and i have not had any breakouts using this cream and i have with others. The packaging is good, i like it when a face cream comes in a tub because nothing is wasted. Will keep using a hope to see some changes in fine lines!

Not just another night cream

To be honest when I went to try this I was like hmmm ok another night cream promising the world... Just days before I got this product I looked at my tired face and was like ok time to do something! Container is pretty who doesnt love a bit of purple, after doing a patch test I waited the 2 days and had no reaction so put it all over my face, it was nice and cool and light feeling. i didnt need too much and it spread easily on my skin. There was a slight tingling sensation in some places but only noticeable for a short time. The smell was pleasant not overpowering as some can be. So off to sleep I went and in the morning when brushing my teeth I noticed the skin around my eyes looked a lot tighter, thinking I was still half a sleep I was shocked and in disbelief that something could work so well after just one application! So I waited the 2 nights as recommended and applied again. Same results! I was not dreaming. I am still trying to work our whether you get long term benifits or if it's just a case of having good results the day after you use it, but either way I'm loving it. The only thing that has me hesitant about this product is the warnings that come with it about avoiding the sun and making sure you have a good SPF on the next morning. It also recommends you are not using other products with retinol in it at the same time. I dont know a lot about retinol so cant comment further on it just makes me a bit cautious as to what the product is made up of. Will I keep using it? Definitely, would I recommend it? Highly likely. Would I buy it again not sure at this point would wait until I have used the whole jar and see how I feel about it then but quite likely.

Tips: You dont need a lot, make sure you do the patch test and wear your sunscreen the following morning

Magic in a pot

This cream is amazing. I have noticed such a difference in the clarity of my skin and fine lines have become slightly less visible. It is a very thick cream which I kind of like for a night cream. My skin feels extremely soft and smooth in the morning and I don't look as though a havnt slept in 5 years. I would definitely recommend this to friends and family.

Tips: Definitely make sure to wear an spf during the day, there was one day I forgot and I could feel it burning instantly.

Feels good, smells good, but not the one for me!

While I felt like my trial of the product wasn't long enough to notice any significant changes in my fine lines and wrinkles, I could definitely appreciate other qualities within the product. My favourite aspect of this product was the texture. I could feel an instant softness and smoothness to my skin after application. I also really loved the fragrance - it was super fresh! My face was definitely left looking brighter. While I'm keen to continue using this product, I'm also a bit hesitant to do so over the summer months. As someone with very fair skin and being aware that the product may cause more sensitivity to the sun, I think I'll park this on the shelf until autumn rolls around. Given that sun exposure can increase signs of skin aging, I'd rather not undo the benefits of the product by increasing my skin's already great sensitivity to the sun's rays. I'm looking forward to trialling this product for a longer time and seeing whether it improves the fine lines and wrinkles in my skin that come with aging.

Tips: I noticed my skin was quite sensitive to the moisturiser when I first used it - it stung a bit. It helped to slowly introduce it to my skin rather than committing to a daily application straight away. I started off using it every 2-3 days then slowly increased my application.

All round winner

This is a fabulous night cream that I loved instantly. It contains retinol to improve fine lines and wrinkles. After using this product for a week I saw a difference, The main benefits i saw were smoother skin, soft to the touch, and my fine lines around my eyes and forehead appeared reduced.

The texture of the cream is silky and soft to the touch and sinks in straight away, its easy to use and there is no greasiness residue. Comfortable and light weight to wear, my skin looks fresher, brighter and smoother after I use this nightcream. It’s nicely packaged so also makes a nice gift and I feel it’s great value as a little goes a long way so it lasts for quite a while.

Tips: Bring the cream down to your neck and chest to extend the benefits

Smooth intro to retinol

Anyone who's aware of retinol as a skincare ingredient has likely heard that it can take a lot for your skin to build up a tolerance to it. If it's not used with caution it can be harsh, causing dry, cracked skin that can put you off this extremely effective ingredient!

The good news is, Olay's Regenerist Retinol 24 Night Moisturiser gives you all of the best parts of a retinol product, and none of the bad. My skin took to it like a duck to water, no adjustment period needed, and only smooth, clear skin after three weeks' of use.

As well as the lack of irritation for my skin (disclaimer: I have used prescription-strength retinol and my skin definitely has a tolerance- the label still warns of potential mild skin irritation), I also liked that this moisturiser is fragrance-free, absorbs quickly, and is nice and thick. I found it very straightforward to switch out my existing evening product for this one and like the weighty purple jar it's packaged in.

In three week's of consistent use I noticed that my skin didn't break out, it looks a little smoother, and it looks hydrated. What I didn't notice though, was any difference in pigmentation, dark spots, or an obvious reduction in fine lines. Perhaps with continued use these might become apparent?

The one thing I'd change about the product as a whole is the lid under the jar top which keeps quite a tight seal on the moisturiser and can be challenging to remove. Just one of those little things that stops you completely loving something! Or it might just be me...

I would heartily recommend this product to someone in their 20's and upwards who's keen to experiment with retinols. But be patient, results can take awhile to show up!

Tips: If you know that your skin doesn't agree with silicones, I'd probably avoid this one- dimethicone is listed in the first few ingredients.

Olay Regenerist Retinol 24 Night Moisturiser

I was excited to try this as I am in my 30's now and have begun an anti-ageing skincare routine. I have already been using a Retinol serum for over a year so I already had a tolerance and could dive right into using this night cream.

I kept the rest of my skincare super simple while trialing this so I could really gauge its effectiveness. I stopped using my Retinol serum and just paired this with a simple cleanser in the evening to avoid any irritations.

This product comes in really nice packaging. A purple tub with a silver lid. While I don't think its glass (more of a thick plastic), its very sturdy so wont break when travelling.

As a dry skin gal, I usually go for a super rich, heavy night cream that leaves my skin feeling wet. The finish with this cream is different, unlike any I've used. It dries down really quick and leaves an almost powdery finish on the skin. It still feels very hydrating and my skin doesn't feel tight in the morning.

I've been using this cream now for just shy of three weeks and have noticed a reduction in my problem areas (smile lines around the mouth and under my eyes). My skin also has a noticeable increase in smoothness. I will keep using this until it is finished and provide any updates.

Tips: Retinol can make your skin sensitive to the sun so only use it in the evening, and make sure you wear an SPF daily.
