I have extremely problematic skin prone to every affliction under the sun from acne, blackheads and oiliness to dryness, ezcema and flakiness sometimes all at the same time!
In desperation I have tried every brand of face cleanser going, for every skin type; nivea, garnier, clearisil, simple neutrogena, liz earle naturally active( not cheap), boots own , superdrugs own, asdas own, tescos own to name but a few.
I had heard of ponds cold cleansing cream before but thought it was a bit old lady for me, and sitting amongst the pretty pots in boots it looked a little bland. But I was short on cash and ran out of cleanser so i though "What's the harm, its not like it could make my skin worse!"
So I followed the instructions on the back, you smooth it on with your fingers and then wipe gently with either cooton wool or a warm flannel. I did both gently with the cotton wool first and then the flannel. Amazing!!! My skin was truly deeply cleansed but not tight or dry, instead it was soft and supple but not at all greasy! :-D yay!
So I have cleansed morning and night with this for about a month now and my skin feels and looks better than it ever has! Such a relief from my high maintenance routine before. Just cleanse twice a day followed with a dab of Ponds Hydro- Nourishing Cream.
I would whole- heartedly recommend this to anyone suffering with fickle skin, it truly is severly under-rated, it has miracously re-balanced my skin, i now feel like i have normal skin! Went to work today without a scrap of make- up and actually felt good ( says the girl who only a month a go wouldnt go out without primer, foundation, two types of concealer and a coating of powder!!!)
And a £3.99 it's a bargain! :)
