A dermatologist was featured on my local news this morning talking about affordable anti aging skin care, and one of the product lines she recommended was Oil of Olay Regenerist. This line contains cleansers, day and night moisturizers, anti eye wrinkle cream, exfoliating scrubs, microdermabrasion kits and more, all with the purpose of reducing wrinkles and making the skin appear younger. I’ve tried a few of the products in the Regenerist line, so I thought I’d share my results with you.
The Oil of Olay Regenerist Night Recovery Moisturizing Treatment contains an amino-peptide complex to regenerate skin cells and promises the look of a mini-lift in the morning. I found that this night cream is better suited for someone with normal or combination skin, because I have very dry skin and it did not provide the level of moisture I need at night.
I also used the Regenerist Touch of Sun moisturizer during the day and was very pleased with my results. What I like best about it is that it contains UVA/UVB sunscreen (spf 15) and sunless tanner, so I can have a natural-looking sun-kissed glow without the skin damage and eye wrinkles that come with excessive sun exposure. Regenerist Touch of Sun could have provided more moisture, but its lightweight, non-greasy formula worked great under makeup.
My favorite product from this line is the Regenerist Eye Lifting Serum. This Olay eye wrinkle cream contains antioxidants vitamin E and green tea, which reduce eye puffiness and inflammation and fight the free radicals that cause eye wrinkles, as well as the amino-peptides that are unique to the Regenerist product line. Dab a little around the eyes in the morning and evening after washing your face, and you should see visible firming and lifting in the eye area.
Certain Oil of Olay Regenerist products may be better suited for different skin types; but overall, I believe that the Regenerist line is effective and affordable, and I recommend trying the Regenerist eye wrinkle cream for younger-looking eyes.
