The Oil Of Olay PROx Challenge!

Okay Ladies and Gents!
My mother has told me that the Oil of Olay PROx collection has literally saved her sun scorched face. My sister has attested to the same thing. I have decided that I would take the challenge on myself. I will let everyone know whether I can see a product difference and if I think it is worth the money. This is for all you middle age moms out there that may or may not have the beginnings of age/sun damage. Let me tell you, the stuff was NOT inexpensive. But neither is a visit to a dermatologist. So I thought I would try this at home first. The do have a money back guarantee so why not? I believe all the things cost me about 150 dollars. Not exact on that. I did buy one kit at Sam's Club and will get a twenty dollar rebate from that but it will take two months....(same time it takes probably to run out of the stuff!) Also, mother says that if you call, they will send you a ten dollar coupon. I didn't do this either.
Tonight I started out with the exfoliating renewal cleanser just to get started. I wanted to have a nice clean face to do the microdermabrasion treatment. Wow...the cleaner worked well...had no smell..and the brush that you can buy to buff the cleanser in was easy to use and the head can pop off quite nicely to rinse. They even included the batteries!
Dermabrasion.....yup...this had a bite to it. Felt much like taking a handful of wetsand and "gently" grinding it into your face. I complained to my perfectly beautiful teenage daughter Brittany how much it "ouched" but secretly I was excited to grind off those dead cells and even out my skintone. Next I put on the peel activator serum. It did warm up and freak me out just a bit but I knew I needed that lactic acid to do the job. I rinsed with warm water. Dried my face with a washcloth and prepared myself for the next step.
I tried the deep wrinkle treatment around my "smile" line and where crows feet may form. Lucky me, I don't see wrinkles yet and most possibly don't even need this product yet but more is better right? lol. I want to make sure I don't look like a human "vagina" by the time I am 60.
After this I applied the discoloration fighting concentrate on my little age spot on my left cheek and my apples of my cheeks that look uneven. This is the entire reason I decided to start this system as this is really "buggy" to me and I don't want a huge age spot on my face someday. Especially one so huge that I can name it after deceased pets. This product better do the job for this especially or I will cry.
OK...these things being done, it was time to put the eye restoration complex around my eyes to keep them soft and supple. I think I may need the firming stuff too because I think my skin is thinning around my eyes but hey---can't afford all the stuff in one trip. Maybe they will throw in a freebee if I call and beg since I'm blogging this out for them.
Lastly, I put on the wrinkle smoothing cream. ooooohhh, lala...this made my face feel like someone was putting a nice cool bandaid on a slapped face after rubbing that sandy stuff in.
Now I'm done. I look in the mirror....What do i see? Well, can't see anything yet. My face is pinker from all the scrubbing but when I touch my face, it honestly feels like the silk I used to have around my baby blanket. I would just keep rubbing that silk and sucking my thumb. Maybe tonight I will touch my face and suck my thumb!
I need pics! I'm afraid to take them right now without my makeup on but i may change my mind to help all of womankind. After all, we all know we aren't "gorgeous" just crawling out of the shower, right? If you are, find another blog. This is for women that need help..haha.
So that is my first application. Oil of Olay has a handy dandy hotline to talk to a beauty professional to get advice for your age and problems. Tomorrow I will call them and see what all the hub-bub is about. Until then, I plan on doing the daily treatments and just the microdermabrasion peel twice a week! Talk to you in a few days!
