Olay Nighttime Rinse-off Body Conditioner With Retinol, 8 Fl. Ounce, 6 count

Product Information

Since retinol can make your skin sensitive to UV rays, the best time of day to use these two products is in the evening. They are ideal for dry, normal, and combination/oily skin. Olay Retinol Body Wash Review I use this with a body moisturizer, and I also use it without a moisturizer. Both applications work well. I dedicated an entire post to this amazing ingredient: The Benefits of Adding Niacinamide to your Skincare Routine.

Olay Cleansing & Renewing Nighttime Body Wash With Retinol and Olay Nighttime Rinse-Off Body Conditioner with Retinol are formulated to replenish the skin’s moisture barrier overnight with ingredients found in Olay’s skincare products. However, I feel the same about my hair conditioner and yet I still use my hair conditioner despite the extra work. In reality, it’s all mind over matter! And in my opinion, it’s well worth the extra effort. Your skin will thank you later;) These Olay retinol products contain Olay’s Vitamin B3 Complex, retinol, and retinyl propionate to replenish skin while you sleep. Because I'm big on lotion, I still like to add an extra layer of lotion outside the shower after using this product, especially on very cold days. And while I doubt I'm going to create a full 10-step body-care routine, Olay's Rinse-Off Body Conditioner is definitely a necessary new step. For a drugstore brand, I think Olay does a great job with their facial skincare products, but it has been a while since I’ve tried their body skincare products.Unfortunately, the exfoliating powder wasn’t potent enough for a solid exfoliation and the kaolin clay body mask didn’t work for me at all.

Rich, hydrating ingredients like shea butter, grape seed oil, and glycerin fortify and hydrate the skin while 0.1% retinol combines with powerful antioxidants like Vitamin C to brighten, soften, and smooth your body. Other varieties in this line of body washes include Olay Cleansing & Brightening Body Wash, formulated with vitamin B3 and vitamin C, and Cleansing and Firming Body Wash, formulated with vitamin B3 and Collagen.POLYSORBATE 60, DMDM HYDANTOIN, PHENOXYETHANOL, DISODIUM EDTA, IODOPROPYNYL BUTYLCARBAMATE, TOCOPHERYL ACETATE WATER, PETROLATUM, HYDROXYPROPYL STARCH PHOSPHATE, DIMETHICONE, CETEARYL ALCOHOL, FRAGRANCE, NIACINAMIDE*, BUTYROSPERMUM PARKII (SHEA) BUTTER, Olay Rinse Off Body Conditioner Review Regarding the frequency and application of retinol body products, it is best to follow the manufacturer’s instructions. It is generally recommended to use retinol products at night since they can increase the skin’s sensitivity to sunlight. The Difference Between Retinol Body Creams and Body Lotions

It contains Olay’s Vitamin B3 Complex, retinol, and retinol propionate (a retinol ester that performs like retinol without many of the undesirable side effects such as redness and irritation).I let the lather linger for maybe more than 3 minutes before washing it off. Just like your regular hair conditioner, the coat felt rather slippery yet silky and suave. I honestly don’t love the slippery texture of the lather because it just takes more rubbing and washing. It does have a faint fragrance but I wouldn’t say it’s overpowering or lingering either. It eventually fades after rinsing and all that’s left is the usual smell of a washed body! But I really liked the body wash and was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked the body conditioner. So today, I’ll discuss several Olay products that I’ve added to my body skincare routine in this Olay Body skincare review. This body conditioner is similar to a body moisturizer with the main difference being, instead of using it after you shower, you use it during your shower. It’s a lot like a hair conditioner, except for your body.

Retinol Propionate is a retinol ester (retinol is attached to propionic acid). I love INCIDecoder’s funny analogy when describing this ingredient by comparing it to the royal family. When compared to retinol, it takes an extra conversion step to be active in the skin. Yet retinyl propionate can provide similar results to retinol, but with fewer side effects and irritation. It works well under hand creams, too, without piling, and boosts the look of my hands and manicure. I have seen this type of product before, and it was never something that I was interested in purchasing. Although I wasn’t convinced about not needing a moisturizer after a shower, I gave it a try. Vitamin B3 is also known as niacinamide. Niacinamide has so many benefits for the skin, from regulating oil production to anti-aging benefits. It supports a healthy skin barrier for better hydration. It also can also help lighten pigmentation and has anti-inflammatory properties. I really enjoy Olay’s facial care products and while I’ve tried their body washes in the past I didn’t know what to expect when it came to body exfoliators, conditioners, and masks.I’ve been reaching for it during the colder winter months on days when hand cream doesn’t do enough for the dry skin on my hands. You can straight away see the difference between using a moisturizer after you shower and a body conditioner during your shower. You get a much more intense moisturizing and hydration experience using a hydrating product like the body conditioner during your shower. There aren’t a lot of body exfoliators and masks available at drugstore prices, so I am happy to see body care products getting some exposure from a big brand like Olay.
