I love the accompanying Active Hydrating cream for the daytime, but unfortunately, the Intensive Nourishing Night cream just doesn't do it for me. This moisturizer is very intense and I've found that it leads to extra oil in my already-large pores. It's alright if I only apply it to the driest areas of my face, but applying it all over clogs my pores and gives me pimples. I really wanted to like it, but it's just not great.

I love love love this cream. For a good year I was using this day and night. It calmed my acne prone skin, made it soft and helped clear it and keep my skin balanced. It smells great, isn't greasy and lasts a while with 60mls. I cannot live without it summer and especially winter. Have bought three jars already and will keep purchasing!

I think this product is definitely my holy grail product for these freaking dry winter nights. it moisturizes my face without it being extremely greasy. i love it so much! and it's very affordable, too. i definitely recommend this to someone who's on a budget or anyone who don't want to splurge a lot on a night cream from sephora or something. ;)

Pros:
-it's very light and a little goes a long way, I just need a few dabs to cover my entire face.
-the smell is nice and creamy and it doesn't sting my eyes which sometimes happens with AHA night products.
-even though I don't always use SPF the next day after using, my skin doesn't become blochy and red, to me this means it's pretty sensitive
-skins looks more even and calmer with consistant use
-does not cause breakouts
Cons:
-ummmm!!!??

I just finished my first tub, which took four months of nightly use. I repurchased today, which prompted me to write my first review in quite a while.
My skin is easily irritated and acne prone. It's mostly combo to oily, but easily gets dry and flaky without regular exfoliation. Manual exfoliants weren't cutting it. I decided to stop them, and try this at night for BHA, and Alpha Hydroxy cream during the day for AHA.
Never in my adult life has my skin been more clear. No patches of dryness at all, and a definite curb in breakouts.
The texture is a light to medium cream that sinks in fairly quickly. Best suited for skin types that do not need a lot of moisture.
Light, pleasant fragrance that fades within 5 min.

I needed a night cream because my face was getting so dry in the winter months and I found this one at my local grocery store. I used it for a few days and noticed that I was breaking out so I stopped using it. Eventually I figured out that it wasn't the cream that was breaking me out, it was something else. So I started using it again a few weeks ago and I'm really glad I didn't trash it! It goes on really smooth, doesn't make my face too oily and my face looks great in the morning. I don't mind the jar that it in either. I just dip my finger in and put a little on my face. The only thing I don't like is that it's a little sticky when I put it on my face for about 15 mintes or so. After that it sinks in all the way and I have no problems.

I bought this moisturizer because I wanted a heavier moisturizer for night that treated wrinkles without clogging my pores. And for the mos part it, this delivered. This does a fine job of moisturizing, but I did feel that sometimes it wasn't moisturizing enough for my dry areas and a little too oily for my oily areas. I know that sounds crazy, but I'd wake up with a pretty oily forehead and tight cheeks.
I've never been fond of the Olay scent, but it's not terrible. I can't quesite speak to it's anti-wrikles capabilities because I'm using this more as a preventive measure. This wasn't bad, but it didn't wow me either. Overall, just an OK moisturizer.

I guess this is one of those "love it or hate it" sort of night creams and I am head over heels in love with this stuff! I bought it because I needed a night cream since I tend to get patches of dry skin on my chin and I wanted to start preventing wrinkles that are slowly starting to appear. The price is what eventually sold me (I think it was around $11 at the local drugstore) and within days not only was my skin not flaky, my adult acne started clearing up as well! It's been 2 weeks and my skin is smooth without a blemish in sight. Whether or not it fights wrinkles has yet to be seen (I'm only 30) but overall I see an improvement in my skin and for the price, you just can't beat it.

I have combination skin that is very prone to acne and this stuff made me break out. I purchased it because it had such stellar reviews but I guess it just isn't for me. I was disappointed in the packaging and thought it looked a bit cheap considering I paid $17.99 for it. The container is plastic and the label looks out dated. I also wish it came with a spatula or something to scoop the cream out with. The smell didn't bother me too much but it wasn't the best. It came on sticky and remained so after some time (30+ mins). I am now using it as a hand cream before I go to sleep so I don't waste it and it's giving me great results (my hands are much softer).

This is one of the worst night creams I've ever tried. I was so surprised to see all those positive reviews that I had to double-check the name on my jar to make sure I was reviewing the same thing. Good to know it works for some people, though (I guess >.>). I'm halfway done with the jar and I can't stand it anymore. I have mixed skin, but it's mostly dry and dehydrated. A few points about this moisturizer:
---
1- Nice texture. It doesn't leave my skin too greasy.
2- But it's so lightweight that it actually doesn't moisturize at all. I can already see dry spots 5 minutes after application and my skin doesn't feel moisturized/hydrated. This is not thick enough for a night cream (not for me, at least).
3- It leaves the skin sticky after application. I applied it maybe 40-50 minutes ago, and it's still sticky!
4- I don't really like the scent, but whatever, I've smelled worse in terms of night creams.
5- Not sure it does anything to defy my age or improve texture, but I'll give it some more time...
---
There. I'll finish the jar because I hate throwing unused product away, but I won't re-purchase. continued >>

Looked wonderful on paper, on my skin it translated to red blotches and a mess.Very light weight and non greasy though.

I've been using this product for 2 weeks now and I love it. I noticed a considerable improvement in my skin since Ive been using it - improved softness and texture. Not too oily and great value for money. I was previously using Clarins Multi-Active night cream but I prefer this and will continue buying it.

I have very sensitive, Rosacea skin. This does not bother my face at all. No burning or itching.
Smells great, too.

I'm just shocked that this is so cheap and it works so well for my skin! I have normal/ combo skin that breaks out. I use retin-a .05% regularly, along with Caudalie's purifying concentrate, and Kate Sommerville's EradiKate. I was getting breakouts along with really dry skin (I've used my retin-a for years now). And as soon as I started using this my skin strangely cleared up and was balanced. I wake up now and my skin is all glowy XD I guess my skin breaks out when it's dehydrated? Super weird lol
I love that this sinks in without being greasy. I even use it during the day. It's only been a week but this is total HG material :) I just wish it came with a spatula if it HAS to be in a jar.. I've been using a q-tip b/c I don't have a spatula to scoop it out (bacteria for me is a huge no-no)
UPDATE: On my 3rd jar, still loving this stuff :)

Purchased this as the price was cheap and Olay seems to be a pretty decent brand. Had to idea what one to pick. I have sensitive skin so didn't want to purchase anything too fancy. I have no problem with this...goes on smoothly, no breakouts and my face does seem rested/glowing in the morning. A nice, decent, basic night cream, imo.

I have combo skin, some acne scarring, Irish/scandanavian skin.
I used this for a few weeks, about 6, before I forgot my jar in a hotel room while traveling. I got it originally for 9.44, but this time around got it for 9.99. I don't like jars, but oh well, so many products come in them now it's hard not to have any on my counter.
It does have fragrance, which my skin is usually sensitive to, but it is not bothered by this kind at all.
It sinks in, is very moisturizing but not oily, and sometimes I even use it during the day-my make make up goes over it just fine. I have not had any breakouts with this.
My only concern is that at 27, I want something to prevent wrinkles and lines, and I am not sure if this will do that. I might have to get something different when this jar runs out.

Finally a night cream that works for me. Most night creams I have used left me with super shiny, greasy skin when I woke up in the morning. This night cream leaves no grease, no shine, just fabulous skin also after using this for a few weeks, my lines are definitely reduced, you can barely see any lines in face anymore! I'll be buying more.
