The product

We don’t know about you, but with summer well on the way and a free pass to actually enjoy the outdoors, we’re not planning on dedicating too much of our time to lengthy skin care and makeup routines.

That’s why we’re equipping ourselves with multitasking products that knock out several steps in our beauty lineup for a streamlined summer refresh.

One product we’re loving as the weather heats up is the Olay Regenerist Whip UV SPF 30, which consolidates your moisturiser, SPF and primer into one lightweight, whipped formula.

This mattifying moisturiser targets elasticity, firmness, fine lines and wrinkles to ensure you stay looking like the best version of you for as long as humanly possible. Active Rush technology and Solar Sheer Technology™ is utilised, transforming the cream formula to liquid upon contact with the skin, allowing optimal absorption of all the lovely niacinamide, glycerin and broad spectrum sunscreen found on the ingredients list.

Here’s what our panel of Review Crew® testers had to say about this budget-friendly 3-in-1 multitasking moisturiser.

The panel

Beauty Crew sent Olay Regenerist Whip UV SPF 30 to a panel of women aged 22 to 40 with normal to combination skin.

The lowdown

Here’s what the Review Crew® loved about the Olay Regenerist Whip UV SPF 30.

The 3-in-1 multitasking formula: Our members really liked the fact that they were able to consolidate several steps in their skin care and makeup routine (moisturiser, SPF and primer to be exact) by using this product.

The lightweight feel: Reviews were conclusive across the board: our panel doesn’t like heavy moisturisers or SPF. A handful of reviewers said they'd given up on applying SPF completely (literally our worst nightmare) because they couldn’t find a formula that didn’t leave their skin feeling greasy, making makeup application nigh impossible (another one of our worst nightmares). This lightweight formula hydrated skin without implicating their makeup – score!

The matte finish: Another plus for Review Crew® members was the matte finish the moisturiser gave skin post-application, which made applying makeup a breeze and also allowed them to get on with life with an oil-free face.

The verdict

“Olay Regenerist Whip UV SPF 30 is a very sophisticated looking product which fits the product quite well and seamlessly slides into their existing range. Its triple threat formula not only moisturisers but primes and acts as a sunscreen too. My pet hate with SPF moisturisers is that they are too greasy, no this one! The smooth, silky, matte finish is amazing and helps my skin to feel hydrated all day. I also appreciate that it doesn't make my makeup slip after a humid day running errands.”

“This is a wonderful product that applies really easily thanks to the 'whipped' texture - a little bit of product goes a long way. It absorbs into the skin quickly and doesn't feel heavy or greasy - which is impressive considering it has SPF 30 as well (which i love!). My skin definitely loves this product too and I've noticed a much healthier appearance of my skin since using it and a healthy glow. I feel like it could definitely be a bit firmer too! I'd highly recommend this to others - it's a wonderful all in one. moisturising, sun protecting product that has amazing benefits at a great price!”

“For someone as lazy as me when it comes to skincare, this is a game changer. I can never remember to use all the necessary products, so having a moisturiser, sun protection and primer in one means that I am no longer skipping steps every morning. I have combination skin, and this provides adequate coverage without being too greasy and lays a good foundation for my foundation. I will definitely continue to use this and will purchase more when I get close to running out.”
