Product Review: Olay Regenerist Deep Hydration Renegerating Cream

According to the Olay website at http://www.olay.com, Olay Regenerist Deep Hydration Regenerating Cream will intensely hydrate and beautifully regenerate your skin's appearance. The website goes on to say "Olay Regenerist Deep Hydration Regenerating Cream uses our exclusive amino-peptide complex, which combines vitamin E, pro-vitamin B5 and Olay moisture in a rich, non-greasy formula. It visibly regenerates skin's appearance and intensely hydreates dry skin. The unique dispensing pump delivers a fresh, clean application every use. Suitable for everyday use for normal, dry and combination skin. The results? Younger looking skin without drastic measures. Instantly the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles is softened and skin's texture is improved. Over time your skin's appearance will be beautifully regenerated. Use alone or create your own regimen with other Regenerist skin care products".

I've never been one to spend a lot of money on the higher priced skin care items such as Lancome, Clinique, Estee Lauder, etc. But I had heard some good things about Regenerist products, and their website certainly makes the product sound like a dream come true, so I decided to splurge and spend my hard earned $18 and give this product a try.

On the back of the bottle, it says "Olay Renegerist doubles skin's surface cell regeneration rate vs. untreated skin, for a younger looking skin without drastic measures".

Directions for use on the back of the bottle: Pull overcap. Peel protective seal off top of package. Gently push down on top of package to dispense product from center of package. Wipe product with fingertips and smooth evenly over face and neck. Use one of twice daily, alone or under make-up.

Here are my pros and cons on the product.

Pros:

- The cream is a nice peachy pink color, pleasing to the eye.

- I love the silky creamy texture of the cream.

- After using for 1 week, my face is incredibly soft and silky to the touch.

- After using for 2 weeks, the blotchy red areas on my skin are starting to even out.
