Good Housekeeping Institute Study Proves Olay Outperforms 10 Top Prestige Creams

An independent test by the Good Housekeeping Institute showed that Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream outperforms 10 top prestige creams, including one with a $440 price tag. Olay, a trusted leader in skincare worldwide, believes that women don’t need to spend prestige prices to achieve younger-looking skin.

The Good Housekeeping Institute’s Beauty Lab conducted clinical and blinded consumer studies, where scientists collected more than 10,000 hydration measurements and Olay rose to the top.

  1. FAST-ACTING: At the three-hour mark, Olay moisturized 400% better than a cream nearly 18 times its price and beat all other products tested.
  2. LONG-LASTING HYDRATION: Olay increased moisture by 50% on average over a 24-hour period.
  3. LIGHTWEIGHT TEXTURE: In blind comparisons, consumers preferred Olay 80% of the time over expensive creams, reporting that it felt "rich" without being heavy.
  4. FIRMING & PLUMPING INGREDIENTS: Formulated with powerhouse ingredients like niacinamide and hyaluronic acid, Olay improved skin's texture by 10% in four weeks.*

These newest findings underpin Olay’s commitment to bringing visible anti-aging results to women without premium prices. This is more significant today than ever before, as recent Olay study with 155,000 women showed that 80% of skin’s anti-aging destiny is within women’s control and not related to genes. Instead of spending hundreds of dollars on prestige creams that over-promise and under-deliver, women can now turn to Olay for the best possible skin care, at a fraction of the cost.

“Women are frustrated with spending too much money at department and specialty stores on skin care products that aren’t working,” says Stephanie Robertson, Olay Brand Director. “Olay creates products that help women achieve visibly beautiful and healthy skin. With Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream, we’re proud to do it all for less than $30 a jar.”

New Olay Regenerist, along with re-engineered Luminous and Total Effects products are available at local retailers nationwide.
