REGENERIST
Look for products in the Olay Regenerist Collection that use Skin Energizing Technology
to accelerate the appearance of anti-aging results. Similar to your body’s metabolism, your skin’s surface cell energy declines as you age—making it less receptive to anti-aging ingredients.
REGENERIST LUMINOUS
The Regenerist Luminous Collection uses a Skin Brightening Complex to address the appearance of hyperpigmentation that clouds your skin’s natural luminosity.
Natural Pearls reflect light at different angles absorbing it layer-by-layer for a 3D effect that radiates energy and luminosity.
Healthy, luminous skin has a translucent, even texture that, like a pearl, absorbs light layer-by-layer for a natural glow from within.
FRESH EFFECTS
Fresh Effects, Olay’s instant rise-and-shine for your face, energizes skin with a boost of natural ingredients like honeysuckle and white tea, helping to achieve a fresh-faced ready look without the beauty sleep.
Even when you’re in a hurry: Fresh Effects Dewy Gel instantly moisturizes the skin and absorbs oil with its hint of powder. Plus, it offers a burst of cool and 24 hours of hydration. Skin is left feeling awakened and revitalized.
Instant beauty sleep. No sleep required.
