Skincare Review, Ingredients: Olay Clean Skin 1-2-3 Acne Solution System, Scrub, Mattifier, Spot Treatment

I am all about sun protection all year long, so I was very eager to try this product. I tried both the regular and fragrance free versions, which I used for several days under foundation and blush. True to its name, the product is indeed featherweight; it went on easily and absorbed quickly. As for the seven claims, I found some, though not all, to be true. It did even out my skin tone, enhance brightness, minimize the look of pores, and hydrate my skin. But I did not see any significant difference in terms of fine lines, wrinkles, dark patches or firmness. I do wish it had contained SPF 30 as well, the general recommendation for adequate sun protection. Although signs of all benefits would have been ideal, overall I liked the product—and the price—very much.
