Olay Total Effects 7 in one Day Moisturiser

I tried this moisturiser after suddenly noticing I had developed a few wrinkles (I think the dry skin on my face made them look worse!) as it seemed to be the answer to my prayers – moisturiser that reduces fine lines and has sun protection in it – what more could I want?

I like the design of the pump action bottle, but I am wondering if it will leave a lot behind in the pot that cannot be reached and will go to waste. 


 


The cream appears very thick and looks more like a tinted moisturiser when you pump some out, but it goes on very smoothly and feels like a much more expensive cream. 




The cream sinks in fairly quickly, but doesn’t seem to stay that moisturising once it has sunk in. An hour after putting it on my skin begins to feel dry again. 

I’m not convinced the sun protection at factor 15 is anywhere near high enough as several times I have worn this and still got burnt cheeks and nose (although I do burn very easily) and I wish this could be slightly higher.

I have been using this cream now for a month and although my skin may look slightly better, I haven’t noticed any real improvement. On the plus side it does seem to suit my very sensitive skin. My wrinkles still look exactly the same – I fear I am stuck with them now!

I brought this when it was on offer in Superdrug and will stick with it for now as my daily moisturiser.
