Total Effects Tone Correcting Face Moisturizer with Sunscreen SPF 15, Light to Medium 1.7 Ounces

When you open the bottle and start to use it, the first few pumps are kind of anemic - literally! Lighter than usual, a little oilier-feeling than usual. But I had read other reviews that insisted that after about 5-6 pumps, it got better, so I persisted. They were right! Within a week, the one-pump amount in my hand was the perfect shade and had a smooth, creamy texture. I pump some onto my palm and use a finger of my other hand to sort of mix it around before putting it on my face. I don't like applying it with a sponge, as some have suggested - I use my middle and ring fingers to spread it on. I rub it in gently, like I would moisturizer, rather than patting it on, like I would with foundation, and have been pleased with the results. If you follow it up with a heavier powder (like a mineral powder), it makes your skin looks flawless, but if you don't spread the Olay product around evenly, then the powder can look cakey. I've moved to a translucent powder, and that enhances the Olay cream's effects without looking too made-up. Okay, so it's pretty good as a foundation. It doesn't hide every spot or every line unless you really slather it on. BUT...in two weeks, my skin looked firmer and the tone looked more even (I have some hyperpigmentation across my cheeks and nose from various medication, and that gives me fits). Within six weeks, I started wishing I had taken "before" pictures so I could post "before" and "after" -- the hyperpigmentation has been reduced by about 50%, my pores are smaller, the fine lines that were threatening imminence are gone, even when I'm not wearing the product! I get compliments about my complexion now ("You look GREAT! Your face is so bright and smooth!"). Like I said, I had to change some of my other makeup to better complement the CC cream, but it's been worth it. I bought my first bottle in July and just ran out of it last week -- it doesn't take much; plus there are days I go without makeup now because I'm no longer self-conscious about my skin, so that makes it last longer, too. I've been a loyal Olay user since I was 30 (almost 15 years ago), and I credit regular use of their products and careful, limited sun exposure for my young-looking skin. People mentally group me in with the 25-to-34 age bracket and ask me what my secret is when they find out my real age. This CC cream is a great addition to my skin care regimen AND my makeup bag (I love being able to combine products!).

This is a good product...goes on smoothly, blends well and the 15 percent sunscreen works all day long. One criticism is the shape of the container. It is narrow and has fallen on my sink at least one thousand times. How about a little flare at the bottom. Wins most annoying design ever award.

I love it used it for years then couldn't find it in stores. Amazon saved the day

This is great!! I love olay products because they have great ingredients that have a lot of extra benefits for your skin. It has a nice light consistency that applies to the face and blends in easily. Makes my skin feel very soft and gives a light coverage! The only downside I have is my face can tend to run a bit oily after having makeup on all day so it does make my face a bit greasy. But nothing a little powder won’t fix. Other than that I highly reccomend!

So smooth and so invisible and yet it covers so well

Feels very light on skin and blends well with your natural skin tone.

Feels smooth and does hydrate my skin. I ordered Fair/Medium but it turned a dark medium on my face. Color not accurate.

My mother in law loves this product. I gave it to her for Christmas she let me borrow it. It made my skin so very smooth and absorbed well into my face. It did not irritate my skin and had the perfect amount of spf. Great deal and great product!

Primera vez que los compro y quede enamorada mi piel es mixta y no me queda grasoso si se ve como da una sensación de una piel mas joven

Love this product. Goes on smoothly, leaves my skin looking and feeling fresh. Nice for mature skin.

I don't have a lot to compare this with but it appears to spread nicely and gives smooth more minimal coverage which is what I want.

Muy buen producto, libre de parabenos, humectante y se adapta a la piel

One of my favourites , to put on first before make up or just put on for natural look . Happy with product, on my second bottle.
