Building a skincare routine that works for you can be costly, especially if you want to incorporte good quality brands that will serve up results. The value for money depends on the original price of the product but some are well worth taking advantage of, especially if they have recieved glowing reviews.
The Olay Total Effects Anti-Ageing Moisturiser and Serum Duo SPF 20 40ml would typically cost £16.99 and you’ll need to be quick if you want to pick it up for a tenner as the sale ends tonight.
The two in one moisturiser and serum duo has the anti-ageing properties of a moisturiser as well as the intesity of a serum to supercharge and streamline your skincare routine. Designed to battle seven signs of ageing, it promises youthful and healthier looking skin by reducing the appearance of wrinkles, smoothing skin texture, hydrating, brightening and restoring firmness.
It’s packed with ingredients to help with this, including Niacinamide and Antioxidants, plus it has SPF20 so can be applied daily to protect against harmful skin-damaging UV rays.
Hundreds of reviews praise the product for its effectiveness in making the skin look more youthful, giving it an overall rating of 4.5 out of five stars on the Boots website.
One person commented: “This is brilliant – it goes on well and smells wonderful. It’s a handy size pack and the pump is clean and easy to use. No nasty pots to put fingers in. You can also see the product being used up and none being wasted which I like. It’s got SPF20 too which is very good news. For what you get it’s really good value. I have dry/sensitive skin but I’m having no problems using this and my skin feels great afterwards. It might be my new favourite.”
Another happy customer said: “So easy to put on and feels great, very smooth and soft. I recommend this as daily morning moisturiser. I’m 67 years young.”
A third user wrote: “Ahhh this product is pure gold. If you’re having problems will dull dry skin you should definitely purchase this product. My skin looks so radiant and feels so soft. 10/10 from me.”
It has been noted however that the formula is “super rich” so a little goes a long way and we would recommend only using a pea-sized amount.
