What the gurus are saying

This heritage moisturizer earned praise for making skin feel instantly soft and plumper, though gurus are clear it cannot reverse aging or rebuild collagen. One expert notes it was a nicely formulated hydrator by yesteryear's standards (the kind of staple grannies swore by) delivering the illusion of younger skin through pure moisture rather than active anti-aging claims. Today's ingredients read as basic, but they worked then for what they promised: dewy, smoother-looking skin.

"But here's the thing, it never actually reversed aging. As we know, skincare can't do that. The adverts also kind of tip-toed around the term anti-aging. It was more talking about replenishing dry skin, making it more moisturized, therefore in turn more youthful looking. When you [...] look at the ingredients, it was basically a nicely formulated moisturizer. We're talking water, glycerin, mineral oil, petroleum, cetyl alcohol, dimethicone, all of those old school moisturizers."

"I remember my granny having Oil of Olay as it was called, everyone's granny had Oil of Olay. I still think of it as Oil of Olay. I see Olay and I think oh God it's Oil of Olay in that like bottle, and it was on and you could smell it and the powder of it and how comforting that felt to me."
