This serum really works! - Review written on May 05, 2008

I had originally been sent a sample of this serum through the mail. I used it one night without thinking it would do much-- I was wrong. I am 23 and I am starting to notice my skin look a little dry, not quite as tight, and just not what it used to. This made my skin feel so soft and smooth and tight in the morning. I will definitely continue to use this--hopefully this will prevent my aging as I go into my late 20s and 30s. I'm not sure how this works for older ladies-- hopefully you can read the other reviews for that. This is pretty reasonably priced and it lasts a good time for me.

I had high hopes for this product, but I have to be honest and say that I cannot notice any difference in the way my skin looks in the 2 weeks I have been using it. People tell me I have "good skin" to begin with, however I do have lines around my eyes and on my forehead. The only positive difference that I have noticed is that my normally dry skin is less dry. The worst thing is that this product has actually caused me to break out! I can't remember when, if ever, I had pimples on my cheeks. I am going to have to stop using this and continue my search for a good moisturizer. Oh well.

I am 43...and I have to admit that I have never tried all the skin care products out there. I guess I was never 'into' thinking about my appearence much to consider I needed to take any time to care for it. I rarely wear make-up either, but only now have decided that maybe it's time to do something with the lines, wrinkles dullness in my complextion.
I myself have normal skin type. No oily spots or drying in certain places....but as I said...my skins looked dull. I bought this based on reviews, as well as other products in the 'Regenerist' line and I have to tell you...not only do I love the way it feels after using it...but love the glow it gives my skin. The pink glow you ladies have been talking about is cell regeneration I believe. If you read on the back of this bottle it says it doubles skins surface cells. I believe this is why the skin has a pink appearence after using it. I think I look younger already since using it..or at least well rested and refreshed with a healthier glow to my skin that I have not had in a very long time. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to give their skin a pep! I will continue to buy this product as well as their others in this line.

By the way...this is my husbands account...:-) Didn't want you to think a man wrote this.

I have tried several different brands and kinds of face creams that are supposed to help eliminate wrinkles, but Olay's Regenerist has done the best job so far. Additionally, it feels good on one's face, not sticky, which is very important for the tropical climate in which I live (Dominican Republic).

After one month of daily use, here is my verdict: This stuff works. It's not magic, it's not a miracle, it doesn't transform every wrinkle and age spot. But it makes your skin look BETTER than before, which is all we can really hope for, isn't it?

I've noticed a somewhat dramatic change in the fine lines around my eyes (no, I don't use a separate eye cream). They are smoother and much less noticeable. The few age spots I've developed seem to be lighter. Overall, looking at my face in the mirror now, I sometimes have to do a double-take because my skin looks so much better and brighter. The permanent dark circles under my eyes are even lighter.

I have acne prone skin and I was nervous about using a new moisturizer, but quickly found that my skin actually CLEARED UP while using this product. Likely, it was due to my regimented focus on skin care in general, but this did NOT contribute to any breakouts at all.

This is one product I can see myself using for a very long time.

I'm skeptical about skin care products because I never see a difference, but I tried the Regenerist line this week and I literally saw results OVERNIGHT! I used the serum last night and today the lines on my forehead have already all but disappeared. My skin is soft, non-oily, and my pores even seem smaller. Awesome product!

Regenerist-Olay Daily Regenerating Serum, 3.4oz (Bonus Size)
I am a 40 year old mother of 3, and I've been using this product since receiving a free sample in the mail when the product was introduced several years ago. I have been using it faithfully 2x per day ever since... and I have NO wrinkles.... I've been taking my 13 year old son to the same restaurant each week for several months, and on my last visit the hostess said, "I've been meaning to ask you, is he your brother or your son. You look so young." I've been using regular Oil of Olay or Generic version of it for as long as I can remember - it's the only sunscreen I can use on my face without an allergic reaction. I think my nice complexion is attributable to my daily regimen, including these Olay products. They're wonderful!!

I bought this because Consumer Reports rated it highly. I use it along with the day moisturizer/night moisturizer as Oil of Olay recommends (I called Oil of Olay for this information.) I can't say that I look younger, but I'm still using it.

I live in a very dry area and this is the only product which I can put on in the morning and never need to re-apply to make my skin supple. With that said, I was disappointed when I found out that its health hazard level is 6 out of 10.

I HAVE VERY DRY, SENSITIVE SKIN, AND TRIED THIS PRODUCT SINCE ALL THE OTHERS DID NOT WORK. THIS REGENERATING SERUM HAS GIVEN ME THE NORMAL
SKIN I LONGED FOR, AND IN A MATTER OF DAYS. I USED TO USE THE COMPLETE
MOISTURE LOTION WITH UV PROTECTION ATER THE SERUM, BUT AFTER CONTINUAL USE, IT SEEMED TO IRRITATE MY SKIN. I WENT SOLO WITH THE SERUM ONLY, UNTIL SUMMER WHEN I NEEDED SPF20 FOR A DAY OUT. OUT OF NECESSITY, I USED THE SAME CREAM USED ON CHILD ON ME AND FOUND IT TO WORK VERY WELL WITH THE OLAY SERUM. THIS BABY MAGIC IS SUN, WIND, PABA, AND FRAGRANCE FREE.

I am 39 years old and have very sensitive skin, and because of that I had been using fragrance-free products by Clinique. I always thought I looked pretty young until I saw a picture of myself at 29. My skin was so much better looking! After doing some research I decided to give this a try based upon the favorable reviews, low cost and the fact that it's fragrance free. (Perfumed lotions make me sneeze).

After one use, I noticed a few things. My skin did tingle slightly for a couple of hours, but it wasn't painful; just mildly annoying. But there was no rash or irritation. My cheeks looked a bit red, however it appeared more like a natural tint. The second thing I noticed is that my skin almost immediately looked better! I know that sounds crazy. I also didn't need to put on any blush because of the tint I mentioned. As the day wore on, the tingling went away. (I also started using Neutrogena Light Night Cream for a moisturizer- it's fragrance-free, and doesn't have sunscreen which I don't need every day.)

I applied it the next morning again and noticed the same things. I decided to try it every other day and have to say I REALLY notice a difference! My skin looks almost as good as my pic from ten years ago.

I think the minor discomfort I mentioned is due to my sensitivity to most products, but because I am so pleased with the results I'm sticking with it.

Update: After using this for a week I no longer have any sensitivity and my skin is incredibly soft and luminous! I would change this to five stars but I am unable to edit that portion.

THIS MAY BE THE BEST OF ALL THE WONDERFUL REGENERIST PRODUCTS; IT SEEMS TO CHANGE THE TEXTURE OF YOUR SKIN WITH THE FIRST USE. MY OLAY REGEME IS GETTING A BIT EXTENSIVE, BUT I DON'T WANT TO GIVE ANY ONE OF THEM UP, MAYBE THIS SERUM MOST OF ALL.

Have been using this for over a year and really notice a difference, particularly around my eyes. I use a small pea-size dab on my eyes, around my mouth, forehead, and then rub the rest on my cheeks. For the dry and cold winters, I use this, in combination with Gold Bond Ultimate lotion. The Gold Bond is thick, so again, a pea-size dab, which I dilute by wetting my hands before rubbing it and applying it. Because both the Olay Regenerist Daily Regenerating Serum and the Gold Bond Ultimate lotion are glycerin-based, they don't clog your pores, or make your face oily. I found the 1.7 oz bottle of Olay Regenerist will last me almost 3 months or more when I use it in this fashion. Great product!

The 1st thing I liked about the product was the ease of getting it out of the bottle. Slight pressure on the top of the spout releases just a small amount. I have been using it 2X a day, morning & night. There seems to be a definite difference in the texture of my skin. Absolutely, much softer.

I have extremely dry skin and live in a very dry climate. This product is wonderful. My skin feels hydrated and smooth all day. Other products I have used, including some in the Olay product line, had to be re-applied every few hours. I can apply this once in the morning and once at night and my skin is smooth and moist all day long.

Serum goes on smoothly and sinks right in. I always use the Perfecting Cream on top in daytime and the night cream over it in the evening. My skin seems clearer and softer after only about a week.

I have tried so many products to just be totally disappointed. But this one does work. The lines under my eys are my problem area and this has helped to make them much less noticeable..
Manufactures take note-- I am tired of the false claims and when I find something that actually works I will buy it. Most I have tried before do not work and should not be advertised as such.

This product has truly made a difference in the smoothness and tone of my skin. Used as part of a daily cleansing and moisturizing regimen the effect is fantastic. I was additionally impressed that I've seen it mentioned in several beauty magazines as one of the best on the market!! You cannot beat the price on Amazon, especially when you combine it as part of a Super Saver shipping order. Start today and you'll keep it on your shelf always!!

Great if you mix with a richer moisturizer - Review written on September 28, 2004

I am giving it four stars because this serum doesn't provide enough moisture for my skin (dry to normal). I also tried the Olay perfecting cream, which is even drier. However, one day just by chance I mixed this serum with the Shiseido Benefiance (very rich and oily moisturizer). The mixed lotion becomes magically perfect for my skin. The serum provides the amino-acids complex and other nutrients. The Shiseido keeps enough moisture on the skin. I am so glad about the result - I do this every day now. My skin feels so good and comfortable. If you have the same feelings about this serum, why don't you give it a try to mix it with your other favorite rich moisturizers.

This product has been great for me. I use it everyday and can definately see the difference. When I get up in the morning I have puffiness under my eyes, after putting on this serum the puffiness disappears in about 5 minutes and my skin looks radiant. I love it. I am sensitive to fragrances so thankfully this come fragrance-free. Try it, you'll love the results.

I am 32 and have had severe scarring acne since my early 20's. I tried this product and and have noticed a definate improvement in smoothing out the scars that I have from previous outbreaks. I will say that I have an olive complexion and there is a reddish tone to my skin now. It isn't severe but may be more noticeable with lighter skin tones. Also there is a slight tingling sensation that I get after using this product. This may be because I used Rentina for a while to help my acne outbreaks. All in all this product works well for me. I would recommend it with caution to others just because of the slight reddening I saw in my skin tone.
