Stunning Serum

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.

Tips: Just try it

Confusing Instructions

So when it comes to my skincare, I do it all. Toner, serum, moisturiser, retinol, face oil. I don't really have a favourite serum, I pretty much go through all the samples I receive when I buy makeup. So when I was given the opportunity to try out this serum, I was quite excited to give an actual full size product a go.

The first thing I want to mention is what I found to be extremely awkward instructions to actually get any of the product out - it stated to twist and turn the cap to automatically draw out the serum. Sounded simple enough. Not for me. After I while I gave up as it didn't always draw out any of the product by following the method on the box. Potentially could had been user error, however I found easy enough just to tip out the amount I serum I needed.

Speaking of the box, the instructions on the box needed to be in a bolder font like the font on the moisturiser box as I did find it a little difficult to read. The scent. There isn't really one, so if you like your skincare to smell "clean" then you may like this one.

Now onto more about the product. To me it seemed like every other serum. Being that I was using it in conjunction with the moisturiser, it is hard to say whether it was the serum alone that helped my skin look clearer and the pigmentation fade more than it had in the past, but after the 7 weeks of using this product (and the moisturiser) things are starting to look better on the/my face front. I'm still not fully ready to give up my foundation quite yet, however potentially using this product longer may make me one day.

Just an FYI, the serum doesn't last as long as the moisturiser. The serum finished for me at the end of week 7 of using it however I still have a lot of the moisturiser left. Potentially may had run out of the serum quicker because of the way I was dispersing it out of the bottle but being that I never really used a lot of serum (there was no need to), bear in mind your moisturiser may last longer than your serum.

...I'm yet to find my Holy Grail face serum!

Lovely Duo

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.

Tips: With warning on containers be aware do not expose yourself to too much sun and use a SPF50 sunscreen as you are more likely to burn.

Bright and happy skin

My initial thoughts when receiving the Olay Niacinamide + AHA serum was that the packaging was beautiful, but possibly looked like it was aimed at a slightly younger audience than myself. It very clearly states what problem areas the product works for. The bottle has a very cool screw top with a pop out button as you open it, which is used to suck up the serum into an eye dropper for use. I usually need to use 1-2 pumps for my face - the box or bottle don't say what the recommended amount to use is, other than to apply evenly to face.

Much like the moisturiser, the serum has a lovely citrus scent, which I personally don't believe is over-powering. However, I do like it when my products have a mild scent. It instantly left my skin feeling very smooth and soft. As serums go, it's a fairly thick one, like if you put a glob on your hand it won't roll/drip off, a little goes a long way and it absorbs very quickly into the skin, leaving a soft smooth feeling afterwards. I've thought for weeks about how to describe this smooth feeling and still can't quite explain it, it's like an invisible layer, which once washed off the feeling is gone, at least initially, as overall my skin felt smoother after using the product, but in a different way.

During the first week, in the first hour or two after application my skin did feel hot and looked a little bit redder. I was using it with the moisturiser as well and tried different combinations of leaving one off, but it did seem to be caused by an active ingredient in both the products. After the hour or so, this subsided and after the first week it seemed that I no longer had any reaction. It's possibly very similar to when people first start using retinol, as now I don't have any reaction at all (other than the great results, which I'll write about below)

I've now been using the product for around a month, maybe longer. I'm really loving the smell of it and my skin is looking so much clearer and smoother. I'm amazed at the results and can barely believe it, as I've been struggling with my skin a lot in the last year and it's finally starting to look less red, bumpy and tired. I really do believe the claims given in the product, as there are some spots I'd tried so hard to get rid of, and now have disappeared. I'm really loving how bright my skin is looking and would definitely use this product again.

Tips: Use 1-2 pumps to cover your face evenly with the product.

I experienced some heat and redness an hour or so after using the product in the first week. It settled down after that. Just ease your skin into using it, due to the active ingredients.

Love!

On first glance honestly, I couldn’t even open the bottle! But after a quick google the way it’s designed is awesome! Easy to travel with and hard to spill. The feeling of this product is amazing on the skin, and my skin looks clearer every single day. A little goes a long way!

Olay Niacinamide + AHA Serum

I have used the Olay Niacinamide + AHA Serum (in combination with Olay Niacinamide + AHA Moisturiser) on a daily basis for a number of weeks now.

The bottle has a great dropper to disperse the serum on to your finger tips! The dropper also prevents too much serum being dispersed.

I found the texture of this serum was thick and creamy, in a nice way and the aroma is gorgeous.

The serum was easily absorbed into my face without leaving an oily layer, no clogging of pores. I have a slightly oily face and this serum didn't make my face any oilier.

Olay have quite a few claims regarding this serum. I definitely found my face brighter, but not sure the dark sports were reduced (maybe more time will tell).

I definitely like this product and the positive effects it has my skin!

Great product, 3in 1

My most used skincare ingredients are Vitamin C, Niacinamide and AHA. So when I saw a product that combines 3 in 1, I just had to jump on board. Thank you Beauty Review for the opportunity to trial.

Let's first talk about the packaging. This is my second Olay serum and I read reviews before that some people find it hard to use the dropper but honestly, I find it super easy. Plus it's very hygienic and no chance of losing even a drop.

The only con is I can't see how much of the product is left. Overall love the packaging, it's elegant and pretty.

The texture is in between a light moisturizer and a gel, and looks creamy. I find it quite lightweight and absorbs really fast and well too.

It has some fragrance in it which is fine to me but people who prefer unscented products may not appreciate it.

I don't have problematic skin and neither spots so I can't comment on how it removes spots. However, I can say my skin looks much nicer and clearer, with a healthy glow.

It makes my skin looks fresh and bright.

Also I really like the idea of combining 3 ingredients which means you don't have to use a separate serum for each ingredient. Win, win.

Tips: Because Vitamin C usually takes a long time to show results you may not see results from this serum as fast as you'd like too but just keep using it, it definitely improves the skin.

Pump up the serum

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.

Tips: Great for 50 plus age spots

Redness and scaring reduced in two weeks!

First off let’s start with the packaging! I love it! The dropper give you the perfect amount of serum everytime! It’s easy to use, looks pretty on your dresser and helps stop product wastage!

Onto the serum itself! I loved it! Not an overly heavy serum and massages into the skin nicely and effortlessly. It does have a scent but nothing too strong and overpowering. After two weeks of consistent use I noticed old pimple scars fading considerably, my skin feeling smoother and redness seemed to lessen.

I easily get irritated skin around my nose and this serum didn’t cause any irritation at all.

Tips: The serum it’s self is not overly hydrating! So would suggest using with the matching moisturiser or a good moisturiser.

Favourite serum!!

I love the elegant packaging of this product. The twist to open is really high quality and easy to use and i love how the dropper dispenses the perfect amount as it is really easy to use too much serum.

The product is really light and absorbs easily so you don't have to wait around before the rest of your routine. I can tell it is definitely working to reduce scars and discolouration on my face and my skin feels a lot softer and smoother as well.

I really enjoyed this product and will be repurchasing.

Tips: Use sunscreen while using this product as it can make skin more susceptible to burning and sun damage
