Wow
I was hesitant when my friend recommended this to me because I was like, "hey. I've heard this one will make your face sticky and I already have an oily face!" And I hate the sticky texture on your face. To cut the story short, I started to use this as dirt remover (because I wear no make up at all. Only if you count lip tint.) Then wash it with warm water and tada!!! My skin texture now is similar to the Koreans and I have less break outs. I love it. Definitely recommending this one.

I just have a question about how you use this. So you wash your face with this first then add the rest of your skincare routine (toner, acne treatment, moisturiser etc.)? or do you just use the ponds by itself?

We love it...
My sister and I love this one. We don't experience any breakout or any irritation. Cheap and effective.

Unexpected results
Putting something so greasy and full of perfume on my face really went against everything doctors and dermatologist have told me. But I'm glad I did because I'm actually seeing results. I don't know if it stops new acne from forming but it is helping my existing acne (including cysts) heal way faster and also keeping my dry skin moisturized. I've been using it for about 2 weeks now putting it on most nights and some mornings if my skin is extra dry.

Incredible
Even though I was skeptical about putting something so greasy on my already oily skin, I heard good things and decided to go through with using it. My skin used to be flaky (yet somehow still oily) from the products I was using because I wasn't using a proper moisturizer. This cold cream takes care of that on top of cleansing, so now I can use my benzoyl peroxide without feeling like I'm destroying my skin. Within the first week, my cystic acne turned to whiteheads and popped on their own and I haven't had new pimples develop even though I'm still waiting on the old ones to heal. I still add in another oil-free cleanser to cut grease and BP for spot treatment. Hopefully this works out in the end, but it hasn't let me down yet.

Pros:

-cleans everything off
-moisturizes
-smells great (like roses)

Cons:

-none

This product is amazing for taking makeup off! I use it everyday, even when I don't wear makeup, because it feels so refreshing. It didn't make me break-out, however it isn't an acne cure. I think it did help somewhat, but it won't get rid of it. I did find it weird to put something so thick on my face, but after I got used to it, I loved it! It also lasts really long to. I have been using one container for the last 6 months, and I'm still not done with it! I probably have another month or two left. Overall, I would definitely buy this again because it takes care of so many things at once. I even went through a week using this in replacement of my moisturizer!

Pros:

Leaves face moisturized and hydrated
Can be used to take makeup (even waterproof mascara) off and cleanse face at the same time
Can be used by those who have sensitive skin

Cons:

Leaves a small film on your face (this would only be considered a con if you don't like that sort of thing...if your face is extremely dry, you'll consider this a pro)
Can make your face look and become oily (I would only recommend using this at night)

This product is very great overall, but I would not recommend using this everyday if you have really oily skin. It's a great emergency product to have should your face get dry for any reason. It removes makeup really well.

Pros:

Moisturizes
Clears Acne

Cons:

Non Natural Ingredients
Greasy Feeling

I have have light to moderate acne for a while now. It seemed like it was getting worse recently, I was breaking out frequently, my skin tone was uneven, and I was feeling uncomfortable. I was trying coconut oil for a couple weeks before trying this stuff. I desperately wanted coconut oil to work due to how natural and pure it is without any chemical ingredients. Unfortunately, it didn't really. I was really nervous about trying this stuff due to the unnatural ingredients in it, the consistency (which is very thick), etc. I went for it one night, and I actually quite liked it. I have not broken out badly since starting it about a week ago, my skin has cleared significantly and evened out in tone, I went out today without any make up for the first time in a few weeks. My routine involved washing my face with this and hot water once in the morning and once at night, followed by a watered down raw apple cider vinegar facial toner (which I think has been greatly improving my skin tone and reducing break outs as well). It's been nice. I don't even mind the greasy feeling, which definitely exists, but goes away after rinsing off and drying. I even enjoy the mild scent, and I am generally quite scent sensitive. So far so good.

Pros:

Moisturizes
Cleared acne, blemishes

Cons:

Oily
Container isn't very sanitary

I've suffered from rather light acne for about four years, and recently I started breaking out a lot more. I had tried using many products but none seemed to do anything except dry out my skin. My skin was dry, flaky, and I had acne too. To top it off, I have some mild eczema on my cheeks, so I couldn't do anything to help the dryness/eczema without aggravating the acne. Two weeks ago I started using Ponds because my mom said that my pediatrician had recommended it a while back. At first I wasn't really sure about the product because it's oil based, so I first used it in the shower and washed it off after putting some on. But I then learned to read (lol) and applied it after my shower, leaving it on overnight. Now my skin has improved substantially; it's pretty much clear except for a little bit of eczema. I'm not exactly sure if it was Ponds that did it though because I also changed my diet a bit. But I'm pretty sure that it did help in some ways. Overall, try it out! It might work for your skin.

Pros:

Take off make-up well (about 90%)
Smells wonderful
Lasts for a long time
Pretty little jar
Moisturizes as well

Cons:

Can be little too greasy (oily) so I use warm wet cotton pad afterwards to remove the cream, and sometimes it takes a while to do that
Have to use toner afterwards to remove the rest of the make up

Its very gentle and moisturizng, so it is good for dry skin, however I wouldnt recommend for oily skin type. Might be difficult to remove the cream afterwards so I use wet cotton pad. However, some people do not waash it off as they use it as a night cream too. It was very cheap and does not make me break out as it doesnt contain any sulfates, parabens or soy proteins that usually break me out easily.
