Natural Alternative to Olay Regenerist Serum
If there is one brand that everyone knows about it has to be Olay. This is because they have been around for decades, previously known as Oil of Ulay and now just called Olay. They have a large range of face products with lots of youth preserving creams and treatments. At Nakin we also have a range of anti-ageing face products but our products have a big difference. Nakin’s are packed with natural actives and extracts, as we believe that this is the best way to keep skin healthy, youthful and harmonised. One of Olay’s most popular products is the Olay Regenerist Serum and at Nakin we have a natural alternative which is our Nakin Anti-Ageing Performance Face Serum.
The Regenerist Serum helps with smoothing skin, fine lines and hydration with its vitamin B3 and peptide formula. Our Natural Performance Serum uses a natural hibiscus derived peptide which is a powerful anti-ager that is also known as nature’s Botox, in the way that it smooths expression lines on the face. It also contains lots of other skin enhancing ingredients like hyaluronic acid, green tea, pomegranate and omega plant oils. Despite both having lots of anti-ageing benefits there are also some differences in the ingredients. To highlight the difference with the ingredients in our Nakin Anti-Ageing Serum and the Olay Regenerist Serum we have listed them below, which were collated at the time of writing this post.

At Nakin one of the biggest focus with our face products is to use plant ingredients that help skin to thrive naturally. We know that the Olay Regenerist Serum is popular with many people and it does contain some natural ingredients, but also has a large amount of synthetic content. For this reason our serum will feel different to the Olay one, as it does not have the synthetic moisturising agents in it, or the synthetic fragrance. Over the last decade natural skincare has grown massively in popularity and more than half of women prefer to use it. At Nakin our serum is over 98.5% natural and it means customers can understand and trust the ingredients that they put on their face.
We believe that natural skincare is kinder to skin and works more safely with our natural biology. At Nakin we have a strict ingredient policy and never use controversial ingredients like parabens, silicones, PEGs and artificial fragrance.
The other great thing about natural skincare is that it has advanced massively and now has formulations that rival conventional synthetic skincare. At Nakin we use high performing plant actives and extracts to clear skin, smooth lines, hydrate and deeply condition. We hope that you found our feature useful about our alternative to the Olay Regenerist Serum. We have a whole range of high performance face care that is powered by plants.

Hi Huda,
Thank you for getting in touch and for your comment.
Yes of course, we absolutely agree that sunscreen is really important for our skin, to keep us safe from the harmful UV rays, and help to prevent premature skin ageing. It is essential to use sun protection when needed, and we always recommend this.
At Nakin we always suggest a separate moisturiser and sunscreen, as a moisturiser helps with hydration, nourishment and general protection. However, a sunscreen is only there to do one job, and that is protect skin from the sun. When SPF is used as part of a moisturiser we tend to not apply enough, and it tends to be at different times to when we are actually going outside. So, in general a sunscreen as part of a moisturiser does not give enough protection, and it also limits the amount of skin enhancing actives and extracts that can be put into the moisturiser.
We do not have a sunscreen in our moisturisers, as our creams are for both day and night use. They contain lots of amazing natural actives and extracts that benefit skin in both the day and night, and we prefer to fill them with as many skin boosting natural actives and extracts as possible. We do not recommend using an SPF in a face cream and instead we recommend only using SPF when actually going outside, and reapplying SPF in the day as required.

We hope that this answers your query and please let us know if we can help further.
Kind regards,
Nakin
