Advantages: Brilliantly priced and kind to skin

Disadvantages: Dubious on their Animal Testing charter

I've never known anyone to dis this product! Lets face it our Mums and Grandma's are usually known for loving it through the generations!

It's been around for ever this one and even though Olay have brought out other products far more revolutionary this, to me is still the best!

The Packaging Of Olay Beauty Fluid....

Firstly the box is light pink and dark pink with a picture of the bottle on the front of it. On one side of the box it gives beauty tips. On the back it tells us why the moisturiser is right for us and how it works. On the other side of the tells us how to use it and ingredients.

The bottle is a 100ml recyclable. On the front simple branding and on the back tells us again, how to use it. It has a black screw on lid doesn't look anything special just classic.

So The Lotion.....

The one I use is the non-greasy moisturising fluid for sensitive skin. I did use the lotion for normal skin but I found it harsh and it made my eyes water and this doesn't. This lotion is white and doesn't smell. It isn't runny but it does spread easily. As you rub it into your face you can feel the water content in it. When it's on the face you can't feel it at all and it doesn't feel one bit greasy. I use it all the time, under my make up first thing in the morning, whenever I want to it as it never upsets my skin at all.

The Official Word....

Light, fast penetrating moisturizer that softens and smooths for radiant skin. Original Active Hydrating Beauty Fluid moisturizer penetrates quickly and gently, providing your skin with an immediate surge of active moisture to smooth away dryness with no greasy feel. Olay Active Hydrating Beauty Fluid helps your skin replenish essential fluids so it is softer, smoother and more supple.

Original Active Hydrating Beauty Fluid works like the essential fluids abundant in young skin to help restore skin to its natural beauty and diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Suitable for all skin types. This light, non-greasy formula is dermatologist tested and non-comedogenic (won't clog pores).

The Tips On The Box...

Mix a little Olay Beauty Fluid with your liquid foundation base. It will not only help you get the coverage you want, you'll also get the moisturising and soothing benefits that beauty fluid brings with it.
After a day in the sun, apply Beauty fluid, which is hydrating, but so light and absorbent that you are left with silky soft skin.
Massage a few drops of Beauty Fluid every time you wash your hands and before you know it they will feel moisturised and velvety smooth.

Overall....

This is another product I'd never be without. As soon as I apply it I feel my skin loves me! It's one of the only products that I feel is truly kind and doesn't annoy my skin. Not once have I broken out in spots (which I'm very prone to). I always use a moisturiser under my make up and it never feels greasy or gives me problems. I suffer with dry eyes and fragranced products gives me the burn where as this if I accidently get a little bit in my eye I can simply wipe it away without any sign of tears.

There are many other Olay products, in fact so many ranges its too confusing. I've tried them and I like them but I cant see how they are any better. I'm ageing fairly well, am not covered in wrinkly skin and do have a healthy glow about me and I do think Olay can take some of the credit for that.

One Massive Drawback....

I did forget to mention so have added this.

Procter and Gamble do not say they don't animal test. This is not a claim they make the same as Persil, Fairly Liquid, Domestos and many other things we don't stop and think of. I'm vehemently against Animal Testing and if I looked into this and it became clarity that they really did test on animals I'd have to stop using it.

Price £3.99 100ml Boots but it is available in many places of course.

At that price you just cant go wrong eh!
Do try...it's suitable for all skin types and any age!
