I've been using Olay Regenerist products for a couple weeks now, and I'm very impressed.

I first bought the foaming face cleanser, then I bought the Microsculping Cream, and today I bought the Night Revitalizing Elixer.

The cleanser is wonderful. My face feels so clean after I've used it, and it feels "tight" like I like, but also soft at the same time. And I really hate moisturizer on my skin because my skin tends towards the oily side, and when I wake up in the morning my face is so greasy that it looks like it's been smothered in oil. But this Microsculpting cream moisturizes and melts right in so that during the day my skin still has that just washed tight/dry like I like.

I am heavy so I don't have many lines and wrinkles on my face, but I'm almost 50 so I figured I better start doing something now before they start to show!

I've just started with Arbonne products and they are amazing. Probably the best I've ever used.

My SIL is a National VP for arbonne in Chicago. She finally talked me into becoming a consultant. I absolutely love the RE9 line. excellent.

I have used Olay regenerist and think that is a great skin care line as well.

Yes, Olay is also good but I have had adverse reactions to them so I avoid them. Having said that, I also had an allergic reaction to Clinique which is supposed to be non-allergenic so go figure!

I have used Olay Active Rehydrating "beauty fluid"
(facial lotion) for over 30 years. Remember when it used to be Oil of Olay? Anyway, once I tried Olay Complete and it turned my face red. Did that one do the same thing to you?

I really like a product found at Aldi! It's Lacura Q10 day cream. It's made in Germany and not tested on animals. I like that in the winter when I need something heavier than Olay.

I have very sensitive skin and can't use Clinique either. However, I've been using Olay on and off for years, and have never had a problem with their products.

I find the Olay skin care line to be very user friendly. I wash my face in the shower and slather on what I need to and then get out of the shower and either go to bed or get dressed for the day. And with their site I was able to put together a plan and the items I needed for my skin and routine.

Interestingly, my dad was heavy and never had any lines (just some laugh lines around eyes); my mom, however, stayed skinny and had a lot, LOT of lines.

I used to be a size 6 (at 5'10") and still had no lines (some laugh lines is all) at age 44. After I moved back to my home town from 20 years in Los Angeles, I went up to a size 18-20 which would fill in any lines I would have gotten.

I've always just used Ivory Soap to clean my face, then Nivea enriched for face and neck, once soaked in, I use Royal Bee Jelly and that's it. I used to wear tons of make-up (having been in the entertainment business and having to wear it on stage) and it was a hard habit to break, but finally broke it. All I wear now besides the moisturizers is Nivea Lip Balms. The colors stay on longer than, say (lol) Diet Dr. Pepper gloss which I used to always use since a kid.

That's it for me. Let my hair grow natural, so it's black 'n silver now. Wish I would have done that years ago - feels so much more natural and friends and people I hadn't seen in awhile really liked it too! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee
