Advantages: easily absorbed, It works

Disadvantages: You don`t get as much as you think

My Mum actually recommended this product to me. She`s 65 and obviously knows what she`s talking about.

I must admit I haven`t felt the need for moisturiser up until recently, albeit foolishly! However Mum was bought this as a present at £18.50 and thought the product was worth the expense. Being a Mum of two and not exactly flush, this seemed out of my price range.

However, our local market had some on sale for £8 so I treated myself and I`m glad I did. The moisturiser is silky, rich and absorbes beautifully leaving your skin feeling lovely and sooth, not at all greasy. I have noticed a marked improvement in my skins level of softness and would happily by the product again - hopefully as reasonably as last time!!!

The only problem is that I discovered, as I tried to drag out the last dregs form the container (well it was expensive), that the contianer is a bit of an optical illusion! There is an inner compartment, which actually holds the cream, that is MUCH smaller than the outside. You get far less than you think for your money, worth bearing in mind if you are paying full price.

If you are rather frugal with your hard earned dosh you might want to try markets or discount chemists like Bodycare and Superdrug.

Whether you want to treat someone or yourself I would give this a go - you`ll love the results!

There is a web site www.olay.com which may (probably not)answer this burning question. You have to register though so I think I'll pass.

sorry Debrina,
a very good op. I got a bit carried away there answering moistoist's question, or trying to anyway.
You could have started a great debate here.

It used to be called oil of ulay and both words are not in the dictionary.
Moistoist you have got me interested now.
The nearest word that I can think of is Olea and that is a plant.
