Olay Total Effects Body Wash – Review & Giveaway

Ever since I was a little girl, mi abuela (my grandma) always told me to make sure I use moisturizer everyday and to protect my skin when I’m outdoors with sunscreen. She should know, her skin is phenomenal – so soft and young looking considering she is in her 70’s.

When I was a teenager, I caught my dad applying my mom’s Oil of Olay face lotion. I laughed because I told him that was for women. He stated it’s face moisturizer with hardly any scent so it’s perfect for men too – you should start using it too.

I thought I’m only 15, why should I?  But I took his advice (and my abuela’s advice too) and I’ve been an Olay user ever since.  I’m so happy I did because I’ve been told by numerous people that I look like I’m still in my twenties! Imagine that!  Those comments always make my day, especially when I’m feeling old and frumpy.

Since my skin tends to be very dry, especially in the winter, I’m always applying moisturizer so I buy a bottle of Olay every month.

A few weeks ago, MyBlogSpark contacted me to try out Olay’s new body wash, Olay Total Effects Deep Penetrating Moisture Wash.  I was immediately interested.  I had no idea that Olay  had a total effects line of body washes but I’m glad they do now. I’m in my thirties now so I don’t want to want my skin looking old and raggedy before its time.

So through MyBlogSpark, Olay sent me a full size bottle of the body wash and a body sponge to review.  I have to be honest and say my skin looks radiant, feels a lot smoother & so much more softer. The scent is intoxicating also.  I find myself smelling my arms constantly.  My husband even said he loves the the way it smells on me ;).

Olay has other body washes but this is their most advanced body wash.  Total Effects goes beyond cleansing to deeply moisturize and fight 7 signs of aging all over your body.

  • Improves elasticity
  • Relieves dryness
  • Deeply moisturizes
  • Brightens dull skin
  • Evens skin tone
  • Smoothes rough skin
  • Minimizes the appearance of dry lines

In only one day of showering, your skin feels smooth and soft.  After one week of using the body wash, your skin’s elasticity improves and after one month, your skin starts to look radiant and young.  You can’t go wrong.

Now onto the great news for you! THE GIVEAWAY! Olay, through MyBlogSpark, has provided one lucky New York Chica reader a $10 gift card to Walmart to purchase their very own Olay Total Effects Body Wash.

  1. I haven’t yet used Olay, although it has come highly recommended. I guess I’m just used to the products I use. I would like to try Olay products, though.

  32. I have tried Oil of Olay facial cleanser, soap bar and cold cream to remove my make up. I like that their products are gentle and smooth. I especially love the cold cream. I gently message it on my face and swipe it off w/ flat cotton pads or with a wash cloth then wash my face with the cleanser.
