[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm always amazed at the quality and benifits of Olay products! The creams and serums pack such an incredible punch without costing a small fortune.
The Regenerist Vitamin C + Peptide 24 Serum is everything I need in a summertime (winter too!) skincare routine!
Fitting with a Vit C serum, the bottle is a bright and brilliant gold color. Like the other Olay Serums, it has an eye dropper dispenser which it very easy to use and really helps me not pour too much or waste product. The scent is amazing! It is super fresh with hints of fruit. If I was reading that and saw "fruit" I would be turned right off, but this isn't an unnatural scent at all. It really is light and wonderful. The serum itself is a clear and somewhat thin formula (5/10 thickness) that glides over the skin very well, absorbs in a good time (not too quick, not forever either) and leaves my skin feeling SO soft, healthy and hydrated! I love it because there is no tackiness or stickiness involved and this doesn't pill up under a good moisturizer. This contains only good, high quality ingredients. My skin is perfectly primed, and feels incredible.
PinchMe sent me this free sample. That being said, I will say that I don't care if a product was given to me free or I paid for it myself. As a skincare junkie, I feel it is my duty to post my 100% honest and true opinions on any product I review. So, for 4 weeks, I have used this serum as part of my routine and I'm very pleased!
I'm 38. For years, I was a sun worshiper. Tanning beds, laying outside every day, you name it. Now, I'm playing catch-up for all the damage I have done. I will note here that if you are using this product in the summer, as I am, it is imperative you use a good SPF. This contains AHA and that can cause you to get some nasty sun damage. Always remember to wear your SPF and limit sun exposure.
Immediately after I started using this, my skin was feeling smoother and more hydrated. It wasn't until week 2 that I started to notice an all over brightening of my skin. Some of my dark spots started to fade a bit. My skin started to brighten up all together. And overall, the hydration was amazing! My skin felt firm and tight. Now, well into week 4, those dark spots have almost disappeared where I only find the pathetic remnants of them because I know where to look. My skin is soft, supple and really glowing and healthy! I truly love this serum!
Olay Regenerist Vitamin C + Peptide 24 Serum is a product that I definitely will continue to use! I live how it makes my skin look and feel and it is an absolute joy to have in my routine! If you need a time machine for dark spots, this is it!
