well long time favorite and drugstore
brand olay skin has released
three new serums a peptide serum a
vitamin c serum and a hyaluronic acid
serum but do they really work and
can they really compete with luxury
high-end brands
well i'm going to give you my no-fluff
answers in this video
well hey everybody welcome back to
skincare with chris gibson if you're not
familiar with me i'm chris i'm a
skincare expert and i'm here to help you
find skin care products that will work
for you not empty your wallet
and not do more harm than good so if
that's your thing hit that subscription
button and that little notification bell
so that you know when my new videos are
up each week okay so i'm all about
spending less money on good products and
i'm
always on the lookout for exceptional
skincare products that work
without costing a fortune and if you've
followed me for any length of time
you know that i'm all about ingredients
and their effectiveness over brandon
price so when olay released these three
serums you know i had to check them out
now olay skin insist or at least their
marketing department does
that these products are very much
formulated like the
end luxury brands that we spend tons of
money on and there are three of these
the wrinkle corrective serum which is a
formulation
of peptides along with niacinamide
and then there is a deep hydration serum
which is hyaluronic acid
in niacinamide and then of course their
tone perfection serum which is vitamin c
also paired with niacinamide now as you
can tell
niacinamide is a key ingredient in all
three of these serums and it's not
surprising because niacinamide is the
skincare ingredient of this year
now if you're not familiar with
niacinamide and what it does as a skin
care ingredient for the skin
you probably want to be there is a
reason why it's so popular
the great thing about niacinamide which
is a derivative of vitamin b3 or niacin
where it gets its name is that it is
able to reduce
redness and inflammation in the skin
help clear and minimize poor congestion
it also helps improve skin tone and
strengthens
the skin's moisture barrier so really it
truly is
a skin care super ingredient plus it's
well tolerated by all skin types however
if you have dry skin
you want to check formulations on
niacinamide products to make sure
they don't include zinc because zinc is
very drying and if you have dry skin
it will make that problem worse but
niacinamide alone
is a great hydration booster so looking
at the ingredients in these three serums
which
is what i'm known for doing i was really
pleasantly surprised they are basically
clean
serums i'll give you that right off the
bat and i was really most excited about
the wrinkle correction serum because
it is the one with peptides and peptides
are so important to your skin it is like
the number one anti-aging ingredient out
there and the reason for that is
is that peptides are actually amino
acids or chains of amino acids
that your skin actually produces already
but as we get older especially after 20
we produce less and less of them and our
skin begins to sag and it gets soft and
gets wrinkles
and these amino acids help spark
collagen production so they actually go
in the skin accepts them
and they turn on skin cells or they
message your skin cells
to begin producing more collagen elastin
in keratin you know the stuff that keeps
our skin supple and tight and wrinkle
free something that we all want
now my experience with this serum has
been exceptionally good it absorbs well
and it has led
to much plumper firmer skin for me
personally i've been using it every day
and it really does behave
on your skin much like the luxury brands
this formulation has no
oil alcohol or fragrance so
kudos to olay skin for having a clean
formula that is
very very skin benefit driven now there
are two other serums in this collection
to be excited about
the first of which is the tone
perfecting serum which is basically
their vitamin c serum now in this
formulation they are using sodium
ascorbal phosphate rather than
l-ascorbic acid
and the only real difference is that the
sodium ascorbyl phosphate
is milder and much more stable than
l-ascorbic acid so in other words it
doesn't destabilize and break down
quite as quickly so it gives the same
skin benefits
but it adds more value to the
formulation as far as longevity and it
breaking down and not working well for
you anymore they pair that with
niacinamide which we just went over all
the benefits of niacinamide so you have
a super hydrating
vitamin c serum again these serums are
all
under 30 bucks so it's really amazing
that their formulations
are this clean and this potent and cost
so little
now the next serum that they have in
this series is the deep hydration
serum they call it drench and quench
which is kind of cute i guess
but basically they've taken hyaluronic
acid
and they've paired it with niacinamide
again without the zinc
so you have a very hydrating serum so if
you have really dry skin
or very sensitive skin this is a serum
for you again
under 30 bucks it's a high grade
hyaluronic acid along with niacinamide
that are going to provide
extremely good benefits for all skin
types and it's formulated so well it's
actually good for sunburn skin
so if you're looking for some really
well formulated serums
that will work and won't break the bank
this product line is a
very good choice now i hope that this
video will help you decide if any of
these new olay serums are a good fit for
your skincare routine and if you do find
it helpful
please give it a thumbs up and also be
sure and let me know if you try any of
the products and how they work for you i
