Olay is a world-renowned skin care system that treats a spectrum of beauty issues. Olay skin treatments focus on anti-aging, blemishes, improving skin tone and daily products for routine skin care. The product lines are designed for a range of skin types and skin problems. Olay skin treatments are sold in drugstores, supermarkets and other retailers.

Significance

When it comes to your skin, caring for it and protecting it should be the No. 1 concern. The American Academy of Dermatology explains that as skin gets older, it loses elasticity which leads to lines and wrinkles. Olay provides skin care treatment for different skin care types, including sensitive, normal, oily and dry. Classic products moisturize and protect, while newer products use innovative ingredients to target problems like wrinkles, fine lines and under-eye circles. The lines include cleansers, creams, lotions and serums.

Basic Skin Care

Olay's facial cleansers include the dual action cleanser pore scrub, cream scrub or blemish control lathering cleanser to remove dirt and impurities. You can also choose a facial scrub for exfoliation. Toners and makeup removers provide extra cleansing options. Dry or wet cloths allow you freshen up on the go. The Olay classic line includes the original scented pink moisturizing lotion. Olay Quench body lotion is a body moisturizer.

Special Products

Olay products also help target problem areas. If you have problems with deep lines and wrinkles, the Pro-X professional line is designed to fight signs of aging. Marketed as comparable to a prescription skin care line, Pro-X was created by scientists and dermatologists to help repair and rebuild the skin's natural moisture barrier, explains Olay Professional.

The Regenerist line hydrates skin and concentrates on giving the skin a more youthful and lifted appearance. The anti-aging eye roller targets under-eye puffiness and is designed to help reduce fine lines. The fragrance- and color-free product line is marketed to those with sensitive skin.

Anti-Aging

As you enter menopause, your skin goes through many, notes MedlinePlus. The Age Defying Series focuses on those skin concerns. Rebuilding elasticity and smoothing out wrinkles are the highlights of the Age Defying line. Using vitamins and antioxidants, Olay works at improving your skin tone while adding UV protection and plenty of moisture.

Potential

By using Olay's line of face creams, cleansers and body lotions, you are adding moisture to the skin that is vital for human health. If skin is left untreated or exposed to the elements, itchy, peeling, cracking and flaking skin can occur, explains MedlinePlus. Preventative measures with beauty products such as Olay, which include UV blocks and antioxidants may reduce your risk for skin damage and dryness.
