Ingredients
Olay skin care products are dermatologist tested and non-comedogenic. The ingredients are safe and clinically proven. The active ingredient used the acne treatment products by Olay is Salicylic acid.
Salicylic acid: This substance is one of the most effective blemish-preventing ingredients. It is known to slow down the over-shedding of cells which combine with excess oil to clog the pores of the skin. Salicylic acid thus helps in speed healing of acne and thus prevents the formation of blackheads and whiteheads.
Website
Olay’s website has an elegant and stylish look. Our acne review team really liked the black and golden color combination. The website is divided into several well labeled sections and tabs. In the left hand side of the website you will find sections like ‘Products’, ‘Discover Olay’, ‘Skin care’, ‘What’s new’, ‘Club Olay’, ‘Olay for you’, ‘Olay para ti’, and ‘Olay promise’. For those who need extra navigation help, there is the ‘sitemap’ at the bottom of the homepage.

Olay also makes it very easy for you to choose your product according to the specific problem and skin type. Olay products can be easily bought from the several online retailers.
Cons
Our acne review team didn’t find any actual success stories or testimonials in the Olay website. There are also no real clinical evidences available to support the anti-aging claims made about their line of skin care products.
We also noticed that many of the ingredients incorporated into the ‘Definity Olay treatments’, include potentially irritating paraben preservatives, which some people may not like.
Tricks
Check out the ‘sample and offers’ section of the website to look for the product samples and discounts on offer. This would help you in getting a better deal.
