Hello all, this is a review on Olay's Aquaction Long Lasting Hydration Gel! I have been using Olay products ever since i bought their products. I find that it is a cheaper alternative to many expensive beauty products.
I came across an ad for this one day when I was browsing through my weibo and because I have not seen this Olay product before I wanted to try it. To my disappointment, I found out that they do not sell this here in the USA. I did find it to be sold on amazon though, but it isn't really what i would call cheap.
Here is where I bought it from instead: http://www.sasa.com/SasaWeb/eng/product/viewProductDetail.jspa?itemno=105563308001
It costs $15.60, which is a pretty good price imo because the regenerist olay products I buy are around $20 already.
well sadly, i just realized that the product isn't in stock anymore on sasa. :(
This is what it looks like: I threw away the box it came in ages ago, but it looks exactly like the olay regenerist boxes with the exception that it is blue instead of red, has Angelababy's face on it and is in chinese.
Anyways, this is the information of the product as quoted from SASA.COM:

This is what the product looks like. I have been using this product for a month now and I am quite satisfied with it.
I was honestly really happy to get my hands on this but then my aunt says that this product isn't sold here because it was probably only made for people in Asia. Perhaps this is true but i really do feel it keeps my skin moist for the whole day.
I have seen a girl do a review in this where she tested it on a apple. On one half, the apple is smeared with this product while the other half has nothing applied to it. About a few hours later or so, she showed that the half of the apple with this product smeared on still looked the same, no brown spots or anything, while the other half that had nothing applied had started to become brown.
her review was really fascinating! :O
The smell of this product is kind of like perfume? Somewhat like the Olay Regenerist smell but not as strong. It also smells more fresh than the Olay regenerist.
Honestly, I really love this product. I use it in the morning as a moisturizer and it lasts with me throughout the day. I think it also works well if you put this on as a base and then apply bb cream on afterward. When you apply it on, it doesn't make your face feel sticky or heavy. It gives off a refreshing and cool feel.
I would love to buy this again if they go in stock again.
