Quinta Brunson, 32, shared the retinol serum she says “recharges” her skin at night.
She loves Olay’s Regenerist Retinol 24 Night Facial Serum because it’s gentle, yet effective.
“Serums just feel like they’re doing that extra layer of work under your moisturizer. I think it’s really important to use one.”
No skincare routine is complete without a good retinol, but the truth is—the powerhouse ingredient can get pricey. And when you’re going to be using a product multiple times a week (you know, to fade dark spots, fine lines, and smooth texture) having one you can restock without breaking the bank is ideal. And Quinta Brunson has just the recommendation: Olay’s Regenerist Retinol 24 Night Facial Serum.
In a new Go to Bed With Me video with Harper’s Bazaar, the Abbot Elementary star and Olay partner shared her nighttime skincare routine, which she said is “just as important as the morning skincare routine.”
“You have to hydrate your skin at night, you have to protect your skin at night, you have to recharge your skin at night,” she continued, which is why she loves the Olay Regenerist line—particularly the retinol serum, which you can get for $40.
It not only contains rejuvenating retinol, but also anti-inflammatory niacinamide, which helps fade dark spots and tame redness and irritation that retinol, an intense exfoliator, can sometimes bring. It also contains an amino-peptide blend to liven the skin with bounce and hydration.
“I love keeping it all in the [Olay] family,” Brunson, 32, explained in the video. “I can really trust that these things are gonna work together to recharge my face as I sleep. I like to put it all over my face and my neck, and serums just feel like they’re doing that extra layer of work under your moisturizer. I think it’s really important to use one.”
And she’s not alone in her love of the product. “Not only has it helped treat acne and prevent new problems, but also has brightened my complexion, faded old scars and pigmentation! Not to mention addressing fine lines and wrinkles,” one Ulta reviewer writes. “It’s amazing. No irritation. No redness. Just glowing, even tone, and my face looks visibly firmer. Not only are small lines around my eyes becoming much less noticeable, but the small crease I have between my brows has actually shrunk,” another adds.
“This is easily the best retinol I’ve ever found. It absorbs into the skin and doesn’t leave a sticky film like some do,” another shopper writes.
Along with the serum, Brunson also uses the Regenerist eye cream, which she says is “great” after waking up at 5 a.m., as well as the moisturizer, which she says is “light, easy to use, creamy,” and “feels like silk.”
