Pond’s White Beauty Pearl Cleansing Gel Review & Pics

ABOUT:It claims to give glowing refreshed fair skin after wash without drying the skin as it has oxy-gel formula with pearl essence.

IMG_1491

PRICE:rs.95 for 50gms,165 for 100gm

PACKAGING:The face wash comes in a pink and white plastic tube with a flip cap.The packaging is nothing new and very Ponds’ type.It is easy to use and dispense out the product.Also,it is travel friendly.

IMG_1490 IMG_1498

MY VIEWS:The face wash is transparent thick gel type devoid of any granules.It is dense and a small amount is only needed for one time use.

IMG_1497

The face wash is easy to work out with and lather very well.It is mild and not very strong.It has a floral fragrance reminiscent to all Pond’s products.I use it once a day.It provides a fresh feel to the face.It is not one of those face washes that  leave your face squeeky clean taking away all the oil from the face.The moisture level of my face doesn’t go down however it removes all the dirt nicely.

IMG_1493

RATING:3/5

RECOMMENDATION:It is a very typical of Pond’s face wash.Apart from the name,the formula and everything is the same.The claims of pearl essence are still under doubt.My favorite is Pond’s tan removal scrub/face wash!!

Ponds White Beauty™ Tan Removal Scrub-My Views

ABOUT:Light, radiant and fresh skin is a function of two attributes: Gentle Cleansing and Scrub.
New Tan Removal scrub gently cleanses skin to remove excess oil and dead skin cells. It also scrubs off the tanned top layer of dead skin cells, so that the skin’s natural fairness is revealed. New Pond’s White Beauty™ Tan Removal Scrub gives you a reason to love the sun and at the same time reverse tan and restore fairness.

The Formulation: The formulation contains TanSolve™ and 50% brightening cream. TanSolve™ beads are particles designed with varying size and shape to provide controlled breakdown, delivering scrub action. Tan removal scrub cleanses thoroughly and gently scrubs away the dead cells and daily tan restoring natural fairness. Hence, it effectively reverses tan and restores fairness.

055

How To Use:

Wet face, gently massage scrub onto face and rinse off. Do not use on delicate under eye area/ active acne/ irritated or broken skin.

060

PRICE:rs.160 for 100gm

056

PACKAGING:The packaging is simple with a white-pink flip-top squeezy tube.It is nothing fancy but sturdy and looks fresh and neat.The product information is provided at the back.

058

MY VIEWS:The texture of the scrub is quit thick but not very hard or the one that is difficult to work out.It is typical of those Pond’s face wash textures.The scrub with pearly white with pink colored scrub-particles/granules that dissolve into the skin once you start scrub the product on to the face.It makes the face squeaky clean and I definitely see it making a big difference as all the dirt,new tan is washed away.I have made this a part of my skin care regimen and use it everyday after exposure to sun.

064

However,I would like to tell that this scrub might not suit very dry skin as it takes away the oil of the face and I generally apply a gel based moisturizer or serum after using this.It has never broken me out.The scrub granules are very tiny and non-gritty.I have used this scrub even when I have small zits but it did not irritate them.I would call it more of a texture cleanser than a scrub as it lathers well when rubbed.

RATING:5/5

RECOMMENDATION:It’s a perfect scrub+cleanser for me these day and I use it everyday.The results are quite noticeable on my face and I highly recommend this to those who are mostly out in the sun.It might not be so much effective on old tan but I am sure it wont let new tan begin if you use it everyday.

THE FACE WASH- I have been a loyal user of Ponds face washes since 4-5 years.This face wash attracted attention because of the activated carbon factor which can remove dirt and impurities from skin and cleanse pores.

A small amount of product is needed and it makes my face look fresh and glowy!!It is mildly scented which is pleasant.It removes makeup effectively.

???????????????????????????????

RATING: 3/5

RECOMMENDATION: I like this face wash but don’t use it regularly.It is not a must buy as it is quite like other ponds face washes but good for oily skin.

Currently testing….

???????????????????????????????

I have combination-oily skin and this face wash removes all the dirt very gently,makes face very clean though not as squeaky clean as the ponds tan removal but I love how it makes my ski so soft and visibly clearer.It has helped in clearing out small blemishes.

It is slightly beige colored with blue minute beads that aren’t harsh on skin.

Planning to buy the bigger tube..

???????????????????????????????

???????????????????????????????

PACKAGING:Packaging is really pretty and looks great at the price it comes.It is housed in a white tube with hot pink band where BB cream is written ,a metallic cap.It looks pricey and very cute.A nozzle is provived for dispensing hte product which does help in controlling the amount of product needed.

???????????????????????????????

SHADE:There is one One shade available and i find it a big Con.It is a yellow toned shade.Althought it does matchees my skin tones after around 15 minutes of application but it looks a bit dark and grey on application.

???????????????????????????????

OVERALL PERFORMANCE:Now,coming to the overall performance.I must say,i am very happy to have this.I am not an avid user of BB creams as I like foundations but i was curious to have this because of its packaging.

The texture is thick almost like a foundation.It does cover minor redness,uneveness and provided a more pilished look to face as compared to other BB creams used so far.I loved the Garnier BB cream for the glow it provides but this one provides more of coverage and has a matte finish.

L: before,R: after

L: before,R: after  

You can easily see in the above pic that my face looks a bit dark and grey in the after pic but it has more evened out and pores are less visible.

It has a pleasant fragrance reminiscent to other Ponds products.

However, i would like to mention that the shade adjusts after sometime and I feel very grey when i put it.It has medium coverage and i generally use it eith Garnier BB cream as it find it a bit too matte for my liking.A moisturiser underneath is very important ad it will accentaute dry sking a lot.I find that my face looks very flat when i use this so i use a blusher after this.

It has to be blended a bit quickly as it dries fast.Also,my pores are less visible.

Staying power is excellent.I have worn this for maximum 9 hours and my face looked fresh after that too.

???????????????????????????????

PROS:

  • Pretty packaging.
  • travel friendly.
  • provides medium coverage.
  • excellent staying power.
  • adjusts to the skin tone.
  • great for oily skin tone.
  • provides matte finish.
  • pleasant fragrance.
  • very reasonably priced.
  • pores are less visible.
  • can be used as a foundation also.
  • has spf 30.

 

 

CONS:

  • the shade is a big con as it makes my face look darker but adjusts after sometimes.
  • the shade might not suit very dark skin tones.
  • the BB cream has to be blended quickly.
  • it is very drying on my combination/oily skin so a heavy moisturiser is needed for those having dry skin.

 

RATING: 3.5/5

 RECOMMENDATION: I adore this BB cream for its packaging and coverage but I wish i had some shade options.

Look…who’s there in my Stash<3 <3

So,finally i got hands over……………………………………………………………….

 

 

…….POND’S white beauty BB+.

I must admit that i wasn’t very interested in this earlier as i am not a fan of BB cream but the moment I saw this cute,girly packaging …I was game for it.

???????????????????????????????

On opening,the small(cutie,pretty,lovely) white tube with a metallic cap is all the more welcoming.

The packaging is far more pricey looking as compared to the price tag it comes at.

I got this for rs.69 fro 9gms.

???????????????????????????????

I got the smaller version first so that I can try and buy the Bigger one If I like it.This is a major pro with the Ponds and Garnier ones providing smaller packagings so that we can try and decide!!!

???????????????????????????????

I asked the lady at the Pond’s counter if it had shades as Natural Cover was written on it but it isn’t so.There is only one shade.I haven’t yet tried the shade but when swatched,it has yellow tones so I am unsure about its suitability across all skin tones.

???????????????????????????????

MY INITIAL THOUGHTS: 

  • very happy with the price.
  • In love with the packaging.
  • added 30 spf PA++.
  • mild fragrance.
  • coverage<3 ❤ ❤ <3.

 

 

Altogether,a truly wow wow wow package.

 

Looking forward to using this..

How about you???
