wonderful for really dry skin!!
I have REALLY dry skin and acne in my driest areas, this helped so much! I apply it at night after washing my face and let it soak in over night. The dry redness has almost completely gone away from my t-zone.

Pros:

Cheap

Cons:

Oily / Greasy
Breakout

Although my aunt uses this product everyday and it keep her skin so soft and young, I tried it after reading these reviews on here and it totally made my face breakout with more pimples. There must be some ingredients that just doesn't agree with my skin.

Pros:

My face feels very soft
It doesn't sting
Eliminates the flakes on my extremely dry skin

Cons:

I haven't really found any yet.

I haven't been using this product for long, but so far I love it. I just started Renova treatment and it has really made my skin dry and flakey and extremely sensitive. This is the only moisterizer that gets rid of the flakes and doesn't set my face on fire. Even my very expensive Lancome face cream for dry skin doesn't eliminate the flakes like this product that I spent under $5 for. I've noticed that the ones complaining about it being too oily or greasy and it doesn't absorb are the ones who say they have oily skin. It's called Pond's Dry Skin Cream. It's for DRY SKIN!!!

Pros:

SO smooth and hydrating!
Super inexpensive
Perfect nighttime moisturizer
NEVER clogs pores!

Cons:

Some dislike the smell. It is strong. Personally, I don't mind it.

I love this stuff! Perfect for super dry skin! Also great for hands and elbows! I recommend using this as soon as you step out of the shower!

You may be using it wrong
I use ponds cold cream, and I have an extremely oily face. This stuff has saved me from breaking out really badly in the summer from the humidity. What I do is massage some on my face every night for a few minutes then run water over my face and massage my face in the water. Then dry your face off and it's not so greasy but still feels moisturized without the heaviness.

Try it if you need gentle healing
After damaging my skin with the Clinique 3 step system, I was left with dry patches and fresh moderate breakouts. I have skin that varies in dryness and oiliness depending on the weather, and moderate/severe breakouts on my cheeks and jawline that aren't cystic. I have noticed my scarring and red marks being lighter while using this for the past month. This cream does make my skin feel good, and while I don't mind how heavy it truly is, It might be a problem for some people. I don't feel it was broken me out since I've started using it, despite the notably "pore clogging" ingredients, but I have started to question if it is prolonging my breakouts. It's a really good moisturizer for people who need hydration, have accidentally over dried their skin with products, and possibly those who are dealing with red marks and light scarring.

Pros:

- Moisturizes very well!
- Removed all the dry patches on my face

Cons:

- A bit greasy
- Made me breakout like never before! ):

I really wanted to love this product! I saw how many great reviews it got and decided to give it a try. The first try was great, my skin felt amazing and was silky soft by morning. However, after a few days I began to break out. I didn't want to believe it was the moisturizer so I kept using it, but my face got worse. Embarrassing! I got zits in places I RARELY EVER get any and most were very large. I finally stopped using the product and after about a week my face has cleared up quite a bit. This product DOES moisturize extremely well, but was clearly not for my skin. I would probably still recommend it because if it doesn't cause you to break out, then it'll be an amazing moisturize. I wish I could have kept using it!

Pros:

moisturizes extremely dry skin and keeps it moisturized!
doesn't clog pores
lasts a really long time

Cons:

leaves skin a little oily, but way better than dry flakies!!

I love this stuff!! My skin gets extremely dry after using proactiv and after getting out of the pool after swim practice. I've tried a bunch of other products and most of them broke me out so when I found this one i was extatic! I use it day and night and it has definitely helped with my dry flakey skin. YOu don't need very much so the container will end up lasting you a long time!
