Product Rave: Olay UV Fluid SPF15
I have been using the Olay complete care daily sensitive UV fluid for over a week now, usually I would wait longer until I rave about a product, but I feel certain this product is amazing so I wanted to declare that as soon as possible.
The reason why I switched to this is because my Elemis maximum moisture cream had ran out and I didn't fancy spending £35 on a day cream that didn't even have SPF. I had used the Olay Beauty Fluid in the past and really liked it, so the last time I was in Boots I decided to pick up the version with SPF, and am so glad that I did. Not only have I been loving it, but so has my husband. We can't get over how moisturising yet light it is all whilst protecting our face.
Once the cream has been rubbed in, it becomes invisible on your skin. It doesn't leave any sort of greasy or oily residue, it's pure matte and looks like your own skin. My skin feels like it has had a moisture drink and doesn't feel tight or dry at all. The normal beauty fluid didn't give me this much moisture, I would say the UV fluid gives you double the moisture whilst still being light.
Please note: SPF moisturisers can be quite tricky, as some of them tend to break me out, neither me or my husband have had a bad reaction to the UV fluid. Skincare is very personal, so what works for me may not work for you. Use at your own risk.
Price: £4.99 - 100ml

The fluid itself is white that becomes sheer once blended, it looks gloopy but it's actually a very light consistency. I would describe the scent as a subtle mix between baby lotion and sunscreen.

It's also a fantastic base for make up and friendly to your pocket. This product has been around for years and I am gutted I have just discovered it, what a slow coach!

I do find my personal HG sunscreen : one from Avene in the Cleanance range. It has a SPF 30, designed for acne-prone skin and comes with a handy pump that deliver the perfect amount of product. It smells great too which is a bonus.
I may review it soon :)

It doesn't give me breakouts and I have to have something with SPF in it. Plus it's super cheap! x
I tried just the ˝normal˝ fluid bit didn`t like it because It left sticky feeling on my face, do you have the same experience?
WOuld you maybe be so nice and write the ingredients of this UV fluid? I am tempted but would like to check the ingredients first;)
Have a great day!

So much so that I can't even fully describe how much I love it! LOL
I try all sorts of other things, but I come back to this one time and time again. It smells lovely, its a lovely smooth texture and is a great base for make up.
It's got something in it that's makes your skin glow. I want to say like a super, super sheer shimmer but its not even that. I can't explain it but I can't recommend it highly enough.
