Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream (NEW March 2013 Formula)

Shame on Olay for putting horrible, irritating synthetic perfumes in its products in this day and age! I didn't realize when I bought it, but this has the most disgusting fake floral scent, like the kind my grandmother wore in the 1970s. The fragrance free version isn't available where I live or I would try it (while I could stand to have this on my face it did seem very moisturizing, but the odor was so penetrating I had to wash it off and gave away the bottle -- also very irritating as this is not cheap for a drugstore brand). Also, the packaging is terrible -- who wants to stick their hands into a pot every use? Unhygienic and exposes it to air. At this price point I would expect much, much better in both packaging and formula.

Active Hydrating Cream - Original

This is a very no frills, basic moisturizer, that will provide light hydration, without making skin greasy. In my case, my reactive skin tends to do better with basic formulas like this. I slather this on at night, and use "Olay Complete SPF15 Sensitive" during the daytime. My skin is combination oily, but during the winter my skin is a lot drier, so I must moisturize every night, and this helps alleviate dry patches. If a moisturizer is too rich, I usually wake up with a shiny face, but this doesn't cause that. I have used this during the day occasionally, and it makes a good base for makeup, because it sinks in nicely. This is fragranced with a soft rose scent (which I think smells nice), but I wanted to mention that for those sensitive to fragrance. I paid $6 for it, so it's very reasonably priced. I would probably repurchase!

Complete All Day Moisturizer SPF 15 - Sensitive

My skin is somewhat sensitive, and definitely does not do well with most sunscreens. However, Olay Sensitive does not irritate or break my skin out at all! Also, this moisturizer makes a great base for makeup, and does not make my skin more oily throughout the day, like some SPF lotions do. This also provides enough moisture for me, during the winter when I'm drier, so it's user friendly year round. The one con, is that SPF15 is on the low side, but I don't spend much time out in the sun, even during summer. I paid $8 for a 4 oz. bottle at my local Dollar General, so I think it's reasonably priced for the amount. Will repurchase!
