Olay created a trio of Pressed Serum Sticks that provide all the benefits of a skincare serum in a highly portable, mess-free format. Each of the solid skincare sticks boasts a different benefit but they all share similar ingredients like Vitamin B3, which is touted as Olay's "favorite workhorse ingredient," and glycerin to help skin retain more moisture.
While the Cooling Hydration Pressed Serum Stick contains electrolyte-rich cactus water and antioxidants, the Refreshing Pressed Serum Stick features sake kasu, an ingredient that's created during the production of sake and touted as a "Japanese miracle ingredient." The third and final Pressed Serum Stick from Olay easily glides onto the skin to share the benefits of brightening Vitamin C, which also helps to strengthen the skin's moisture barrier.
