Olay has recently launched its new range of Olay AquAction products with HydraLock Technology which redefines hydration. The latest innovation in hydration care guarantees you “Pump Pump Bouncy Skin” with 2 power ingredients. The first ingredient, WSK, is an ingredient from the white jelly leaf which was part of Yang Guifei’s beauty regimen. WSK has been proven to outperform hyaluronic acid which was thought to be the gold standard hydrating ingredient. Another ingredient, Niacinamide, addresses skin fatigue by giving skin the energy to renew itself and to hold onto its moisture more effectively.

With these two very promising hydrating ingredients in the Olay AquAction Long Lasting Hydration Gel ($24.90), I put this product to the test. Upon application, I noticed that the gel has a non-greasy and very lightweight texture which I totally approve of. It also has a very pleasant smell which is not at all overwhelming. The hydration gel has a very watery consistency, and is absorbed by the skin in a matter of seconds which makes putting on my makeup immediately after that possible.

My skin has become very dry, probably due to hormonal changes during pregnancy. I have been using the Olay AquAction Long Lasting Hydration Gel for a week and the results are good. This product enhances the moisture level of my dry skin by continuously moisturizing and locking in water for up to 24 hours. I feel that it makes my skin supple and smooth over time. I used to have dry patches of skin under the sides of my nose and at the corners of my mouth but I don’t have this problem anymore. Olay AquAction range is available from November 2013 in Watsons and Guardian.
