I bought this now outdated formula on sale at the Cosmetic Company Store, which by the way is the Estee Lauder outlet. I was reluctant to use it on my face because it is so rich, but as I ran out of the lotion and can't afford to by a new one, I have been using it daily and it is great. It's packed with lots of antioxidants, herbal extracts, and helps get rid of the forehead wrinkle I have. I prefer the lotion and can't wait to try the new Advanced Daywear. It's rich, has that great smell, spreads well and dries semi-matte, eases makeup application if you wear makeup.

This is the soap-free cleanser for oily skin that the mud cleanser is not. Same great scent, crisp, invigorating cucumber, highly concentrated--one pump will do ya, and leaves my face feeling SO smooth! Love it! Seems gentle too. It contains exotic herbal extracts, like all Estee's products, and I love that too.

A luxurious, foaming deep pore cleanser that treats you to a crisp, refreshing, invigorating aromatherapy experience while you cleanse. It is concentrated and lasted me at least 2 months. The only negative is that it is soap based and leaves a soapy type afterfeel and soap scum in the shower. But still, I love it! Everybody needs to try this who has oily skin and you will see what I mean.

I love this stuff. It's got powders suspended in it so it gives you long lasting matte. It also has herbal extracts of lotus and lemongrass and it gives you a fabulous aromatherapy experience. It also makes my skin feel firmer and look brighter. I can't recommend it highly enough. I much prefer it to proctive.

I read all about how EA created this junk 80 years ago, and how fabulous and curative it is. She was a horse lover and used it on her horses. One lady used it on a child's boo boo and in 8 hours it was all better, and EA was so moved she decided to name the product after this incident. It is a light orange ointment--thick, greasy, and heavy and it spreads poorly. From what I can tell, it is just petroleum jelly and aspirin (which is salicylic acid aka beta hydroxy acid), so it could easily be made at home for much less. Petrolatum is a heavy occlusive, meaning it blocks water loss, but does not add moisture, and salycilic acid is an exfoliant and clearer of pores.

These smell good, but they sting a little at first and didn't produce any results.

This is a nice cream, good quality, with that typical boghese scent--like pine and rosemary. It didn't produce any beauty results other than hydrating and smelling good, however.

I've used this for years. The smell is divine, like a true spa treatment, and the feeling of real mud. It is messy and stains towels, so be careful. It also stings a bit, and really produces a tightening like no other. It makes your skin look better. I recommend it.

I was really into this for a while. It is unscented. It moisturizes differently and leaves you with a nice hand feel in that you can open the bedroom door without your hands slipping, and drive the car without the same, but it feels kind of tight and yucky too, and I am now over it and almost never use it. Wouldn't buy again, since there are more luxurious, longer lasting things out there and they smell good.

Olay Total Effects 7-in-1 Advanced Anti Aging Body Wash - Deep Penetrating Moisture
Marketing trap for women
I got into Olay at one point and bought this. It's atypical in that it is like cold cream--a stiff creamy consistency that glides on okay, lathers a tiny bit, smells nice, and washes off pretty easily with no afterfeel. It leaves you feeling soft, which will appeal to women especially, and most especially to those with very dry, crocodile skin. I was afraid from how greasy it is, with the second ingredient being petroleum jelly, that I would break out, but I did nt. At $7 for a tiny bottle, I'd skip it. I think it's meant for ladies 65+. Can't say if it firms or reduces wrinkles as I dont have any.
