Olay Body Wash with Retinol & Vitamin B3 591ml

Olay Cleansing & Renewing Nighttime Body Wash is a rich, moisturising body cleanser formulated with retinol and vitamin B3 to help leave the skin feeling softer, smoother and more hydrated.

The creamy formula removes dirt, sweat and everyday impurities while petrolatum and conditioning lipids help reduce the dry, tight feeling that can follow cleansing. Retinol, retinyl propionate and niacinamide support smoother, brighter and more renewed-looking body skin with consistent use.

Olay Cleansing & Renewing Nighttime Body Wash is best suited to normal, dry and combination skin affected by dehydration, dullness or uneven texture. Olay positions it as a nighttime cleanser and reports deep hydration from the first use, with visible skin improvements after 14 days.

Because retinol is included in a rinse-off formula, expect gentler supporting benefits than you would receive from a leave-on retinol body lotion or treatment.

Best for

Ideal if you want:

• A creamy nighttime body cleanser
• Help softening dry-feeling body skin
• A body wash containing retinol and niacinamide
• Support for dull or uneven-feeling body skin
• A cleanser that leaves the skin feeling moisturised
• A gentle introduction to retinol body care
• A body wash to pair with a leave-on body moisturiser

Consider another option if: your skin is highly sensitive, irritated, eczema-prone or reactive to fragrance and preservatives. The formula contains added fragrance, methylchloroisothiazolinone and methylisothiazolinone, which may not suit highly reactive skin.

Key ingredients

 

Retinol and retinyl propionate
Vitamin A ingredients that support skin-surface renewal and help improve the appearance of dullness and uneven texture. Their effects will be milder in this rinse-off format than in a leave-on retinol treatment.

Niacinamide
Vitamin B3 helps support moisture retention and contributes to smoother, brighter and more balanced-looking skin.

Petrolatum
A moisture-locking emollient that helps reduce water loss and leaves the skin feeling softer and less stripped after cleansing.

Glyceryl oleate
A skin-conditioning lipid that helps soften the body and supports the cleanser’s rich, moisturising feel.

Melas approved because…

It combines effective daily cleansing with a rich moisturising base that helps the skin feel soft rather than excessively stripped after showering.

Retinol and retinyl propionate add gentle skin-renewal support, making the body wash relevant for dullness and uneven-feeling texture.

Niacinamide complements the formula by supporting moisture retention and a smoother, healthier-looking finish.

Its rinse-off format also provides a more approachable introduction to retinol body care, although stronger or more targeted results will require a leave-on body treatment.
