Various silicones mean this serum has an elegant, lightweight, silky texture best for normal to combination and oily skin. Like many of Olay's skincare products, this serum has skin-restoring niacinamide front and center, along with a variety of other antioxidants for environmental defense. In addition, you'll find skin-conditioning and skin-soothing ingredients; and true to its name, this formula is fragrance free (as all great skincare products should be).
As far as serums go, this is among the best options you'll find at the drugstore.

Olay At-A-Glance
Starting decades ago with the now-classic Oil of Olay, this brand now offers an extensive range of skin-care products sold at drugstores and mass-market stores. Today's Olay lineup for those concerned about staving off the effects of aging skin is impressive, comprising their Regenerist, Pro X, and Total Effects lines. All of these (and several other Olay products) contain the B vitamin niacinamide. As you might expect, the claims made for it are inflated, but niacinamide is a very helpful ingredient for all skin types, capable of exerting multiple benefits.
In fact, perhaps the biggest complaint about Olay is that there are a number of repetitive formulas within and between the sub-brands make this line confusing and tricky to shop! Still, there is a lot to like about this drugstore stalwart, with its main drawback being a few formulas containing fragrance or other ingredients that have the potential to cause irritation.
