Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting Cream

Here is the last in my batch of Olay products tested and ready for review, Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream.This  formula is much more richer and emollient than the serum as it is a cream version. What this cream does is help fight the loss of moisture to your skin, firm and tone sag prone areas especially near the jaw line while smoothing the surface and restoring elasticity. This formula contains the highest concentration of Regenerist exclusive amino-peptide complex as well as an Olay exclusive intracellular fortifier made up of hyaluronic acid. My results after using this 1.7 ounce cream for about three weeks now, which by the way has plenty more product left to go past a full month, are that the moisture in my skin feels restored more than the other versions in this line. This is probably due to the fact of it's ultra rich luxurious formula and while the direction labels suggest you use this morning and night I find this too rich and emollient for day time wear as it leaves too much product on my skin for me to apply foundation properly. It might be a different  case on some skin types which may be bone dry allowing better absorption and foundation application. And of course if you don't wear any foundation then there is no problem with that aspect of it all. I also found that once you use a small amount you shouldn't attempt to try to layer some more cream on as it will flake so just a dab will do. It leaves a nice dewy finish on your skin but not oily or sticky if you apply the right amount and the scent is very fresh and clean. I love love love how thick and rich it feels going on and how it hydrates your skin perfectly making it the right moisturizer for harsh winter weather.  I would also say this is more appropriate for super dry skin than the serum in this line. I already use a full range of Olay products and I notice how each different cream helps maintain the firmness, plumpness and hydration in my skin. This is one that I will be using only during the night time because it interferes with my foundation which I generally prefer a more matte base on my skin. It's an amazing moisturizer that beat out other fancy department stores brands in surveys from women and the price point is more affordable for everyone's budget. Got really dry skin and on a budget? This is a sure bet, try it for yourselves and feel free to leave me comments on what you think about this cream. Stay beautiful! XOXO
