There are many anti-aging products on the market and Olay line has one of the most economical anti-aging products which have good reputation. So, I asked my 47 year old uncle to give review of Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream since his using it (to see if it actually works!). I can’t possibly see any difference if I use this product since I don’t have wrinkles. :P

My Uncle’s Impression
The first time he used it, he said he felt some tingling sensation all over his face. Wow. I had never felt that. He has a combination skin and the product moisturizes his face well. Both he and I could see a difference in a month. In two months, his deep wrinkles toned down and fine lines disappeared. Wow this product actually works. The effect can be seen in 2 weeks as said in the description. He’s been using for 3 months and he looks 5 years younger. His skin is a little firmer and he looks as if he had a face lift. He never had acne and this product did not break him out despite the highly comodegenic ingredient. He’s really happy to use this product and he would definitely purchase it again.
