I've got to say i'm really glad i bought this product. It does not give you that greasy feeling and it has helped in the texture and clarity of my skin. I have sensitive skin too and it does not give me any problems like redness or irritation. And the good thing is that it does not clog pores and create new pimples. I've been using it day and night, and it really hydrates the skin well enough. Thumbs up~! I don't regret buying this.

*Gave me pimples. will not use it again

holy grail cream! this BH moisturizer has made my face smooth and nearly acne free. no peelies! and blackheads on my nose are visibly reduced. I generally don't like creams in jars but have gotten used to this one. combine w/ cleanser from same product line. both are excellent. I have oily, acne prone, sensitive skin and have tried a lot of moisturizers trying to find the right balance of moisture and acne prevention and this is absolutely the best. and cheap! love it!

Thanks to all the great reviews I've been using this cream since last winter. It stopped my acne, until recently. It does make my forehead shiny, and I have to mix it with another moisturizer. I don't see myself buying this again. I need something better, that keeps on working.

I've tried many moisturizers, and hands down this is the best one I've used so far. I have very sensitive skin, so I have to be very careful what I use on my face. Absoutely anything will cause me to breakout, but not this stuff. It has actually helped keep my face extremely clear, and most importantly moisturized. I have combination skin, more dry in the cheeks, oily t-zone, and this cream actually balances the different areas of my face. Ive been using it now for about 3 weeks, and i have not one complaint. It has actually been helping with my smile lines, which is a plus!!

Great product! Although it doesn't have any of the "new" bells and whistles the Regenerist or Pro-X lines have, I LOVE it anyway! For me, the Beta-Hydroxy Complex (salicylic acid) in the product really exfoliates nicely and gives my skin a super smooth, even texure. I wish it came with SPF, but since I use it only at night that's not an issue. I buy about 4-5 jars a year and hope they don't discontinue this great BHA product!

YES! YES! YES! I love this product! I got it because it was the cheapest moisturizer out of all the other Olay products on the shelves at Target. I love the consistency, and I love how it feels after you apply it to your face. It's NOT GREASY. It actually dries within a minute or two after application, but it leaves your face feeling like normal healthy skin (not dry at all, but not wet, just NORMAL, feels like healthy skin). It's hard to find a balance between dry and greasy when it comes to moisturizing products, but this product is the best when it comes to that. I cannot wait to try other Olay products (the more pricier ones). If I fell in love with this cheap one, I can't imagine how much I would love the more expensive ones. BTW, I apply this everyday before makeup, and again before I go to sleep after I've cleansed my face. I wake up in the morning with perfectly healthy skin. Wish this had a pump, but it would be hard to pump out product with this consistency.

And OH YES, weird to say but it helped clear my pink/red blemishes away. My mom use to complain about red marks on my face (not pimples) but after a week of using this product daily, my blemishes slowly disappeared. I LOVE I LOVE!! Running out, gotta get some more tomorrow!

I always come back to this moisturizer. No matter what I try nothing else seems to keep my skin as hydrated. No breakouts...this stuff is awesome!

I like this moisturizer. It has a nice consistency, not too thick and not too runny, and goes on smooth. It blends in nicely and works great for my skin. I feel like my skin is moisturized but not too oily or greasy, which is great because I tend to have skin that's oily in some spots and dry in others. I found this moisturizer helps balance that pretty well. As far as its wrinkle-reducing qualities, I can't really attest to that so much because I don't really have wrinkles yet. It smells like something your grandma would use, but it's not like it's a bad smell I guess. I hadn't really thought of it until I saw that someone else had commented on it, but the packaging is a little unsanitary. It comes in a little pot so that you have to dip your finger in to get it out. But I put it on after showering so I usually trust that my fingers are clean. Anyway, pretty nice moisturizer, especially considering it didn't cost that much.

Why is it we think the price equals quality? So not true in the case of this little gem here! I picked this up after reading the reviews here and this little pottle best never be made obsolete! It cleared my blemishes overnight in my oily t zone, it soothed my red cheeks, reduced wrinkles around my eyes and the wrinkles on the chest area. I love it. the smell reminds me of my nana's rose petal scented cream from when I was little and so it is such a lovely treat to put on under my sunscreen and last thing at night - we don't have the separate night cream in NZ.

If you have a ph neutral cleanser you can put it straight on however if not, wait for half an hour after cleansing for your skin to return to ph neutral to allow the beta hydroxy acids to do their work properly then wait another half an hour before applying sunscreen or makeup to let it work its magic.

A fantastic cream at a fantastic price.

This product is amazing! A few months back when my skin flared up as a result of another product, I went into panic mode and started spending a boatload of $$ on the high end products to find that perfect cure/treatment for it. This actually made things worse and my skin felt abused by all that different ingredients in different products. I was at my wits' end as nothing seemed to work. Then I came across reviews for this product and thought what do I have to loose? Besides, compared to my other products, this was mere child's play in terms of cost.

Also did some read ups on BHA beforehand and it sounded pretty promising. I applied it at night first time around and when I woke up, I was pretty amazed that my pimples seemed to have subsided somewhat. My skin felt soft to the touch for the first time in months! Though I was a bit oil slicked in the morning but that was a little price to pay for the goodness this product was doing to my skin. I don't know how good this product is in smoothing wrinkles out, perclaimed, coz it's only been 2months but now my skin is actually supple and smooth to the touch. Pimples are few and few in between and even so they dry up pretty quickly and nothing bulbous anymore. also there is this glow that i've never seen happen with the rest of my other products which are purported to do that. I only use it at night as I find it a bit too heavy for my tropical weather during the day. As such, my cyclical skin renewal is slower though normally I'll notice my skin will start it's gentle shedding process after 4-5nights of use and then takes another 2-3 days to fully shed all the dead skin. Then my skin will look bright and fresh for the next 1halfweek before the whole cycle repeats itself. Pretty much an ace product in my books!

This is a very light moisturizer. It is great for acne prone skin. So far, the only one that hasn't broken me out. Something heavier with the Beta Hydroxy Complex would be nice for winter.

This product is awesome and hands down something I always keep in stock. The aloe in it makes my skin super soft without overmoisturizing, esp when I used to have acne prone skin and breakouts. Now that my skin tends to be drier, esp in the winter months and this doesn't seem to moisturize enough. But I combine it with a drop of joboba oil in my hand before application and it works great. It is perfect in the summer when I'm more prone to breakouts. However, it doesn't have any SPF. The age defying moisterizer in the bottle with SPF 15 doesn't work the same or feel the same as the one in the jar without the SPF.

Great moisturizer and it greatly reduced my acne during my period. My skin feels smoother and brighter. But it doesn't have any SPF, luckily my primer and foundation does. The price is great compared to HE brands.

This product is a staple in my skin care regimen. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this moisture and often recommend it to my friends and rave about the results.

The moisture is emollient but not heavy. The scent is light and clean and it keeps my skin clear, supple and dewy. I especially love to use this at night.

Nothing but positive things for me to say about this product. The price is is fair, the product exceeds my expectation and I wouldnt trade up for anything. A little goes a long way and as a person with problem skin with oily complexion finding the right moisturizer is often hard for many reasons.Those are non issues for me now that I use this. It's so good that I often buy two bottles when I restock.

After bouncing around with different face creams for years (both drug store and department store products), I bought this several months ago after reading the positive reviews on MUA. I found it to be light textured, absorbed quickly into my skin and did not break me out. After finishing two containers, I did not notice any drastic changes with my skin and got bored. I found it to be just a nice gentle basic moisturizer. So I decided to try some other face creams (aveeno, dove, olay total effects) and they all seemed to break me out. The Dove Deep Moisture being the worst, making me break out in cystic acne which is a problem I never had previously. The acne got pretty bad that I totally stopped applying anything to my face besides Avene thermal water and spot treated w/ tea tree oil. After a couple of weeks the acne is slowly getting better and I felt I should start using a moisturizer again and rebought this. I'm glad I did! It didn't make my remaining acne flare up and just made my skin soft, supple and hydrated. It doesn't block my pores either. I think it's even helping calm the acne down (maybe the salicylic acid it contains?). In anycase, this is my HG moisturizer from now on since I know my skin is happy with it. $16 CDN for just a simple basic moisturizer sounds a little extreme but its worth it if its going to keep my skin nice & clear.

This cream can be used on my face unlike my la mer cream that leaves me extremely greasy so i have just resorted to using that one as a body cream, but this one i use as a face cream at night and i swear my skin tone looks completely even. I own a ton of face products from all kinds of brands, chanel, bobbi brown, clinique, dr.brandt, clarins, the list goes on and on, but for half or maybe even a third of a price i pay for those this one comes out on top for nice lightweight face cream. I agree this is probably best for oilier skinned people, bc i don't get greasy from this so if i don't get greasy it wouldn't be an effective moisturizer for drier skin types. Highly recommend and don't expect instant results, you will see them though or atleast i have after a period of time from consistent usage.

I have been using this BH cream at night only for about 2 months now, and it does seem to be helping with evening out skin appearance. Really wish it came in a tube or a pump.

i've been using this for about 4 months and will always continue too. i really do see an improvement in my skin, even thought i'm only 24. it's much more even toned, prevented ALL pimples, even the monthly ones that we all get~ i was @ macys the other day and cashier commented on how nice my skin was (i wasnt wearing any makeup at all) and kept asking me what i used and told her Olay Age Defy. she said after work shes going to get it..haha..

I like this moisturizer a lot. I use it in the morning under my primer and foundation and at night before bedtime. It doesn't cause any breakouts, which is great. The smell is really good and I just love the consistency--not think, but not too watery. I don't like how the packaging is though. Kind of unsanitary and although it doesn't make my skin breakout, it does make my face look really oily/shiny in the morning when I wake up.
