Claims:
Pro-X Wrinkle Smoothing Cream is designed and professionally tested to smooth uneven textures with moisture, combating the look of fine lines and wrinkles. Heavier texture compared to Hydra Firming Cream.
 
Review:
This moisturizer has a slightly heavier texture than the Olay Pro-X Hydra Firming Cream, and because of that those with dry to very dry skin will likely enjoy this product’s performance best, but don’t take that to mean this is the antiwrinkle moisturizer you’ve been waiting for. To Olay’s credit, their claims for this moisturizer are accurate: It smoothes the appearance of lines and wrinkles while improving skin’s texture. Those benefits are the beginning of any well-formulated moisturizer, and this one certainly qualifies. What holds it back from a better rating is the jar packaging. When you’re loading your moisturizer with peptides and also including antioxidants, you should know that consistent exposure to light and air isn’t going to keep these fragile ingredients around for long. A less expensive version of this product that comes in better packaging is Olay Regenerist Reversal Treatment Foam.
