Olay Regenerist Collagen Peptide 24 Serum

I’ll start with the positives! This serum is a lovely consistency, it’s silky, smooth and applies to the skin easily without feeling sticky or oily. But that’s pretty much where it ends for me.

At first the packaging seemed quite innovative and easy to use but it really wasn’t. The twisty pump is fiddly and doesn’t always work. I would have preferred a regular pump that dispenses the correct amount of product each time.

This serum does not mix well with any of the other products in my skin care routine so I had to stop using them all while I tried this product (I’ve also reviewed the matching cream which is the only product that does apply with no issues).

It also left a light film on my face sort of like a primer which is fine but is also the reason I couldn’t use my other skin care products as it ended up separating with gooey streaks.

For the two weeks that I trialled this product I didn’t notice any changes in my skin, if anything it felt drier and quite tight in the mornings. I would only recommend this serum to those with oily skin looking for a serum that feels nice. But that’s about it unfortunately!

First, about my skin: I have combination oily skin with a few dry areas and occasionally get breakouts around my chin. I don’t have noticeable wrinkles yet at 27, but I have a few crinkles around my eyes.

I know, at the age of 27 I am surprised too that this is the first time I have used a serum in my skincare routine. Usually I have used a facial oil but have realised that with my tendency for oily patches that an oil close a bit heavy for me to be using daily.

So using the Olay Regenerist Collagen Peptide 24h Serum has had a surprising effect (in a good way) on my skin. I would definitely say my skin feels more bouncy and smooth (especially when used alongside the moisturiser in the same collection).

The serum is very lightweight although the white colouring of the formula reminded me of some other bodily fluids…..

The packaging is mixed reviews for me. I like the fact that it’s a in a glass jar but the plastic pump lid that screws open is not my favourite to use. I do wonder if I’ll be able to get all the product out of the jar when it’s close to finished. This is the only thing holding me back from a full 5 stars for using again. (Aesthetic preference).

I will definitely still continue to use this product until it’s finished but I might look into other serums in the market to look at the functionality of their droppers etc.

Beautiful bottle. So beautiful, it took me about 5mins to figure out how to open it. Then I did, and I felt like an idiot. Shame on me. It’s a very fancy Doppler! The serum itself was nice from the first pump. No fragrance, no stingy irritating sensation. I only used 1 pump per night during the trial as I don’t usually use skincare with Niacinamide in it. I loved the lite creamy milky texture. Circular motions and it was rubbed in in no time. I think it was about day 3 when I noticed the texture of my skin improving. I usually had pimple-like bumps on my forehead, and by day 10 (today) they basically don’t exist! I’m very happy with that. I was also a little oily on the forehead at the time, and the niacinamide has helped balance that out. It’s great to not rub my head during the day and feel greasy. So far, my only downside was that it did make me quite dry. I am usually a little on the dry side, and it is a change of season, but with my previous skincare, I haven’t been “dry” in about a year. If I were to continue using this product, I would reduce it to maybe twice per week.

My skin is quite dry and this serum has absorbed quickly and left my skin feeling soft. The serum itself absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave any residue which I like. A little goes a long way so you don’t need a lot. The only downside I found is that the pump at times wasn’t working well or wouldn’t give as much. I would definitely purchase again after my trial set has finished. Thanks!

Firstly I had the issue of trying to work out on how to use this product (10 minutes later) I worked out that this is a dropper style applicator and not a pump. Once you open the lid you pump out the serum. I am not a fan of this applicator and find it hard to get the product in the dropper itself.

The serum seem nice to use on the face and is light weight. The only issue is, if you are prone to dryness (wear it can crack open around the nose) Or any open skin imperfections (sores/ acne) This serum can really sting or burn and openness on your face. It has no scent and using with the olay Micro sculpting cream can make your face hydrated during the day. Although I have not notice a huge difference in my fine lines, I do find it fine as a supermarket serum and for the price.

Thank you so much BR for the opportunity to trial this awesome serum and the matching moisturiser! I've been looking for a nice light, water-based serum to use in the morning to give a boost of moisture and this ticks all the boxes.

I've been using this after toner and before applying sunscreen in the morning. The bottle is very fancy with a sort of push button on the cap that squeezes out some of the serum from a dropper. I find that a whole push/pump is too much and half is the perfect amount for my face and neck. The serum is very light but not runny. It's easy to pat into my skin and absorbs within about 10 seconds. It's great that it's matte and dry to the touch once it's absorbed as I had been worried it would leave shine or sticky residue. It also means I don't have to flaff around waiting for this to dry before applying sunscreen.

So far this has stood up to the harsh winter mornings well, and I haven't felt the need to layer on another cream based moisturiser after this. I am quite surprised by how quickly it gets used though, in under 3 weeks a quarter of the bottle is gone already. In terms of value I think the moisturiser is better than the serum, but this one's really good if you want a light moisture boost that can dry quickly and be layered under another moisturiser.

Amazing product, I was lucky enough to trial this product with the moisturizer too. Such a light weight, quick drying product that went on so nicely. I really have enjoyed this serum since the first application. My skin feels amazing! I have never used a serum before, so wasnt sure what to expect, but I will continue to use this product.

I have never tried any collagen products before and I wish I had taken before and after photos because I definitely notice a difference, especially in my forehead lines. I really enjoy using the serum. It is a really nice consistency and feels really nice and light on my face and is super easy to use with the pump on the lid. It comes in a really nice bottle, which Olay always does well with its presentation. It is a little expensive but in saying that, it is collagen and I believe it does work so well worth the money in my opinion! It probably will last a month to a month and a half going by what I have used over the last two weeks so far, twice a day, so it really does go the distance. I would absolutely recommend to a friend, I already have, and I will definitely continue to use this!

Olay’s regenerist collagen peptide 24 serum is a concentrated serum with a light texture that hydrates the skin for 24 hours while smoothing the skin and improving its bounciness.

Olay says it instantly plumps, visibly firms and smooths fine lines with collagen peptide and niacinamide, which deeply penetrates into the epidermis layer of the skin.

The product comes in Olay’s tamper resistance pack and the serum is packaged in Olay’s typical serum bottle.

The bottle has a twist top with an eyedropper inside that collects product. I have used their bottles before and found they were ok, but this particular one seemed to collect less product, which meant I had to collect the product a few times during application.

I did, however, really like the red gradient on the bottle’s exterior. It looked classy and expensive.

The serum was lightweight and absorbed into the skin well. It looked to smooth lines during application, but once it melted into the skin, the effect was gone.

All in all a silky smooth serum in a classy bottle.
