Olay Regenerist 3 point fragrance free cream

Olay Regenerist 3 point fragrance free cream 50ml
Sold anywhere from £15.50 amazon/ebay to £24.99 to £29.99 Boots or Superdrug

This cream is way to expensive for full price, considering Olay was always a beauty budget cream so what happened Olay why the expensive prices these days!!!

I bought this for £15.00 via ebay and thats about all I would have paid for this I have used olay products before, see my other reviews and Olay isnt a bad cream the problem I find is the fragrance I dont like it and it gives me spots so two reasons there why I probably wouldnt buy it and the price (another dig!) so make that three reasons.

Ok your probably thinking im not impressed so far and probably wont buy it but read on.  Its a big red Jar with a silver lid quite attractive they do say red is a colour that attracts the eye when out shopping so probably tactics where thats concerned. So the amount 50ml is a fair amount, the first thing I did was smell it and like it said on the tin it didnt smell of much just a light pleasant smell.  The cream is thick and should be rubbed around your fingers to thin it out otherwise you would use way to much.

I have read great reviews about this and was looking forward to trying it which I did on the day it arrived.

Let me tell you the science bit

• Treats the difficult areas that some products ignore
• Achieves dramatically younger-looking skin with the high levels of amino-peptide

Ok so this is the promise it is making and heres my diary of events so far.

Week one
I have put this cream on my face but im going to have to be careful I think Im being too generous with it at this rate it isnt going to last five minutes.  It rubbed onto my face really well with no residue sitting on the top of my skin.
Day 4 of the first week got a few spots which I am hoping are not going to get worse it says unfragranced so not sure why unless its just too thick and clogging up my pores.

Week two
Still got a few spots not liking that I normally only get them before my period but they say sometimes skin takes time to get used to a new product so heres hoping its the settling in period.

day 5 of the second week. Another spot has appeared just when the others had started to go, Im not liking that!  One more week and if I get anymore Im ditching this cream as you know girls theres nothing worse than arranging a night out only to find on the morning of that day you have a big spot!!

My skin does look nice though its certainly more hydrated than with other creams I have used, my Jaw doesnt look much different maybe just my skin a little plumper but still some sag so no miracles as yet but early days.  Im watching the spots though as whats the point of nice skin if you have spots its contradicts the whole thing.

Week four

Ive jumped to week four mainly because its took my skin this long to stop breaking out and to be honest I had almost given up but its been 6 days since my last spot so all good.  I like the cream a lot and my jaw line is showing some signs of looking a bit firmer and and lines around my mouth dont look as deep when I smile so I would recommend it as I have seen an improvement not a jaw droping wow one but enough for now to keep me using it.

A good tip at night is to mix this with a few drops of argan oil as this really makes your skin nice and hydrated the next day.

I will keep you updated.

It maybe worth trying the 3 point serum rather  than the cream if your prone to spots  as serums tend to be a liquid substance.


UPDATE

Ok so its been a good what 8 months since I posted this wow time flies when your getting old!!
I give up on this as to many spots but if you don't break out then keep using it, shame though I liked this and it was unperfumed but was that enough!! maybe its not what it says in the description never mind onward and upward!!

DERMAROLLER REVIEW

DERMAROLLERS
This product can be purchased all over the Internet and caution should be made when purchasing one also you should be careful as to what size needle you choose.
If you want the deeper needles up to 2.0mm take note they are usually only used by beauty salons and do hurt with some bleeding and the face is usually numbed before the roller is used this method is only done every 6-8 weeks as this procedure usually goes quite deep into the skin personally im not interested in this much trauma to my skin but I hear it works well.

Moving onto me and my experience I bought a 0.5mm to use on my face which was £8.00 came in a sterile package and a nice box with it too, I did a bit of research first and thought the 0.2mm seems a bit of a waste of time as it doesnt penetrate deep enough into the skin and as I looked into other sizes thought the 1.0mm was a bit to thick so everything seemed to come down to the 0.5mm especially as a do it yourself treatment.

I did read the instructions carefully and even though I was nervous I went for it. The instructions are basically roll up six times roll across six times roll diagonally left 6 times and right 6 times then move onto the next area and repeat.

I did this but felt it wasnt enough so being the fool that I am did it again!!!! they say you maybe look a bit red like a sunburn but I ended up looking like I had been sunbathing all day without any sunscreen on and it was sore as hell, I managed to catch my nose a few times with led to it bleeding (nothing to bad) the next day it had eased off but was still a bit sore looking but my fault I thought I needed more rolls than needed.

Now the 0.5 mm roller recommends you can use it twice a week, but I had to wait a week as I was so over keen the first time that I think my face took a little bit longer to get back to normal.  The second time I used it was better and I didnt over do it.  I have used it 4 times and cant see any difference but I will give it a good try as it can take months to see improvements.

Facts
It hurts not enough to make you scream but rolling needles over the face isnt like a nice massage its uncomfortable but bearable.

do not do this before a night out do it two days before a big event and dont overdo it either. wouldnt recommend you do it just before bed either.

Do not put your normal face cream straight on top of it leave it a good few hours first to settle down and dont put harsh face creams on as wouldnt think it would help.

If you have bleeding like I did around the nose then get yourself a bottle of witch hazel put some on cotton wool and dab the blooded areas, also use this to sterilise the roller to its a great all round cleanser.

Do not use on your eyelids or lips common sense here as its different skin.

Go from 6 rolls to 10 after a few gos if you skin is getting used to it.

If your husband laughs at your red face then slap his so it matches yours lol.

Take it easy with roller (weapon) its not a race you only have one face!!

I will keep this updated as as hoping this will as promised improve skin tone, scars, acne, and wrinkles.

Ok so I have been using this a while now Im not convinced as yet that its some new fantastic device and I dont recommend you use it twice a week as by the time your skin has settled down your using it again so doesnt make sense to do this.  I think that once a week is fine my skin looks good but Im not sure its down to this,  I will give it a couple of more months.
