   Another Niacinamide laden product from Olay. Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) is about the only ingredient, next to Acetyl Glucosamine (found in their Luminous collection, used to called Definity) that Olay will utilise in their skin care collections. From their most cheapest sub brand Classics to Total Effects and so on, you will find nothing but one active ingredient, Niacinamide,

   Niacinamide is famous for being a multi-functional ingredient, it can help with pore size, pigmentation, decrease inflammation in skin and boost skin’s own immunity. This SPF 30+ (love the high SPF factor) sunscreen has the texture and feel of a traditional cream or moisturiser so don’t be put off by it’s SPF factor. It has a satin smooth finish those with normal to dry and even combination skin’s could appreciate.

   The pump dispenser is handy and easy to use. Overall effective cream, stable formula, great packaging and wonderful pleasing texture. I will not be repurchasing because I want a cream that delivers more than one active ingredient. I now solely use Paula’s Choice Skin Balancing SPF 30+ moisturiser as my day cream.

   I bought this as a sunscreen to wear under my foundation on my walk to work. I have not been disappointed. I use CeraVe sunscreen for running and wanted something a bit lighter for work. I’m 42 and look half my age and I attribute good skin care which I will continue.

   Moisturizing without being too heavy.
   This cream did not take long to sink into my skin and worked fairly well under foundation.
   I like that it offered lightweight moisture and SPF 30 protection.
   It does not feel heavy on the skin like most SPF can and did not smell like sunblock.
   However, it did have a slightly perfumed scent but this did not linger on my face after applying my makeup.
   I really liked that I felt like my skin could still breathe.
   I did get slightly shiny about midday which is not unusual for me with oily skin but nothing extremely bad at all, a quick touch up with powder or blotting tissue and I was good to go. Normally when I use any type of SPF on my face it just feels heavy, I get very greasy, and my makeup tends to wear off quickly.
   My makeup lasts a decent amount of time but I do notice significant smudging of my mascara, eyeliners, and some slipping my of foundation when I use this.
   After continued use, I did not notice any improvement in my skin and I actually think this brand irritates the skin under my eyes somewhat because it always looks worse when I switch to their products.
   It also did cause more breakouts than usual so I am not going to repurchase.

   The ingredient list is what made me choose to try this product.
   It contains Amino-Peptides, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 (Matrixyl), Niacinamide, Vitamin E, and hyaluronic acid.
