Olay Total Effects Body Wash, 15.2 Ounce (Pack of 2)

This stuff is expensive, compared to what I would normally use.

And let me admit, I'm not a girl so perhaps that is part of the problem.

It did effectively remove grime and dirt after working in the garden. Its ability to remove dirty motor oil is mediocre (which is normal for this kind of product).

It did leave my skin feeling very well moisturized, and I was more comfortable throughout the day because of this aspect. I don't even know what soap I used before this (I buy what is cheapest, which varies), but cheaper soap does not leave my skin feeling as nice and moisturized. The effect lasts well into the day.

The fragrance is weak, which is a good thing because I don't want to smell like a strawberry pie or chapstick all day long.

All in all, this is clearly a high quality product that does a great job as both a soap and a moisturizer. I miss it (ran out). You get what you pay for, and if you are willing to pay extra for a high quality body wash: this one is the one I would recommend to you.

It doesn't strike me as an exceptional value, but it's substantially better than normal body wash.

I'm a long time user of Olay's "Age Defying" body wash product, so I thought I'd give the "Total Effects" a try. Total Effects comes out of the container more like a cream than a lotion, it's quite a bit stiffer in consistency than their other products. The only ingredient differences that I can see from the label are mineral oil and jojoba oil, I assume the mineral oil (3rd ingredient on the list) contributes to the texture. After washing with the product my skin does feel soft and moisturized, but not noticeably more than it is with the product I had been using. Not enough more to justify the fact that you get eight more ounces of product for about a dollar less with the "Age Defying" compared to "Total Effects".

Also. If we are trying to make our skin look younger with this product, WHY would we want to it's fragrance smell like an old lady? Because that's how the fragrance comes across to me. Quite powdery, kind of camphorish, with a tiny hint of an amber note. It smells very "grandma's perfume" to me. I much prefer the scents they've used in the "Age Defying" and in the Olay "Quench" body wash (and oh how I wish they would bring back the fragrance of the "Scented to Calm" body wash!!!!). I'm the sort of person that won't use a product if I don't really like the fragrance, even if it was miraculous, so I'll be sticking with my old product, both for price and fragrance.

Please see Edit below.

The three people who live in our one household all gave Olay Total Effects Body Wash a try so instead of just one person's opinion this review will have three.

Person #1 said he liked it very much. The aroma is not too powerful, even pleasant, and the thickness of it when it comes out of the bottle is good. He especially liked the way his skin felt after using it the first time and said that it felt even better after more uses.

Person #2 said he too liked the way it smelled but said he didn't really notice any difference in how his skin felt afterwards. It's possible that his skin wasn't dry and therefore there was less moisturizing benefit. But he didn't have any complaints--just didn't think he'd go out of his way to buy it for himself.

Person #3 only got to use it two times because #1 has absconded with it. She likes everything everyone else said they liked. The aroma is lightly fruity and she definitely felt a difference in how her skin felt afterwards. However, she found the jar a little difficult to open when her hands were already wet so she had to open the container before her hands got wet. Not a big deal, obviously.

Over all opinion is positive, especially for those who have problems with dry winter skin. Since both men and woman liked the way it smells, I think it's safe to say that the product will appeal to almost anyone, even those who are sensitive to highly perfumed products.

Edit: I apologize for having to change my review. Person #1 has had an allergic reaction to something in this product and had to discontinue use immediately. We do not know if it is something in the perfume or moisturizer or perhaps both. This product is probably not a good one for those with sensitive skin.

I tried a few Olay products in the past, but my skin didn't react too well to them. Therefore, I was a bit hesitant to try another of their products.

My skin is aging well and for some time I was able to just get away with washing and moisturizing with cocoa butter. However, I started to notice little blotches and a lack of luster to my skin tone.

I remembered reading an article about an actress who said that one of her few splurges are trips to the spa for body treatments. It reminded me that while I could use a good spa treatment, why not exfoliate with a cleanser at home? I used to use an exfoliating cleanser all the time, but I switched to Ivory bath soap because of its purity.

Well after trying the Olay Total Effects, I was overly impressed. Normally when you use a shower wash, your skin feels great until you dry off and there's no long that dewey, supple feel. However, this product kept my skin so soft and supple long after I had showered and dried off, that I was left stunned. My skin is so soft that I can't stop touching it. My boyfriend tries to get in on the action, but I tell him to leave me alone (LOL). Kidding. But this product truly works and, OH, it smells AMAZING.

As for the exfoliating, I will have to wait and see if my skin tone improves, but I have a feeling that I won't be disappointed :).
