Skin Texture and Moisturization

Pros:

  • "It is very silky and not greasy, and has a light pleasant scent."
  • "This is a great moisturizer for sensitive skin that evens skin tone and lightens dark spots."
  • "The way it feels is creamy, light weight, and gives a light dewy look."
  • "I've had no issues with this absorbing and it makes my skin feel super soft."
  • "A little goes a long way because it has a silky texture like a luxurious cream."
  • "Noticeably more moisturizing than any other Olay product I’ve used."
  • "It absorbed quickly into my skin which was great for the days I choose to apply makeup over it."

Cons:

  • "This product made my skin very raw and red."
  • "Also, my hands and face are left feeling mildly sticky after using it, which is super unpleasant."
  • "Cream leaves white peel after application."
  • "a few hrs after i put it on it became white and kind of flaked off the scent is to strong and why is it peach colored tossed it in the trash!"
  • "No matter how thinly I apply this to my face at night, it leaves my face so STICKY."
  • "It feels nice and soft when applied, but it doesn't absorb into the skin as other creams, so it shows as white gooey areas on the skin."
  • "It can sometimes (not always) leave white residue on my face after applying it."

Scent and Packaging

Pros:

  • "It smells nice, and is packaged nicely."
  • "I also love that Luminous has a mild scent unlike other creams."
  • "The formula is silky with a very pleasant scent."
  • "Smells nice - not strong."
  • "The scent is great and the texture of the cream is great!"
  • "I love the scent and price point of this product."
  • "The smell is very subtle and disappears once completely absorbed in ones skin."

Cons:

  • "This product has a strong smell, similar to Pert Plus shampoo. It’s also mealy, not good for under make up or with other lotion or serums because it beads up."
  • "The smell is quite strong, too strong for me personally."
  • "If you do not like a heavy, very flowery smell on your face then do NOT buy this product."
  • "The cream smells very intense, I could not bring myself to use it more than once."
  • "The smell of this moisturizer reminds me of shampoo - not unpleasant but it's not what I would associate with something I put on my face."
  • "I usually like Oil of Olay products, but Olay Luminous has such a strong fragrance I can barely stand to use it."
  • "I do not understand the constant need to add fragrance to the majority of products."

Effectiveness and Results

Pros:

  • "I am hooked on this product. I have extremely dry, dark skin with acne scars and this creme helps even my tone and fade the spots."
  • "I will definitely purchase this and use this product again."
  • "I've been using Dark Spot Corrector by Olay for over 4 years and uneven skin tone and light age spots appear corrected."
  • "I applied a nice thin layer twice a day and found that it did even the texture of my skin and fade dark spots a bit."
  • "I'm on my 3rd jar in 5 months. It works!"
  • "I realized that my blemishes were faded to a tolerable point that I felt comfortable going out with a naked face."
  • "Using this entire system has significantly improved my skin tone and faded my dark marks."

Cons:

  • "I used Olay and this product doesn't work as it states. I feel the description is misleading."
  • "I tried it over a month now and see no difference."
  • "I haven't noticed any changes and have almost used the entire jar."
  • "My dark spots are still very visible."
  • "My spots looked darker and there were more of them."
  • "I have only been using it for one week and haven't notice a huge change, but my blemishes seem to be fading slowly."
  • "I have a sunspot on my cheek that I have been trying to reduce or lighten... I apply it twice a day, with extra attention to my actual sunspot, and a few months later, there is no change."
