Olay Body Wash ($5.29) was a staple of my college dorm bathroom in the Winter, when no amount of lotion could keep the indoor heat from drying my skin out. I haven't used it in a couple years now that I live in more temperate climes, but the most recent version incorporates body butter, and it sounds just as good as the original. Reader hippiecowgirl wrote a nice review of it, so I'll let her take it from here:

Long gone are days when models became washed up before their 30th birthdays. Take "the big six" of the '90s, for instance, whose varied careers have withstood the test of time. Also take note of Twiggy, the waifish model who became the face of the '60s while still in her teenage years.

After my friend Babyassface pointed out how wasteful Olay's packaging is – especially because it's practically impossible to recycle — she received a lame, canned response. She's encouraging people to write letters to Olay, explaining their preference for a more environmentally friendly packaging system. I definitely prefer to buy products with minimal (or better yet, no) packaging.

As a firm believer in gradual tanners – especially those of the budget variety – I was intrigued by the buzz around Olay Complete Care Everyday Sunshine Body Moisturiser, (£5.99).
It won Best Body Self Tanner, in the Cosmopolitan Beauty Awards, and recently every other person I compliment on their sun kissed glow, has told me it's actually Olay.
Despite being quite pale, I accidentally bought the 'deep sun-kissed' colour, so was a little apprehensive when I realised that this may not be all that natural looking.

I am a bathroom snoop. Whenever I go over to somebody's house and use the loo, my eyes scour the room to see what people are using. Even better is what happens when you stay at a friend's house: You sometimes get to try out something new.

Skin cancer is very prevalent in our society today, so be sure to take advantage of the free skin cancer screening program next month, called Skin Cancer Takes Friends.
According to reports, Olay and the American Society for Dermatological Surgery have teamed up with Desperate Housewife, Marcia Cross, to spread awareness of the program, which is meant to encourage people to bring their friends to dermatologic surgeons for a free screening. Look out for Marcia, who will appear in a national print campaign in Shape Magazine and in in-store visuals.
