The Hype

You don’t need to be a dermatologist to understand that sunscreen is one of the most effective anti-ageing products out there, but many are either too heavy, greasy or pore-clogging, or feel more lightweight but don't offer enough sun protection. Daily UV exposure is one of the largest culprits for skin damage – think fine lines, pigmentation and collagen depletion – but many skip this all-important step because of bad formulas. This new SPF50+ moisturiser from Olay is different. Rather than layering a moisturiser under a sunscreen (a process that can feel heavy on the skin), Olay's Regenerist Firm & Plump SPF+ combines broad-spectrum SPF50+ protection with hard-working skincare ingredients. A true hybrid, it delivers credible benefits beyond protection alone.

The Formula

At the heart of the formula are collagen peptides, which work within the skin to make it appear firmer, plumper and more hydrated. Meanwhile, added niacinamide – one of Olay's best-known skincare ingredients – strengthens the skin barrier, improves texture and boosts radiance. Finally, pro-vitamin B5 delivers long-lasting hydration that leaves the skin feeling comfortable all day long. An SPF that goes way beyond sun protection alone, it offers multiple skincare benefits in one step.

The Application

Even if science isn't your thing, this is where this SPF50+ moisturiser really stands out. Thanks to an ultra-lightweight texture that feels more like a moisturiser and invisible finish that carries zero white cast, Olay’s Regenerist Firm & Plump SPF+ fits in seamlessly with your everyday routine. For best results, apply it daily as your final skincare step before starting your make-up, using about a teaspoon’s worth to cover your face and neck. Thanks to the silky texture, it doubles up as a primer, creating a smooth canvas without any pilling or adding unnecessary weight. There's no greasy feeling or chalky residue – just skin that feels moisturised, protected and fresh.

The Verdict

At last I've found an SPF moisturiser that goes on smoothly and works!
I love this so much. It's made a huge difference to my skin texture and fine lines.
It feels lightweight, keeps my skin hydrated and layers well under make-up.
