Olay Regenerist Advance Cleansing System If You Still Haven't Bought Clarisonic: Review and Price

11.7.15 2 Comments
Chances are if you are reading this post,you have either bought the Clarisonic already or atleast thought about it at some point of time. Though I give a clean skin utmost importance,I don't believe skin cannot stay clean without the usage of an electronic cleansing system. As far as I can remember,the beauty industry insisted we should dig deeper into our pockets to buy an electronic facial cleanser by introducing Clarisonic into the market and along and after came the sister concerns. One such in question today is the Olay Regenerist Advance Cleansing System! It is considered to be one of the budget versions of Clarisonic!

Brand Claims: 
Product Benefits:
• Up to 4X better cleansing than cleanser alone
• Gently exfoliates for smooth texture
• Enables better penetration of the actives contained in Micro-Sculpting Cream when used together

Results:
Skin is instantly cleaner, feels fresher.
Skin texture is improved & smoother with continuous usage.
For even more dramatic results, use in combination with Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Serum & Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream.

Product Attributes:
2-Speed Control delivers daily deep cleansing & gentle exfoliation. It is water-resistant for use in shower.
Gentle Brush Head (refills available) - For better removal of dirt & make-up, even in the T-zone & chin. It is specially designed to be gentle on skin for daily use.
2 AA batteries are included


 Directions For Use:

Ingredients:
Water, Glycerin, Lauramidopropyl Betaine, Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate, Oxidized Polyethylene, Sorbitol, Acrylates Copolymer, PEG-200 Hydrogenated Glyceryl Palmate, Citric Acid, Potassium Hydroxide, Polyquaternium-10, PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate, PEG-100, Disodium EDTA, Methylchloroisothiazolinone, Methylisothiazolinone

Price: INR 4095/-


Packaging: 

On unboxing, we get the dual speed control cleansing device,a brush head and two AA batteries. I got two detachable brush heads along with the cleansing system in the kit. I loved the packaging. 
Cleansing Device-The cleansing system itself is pretty light weight,handy yet sturdy. It is smaller than the Clarisonic and fits in the hands well. Super travel-friendly being cordless. The device comes with two buttons: first one is power button and the down one offers two speed settings.




 
Brush Head-The bristles of the brush head are very soft . They rotate 360 degrees to perfectly cleanse the skin. Cleaning the bristles isn't tasking at all. Just running under the tap water and rubbing the thumb over does the job well!

My Experience:
Olay Regenerist Advance Cleansing System
is my first electronic cleansing device. Never thought about the need of one since I was blessed with a good/maintenance free skin. But after having kids and the growing age off course,my focus is somehow shifting towards better skin care than just makeup. It is recommended that this device is used with the Olay regenerist skin renewal cleanser but I use it with my regular Neutrogena cleanser and it works fine for me!
I have had it for quite sometime now and I wanted to use it before writing a review. And now I can say that it has improved my skin quality in the sense that I don't break out at the drop of a hat since I have been using it. Also better cleansing of the skin has resulted in better penetration of moisturizers..gels..serums..face oils,thus increasing the suppleness of the skin! And though it shouldn't be taken as pros..but it gives me a facial kinda feel which is grrrrreattt!


Wrap Up:

  • Cost effective when compared to clarisonic.
  • Small-fits perfectly in hands.
  • Has two speed settings.
  • Battery operated.
  • Travel Friendly
  • Cordless and hassel free.
  • Soft,non-scratchy bristles.
  • Water resistant-can be used in shower.
  • Cleanses reallllllllyyy well.
  • Improves blood circulation.
  • Allows better penetration of the lotions and potions used thereafter.

  • Cant think of any cons!

Olay Natural White Day Cream

29.6.13 4 Comments
The quest for that perfect day cream goes on..Read on to find how this one fares...
Company Claims:
Its formula with triple nutrient system - vitamins B3, pro-B5 & E nourishes your skin to reduce the appearance of dark spots and dullness for a healthy-looking natural fairness that glows.
As compared to the Day Cream, it has light & non-greasy texture that absorbs easily to help nourish your skin with nutrients. This is suitable for all skin types.

Ingredients:
Water, Glycerin, Niacinamide, Butylene Glycol, Polyethylene, Dimethicone, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, Isopropyl Palmitate, Polyacrylamide, Stearyl Alcohol, Benzyl Alcohol, C13-14 Isoparaffin, Cetyl Alcohol, Triethanolamine, Behenyl Alcohol, Panthenol, Sucrose Polycottonseedate, Dimethiconol, Carbomer, Ethylparaben, Fragrance, Tocopheryl Acetate, Octocrylene, Phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic Acid, Laureth-7, Cetearyl Alcohol, Cetearyl Glucoside, Methylparaben, PEG-100 Stearate, Disodium EDTA, Propylparaben, Stearic Acid, Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Menthol, Limonene, Hexyl Cinnamal, Benzyl Salicylate, Linalool, Citronellol, Geraniol, Ammonium Polyacrylate, Tamarindus Indica Extract, Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Fruit Extract, Crataegus Cuneata Fruit Extract, Pyrus Malus (Apple) Fruit Extract, Zizyphus Jujuba Fruit Extract, Citrus Aurantifolia (Lime) Juice, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Juice, Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Juice, CI 77891, CI 19140, CI 16035.

Price Vs. Quantity: INR 99/ 20 gm

Directions to Use:
Use twice a day on a cleansed face and neck. Apply a small amount all over face and massage gently in circular motion.

Packaging:
Olay Natural White All In One Fairness Day Cream comes in a sleek plastic white tube. Very practical,nothing fancy!

My Take:
Just when I was through with my Avon Fairness Cream, and the rep told me there was still time for another tube to arrive. I gave Olay Natural White All In One Fairness Day Cream a try. The cream is soft beige in colour and has a mild floral fragrance. It is very moisturising yet light on skin. But I don't see it as a fairness cream (read Brightening).. The beige colour gave me an wrong impression of slight coverage which it obviously does not give.

Note: The hand appears fairer due to lighting issues
Though it claims to give UV protection but it has no mention of the SPF. Even being dry skinned I cannot imagine myself wearing this cream in summers. Its way to hydrating in hot months. If you are oily skinned or matte face lover...wait till its winter. Its good as a moisturiser but does not fair well as a day cream (no brightening effect).

My Likes:
1. Convenient packaging.
2. Mild floral fragrance.
3. Moisturising/hydrating.
4. Light on skin.
5. Pocket-friendly.
6. Gets absorbed easily.
7. Did not break me out.

My Dislikes:
1. Has no brightening effect.
2. Doesn't mention the SPF.
3. Doesn't reduce dark spots as it claims.
4. Will not make you fair.
5. Might come out greasy on oily skin.
6. Loaded with chemicals.
7. Doesn't mattify.

Last Word:
Olay Natural White All In One Fairness Day Cream fares well as a moisturiser but as a day cream I don't like it.I prefer my day creams to have a little brightening effect if not slight coverage. Waiting for winters to finish it up!

Repurchase:
No!!!!
