   I bought this to use as a morning serum to supplement my nightly Timeless Serum (which is absolutely fantastic).
   I have been using it for weeks and I really don’t think it does anything other than act as a primer. It feels just like a silicone primer on the skin.
   That’s it.
   On the up-side there does not appear to be anything irritating in it.
   On the down-side it is an expensive basic silicone primer!

   Seemed great at first… Moisturising and made my skin feel smooth and soft, but after a few days, it made my dark spots even darker and the lines on my face appeared deeper. It also left a bit of redness… Something in this is really not good for my skin. I feel like it’s just darkened the already darker areas of my face.

   The packaging is not too nice. It would have looked better on a glass pump bottle. The price is reasonable being part of the Total Effects line. The product itself applies evenly and has a runny consistency. It finishes to a supple effect and absorbs quickly into the skin. Overall, it is a good product plus I got this on sale!

   I bought this olay total effects 7-in-1 anti aging serum after reading all the reviews here. i must say im glad i did because it’s such a pleasant using it. it makes my face more supple and moist and i can use it under my makeup too. i’d say this works well as a daily moisturizer. i love it. repurchasing it for sure.

   Hi all,
   Two days ago i bought this olay total effect 7 in one anti ageing serum and tried twice a day. First application, i didnt feel a thing, not smoothing nor moisturizing my skin, but when i applied it in the morning as a primer and also used my olay spf24 face lotion and ultima II pressed powder i felt it worked better that my powder stayed longer on my combination skin. The second night i applied it about 3 times its pump, i wonder maybe i used more than it should be? Because this morning when i woke up i jumped rightly in front of mirror and saw my face well it was kinda make my pores and wrinkles more noticeable and more oily but also like cracked and dried at the same time. I also felt a bit itchy and like my face not as smooth as before (or it was just my false feeling idk ). I am 29 and never used serum before except vit c serum. I dont know if i will buy it again but ithink im gonna try it for a week and see the result, but with my reaction maybe anyone can tell me if i should continue using it or not because honestly i get bit scare with my skin reaction to it, is it just temporary as the formula try to repair my skin or is it an allergic reaction to it? I believe that my skin not a sensitif one, so…..help me out please 😉

   okay, here’s it.
   the reason why everyone’s breaking out from this is because it isn’t relaly suitable as a skincare product for anyone with combination to oily skin types.

   it has such high levels of silicone! HOWEVER, it is a PERFECT FACE PRIMER for those with combination to oily skin types.

   You cleanse your skin, then use this to prep the face, followed by sunblock and then foundation. You’d love how the skin feels even after putting on heavy coverage foundation! I’ve used this for runway shows and it’s a fantastic product to have.
   I have broken out just by including this in my skincare routine but once i switched to using a small amount in the morning before foundation application, my skin was back to normal.

   Ladies with combination and oily skin, there’s no need for moisturizers. really. just use an essence or a serum after cleansing the face and then proactiv treatment lotion to prevent breakouts. i’ve been on accutane before, and this skincare regiment has helped me maintain clear skin even without it 🙂

   I so wanted this to be good. I wanted it to be my back up, in case I ever lost the good fortune I have to be able to afford Estee Lauders Night Repair.

   But first of all, I cannot stand the smell. I can’t tell you why, as I am sure it’s a perfectly nice smell for most people, but for me it hits a spot. I hate it and it is so strong that I can’t even wear it on my neck or chest without getting a headache.

   Second, it makes me break out. It feels almost dirty going on my skin, and the next day I am always covered in tiny, itchy, red pimples. This has happened every time I’ve tried it on my face.

   I’ve taken to using it on my hands, were it feels nice and soft and the smell doesn’t bother me as much.

   Quite pleased with this product. It’s advertised as a moisturiser, and it does that to some extent, but I think it’s primarily a compound to make skin FEEL soft.

   I use it in combination with Olay Total Effects moisturiser. The moisturiser is sufficient on its own, but I’ve found just a tiny amount of this gives an enhanced moisturising and softening effect around eyes, nose and mouth. Makes those areas feel luxurious.

   A bit pricey, but it was recently on sale at 2-for-1, so I bought several (hopefully enough to last until the next 2-for-1 sale!).

    I’m 56 and, due to oily skin, have few wrinkles except under the eyes. But that same oily skin gave me large pores. There are also spots from sun damage and some bumps.

    I’ve been using this serum alone or under my moisturizer for about a month and have noticed my skin looking brighter. The pores aren’t as noticable, the spots seem to be lighter and the bumps look like they are lessening.

    I wish the packaging wasn’t so excessive.
