If anyone has mastered the art of aging gracefully, it’s Sarah Michelle Gellar. The actress may no longer be in her 20s (she’s 49, to be exact), but she still looks like herself — a.k.a. the same kickass queen we fell in love with in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Cruel Intentions and the million other iconic credits on her IMDB. Her secret isn’t finding the fountain of youth or going under the knife for some shape-shifting procedure. It’s actually a $26 cream you can buy at the drugstore.
On more than one occasion, the scene-stealing star has hyped up Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream, a tried-and-true, wrinkle-fighting face moisturizer that’s currently 30% off during Amazon’s Summer Beauty Event. While Gellar may technically be an Olay partner, appearing in campaigns for the brand, that doesn’t discredit the fact that the cream is, as she puts it, “a cult classic.” Gellar is just one fan on a long list, and the 4.6-star Amazon rating, coupled with the retailer having sold over 5,000 containers in the past month, proves it.

The reason the cream is such a hit with both celebs and everyday beauty lovers alike is its clinically tested formula that includes three powerful antioxidant peptides. The trio works to fight wrinkles while supporting collagen, producing visibly firmer skin in just one week and improving the deepest wrinkles in four. Throw in a bit of barrier-boosting niacinamide and hydrating Vitamin B5, and this mix won’t just make lines fade — it’ll leave your skin smooth and glowing with each application.
In the ad, Gellar claimed the cream delivers “dramatic results without drastic measures,” but technically, we don’t need a celebrity to say that. Customer reviews are convincing enough on their own, with many (even those in their 70s and 80s!) saying the results are shockingly good and that the product leaves no greasy residue.
“This stuff actually works!” one person wrote. “I was skeptical, but my skin has never looked better, and people have noticed the difference, too. People think I have had Botox! I use the night cream as well now, but for a while I was just using this so it’s great by itself.”
“Olay has been part of my regimen for years,” said another shopper. “The Regenerist cream is wonderful. It’s light, not greasy and absorbs into the skin quickly. The scent is very mild, and I have used unscented too. It spreads easily and goes far. The biggest thing is it really makes the skin smooth and reduces fine lines and wrinkles. Tried a different, very expensive doctor-formulated skin cream for a couple of months, and I definitely saw a difference. My skin was rough with more fine lines, and I looked old and haggard. I went back to Olay and within a week my skin was soft, smooth and looked younger.”
To be honest, if Gellar was promoting something more expensive, we’d be down to try that, too. Her skin just looks that good! But the fact that her go-to anti-aging cream is under $30 when it’s on sale? Well, that’s a major bonus. We’ll be adding a few to our cart while it’s still discounted!
