My quest to find suitable moisturization for my mocha skin ended at CVS. In the December issue of Essence magazine I saw the stunning Angela Bassett in an ad for the new
Olay Quench Deep Moisture with Cocoa butter, Jojoba and Vitamin B3. I figure if it's good enough for radiant skin Angela Bassett, it would certainly deliver my dry skin from the Mojave desert. Plus, I like the lavender bottle. It's my favorite color. I paid $8.69 plus tax for the big bottle of Olay Quench Deep Moisture. I floored it home so I could begin having soft silky skin like Angela Bassett. Initially I wasn't thrilled with the light powdery scent, but it was doable. I applied it all over and waited a couple of hours to see if my dry skin blues were over. On the moisturization scale it was a 5.5, not exceptional but it didn't fail miserably either. This is not a product for extra dry skin, normal skin could probably benefit more. However, I began to notice specks of glitter all over my legs and arms, basically everywhere I applied the lotion. What in tarnation? I'm not on the Junior Varsity spirit team, so why the heck are there sparkles in my freakin' lotion. There wasn't a warning on the bottle. Then I touched my face under duress, and the shiny stuff was now on my face. @!#% This is false advertisement. Olay Quench Deep Moisture is fine for a night out but not for everyday use, it's childish and cheesy. I mean throw a spotlight on me and I'm pigtailed tap dancing ten year old on America's Got Talent. Needless to say I returned Olay Quench Deep Moisture and purchased something else. Please let this be the one...
