Made my skin breakout. Do not buy.
This moisturizer sucks and made me break out. First of all, when u put it on, it makes u look super sweaty and gross. Second, after it dries up it doesn't really leave a feeling of your skin being moisturized. Lastly, I used it on certain spots on my face where I get the most dry and I broke out. I only broke out on the spots I put the cream on! I guess it's really heavy and clogs your pores so it doesn't let me skin breath. But now I'm pissed that I have pimples because of something that was supposed to be beneficial.

Greasy
I find ponds dry skin facial cream to be very greasy on the skin and makes you look very sweaty. && it doesn't seem to cure the dry skin very well either. Only a couple of hours really.

Terrible, didn't work at all. It may just not work for me, but it should have done something.
I know this brand is pretty good, which leads me to expect a lot from it. I have dry skin, like so dry it flakes. I also have mild acne which is pretty well controlled and usually doesn't need any sort of treatment besides popping and clearing the blemish of any debris with a special tool...which I realize is not a great idea, but it works for me. So to combat the dry skin and perhaps even the acne I gave a small bottle of this a try. Upon using this as an all over treatment, it made me wake to six new small pimples after all was said and done. I also noticed my skin was a bit red, and back to being dry. So not only did it not moisturize but it caused acne. It didn't seem like it clogged my pores, but it certainly didn't do what it is supposed to. It was also very oily which was a major turn off. Like, it seemed it was 60% oil and the rest was whatever else they decided to put in. I really don't know what went wrong, but this is not for me. My mom also used this for a bit, but it made her break out. I have used the dark spot correcting cream (the pink colored one) and it didn't cause breakouts, so there is definitely something in here that doesn't agree with my skin...and my skin isn't even sensitive. Look elsewhere, like perhaps Olay or CeraVe if your skin tends not to agree with some moisturizers. I am disappointed in this product.

Not good

Cons:

Burnt face
Irritated skin
Broke out

In my experience this moisturizer does not work well with Benzyl Peroxide. Using the two together left my face burning and it burned my face. My skin was super irritated and burnt, I didn't even want to go out in public. The moisturizer itself isn't that great either. It leaves the skin shiny and doesn't help to moisturize no matter the amount used, well in my case anyway.

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:

none

Made skin oily.

This looked good so I tried it, but I have an oily complexion and this made my skin 10 times more oily. It also did not help my acne at all.
