I probably receive 100 bottles of moisturizer to test each year -- every drawer I own overflows. But Olay's moisturizer/sunscreen duo is such perfection, I actually buy a new bottle every month. The light texture absorbs fast, even on combination skin. Fair skin is protected completely. Foundation applies smoothly and un-funky on top. The only drawback? Pumping out the last 10 percent of lotion is impossible. No biggie. This product's worth digging out with a cotton swab.

Olay Complete Defense Daily UV Comes in Handy in Different Ways
by hollisnan (1 review)This is a versatile product that covers a lot of territory... (1) I use it on my neck and throat, because it absorbs well and does not leave a sticky residue that can stain clothes or cause jewelry to leave black oxidation marks. (2) I use it on my hands on my way out the door in the morning, because it is not so &quo...t;sticky" that it attracts newspaper ink on my daily commute. (3) It is small emough to pop into in hand luggage when travelining by air./ (4) Although my face is very oily, I can still use it without "gunking up" my makeup. Overall, it has a pleasant texture and smell; it blends and absorbs well. Combined with its reasonable price and hand-friendly container, this product has become a staple in my beauty "wardrobe".

Great moisture + protection
by jennbee (80 reviews)Top 500 ReviewerTotal Beauty BloggerTrusted ReviewI really enjoyed using this product - it felt very light on my skin, and had a nice, clean smell that wasn't terribly overpowering. The SPF30 is one of my favorite parts; few moisturizers carry such high protection without feeling heavy or greasy, but this one feels pretty good. :) I only had to worry about oil a lit...tle bit on my T-zone, but it's not totally oil-free, so I can't complain much.

wonderful
by tamzzy (37 reviews)Top 500 ReviewerTrusted ReviewThis stuff is great. I have pale sensitive skin which turns pink and freckled in the summer. This doesn't make me break out and its not too oily, I have combination skin, but it works great all year around and the bottle lasts a long time. I usually use three pumps for a "serving size" February 4, 2008, 4:34 pm6 of 6 people found this review helpful.

Good product
by Kate (28 reviews)Trusted ReviewI tried this after reading the reviews here--I definitely was interested in the non-greasy. This product delivered--non-greasy, SPF 30, and moisturizing. The reason I don't give it a 10 is that I was wearing it and got windburn (?) one day--I'm not sure if this was from the sun or wind, but I assumed wind since I was wear...ing this? Anyway I doubted its sunscreen efficacy there. April 29, 2008, 6:50 am5 of 6 people found this review helpful.

absorbs quickly and makes my skin look healthy
by smshin (3 reviews)I\'m really big on using sun protection for my face and have tried a variety of products, but I keep coming back to this one. It doesn\'t feel heavy and greasy, like so many other sunscreens do (including department store brands). I also like the fact that it absorbs quickly so the slight whitish cast from the sunscreen c...omponents actually makes my face appear more \"glowing\" rather than ghost white.

The best moisturizer I've found.
by Amanda17 (14 reviews)This moisturizer is relatively inexpensive and has been the best one I've come across. It does not feel heavy or greasy and gives you SPF protection all day. If I'm out on the beach this is all I wear. Plus it has the added benefit of being inexpensive! April 23, 2008, 6:40 am4 of 4 people found this review helpful.

Excellent Day Moisturizer
by ZooZoo (3 reviews)My sensitive skin is very satisfied with this moisturizer. Yet another excellent product recommended by my dermatologist. It is easy to apply, makes my skin feel soft and doesn't cause it to get oily or breakout. I am also very happy to know it has a higher SPF than most creams. I really hope the moisturizer is good enough ...to protect my skin during the harsh winter. I'll let you know if I change my mind about it later but for now I love it!

My favourite everyday spf-
by mikaela (92 reviews)Top 500 ReviewerTotal Beauty BloggerTrusted Reviewmy favorite daily moisturizer with SPF for some very good reasons I’ll share with you… 1. It is a physical blocker, which means it utilizes zinc oxide for its UV protection, ensuring the protection actually includes defense against UVA (aging rays) and that it stays put! I don’t need to be worrying all day that my che...mical sun screen has broken down and degraded just an hour or 2 after I applied it, therefore rendering it useless. 2. It has Green Tea and Vitamin E – 2 potent anti-oxidants that fight free radicals & help protect your skin against sun damage. 3. It’s relatively inexpensive, and you can find it anywhere. 4. It’s a great base for your makeup, my Dermalogica sheer tint moisture SPF 15 (also zinc based) glides right over it. 5. It is endorsed by the Skin Cancer Foundation & tons of dermatologists, including Dr. Leslie Baumann & my own derm. 6 It's a travel friendly 2 1/2oz! What’s not to love?!
