Pond’s Cream Dry Skin 3.9 oz (Pack of 2)

One of the few moisturizers that doesn’t break me out. Part of an intricate sunscreen routine that keeps my skin clear too.
I have come to realize over time that I have normal to dry, sensitive and acne prone skin.While this isn’t something I can use twice a day, I can safely use it liberally in the mornings without breaking out – and my skin has a beautiful dewy look. One of the very few chemical or natural moisturizers that have worked for me without breaking me out (and I have used many over the last couple years), along with Vaseline Cocoa Radiant Lotion (that big brown pump bottle) and Cerave in a tub. I have tried natural oils on damp or wet skin, and they never were able to properly moisturize my skin, causing me to eventually break out.On its own without putting on any type of sunscreen or moisturizer, my skin would never break out with pretty much any soap. However because I use sunscreen now (Elta Md UV Daily) I have had to figure out a routine that doesn’t break me out. Down to how many times I can use soap in the day, what type of soap works with my moisturizer and sunscreen (I need moisturizer with my zinc oxide sunscreen, or I will break out), etc.By the way, for those breaking out with sunscreen, it could also be because waterproof sunscreen doesn’t suit your face. That is what I figured out for myself too.So here is the winter or summer routine I found, that lets me use (non-waterproof) sunscreen daily without breaking out or needing any benzoyl peroxide or specific acne fighters (every element is important in this routine, I have found, down to the soap choice or even when I can put moisturizer on):1) Use Ponds dry skin cream in the morning.2) Wait for it to absorb (I vary the amount depending on how much time I have, but a moderate amount doesn’t take more than half an hour. A little amount, which is also sufficient to moisturize well without breaking out, should be under 10 minutes).3) Put on Elta MD UV Daily sunscreen lotion. If the amount of Ponds wasn’t too much, it should sink and be invisible pretty soon. I don’t reapply, since I spend much time indoors in my job during the week, and wear hats when I go out if it is still sunny (during the week) and during the weekends.4) In the evening, put on Ponds Cold Cream. Rinse a little, or don’t rinse. Put on Dove Sensitive Skin liquid Body Soap on the cold cream covered, or rinsed face. Rinse the Dove soap. Put on a little more soap and rinse again. Don’t put on moisturizer.When I hit the shower in the morning, I might splash water on my face and whatever water falls there, falls there. But I don’t need to wet my face at all, and regardless, the water exposure or cleaning (or anything from shampoos or conditioners – I use shampoo and rinse conditioner once a week, pump conditioners on my lower hair away from my face more often) doesn’t break me out. Personally though, I prefer even my showers in the evening.For my forehead, in the evenings I just use cold cream to wipe off the sunscreen (or sunscreen plus Ponds dry skin cream, but I don’t really need to use the cream on my forehead in the morning since it is not breaking out and seems well moisturized with just the cold cream usage) with a piece of washable cloth. I don’t use water there, apart from whatever falls on it during my morning or evening shower. No breakouts and this routine saves time in the evenings (annoying to clean the forehead over the sink lol).I am enjoying not having to worry about acne anymore, as well as being able to use sunscreen and moisturize my skin to prevent aging.

Traditional great cream
A traditional cream, moisturizer that works great. Haven’t used this for years, but tried it out again because it is gentle on skin. Awesome!

Nice scent and light moisturizer
I bought this for my 85 yr old Dad who loves the scent and it’s not too greasy on his face, arms and hands. He’s very particular about what kind of lotion he likes so he has been a faithful customer all these years!!

Great for really dry skin!
I started using this on my arms and legs once to twice a day, initially, because my skin was so dry! Now I use it once a day fairly religiously. My skin has totally changed for this old lady!While I cannot promise all your wrinkles will go away, they are better when hydrated with this Pond’s line of cream. I use Rejuveness for my face at night and, sometimes the Crema S for my face and total skin application in the morning. But this cream for dry skin can be used any time and it is the best-smelling of the three in the Pond’s brand!Definitely worth a try if you have dry skin because of air conditioning woes or, now, as the winter season starts to wreak havoc with dry heating in your home. Your skin takes a toll.I first started using Pond’s cold cream 50 years ago as a make-up remover working in the theatre and it has always been the best in cleaning my face. Now, I am using all Pond’s creams and my skin feels so much better!Thanks, Pond’s, for a great product line of creams!

Não fico sem ele triste não vender mais no Brasil !!
