Olay Cleanse Refresh & Glow Cleansing Toner, All Skin Types, 200 ml

Product Information

This Olay body wash uses sugar to gently massage away dead skin cells, providing a light exfoliation that helps to reveal radiant skin. Dimethicone forms a thin, invisible film on the surface of the skin that helps to disguise lines and wrinkles, while humectants bind moisture on the skin. The extra hydration is the extra volume, which effectively plumps out the skin and makes lines and wrinkles less noticeable.

In general, both toners and astringents are designed to manage key issues at the skin surface, such as oiliness and irritation,” Dr. Ava Shamban, a board-certified dermatologist, tells Byrdie. Astringents are usually alcohol-based, which can help dry up excess oil but also irritate the skin. Because they’re typically water-based, toners tend to be less harsh and include hydrating ingredients like rose water, flower essence, or hyaluronic acid.One ingredient that Olay loves to include in their formulations is niacinamide. Niacinamide is the amide form of vitamin B3 (niacin) that provides many benefits to the skin. Bottom Line: Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream combines dimethicone with humectants to plump skin and disguise signs of aging, while niacinamide and a peptide provide benefits over time. We want to love this anti-aging night cream because it combines some of the best skincare ingredients into one product: niacinamide, a peptide, and anti-aging superstar retinol.

This oil-free anti-aging facial moisturizer has the same key ingredients as many of the other Olay moisturizers we’ve discussed. Those ingredients include glycerin, niacinamide, dimethicone, panthenol, and vitamins C and E. Sound familiar? Bottom Line: A facial moisturizer for all skin types that combines the “collagen peptide” with niacinamide and hydrating ingredients. Beneficial ingredients like niacinamide, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4, and sodium hyaluronate used throughout collection As for the cream, i feel that it is a very good moisturizer. I can see my face has less fine lines now, especially on my forehead and nose. I also apply the cream under my eyes to fight fine lines there, but it does not show any results yet. I can see my pores less visible now. I have pimple scars and this cream helps in lightening the scars. I feel my skin is softer and smoother. Niacinamide is also an antioxidant that helps the skin combat free radicals, the unstable molecules that contribute to the formation of premature wrinkles and fine lines on the skin.A good place to start when selecting your toner is determining your skin type. Common skin types include: If you’re looking for a skin care product that will give your skin a deep-down cleaning that’s more effective than soap and water, you may want to consider a toning product, such as the Olay Oil Minimizing Skin Toner. This Olay toner is one of many skin care and beauty supplies sold by the Olay Company, which was founded by Graham Wulf in 1949. In addition to this Olay toner, other skin care products offered in the company’s collection include night creams, body care items, cleansers, moisturizers, and products that are specially formulated to fight acne and the signs of aging. The Oil Minimizing Skin Toner is designed for those with oily, acne-prone skin, and is thought to help reduce breakouts of unsightly acne. This Olay toner is currently available throughout the U.S. What we put on our bodies is just as important as what we put in them. Since skincare products are absorbed down to the cellular level, so there really is no difference.

Alcohol isn’t bad in all toners, but if you have sensitive skin, steer clear, as it can be way too harsh and drying. Look for formulas made with nourishing, balancing, and calming ingredients like aloe vera, cucumber, and rosewater. The Thayers Witch Hazel Facial Toner contains all three and comes highly recommended by dermatologists (it's also affordable and available at your nearest drugstore). There are also a variety of rosewater sprays on the market.

Bottom Line: Olay Regenerist Whip Face Moisturizer is an ultra-lightweight face moisturizer with a whipped texture that creates a smooth, matte finish while also moisturizing and providing a broad spectrum SPF 25 protection. When it comes to your daily skin care routine, you probably have your main steps down: cleanser, serum, moisturizer, and SPF. What you may be missing out on, though, is an extra cleansing, pH-balancing toner. For example, one review says, “I finally found a product that works and it didn’t cost a small fortune! Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream is the best product I ever tried. I’m 60 and I have those horrid marionette lines below my nose and around my mouth. After about one week I noticed that they were not as noticeable and now, one month later they’re barely there.”Based on the formula, you’ll likely notice a temporary plumping with the cream thanks to the combination of the silicone dimethicone with plenty of humectants (glycerin, panthenol, sodium hyaluronate, etc.). Olay Foaming Face Wash is designed for those who have sensitive skin but need a facial cleanser that provides them with a deep-down clean. This cleanser is part of the Olay skin care collection of products, which range from anti-aging products to cosmetics that are marketed by Olay's parent company, Proctor and Gamble. Olay Foaming Face Wash contains none of the ingredients that typically irritate sensitive or acne-prone skin, such as harsh soaps and fragrances, though it is still possible to experience an allergic reaction when using this product. But if you have been looking for a dermatologist-tested facial cleanser for your sensitive skin care kit, then this product may be a good choice. If you are under the care of a dermatologist, asking a professional opinion about whether the ingredients in Olay Foaming Face Wash are appropriate for your skin situation, will help you make a better-informed decision about this product and possible alternatives. Once you’ve figured this out, you can start narrowing down exactly what your skin needs and what to look for in formulas. Dry skin With its rich and creamy lather, this Olay body wash is ideal for those with normal to dry skin. The rich texture is created by a high concentration of petrolatum (aka Vaseline) in this body wash.
