If Hollywood ever decides to make a movie about Cecil Beaton, a smart but obscure subject matter would be his account of the six months he traveled through America on the lecture circuit. The topic of the tour was his career, and at age fifty, Beaton seemed eager to put it in perspective, at times worrying his wide-ranging talents made him a dilettante. [History has judged him more kindly than he imagined.] Well-meaning parvenus he meets along the way make amusing fodder, but he has genuine admiration for those he encounters, and his manner is more kindhearted than one might expect.

“Americans are not materialistic in the money sense: they are too generous and wasteful, too idealistic for that.”

--Cecil Beaton

4.5/5; Great product, but smells strong
Scent: Sweet Vanilla & Soft Wood, Size: 10 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Context: To start off, I should say that I have dry skin. Like, VERY dry skin. In purchasing this item, I wanted a product that I could consistently apply every single day to hydrate my skin. Product: The application of this stuff was like a dream. If you’ve ever tried using ANY sort of lotion (Lubriderm, Cetaphil, etc.) you’d know that usually it leaves that greasy texture on your hands that you have to wash off. This one doesn’t do ANY of that. The cream melts into your skin and absorbs very easily, unlike other lotions. I didn’t need that much to apply to my entire body. The results were great—my skin looked better and felt softer. If there was to be a con, it would be how strong the fragrance of the lotion is. This stuff smells STRONG. It’s not an unpleasant scent, but if you wanted to wear a perfume or body spray along with it, good luck because I can’t see a world where the cream won’t overpower or at least show through your preferred scent. TLDR Overall, good product with dreamlike application, but strength of scent could be dealbreaker for some.

This everyday body lotion is the bomb!
Scent: Collagen, Size: 17 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This body lotion is absolutely fabulous! It really does make the skin on my thighs and abdomen look and feel firmer and the skin on my arms, legs, hands, and feet is noticeably softer and more hydrated without looking greasy or feeling sticky. I even use it on my neck and my face, which has tended to be more dry than oily as I've aged. I also really appreciate that the scent is pleasant enough to stand on its own but subtle enough to work well with other fragrances. I don't think that I have ever been this satisfied with a health/beauty product at such an affordable price point. I even purchased a few extra bottles to gift to friends and family.

Wow - my new favorites 💜👍😀
Scent: Retinol, Size: 17 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I just purchased this and tried it last night for the first time along with the firming version. I didn't take photos because I was skeptical as a product I had purchased from a different line for more money didn't work. This morning I notice that not only does my skin feel more hydrated but the texture appears more smooth. I recently turned 75 & lost my husband a few months ago and having been a care giver for awhile and put taking care of me aside. These products and body wash are great and I like the fragrance. Please give them a try. To have something show this much difference over night is incredible. They are also affordable which is a plus for me. Thank you Olay.

I've only tried it for the first time, so I can't speak to performance, but I love 5his Product! It isn't greasy, it absorbs quickly & my skin feels much softer. The scent is just beautiful. It's light & not closing like some. Recommend highly.

Smells incredible and leaves skin silky smooth!
Scent: Pomegranate & Hibiscus, Size: 30.6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Dove never disappoints, and this Rejuvenate formula is amazing. The scent is beautifully refreshing and fills the whole shower. The pump bottle makes it so convenient to use without fumbling around with a wet cap. It lathers up incredibly rich and creamy, and it actually leaves your skin feeling hydrated and silky smooth instead of dried out. A household staple that everyone loves!
