Ponds Pure white face wash review

Ponds Pure white Face wash with activated carbon






What Ponds say about their new facial foam ?
Ponds reveal its little black beauty secret with its new powerful Pure White facial foam ! It has the technology of activated carbon that attracts the deep seated "black" dirt caused by impurities,oil and make up to reveal a Pure white you.
It is the first of its kind to be formulated with activated carbon which works with "black attracts black" . Carbon , when heated or "activated" becomes 8x porous ; hence increasing its ability to detoxify and gently exfoliate dead skin cells while retaining the needed moisture.


With Ponds White Facial Foam you skin has never been this pure and white ! Thanks to the power of activated carbon.



Price - Rs 75 for 50 grams


I have been using this Face wash since last month and frankly , its the best I have tried till date . I have combination oily skin which is prone to acne . It comes in a sturdy and compact squeezy tube which looks quite sophisticated in my opinion .
Its a creamy greyish coloured  face wash which immediately lifts away the excess oil and the dust in one wash . My skin felt squeaky clean and fresh . A great face wash for oily skin and a boon for the people living in a city like mine , full of dirt, humidity and pollution.
Fairness claims - Scores Zilch. Nothing can make you fairer but it indeed has cleared up my skin , my skin looks brighter and clearer and LESS OILY too . YAY !! . I dont think it works miracles on existing pimples but prevents further breakouts .
Oily skinned ladies , Try it out . it wont disappoint you .
I normally use it before going to bed .

Wont recommend it for dry and mature skin . Works best for oily skin with occasional breakouts . People suffering from aggravated acne , Stick to the medicated / herbal face washes.

Good day :)

Available in 3 shades 
  1. Sheer Ivory
  2. Sheer Rose
  3. Sheer Honey
I use sheer Rose (02) But have repurchased it and now using honey(03)
Sheer rose has Pink undertone while Sheer Honey has yellow undertones.Stupid SA fooled me into getting the Rose shade :(
I have combination oily skin and it doesnt make my skin oilier. 
Pros
  • Its is a 3 in one product - a sunscreen(has SPF 15),moisturizer and Tinted TM
  • No breakout whilst wearing it , so YAY !
  • Offers just the perfect coverage,nor too heavy neither too sheer
  • Blends like a dream
  • Dries up to a dewy finish
  • Very versatile-You can apply it using a stippling brush,foundation brush or even your hands
  • I sometimes use it to brighten my under eye area and it works !
  • I love the price 
  • My skin is softer and appears smoother when I use it
  • Comes in a tiny cute bottle,very portable 
  • the bottle dispenses just the enough product
  • Doesn't grease my skin up
  • Stay on for a decent amount of time 
  • The shade sheer Honey is perfect .

Cons
  • May not suit well for people seeking High coverage.Anyway its not a foundation.so it really won't be a con.
  • Dry skin fellas might loathe it. But my other Blogger friends with dry skin love it.
  • It is NOT a substitute for Sunblock
  • Not very long lasting.I have to set it with a powder and be ready for mid-day touchups
  • Limited shade selection. 
Will I repurchase ?
Of course .I'm on my second bottle :)
Btw I dropped at Ambience Mall on Saturday.Got my skin checked at Clinique, I have combination-oily skin contrary to what I think .I used to believe I have VERY oily skin .
Also did some shopping at Nine West and Aldo.I got THE killer Black stilettos :D
