I’m a sucker for tv ads – for me, they are the best form of advertisements. I always fall for some new product or another! And the Olay Total Effects body wash is no different.
I’d used Olay Total Effects for my face but when they put the thought in my head about “anti-aging” for the body, it made me think of just how little care I take of the skin on my body. Well time to remedy that with a little trip to Guardian pharmacy! 😀 I picked up the Olay Total Effects body wash in Extra Moisturizing for roughly RM19.90 for 583ml. There are 3 versions – Moisturizing, Extra Nourishing and Ultra Nourishing. Mine is Extra Nourishing because I thought I needed it.
The body wash squeezes out like a mousse but when I spread it, it has a very smooth creamy feel. I don’t use a bath lily or puff (I don’t like it) so I just use my hands. For a body wash with body butter in it, I thought my skin might feel greasy after the shower or maybe be a little bit oily – body butter after all! But nope. It washes off clean as a whistle. My skin does not feel dry after that, but lets face it friends, it does not exactly feel super moisturized either. After about 2 weeks daily use, I find that my skin is a touch less scaly looking so I reckon it has helped but you still need to top up with body lotion to get really smooth skin.
