Olay Niacinamide + Vitamin C Moisturiser

Love this moisturiser and it lives up to all its claims. I used this morning and night for a month,and my skin is so much clearer and brighter. It definitely has active ingredients in it also as after a facial, my skin felt a little tingle when moisturising. My skin is plumper, and brighter and I was able to use less foundation for evening my skin tone.

The consistency of the cream is more gel like. You don't need to apply too much, so it will last well. Immediately after use my skin feels and looks hydrated, and stays that way through the day. It's a great product for those looking for hydration and a glow to their skin... I'd even go as far as saying, my skin is probably looking the best it has in quite a while.

Definitely recommend this moisturiser, and range in general.

Entering my second puberty, oily skin has become my new bugbear! I know I need a moisturiser but I'm also scared to cross that line from glow to oil slick. This moisturiser is amazing. It has a lovely LIGHT citrus scent and a light consistency. It absorbs quickly and leaves your skin feeling like you have put a primer on - not greasy or oily at all but ready for your makeup.

Does my skin look better - yes it does. Definitely less tired, glowing but not an oil slick. It also helps that because it feels so good I am more consistent with applying it!

I like the packaging and when I opened the pottle the fragrance is nice and refreshing, not overpowering. Unfortunately for me I find this moisturiser too watery and I actually don't find it hydrates my skin very well. I prefer a thick moisturiser.

Initially I thought this cream would be a run of the mill Olay moisturiser but it's turned out to be a totally unexpected gem! On my first use my face tingled ALOT and I thought oh no Im reacting but persevered and left it on, next morning application almost no tingling. After about 4 days use I was about to start my morning routine and noticed how good my skin looked - my overall complexion looked brighter, healthier and more refined. I thought..surely not..but it actually does what the box says! Standard instructions are cleanse, tone, serum and moisturise. I chose not to use serums for this trial. It feels super hydrating (my skin just laps it up) but it takes a few minutes to absorb, my skin doesnt feel gluggy or tacky after just hydrated and my make up lasts just as well as my usual moisturisers. It has a really subtle fresh scent and the consistency is like a creamy gel. It comes in a cute 50ml tub and the star ingredients are Vit C and Niacinamide (which has so many benefits for the skin) it says it reduces the look of dark spots which I've noticed (I have hyperpigmentation/melasma) my skin looks more even. The only thing is you need a separate sunblock for day wear.

I have been trialling the Olay Niacinamide with vitamin C moisturiser for 4 weeks now in conjunction with the Olay Eyes Niacinamide & vitamin C every day. The moisturiser Consistently is it thick, a non thick consistency but not watery.

I found that it applies really well and was easy to smooth out over my forehead, nose, cheeks and neck and did not leave any sticky residue after application, just had to give it a minute to settle. There is no applicator and you apply with fingertips. I had to call in the husbands help on a few occasions as I could not remove the inside lid, it has a tiny handle bit. I got fed up and through it out. A bit on 2 fingers with dabs over the face spreads widely. I had to dip in for my neck area but even free a month it still more than half the product left.

The moisturiser is slightly fragrant but not so to overwhelm once sense and does disappear with application.

I used the moisturiser only in the mornings and it does last quite long. However I would recommend using a SPF as I could not see any on the product or the accompanying packaging.

The packaging is cardboard - very tastefully done in turquoise and silver and the actual container looks pretty. I was pretty impressed with no Parabens, no sulphites which my skin hates, and formulated without a list of nasty chemicals.

It did make my skin look and feel brighter and more hydrated, especially at the time of the year where we in Autumn and my skin is prone to dryness. I had no adverse reaction to changing brands - normally when I do I have a few day of redness and slightly irritated skin. At a around $38 - I think personally it is worth it

I don’t often claim my age spots reduce with moisturisers but I do think they have a bit with this Olay Niacinamide & Vitamin C beauty. I normally use the Olay Microsculpting Night cream so this was a nice fresh change. If you can get past the fairly strong citrus fragrance this cream is great for both morning and night. I like the gel-like texture which absorbs really quickly however it was a bit of a faff in the morning having to add a separate layer of SPF, I’m a bit oily so this was an extra layer under makeup as well. I’m definitely going to seek out more Vitamin C products after this trial as I like the results.

I was excited to try this. I have been a long time user of Olay products and think they are amazing. Before trying this product, I used a vitamin c serum every morning.

I have so far been using this product for about 3 weeks, twice a day.

Upon opening the tub, I was amazed at how wonderful the scent is. It make me think of picking oranges.

The moisturiser is so silky and went on well. Does not feel greasy at all. Absorbed quickly and was ready for me to apply my makeup quickly afterwards.

As I already used a vitamin c serum, I didn’t expect any brightening to happen, but wow I was surprised! My skin has not looked this good in ages. It only took a week to notice the difference.

As I use retinol, I was questioning if this would be ok to use at the same time but it was fine! I had no reactions or anything. My skin has been great. I would 100% recommend this product.

Wow! I’m actually quite shocked at how Olay have stepped up to the plate! I was an avid user of the Olay 7 cream which was kind of a bb or cc cream ….. back in the day haha!

The formula is like a whipped cream gel, which just glides on so smooth! Your skin feels like it’s just had a drink . Which is rare these days as the older I get , although at 42 I still have oily skin , it is slowly drying out and getting really dull.

Not anymore! There was no irritation at all! My skin have really loved this cream, it does say morning and night which is awesome , one step uhhh yes please! Just wish it had SPF though. Only downfall.

My skin is brighter and really dewy . Looks plumped , I think radiant is a great word . Even skin tone . I don’t have pigmentation or freckles on my face even though I’m half ginger . I should start using on my arms to see if any pigmentation reduces? Why? Cause those redhead freckles on sun exposed areas drive me nuts haha. Amazing on others I’m just picky about my arms .

Highly recommend for brighter even toned skin !

This is such a nice soft moisturiser. You don't need much to fully hydrate your face. I haven't seen any viable results as yet but am looking forward to seeing some soon.

This is a lively cream that absorbed well without greasiness. I love the fresh citrus like fragrance. My skin is starting look tired with age and layered with stress it needed a refresh. This, after a few weeks brightened my skill well.
