Skincare buffs will know just how popular the Olay Super Serum was when it landed in the UK last year . As the only product to be packed with not one, but five ingredients, there's a reason it quickly went viral. Once dubbed the "cult beauty product of 2024", it does, however, have a sister product that only recently landed on store shelves; the Olay Super Cream , and it's already on offer for half-price at Boots. Offering a similar formula to its serum counterpart, this new cream from Olay does retail at £39.99, although the health and beauty chain has it on offer for just £19.99 , making it the perfect payday treat or stocking filler idea for any beauty enthusiast this Christmas .

This means that it's a multi-tasking moisturiser that can offer everything including ultra-lightweight hydration, a soft makeup base, a healthy glow, while also preventing against dark spots and fine lines. The addition of SPF30 means that, alongside its host of other skincare benefits, the Olay Super Cream can also protect against harmful UVA/UB sun rays which are the number one cause of premature ageing. While this is the only moisturiser on the market to boast five ingredients, another multi-tasker that is worth a mention is the Garnier Vitamin C 2 in 1 Brightening Cream that targets radiance, hyperpigmentation, while also providing SPF25. Meanwhile, one multi-purpose cream that can also be used for pretty much everything is the Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré Multi-Pur pose Moisturiser that acts as a moisturiser, makeup remover, shaving cream and much more. As for the Olay Super Cream , it seems to be another winner, as, despite being new, it has already earned a 4.6 rating based on multiple Boots reviews that have branded it as "magical" and "a must have" for a skincare routine. One glowing review read: "I’m obsessed with the Olay Super Cream! The scent is gorgeous — clean and fresh without being overpowering. The texture is beautifully smooth and non-greasy, melting into my skin effortlessly and leaving it feeling soft and hydrated. "I love that the pot is refillable (big sustainability win!) and the added SPF 30 is such a fantastic bonus. The blend of 5 powerhouse ingredients — Niacinamide, Vitamin E, Glycerin, Vitamin C, and Collagen Peptide — makes my skin look brighter, plumper, and more radiant every day." A second five-star review read: "I received my Olay Super Cream and have been using it twice a day, daily. The results are just amazing. "It leaves my skin feeling absolutely amazing, super soft, replenished and healthier than ever. The name really is in the title. SUPER cream. It smells divine and there is no oiliness from the product. A must have for my day to day routine!" That being said, shoppers prone to breakouts might want to consider before purchasing, as one two-star review read: "I haven't had spots for years but, since using this, my skin has had several break outs." Although, another happy purchaser said: "The Olay Super Cream is amazing. I went looking for a light-weight moisturizer with sunscreen for Texas' hot summers, and when I put it on my face, it felt magical. A little goes a long way and it feels so luxurious, as I would expect a fancy high-end brand to feel. "The finish is so nice. I like the light scent that reminds me of a popular bath and body store's "cashmere" scented lotion. The product absorbs quickly and there's no greasy feel. This is my new favourite! Boots shoppers can bag the Olay Super Cream with SPF30 for half-price at Boots now.
