The secret to ageless skin: This $8 miracle product is making people look years younger!

The cosmetic industry has advanced over the past few years, with innovations coming out left and right, promising a fresh, beautiful appearance. In the quest for the fountain of youth, Australians are finding ways to turn back time through various skincare routines.

What they don’t know is that one of the biggest skincare secrets is just under their nose for decades– and sometimes, just tucked away in our dressers!


The product causing a stir? It’s Olay's sensitive moisturising lotion, an $8 anti-ageing marvel that works wonders on the skin.

The beauty community is abuzz with tales of this 'miracle' moisturiser, which is currently on sale for half its usual price.

It's not just the affordability that's captivating consumers; it's the promise of age-defying results that has everyone– from influencers to everyday shoppers–singing its praises.

British influencer Shannon Mitchell has shared on social media of her 96-year-old grandmother's beauty secret, revealing that her daily use of Olay's lotion for over 70 years has left her with clear skin.

'Olay is the secret to how well my nan has aged,' Shannon said, highlighting the product's ability to provide all-day moisture and leave skin feeling soft and nourished.

Melbourne influencer Christina Podolyan and makeup guru Louise B have also endorsed Olay's skincare range, with Louise B dashing to the supermarket to grab the lotion after hearing of its youth-preserving reputation on social media.

The lotion is readily available at most Australian pharmacies and supermarkets, including Coles, Woolworths, Priceline, and Chemist Warehouse.


Olay, an American skincare brand launched in 1952, has long been associated with timeless beauty, and its products have been a staple in many households.

Staying true to their tagline ‘ageless’, a new generation is now discovering the benefits of their classic moisturiser.

The resurgence of Olay's products comes at a time when anti-ageing products are soaring in popularity, especially for those concerned about maintaining their youthful appearance.

Hundreds of Australian beauty enthusiasts have taken to the internet to share their experiences, with some claiming to be mistaken for being a decade younger thanks to Olay's products.


However, it's not just about what you put on your skin; it's also about what you do to maintain it from the inside. A good skincare routine is essential, so is getting enough quality sleep.

Sleep is when the body produces human growth hormone (HGH), which is crucial in tissue repair and regeneration. Dubbed the 'Fountain of Youth' hormone, HGH helps keep the skin firm and youthful.

For optimal beauty sleep, experts suggest seven to nine hours of rest in a dark, cool room, free from distractions.

This environment supports the body's natural cooling process, which is necessary for deep, restorative sleep.

Whether you're looking to add a new product to your skincare routine or seeking ways to enhance your overall health and appearance, a blend of modern and time-tested methods could be the key to looking and feeling younger.

As a little girl, I spent my school holidays at my grandparents home….every morning and night my gran would moisturise her face with “Oil of Ulan”….she had beautiful skin!!
She always told me “you are never too young to start looking after your skin”. I have always used Oil of Ulan and now Olay, an I have according to others”absolutely beautiful skin, cannot believe that you are 68 years old”

I have been using OLAY MOISTURISING
CREAM FOR SENSITIVE SKIN for about 30 years. I have often been told how nice and soft my skin is. I don’t use any foundation or powders only lipstick. I am 74 and I will keep on using it.
I just enlarged your photo and you do have beautiful skin just like my mother who used this cream. She died at 92 and had peaches and cream complexion so keep up the good work.😊

I still think genetics and environment are the key to good skin. My mother and her mother had beautiful youthful skin, but I used to bake in the sun, so I stuffed that up.
Yep me too, my parents were English and at 82 my mum still had lovely skin and she used Nivea everyday, but me sun, sun, sun, just love being out in the fresh air and sun, I try and do the right thing but alas did not do a good job.

My mum died last year at 92 and her skin was so smooth compared with mine. She lived her life in Canada, so the sun was not out as much and certainly not as strong as here.☀️

Having a built in youthful appearance i don't need all those chemical laden face greases to ward off wrinkles/aging. When i was younger i also had super greasy skin and had to wash my hair everyday as it got greasy. I tried a natural based astringent once and my face went as tight as if i had, had botox. So i don't bother with anything but sunlight soap and water. After all i've lived with this youthful look all my life, i doubt it is going to leave me anytime soon. I feel old but look young.
