Olay Regenerist Retinol24 Night Serum 4-stars Reviews
This serum is the...
This serum is the perfect consistency. It's not too runny and not too sticky. It has a light scent that is really refreshing and it rubs into the skin with no annoying residue. I do have sensitive skin so it does leave it a little red after applying but it fades away within an hour like most products I apply to my face. Over the month I have trialed this product from an Olay voxbox from influenster my skin's texture and appearance has improved. The only negative thing is that in the morning my skin does appear extra oily from all the moisture, but I wash my face every morning so it's not a huge problem for me. Overall, I really do enjoy this project and will most likely be buying on my own once my sample runs out. Definitely a recommendation in my book.
If youre looking for...
If youre looking for a cheap yet effective retinol, I highly suggest checking out Olay Regenerist Retinol 24 Night Facial Serum! Ive used many retinols over the years, and I could tell very quickly that this product lives up to its claims. The only thing I dont care for is the addition of dimethicone in the formulawhile this ingredient makes the serum glide easily onto the skin, I find that it can be a tad drying, which amplifies the drying effect of the retinol. Overall, I highly recommend! I received this product complimentary in exchange for a review, but all opinions are my own.
Ok so I have...
Ok so I have been using this night serum for a little over 2 weeks now I & I have to say I actually do enjoy it it leaves my skin looking plump in the opening and its also hydrating I really didnt see much of a difference in my skin texture ! Also I have notice that I just recently started breaking out not sure if its because of the serum but will keep using if break outs keep occurring I will need to stop using this product but other than that I havent had any other issues with my skin and my skin is sensitive! This product was sent to me for testing purposes by Influenster!
I was so happy...
I was so happy to receive this for free for testing purposes from influester because I love retinol and use it every other night. So when I got to try this and compare it to other high priced retinol, I was surprised that although by the price it works just as good. Although retinol takes awhile for you to see a difference. I loved waking up and feeling how soft and nice my skin felt. I didnt have any adverse reaction to it and it mixed well with my other skincare. You dont need much For it to go a long ways. Im also happy that it doesnt have a real strong smell to it.
Adding this nightly facial...
Adding this nightly facial serum to my routine has been so amazing for my skin!! I love the way it makes my face feel so fresh and hydrated. There is no scent so thats a plus and it has helped my face feel so smooth and it has even helped with my dry flaky skin around my nose. Only flaw I found that needs work is the dropper used to get the product out of the bottle. It doesnt seem to be all that effective, I squeeze the dropper multiple times just to get enough product, which is the only frustrating part. I think with correction of the dropper this product really would be top notch!
This product gets mixed...
This product gets mixed feelings from me. The packaging is nice and it feels a bit more expensive than your typical drugstore skincare product. I wish it would have a glass dropper instead of the plastic one. I was skeptical because other retinol products I've tried have made my dry, sensitive skin burn and break out like crazy, even when used sparingly. This doesn't! I have noticed slightly more small whiteheads a day or two each time after use, but they are truly tiny and disappear quickly. However, I'm assuming for this retinol product to be safe for daily use it has significantly less retinol than other products. That's great if your skin reacts to it like mine does...but it also means it's much less effective. I'm 27, so I don't have crazy wrinkles yet or anything but I do have a lot of deeper fine lines around the folds of my nose, corners of my mouth, and under my brows thanks to hormonal/skin conditions causing havoc. Those other products made me miserable but I could see immediate, drastic improvement. This doesn't do that. It may be better after long-term consistent use but tbh I'm not the greatest at consistency with my night time skincare routine. If you are trying to combat minor fine lines in your 20s-30s, this could be a great and gentle option for you. If you are older or have more significant lines like I do, I think a stronger retinol product might be a better choice.
I received a complimentary...
I received a complimentary sample of Olay Regenerist Retinol 24 Night Facial Serum from Influenstor and wanted to ensure I provided a completely honest review
I used the serum each night for 3 weeks. The packaging is attractive and the purple really stands out against other products. The dropper is well made and worked as intended. The smell is light and I barely noticed it at all. The serum is lightweight and not greasy, so I had no issues with breakouts. It leaves my face hydrated and skin feels very soft. Some retinol products cause irritation, but this did not. My skinner appeared more smooth and elastic. I cant wait to see what the results will produce a month from now!
I got this serum...
I got this serum from Influenster in exchange of my honest review, I have been using this product for several days now and the product didnt cause any bad reaction on my skin, I was impressed because usually retinol Can cause some irritation. I recommend to start in gradient maybe three days per week because retinol can be affect your skin. It inly to apply at night, and dont forget to apply sunscreen the next day because your skin will be more sensitive to the sun. It is a good option to start trying retinol because it is very light on the skin. I didnt love the applicator, it is too hard for me to squeeze and apply the drops. The product itself is kind of milky and sold it absorbes really fast and the skin look radiant. If you have your own dermatologist I recomend to ask him about retinol and its benefits and how you should use it. I hope this helped!
This is overall a...
This is overall a great product. The packaging is sturdy and nice. There is no fragrance in the product which is wonderful for my sensitive skin. It is easy to apply and sinks right into my skin. It immediately leaves my face soft and smooth and it feels a bit firmer. I use it once a day at night. I havent experienced any dryness with this product as I have with other retinol serums. I havent noticed any huge overall change in my skin but Ive only been using for about 2 weeks. I dont have really have any wrinkles or lines though so maybe it would have a more dramatic effect on someone who is experiencing those issues. I will continue to use as I do like the feel and potential long term benefits of the serum.
I really wish we...
I really wish we had more time to review this serum but for now, this is fairly nice! My skin isn't sensitive so I had no issues or reactions to it when it was applied. I like applying at night to clean skin and occasionally with a roller if I'm feeling up for it. I have drier skin and this worked nicely with my current routine + the Olay refreshing serum stick. I found myself waking up with soft skin that felt hydrated and looked great under makeup.
The bottle is nicely weighted and doesn't feel too light or cheap. The dropper works well and the tube is long, I'm assuming you wouldn't find it too hard to get product once you're getting low. I do wish, however, that the bottle or at least the bottom perhaps was made of more see through glass or plastic. Given that the bottle is completely opaque and weighty itself, it's hard to tell how much product you have left. Overall, this has been a great product to add to my routine and I can't wait to see what else it'll do for my skin long term.
This serum has just...
This serum has just left my face feeling phenomenal and incredibly smooth! I’m not one to buy serums and oils because I have an oily face to begin with so I was skeptical at first but it’s non greasy. My pores appear to be small and my overall complexion looks and feels great. The size of the bottle seems to be good cause a little drop can go a long way. I do enjoy this product very much but the price point is a little over my budget. But when I do have enough it’s definitely worth the money.
I didnt mind this...
I didnt mind this actually. I thought it was going to be able to replace my oil serum, but this is more of a lightweight cream serum. I have really dry skin so I would probably use this in combination with something in the future, but on its own I didnt find it to be particularly drying. It almost put a comfortable seal over my face to lock in the initial moisture, but over time I felt like I wanted to add another cream and I started to feel dry again. If youre looking for a light weight night cream or serum this might be a good one to try. And its by Olay so you know they prioritize skin care!
This Night facial Serum...
This Night facial Serum has worked wonders on my skin!! I love the way it makes my face feel after application, theres no scent so thats a plus and it has helped my face feel plump, reduced the redness from my acne scarring, cleared up my subtle acne spots and has even helped with my dry flaky skin around my nose, the only reason I didnt give this product five stars is because of the dropper used to get the product out of the bottle doesnt seem effective, I squeeze the topper multiple times to get product, which is the only frustrating pet but besides that I am definitely obsessed with this product and will continue to use this serum every night from now on!!
I've been using this...
I've been using this serum almost every evening the past 2 weeks. I have oily/sensitive/ acne prone skin and am always on the hunt for products that can provide me moisture without the breakouts. I am really enjoying this serum so far. It is fragrance free and has a milky consistency. It glides on the face nicely and does not leave a sticky or oily residue. I wake up in the morning with hydrated skin that seems more vibrant and plump.
I havent had any breakouts from this product which is HUGE for me. I was worried at first with Dimethicone being listed as the 2nd ingredient. I will continue using this until I run out and may repurchase if I continue getting good results. It's hard to know with skincare products only after 2 weeks of use if it will be rotated into your normal routine. I will say though that I have been taking pictures of my problem areas every 3-4 days and have noticed a reduction in pigment where I have acne scars! I have also noticed my skin texture has smoothed out the tiniest bit. I will post pictures of where I started after 1-2 days of use vs after 2 weeks of use
I have never tried...
I have never tried a product with retinol before this serum, so I was a little nervous to try it. The formula is a milky serum that's thick enough not to immediately slide off your fingers, but thin enough to smooth easily onto the skin. It has no scent, so that was nice. The bottle is a pretty purple heavy duty plastic with a nice dropper. I used it for about a week and a half and so far my skin has seemed to enjoy the product. I'm 25 and don't have many fine lines or wrinkles just yet, so I can't really attest to how it affects that. It's easy to rub in and I had no weird side effects. I'll continue using this bottle and depending on how that goes I may repurchase in the future. Overall, it's a nice product that's mild enough to use every night and is truly fragrance free. If you're looking for a mild retinol, I'd recommend this.
I have been using...
I have been using this product every night for 2 weeks now. While I am lucky to not have many fine lines or dark spots, the place I think this helped the most was my giant designer bags under my eyes.
While this was my most exhausting week in a while and typically my bags are huge. They are under stated less dark than is typical. See un makeuped and freshly awake picture. The bags are there but are much less noticeable than they typically are!
This serum also hydrates super well and makes your face feel so so so soft!
I would have given...
I would have given it a 5 star, but I just started the retinol and would like to wait and see what the cream does for preventing wrinkles and eliminating current ones. Of course things to change instantly, so here is my review for a week of use.
I like the feel of the product. It doesn't feel oily. I have combination skin so sometimes more oily but this serum doesn't make my skin feel oily or dry, so it is just right. Of course because it's a new topical that I've introduced to my skin, I started getting a few pimples but those will go away soon enough. I'm really excited to watch what this serum will do for me. I'm 30 years old and don't have much for wrinkles, so I'm hoping it's a good preventative!
I really enjoyed this...
I really enjoyed this serum! It comes out white in color but its very light weight and soaks into the skin nicely. It is a retinol serum and anyone who knows anything about skin knows that retinols and retinoids prevent aging, lines and wrinkles. The smell of the serum was pleasant and it just made my skin feel very nice and smooth. I havent really noticed much of a difference in my skin tone or texture after multiple uses, but Im sure it takes times to create a lasting impact on the skin. Overall a great product !
Ive only used one...
Ive only used one retinol before so I was excited to try something new in my skincare regimen. The Olay Regenerist packaging is very simple. Retinols, like most skincare need time to work or show results (hence the missing star), however I like that it can be used with other products. I applied the retinol after cleansing, toning and adding a skin essence. I followed with a non chemical oil to lock in moisture since some retinols are known to dry out the skin. This will now be apart of my daily 7 step skincare routine for the next 30 days to see its full potential/effects.
**I received this product...
**I received this product complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.** I used this product for a few nights, and I did notice a slight difference in the texture on my forehead. Upon first application, I would say this feels more like a smoothing product than a hydrating product. Feels very much like youre applying a silicone primer (second ingredient is dimethicone). There is a slight hydrated feeling, but I usually prefer more for my dry skin. I did absolutely love the dropper applicator and the fact that this product is fragrance free! I also love that this retinol serum is very gentle on the skin. Overall Id say its pretty good, especially if youre wanting to get into retinols. I definitely feel it would be better for oily skin or as a summer serum when extra hydration isnt really needed as much.
