As you probably guessed by now, I am a full blown Olay convert. I have yet to try one of their products that I don’t love. Not only are you getting a high quality product that tackles some of my peskiest skin issues and insecurities, but it is also incredibly affordable. You can’t argue with that!
As I entered my thirties, I wanted to be extra proactive about fine lines and wrinkles. As you get older, skin begins to lose some firmness as your natural collagen supply decreases. Exposure to the environment (like UV rays from the sun), can also cause collagen in your skin to break down even more. I’d like to try to prevent this from happening, you know? And I’ve been so pleased with the results from using Olay moisturizers.
COLLAGEN BOOST WITH OLAY
Earlier this winter, I started incorporating the Olay Regenerist Collagen Peptide24 moisturizer into my skincare routine. From Day 1, I was hooked and noticed an improvement in my skin’s appearance. The moisturizer is specially formulated with peptides to boost natural collagen production and support your skin’s natural renewal processes. Peptides are the “building blocks” of skin proteins and this formula is proven to reduce fine lines and wrinkles and moisturizes better than more expensive moisturizers on the market.
Collagen itself is too big to penetrate your skin’s surface so it ends up staying topically on the skin and not providing the best results. The molecules of the Collagen Peptide24 formula are small enough to penetrate your skin’s surface that provide visible results from day one. This was my experience– I couldn’t believe how plump and firm my skin looked within the first week of using.
The moisturizer is fragrance free and feels so luxurious going on. I apply to my face and neck every morning and evening. It feels incredibly soft while applying. I wake up with dewy, bright, and firm skin! Plus, I notice that my makeup goes on smoother and I don’t have to use as much because my skin is so moisturized.

Out of curiosity – how do you find that this compares to the Olay Retinol Night Cream? Are you still using that one too?
I switched from the Retinol to try this. It would be an either or– this is a more gentle formula as Retinol isn’t for everyone!
You say you put it on in the morning and night, but where in your routine? Do you still use the Olay one with retinol?
This would be in place of your daily and nightly moisturizer! I stopped using the Retinol to test this product!
I bought the Retinol cream on your recommendation and I love it! I will try this one next.
On another note, would you please link to your robe? It looks so warm and comfy!
Here’s the robe! It was a wedding gift from one of Mike’s best friends (he got us matching ones– so cute). http://cprep.co/2MNB1BZ
Perfect timing for me- i just finished off my prior olay night cream! Two quick questions- do you just throw an spf on top of the moisturizer? And do you prefer this to the retinol? (You may prefer not to say- which is fine!)
Enjoy your snow and keep up your good work!
I always put on SPF over my moisturizer– so it’s typically the last step in my skincare routine. They feel pretty similarly going on and I feel like I’ve had similar “end results”– just different methods of getting there. I do like this isn’t as intense as Retinol (which can cause sensitivity to the sun) and that I can use it morning/night with the same product!
Now this is a price point I won’t feel bad about slathering all over my neck and chest as well as my face -ha. Thanks for sharing!
Hands too! 🙏🏻
