Olay earns positive reviews as a dependable, effective skincare and body-care brand that delivers noticeable hydration, softening, and anti‑aging results—especially standouts like Regenerist Micro‑Sculpting Cream, the MAX Niacinamide + Peptide 24 Serum, and soothing body washes—while weaknesses center on heavy or polarizing fragrance and occasional textures that feel too thick for combination or oily skin. Reviews also note elegant textures, fine mists, and lasting skin comfort, but scent longevity varies and some products read more basic than their claims suggest.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
I really like this Olay super facial cleanser. It has 5 cleanser benefits in 1: cleanses, purifies, hydrates, renews and smooths the skin. It has 5 serums: niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, collagen peptide, vitamin c and vitamin d. It's a cream to lather. It's a light texture, it reminds me of mousse dessert. It makes my skin feel tight and smooth after using. There is a scent to this face wash. I'm not sure what it is, I think it's almost fruity, but if you don't like scents or are sensitive to scents you might want to think twice before getting this.

Olay brings pampering spa-like experience to your home! This gentle lavender scent wraps you in a soft, dreamy cloud and instantly sets a cozy relaxing mood. The texture lathers and rinses well, cleansing the skin gently. It creates a nice, creamy lather that spreads easily and makes shower time feel extra relaxing. After rinsing my skin feels soft, radiant and well-cared for. Olay turnes everyday routine into a small moment of relaxation and self-care.

Olay brings luxurious spa-like experience to you! From the start citrusy sweet scent elevates my senses, it smells luxurious and lingers for a while. The thick formula lathers and rinses well, while micro bids gently exfoliate. My skin looks radiant but feels soft and moisturized. I received this product for free from Topbox Marketing for testing and review purposes.

Love Love Love! Olay Super Shimmer body oil is just the best! The shimmer is very beautiful and gives my skin this nice glow,perfect for sun kissed effect. The scent is so luxurious and high end, I can't get enough of it. There is no sticky or greasy sensation, my skin feels hydrated and nourished.

I’ve been a loyal Olay user for decades, ever since the days when it was called "Oil of Olay" and sat on my mother's vanity. While I’ve always trusted the brand, at 62 years old, my skin needs serious, heavy-hitting care. I decided to give the Olay Regenerist MAX Niacinamide + Peptide 24 Anti-Wrinkle Serum a full 60-day trial, and the dramatic results have exceeded every expectation. Texture & Application: The serum has a sleek, lightweight consistency with a smooth glass dropper that makes dosing simple. It melts into the skin instantly without feeling greasy, tacky, or rolling under moisturizer. Because it’s fragrance-free, it never causes redness or irritation. How It Feels: It gives an immediate burst of hydration that makes fine lines look instantly softer. Over time, it deeply nourishes without clogging pores or feeling heavy on mature skin. The 60-Day Transformation: After two solid months of twice-daily use, the change in my skin’s firmness and texture is remarkable. Expression lines around my eyes and mouth look softer, my skin feels significantly bouncier and firmer, and the overall tone looks bright and renewed. The Verdict: Olay has truly perfected their formulas over the years. This MAX serum delivers real, dramatic anti-aging results for 60+ skin as tested on myself for 60 days, without needing a high-end department store price tag. A total mainstay in my routine! 💯

I typically use Aveeno body wash but wanted to try something new. I think the word "serum" got me as it sounded like it was going to really hydrate my skin. I think using the word "serum" is abit far fetched. It's just another typical body wash in a creamy format. I did give it a smell in Target before i bought it and liked the smell but when I used it in the shower it was just too overwhelming. For the price i won't repurchase as it’s nothing special IMO.

my favorite day to day body wash. super hydrating with a refreshing scent. lathers well for shaving and is affordable. doesn't leave a film. just wish the larger bottle had a pump, but the squeeze works well too.

I bought a 3 pk of Olay Body Wash at Costco. Olay has a solid reputation but wanted to see for myself. The bottles were 23.6 oz with Collegen Peptide, moisturizers and Shea Butter. The smell is very clean and refreshing. When you use it, it gives you the nicest smoothest feel. I love it! I highly recommend.

Olay's hydrating and moisturizing body wash line is great. Normally I use the Olay Ultra Moisture Body Wash Shea Butter but right now I'm trying the Ultra Moisture Hydrant bodywash, which is also good for dry, sensitive skin.

I love this stuff because it’s perfect for days I don’t want to layer extra product with my spf. Also, the entire super serum line has a fragrance that I absolutely love. This jar is also a lot of product. It’s lasted me quite a long time.

Such a fun scent and a great price. Feels hydrating and doesn't strip my skin. I wish the scent stuck around more but cant complain too much at this price and can basically find Olay at any store you go to

Good value for money, but hate all of the smells. They smell very cheap and low quality to me. It works, I just don’t love the feeling of the soap or the smell. Have tried a few different products and occasionally will find a smell that I don’t mind.

I don’t normally purchase their skimcare products (only used the hair line a few times, but I received the moisturizer as a gift and it’s alright. it’s very lightweight and the packaging is cool. the SPF is quite low tho

Olay makes top-quality skin care products. I use their face lotion daily and find it is a clean, non-greasy lotion that moisturizes my skin well. I also find the Olay face scrubs are gentle enough to use daily yet strong enough to help battle skin issues like acne and excess oil.

I’ve been trying different Olay fave products to see what’s best for me. They’re very creamy and moisturizing. They feel great on my face and even come in travel sizes. They left my face feeling really soft and the scent is pleasant but light.

OLAY Eyes Ultimate Eye Cream is an excellent product which covers up wrinkles and pores near your eyes. It has never irritated my eyes and it blends well for a natural look. There are some Olay products that I don’t think so highly of due to ingredients I find unhealthy for body skin, but this one really marks off all the boxes for my menopausal eyes!


I really like all of Olay’s body washes that I’ve tried. They all smell amazing and the consistency is super nice. Easy to lather and has a bit of that “milky” consistency that feels really rich, if you get what I mean.

A quiet powerhouse. Olay’s newer lines, especially the Regenerist collection, have impressed me. I love that they’re making high-performing formulas accessible without boutique pricing. The fragrance is a bit much in some products for my liking, but the texture and feel are luxurious. A great example of a legacy brand staying relevant.

In my experience Olay products are just too heavily scented for my liking. The body wash I tried smelled floral and did do a decent job cleaning my skin. I like gentler body products and found unscented options that work better. I gave my bottle away that I was gifted from a family member and won't be using this product again. I'm sure teens or women who aren't sensitive to fragrance would enjoy this though.

I have tried many Olay products over the years. They are readily available and a decent price point. It is definitely a staple drugstore brand. I really like their make up cleansing wipes. I have sensitive skin and have zero issues with these wipes.
