Olay Niacinamide + AHA Serum

Can we just take a moment to appreciate the box packaging and the product packaging!!!! Who ever designed them have an eye for detail, beauty and highend looks.

This was a beautiful product!!!! It smells beautiful like a highend fresh apple just like the moisture. The consistency is the a very thin lotion with a white transparent look to it. A small amount goes along way and makes my skin feel extra soft and smooth, it has a slight cooling effect when rubbed into the skin It absorbeds nicely into the skin and leaves a smooth hydrating, slightly tacky feel. My skin after the trial was so much nicer, brightener looking, soft, hydrated and smooth. (I even had compliments on my skin without makeup on) This product did NOT break me out. This product worked amazing under makeup and worked amazing with the moisture. Highly recommend

From the outset this product exuded indulgence, it's packing and container are beautiful. I found this serum light on my skin and it smells absolutely devine. I have been using this serum for 6 weeks and have noticed that my skin is so much brighter and the tone is a lot more even. A dark patch if pigmentation I have had on my check for years is now lightened significantly and my skin feels so smooth and nourished. The only down side was that I ran out of serum a lot quicker than expected. I was using it morning and night and it lasted just over a month, for its price point I would've hoped it would last longer. I would still however definitely buy this again if on special and would recommend to others who want a brighter clearer complexion

I had a total blonde moment with this product that I’m not proud of but will share anyway. The box for the product is very shiny and a darkish green colour on the sides, making it hard to read the very small instructions written in black on the box. I worked out how to twist the top of the bottle so the pump applicator pops up – was doing well so far! – I pumped it twice which was recommended on the box but couldn’t for the life of me work out how to get the product out of the bottle. Ashamed to say it took me a good 10 minutes to work out that after you’ve pumped the applicator that you have to screw the top off the bottle to dispense the serum. Heavy sigh, yes I’m a natural blonde. Now that I was fully aware of how to use the applicator correctly, I dispensed the serum onto my palm. I had a bit of an “is this it?” moment with the quantity that was dispensed, but that very small amount easily covered my whole face. The serum has a slight fragrance which is pleasant, and the fact that a tiny amount goes such a long way is a huge bonus. The serum goes on smoothly and instantly absorbs with no greasiness or residue, and it feels like there’s nothing on your face. Used in conjunction with the AHA Moisturiser twice a day, within a week I had noticed a marked improvement in my skin condition, appearance and texture. You also definitely use a lot less moisturiser with having the serum on your skin first, another great bonus of this product. After four weeks of using this product twice a day my skin is almost glowing, my rosacea has markedly reduced and my skin feels AMAZING. This product now on my Must Have list and I will be definitely purchasing it once my trial bottle runs out. The only downside of this product is the glass bottle is white and the serum is an opaque white, so I can’t actually tell how much of the product I have left in the bottle.

I've had great results with this serum, definitely improved breakouts and any small spots resolved almost overnight! It's a nice light serum that sinks into the skin quickly. I love the dropper bottle, it makes it easy to use and control the quantity. Also a small amount goes a long way. It has a yummy scent that isn't too strong and hasn't irritated my skin. Overall, I would repurchase this serum!

A few pumps of the serum and onto the face, it is easy to apply and a nice scent, great coverage over the face. It seems to be doing a great job as my face feels great. Any surplus and I rub it on my hands.

The first thing you notice about this product is the packaging, and it’s really nice. The serum has a dropped, and the lid pushes in to make the serum come out. The push top lid locks in place when you shut it which is great for travel.

This made it easy and mess free to put on. It was not runny, and would stay in place on my hand rather than running all over the place.

The serum is quite glossy, and when you put it on your skin definitely glows.

I have always had an uneven skin tone, and I genuinely think this has improved how my skin looks. I think my skin looks much brighter, and almost clearer without make up. After three or four weeks of consistently wearing this serum and moisturizer, I began to get comments from good friends asking if I had changed my make up, or done something differently. This skincare was the only new thing in my routine. I started to see a change myself, and noticed the brighter look to my skin.

I liked the smell - it reminds me of something but I cannot work out what. It is not super overpowering which is nice as I don’t like my face to smell like a rose.

The price interested me. I saw the same line at a local chemist for $59.99. At first I was quite shocked because I have never known this brand to be expensive, but then I haven’t used this brand since I used to borrow my grandmas when I was a kid. Given the quality of this product, I would have no issues buying it in future and would be happy with the price point. I have paid significantly more than this for skincare in the past and it is definitely comparable.

I have normal skin, occasionally a bit dry but usually I haven’t had enough water! I think it was definitely moisturizing enough when used with a moisturizer, but you couldn’t use just the serum like you can with some products.

After using it for six straight weeks, I have plenty left and will continue using it until I reach the end. I’d definitely consider buying this and the moisturizer when I run out.

This serum is a lightweight gel consistency, it glides onto the skin leaving my face smooth and hydrated and absorbs quickly, you can wear it by itself or under a moisturiser. It has a light fruity (peachy?) scent that’s pleasant to my nose and not at all irritating. As with most Olay products the bottle is sleek and looks nice on your dresser, the dropper has a unique design with a button pump that dispenses just the right amount of serum for your whole face and neck. I’ve used this for almost a month now and I’ve noticed that my face is definitely a bit smoother and brighter and more even in general - I had some spots and pimples and post-acne marks that definitely cleared faster than they usually do so that was a bonus for me. The price varies a bit place-to-place but I see it’s on sale at Chemist Warehouse for $38 at the time of this review which in my mind is a pretty good deal, personally with Olay products I think it pays to shop around as they’re quite often on sale and you can snap up a good bargain. For me I couldn’t really fault this and it delivered on its claims, so if you’re looking for a serum that gently exfoliates and leaves the skin looking brighter and more even then check this one out.

Thanks BR Babes for another awesome opportunity.

I was really excited to trial this product (along with the moisturiser). I feel like Olay is such an underrated range that always delivers really great products, and this was no exception.

The serum is in their awesome dispenser bottle - when you screw the cap down it de-presses the little pump and fills the tube with the perfect amount of product, so when you unscrew the lid you just press down and it delivers the right amount of product for one use.

The serum itself is really lightweight and absorbs beautifully. I've been using this for 6 weeks now and have really noticed a difference in my skin's texture and sunspots. I do have a really stubborn sunspot that I had hoped would disappear, it's still there but is lighter so I'm going to purchase this again and hope it gets rid of it completely.

I love using a serum as my skin is so dry and this one is really lovely. I bought with my points and got the moisturiser at the same time and I just love the combination. The serum has a faint scent and is really so nice to apply and absorbs so well. my skin is always hungry for moisturisers and certainly loves Olay products. My skin feels so soft and is slowing reducing the age marks on my face which is great.Olay has been around a long time and I have never been disappointed with any of their products and this is no exception.

I have been using Olay Niacinamide + AHA Super Serum for 5 weeks now on a 1 on 1 off basis at night with the Olay Niacinamise + AHA Moisturiser. I started to use both the moisturiser and super serum together, as instructed twice a day, but found there was just too much moisture for my combination skin. So I resorted to using 1 at a time in rotation each night only (as I was hesitant to use for day use due to the increased risk of sun burn and the need to apply a sunscreen too - which would be a step too far in a build up of moisture on my oily areas). I do actually think my skin is more luminous, and have noticed a reduction in darker areas of sun damage/freckles.  Maybe I am abit slow on new technology, but it took me a while to work out how the dispenser pump worked! In saying that it does seem to suck up the correct amount for coverage. I use a full dropper to cover my face and neck. It does absorb quickly and my skin is definitely still moist in the morning and the effect continues all day with a great soft and smooth texture. A couple of very dry patches have reduced with the regime of serum and moisturiser. I love the light peach fragrance which is very subtle. I truly believe you can always rely on Olay to provide innovative product. Availability at the supermarket will guarantee my continued usage.
