Olay Regenerist 3 Point Super Serum

For a quite a while I have heard people talking about "serums" but I never really understood the hype. I've always been of the mind-set that if I take care of my skin & cleanse/moisturise daily then that's all I need to do.


My skincare routine had slipped last year after having my little boy. I considered it a good day if I had managed to wash my face and put some moisturiser on before bed. At the beginning of this year I promised that I would start taking better care of myself. I have been lucky enough to always look that bit younger than I actually am so I should appreciate it and try to help it stay that way. :-)


Last month I had a look around and couldn't believe how many serums there are out there! I use quite a few Olay products so I decided that I would stick with what I know. 



I purchased Olay Regenerist 3 Point Super Serum. It cost £19.99 in Superdrug. Not the cheapest but definitely not the most expensive either. This is what Olay says about their 3 Point Super Serum:



Discover Regenerist's most concentrated serum for dramatically firmer skin on the face, neck and décolletage, and experience younger-looking skin in a matter of weeks.
Immediately: Hydrates to instantly plump the skin for a lifted appearance.
The new Olay Regenerist 3 point super serum targets the three hard to treat areas: the face, neck and décolletage for firmer looking skin.
After 2 weeks: Helps reduce the appearance of lines & wrinkles for younger looking skin.
With super concentrated amino-peptide complex.



Olay suggest that you use 2 pumps of the product and rub it into your skin using circular motions. I was dubious initially because it certainly doesn't feel like enough to do your face, neck and décolletage. It really is all you need though. On a more indulgent night I'll use 3 pumps but its not necessary.


I gave my face a good inspection before using the Olay serum. I wanted to "know" my skin so that I could see if there were any changes after a few weeks.


I have to say, this stuff is the business. I noticed a few lines on my forehead prior to use. You had to look closely to see them but knowing they were there was enough for me to want to get rid of them. After a fortnight of using the Olay Regenerist 3 Point Super Serum the lines are basically gone! I'm surprised and chuffed!


My makeup sits perfectly on top of it too. I thought it would create shiny patches but it doesn't, thankfully. And just as a wee side note, it smells lovely. :-)


I won't say that this particular serum is for keeps but I am going to continue using a serum, no doubt about it. I'm all for fighting the signs of ageing and these serums seem to be a great tool for the battle!


Have you used Olay Regenerist 3 Point Super Serum?
What did you think of it?
Have you used other serums?
Let me know!

Much love,
