Olay Pore Minimizing CC Cream Review
Before anything else, I’d like to greet my lola Olive and dedicate this post for her. She’s my grandma and an absolute die-hard Olay fan. I got to know Olay because of her. When I was around 6 or 7 and went rummaging around her kikay kit, I remember using her Olay Beauty Lotion (the classic pink one in the bottle) and poured it all over my barbie’s hair to use as a make-believe conditioner. She used it everyday until now. She’s 84 years old and I think she looks beautiful for her age.
PRICE:
Olay Body Wash – PHP155.00Olay CC Cream – PHP999.00 (50g) / PHP499.00 (20g)Olay Toner – PHP849.00
When we received a box of goodies from Olay, she was estatic! She told me “Kaycee pag may Total Effects dyan, yung regular lang, akin na lang ha?” and I told her “Oo naman lola, ikaw na din ang mag-review ha kunan kita ng pictures!”
Alas, she was a bit disappointed because what I got was the latest product from Olay which is their Pore Minimizing CC Cream. Me? I’m excited! Haha! I get to keep and use the product for myself harharhar lalo na it’s a CC cream + Pore Minimizing Combo. But I want to make my lola happy so I told her “Lola bibili na lang kita ng Total Effects mo 🙂”
For those who aren’t familiar yet (meron pa kaya!) Here’s my post on What is CC Cream

OLAY PORE MINIMIZING CC CREAM REVIEW
Scent: Strong soapy floral. It smells just like your Olay Total Effects Moisturizer
Staying Power: If you don’t sweat or just stay in an airconditioned place it will last you the whole day. But on an active day, since this isn’t waterproof it will stay as long as your face doesn’t get wet.
Skin Benefits: From its name alone, it promises visibly smaller and tighter pores. Better paired with Olay’s Pore Minimizing Toner for maximum results. It also blurs out skin making it appear smoother and finer. Long term? It doesn’t clog our pores! I found an image on another beauty blogger from singapore that compared to other brands, Olay doesn’t stick to our faces and is easily removed with cleanser.

Left: Other Brand Right: Olay |
Coverage: 3/10 better use a concealer if you have pimples or scars
Glowiness: 8/10. Glowy galore! See photos. Need I explain more? It’s glowy but not shimmery.
Oil Control: 7/10. While it gives a nice glowy finish, it’s formulation surprisingly helps control unwanted sebum secretion. It’s probably because of it’s pore minimizing ingredients. Oil = bigger pores.
Will I buy again? A most definite YES.
Who do I recommend it to? I can actually recommend this to

Hi i enjoyed reading ur blogs to d point that ive tried some products u mentioned. Here are a few review of mine.
ishigaki plus: i like d result but a bit slow
glutawhite: i didnt see d result coz i only use it for 2 weeks
Ishigaki premium plus: i stopped coz i felt and i see that my skin begins to dark again
snowcaps: d best but hard to find. So if out of stock ill temporarily use ishigaki plus the ones priced at 580 at agelessbeauty. Good thing i found vidanutriscience i ordered snowcaps again and i love it, result is as fast as 1 to 2 weeks.

wow krizzia! and it's been so long! I like nivea's serum it has a very citrusy floral smell pero with regards to skin whitening, not so much. I don't like Nivea anymore.
kikaysikat
updated for you! and for everyone! you guys deserve honest feedback on products 🙂

Oh no. Maybe they do have stronger lighteners in there. Yun lang nga, tendency is to irritate the skin. I have friends and family who have tried this other brand of grocery-staple lightening lotion. Namamalat daw sila and nagda-dry ang skin. Matapang daw kasi ang formula.
Cнaii Hiмe- Ü
Can you please write a review about FrontRow's Luxxe White? Effective po kasi talaga siya. Took 1 bottle (60's caps) of it last summer and maganda naman siya sa akin. Pati yung mom and friend ko. Thank you.

But because it's expensive, I was worried that maybe It won't worth it. So i'm doing a research at the internet to see if it is really effective. So please Help me Ate, Let me know if it's really effective and how long will it take to see the results. Thank you. :*
