One customer wrote she uses it as a MAKEUP PRIMER, too! Love the REGENERIST line. This product was a great value, and works beautifully. Use AM and PM daily, and get so many compliments on my skin. I sometimes use in combo with REGENERIST Micro-Sculpting Cream. Then at night I add other items from regime: Alpha Hydrox 12% Souffle OR Alpha Hydrox 14% Serum PLUS Alpha Hydrox Retinol (Vit. A, fabulous) OR Kiehls’ Vitamin C. My skin has a nearly glass-y texture in the morning. (Use sunscreen during day. AVOID prolonged exposure to sun if using Alpha Hydrox AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) products.

I had been using the previous formula since at least 2012. I have sensitive, oily, acne-prone skin and this serum provided the perfect amount of moisture without causing reactions or acne. While the new formula does not cause reactions, it makes my skin too shiny and I have about a dozen small whiteheads all over my face (an issue I’ve never had as my issue is cystic acne). I’m very disappointed as I feel like I now have to start all over to find a serum and waste a lot of money to find something new.
I have used this wonderful moisturizer for years and never had a complaint. I have recommended it to friends as it was light, did not irritate my sensitive skin, was non-greasy, did not cause break-outs, didn’t have a strong scent and worked very well under make-up. HOWEVER, they have gone and changed the formula and what you get is not the bottle pictured. It is now super greasy and scented and putting make-up on top of this this morning was almost impossible. If I were more vain, I would have been sending my husband on an emergency run to the drug store, but I just hate to pay drug store prices after so many years of subscribe and save on Amazon. I did my best with it and headed out for the day. Thankfully I only had to be out in public for the morning because this afternoon my foundation is so patchy and looks like it flaking off, while still looking super greasy. I am not impressed at all. I didn’t think to keep the packaging to return it. I just put it in the cabinet straight out of the box when my subscribe and save shipment gets here, so I can’t return it. It doesn’t seem to be irritating my skin or clogging my pores in these short few hours I’ve worn it. I’ll keep it and use it for emergencies if my night cream runs short or something. Not impressed, Olay. Not impressed. I see a lot of other people having the same issues. If you find the perfect replacement, please let me know.
