Olay Power of Smoothness Gift Set: Super Serum, Niacinamide, Vitamin C with Collagen Peptide 30ml + Retinol 24 Night Cream Face Moisturiser for Women 50ml, Anti-Aging Skincare

I thought I would try this product as it was on offer and the serum that I had been buying from Olay was not. I am SO glad I tried it.Texture: The product itself is a thin cream which is applied using a little pipette applicator like Olay’s other serums. Howeveer, unlike some of the other (maybe thicker?) serums from Olay, it is really easily drawn up into the pipette and runs out of it much more easily too. It has a beautiful feel on the skin, and due to how thin it is a little bit goes a long way to cover a lot of your face. It leaves no unpleasant or greasy residue on skin but moisturises incredibly and is absorbed very quickly.Scent: This is a scented product, and smells divine. It smells sort of like someone has opened a bag of Skittles. The smell can be quite strong, but not overpowering, and isn’t noticeable once the product has absorbed or dried or whatever it does.Value for money: A little bit of this product goes a long way, but has a big impact. It is absolutely worth the money in my opinion and I will be repurchasing whenever I run out. It certainly seems to be lasting me a long time, which surprises me because the bottle is not that large.Effectiveness: I really noticed the difference not only in the skin on my face, but my hands too just from using them to massage it into my skin. I was surprised at first as I didn’t think there’d be that much of a noticeable difference, and thought that it wouldn’t leave my skin as soft without there being retinol in it. It’s light on skin and hasn’t irritated my sensitive skin like some products can. We are all unique though, and my experience of its effectiveness and impact may be vastly different to others as skin is such a unique part of each of us, and something that works for me might not impact someone else in the same way.This has become one of my absolute favourite products and I now use it instead of the Olay Retinol serum I was using. It makes my skin feel absolutely divine, and has lasted me much longer than the serum I used to buy, which is another bonus. I also feel like there will be much less wasted product, as it’s a runny enough product that I don’t think any will get stuck in the bottle in areas where it can’t be tipped out or drawn into the applicator.It is the perfect start to a skincare routine to apply before moisturisers or treatments, I can imagine it would be fabulous under make-up (I don’t wear make-up so can’t comment here) as it doesn’t leave skin remotely greasy or oily so would make a good base; and sometimes I just use it on it’s own if I don’t have the energy to do much more. Even on it’s own, it’s a great little product. I’m really glad I stumbled across it.

Wonderful serum. Very soothing, mildly hydrating and packed with active ingredients. Beautiful packaging, texture and scent. A joy to use. I like to keep it simple and this soothes my skin when I'm using actives like tretinoin.

I personally couldnt get away with it.... Didnt like the feel off it on my skin... however my friend loves the stuff... Its not greasy and seems to soak straight ... She thinks its great and it leaves her face nice and soft and says its a really good moisturiser... Its not heavy on the skin its nice and light .. I couldnt really tell if there was a smell to it or not... I gave 4 stars as i'm going on what my friend says about it.

I love this it makes my skin firmer and softer. It is great value for money . And rids fine lines . It resolves into the skin perfectly. It no makes my appearance glow. It is not sticky at all and is perfect for my skin .

A lovely smooth lotion. Bought to tackle dry skin patches on my face. Goes on well & forms a second skin...dry patches gone with repeated use...nice product. Easy to apply with dropper.

Lovely feeling on my skin and sinks in quickly without leaving greasy tackiness. As I have used this and the contents have down in the bottle it is harder to get the lotion into the dropper. Have ended up not using it and just tipping bottle to get contents out. You then have to wait for the lotion to appear at top of bottle - not good. They need to rethink the design of this bottle as there is quite a bit of the lotion left that the dropper cannot get. That's why it only gets 3 stars.

Buy this serum! It’s magic in a bottle, my skin is smooth, glowing it’s so effective and hydrating it’s a light serum but thick enough to know it’s on there to do a job! Top banana, take my money!

Great serum. Smells great and makes my skin very hydrated.
