Pond's Lasting Oil Control Vanishing Cream

I love this product it’s great for summer time especially for oily /combination skin. I don’t like the fact that after a while of using it , my skin starts drying out and getting white flaky patches. I wouldn’t recommend it for winter use .

quite a fan of this works very well to control skin oiliness, it leaves face looking matte and lasts through the day

This product is the reason my face looks so radiant and elegant. its reduced my shine and prolonged my light , even and soft tone. :) . i dont think i'll ever use anything else

I used this once as I know so many people who live by this product however it dried my face out and left me with some marks on my skin. I have sensitive oily skin .

Ive been using this for years simply because I dont like my face being shiny and this definately gives you a matte look and extracts the shine and oilyness . Be careful about the amount that you use as it can leave white skid marks so rub it in well . If you are someone who sweats in the face quite easily especially in summer , this wouldnt be the best thing to use .

This product did not work for me , it dried out my skin and left it flaky i was very upset with this product !!Its cheap but does not do the job

I'm not a fan of the powdery consistency of this cream. It leaves a white residue on the face and even if you think its blended out/absorbed in to the skin, more white spots appear during the course of the day.
I have extremely oily skin so I think I'm a good candidate to use this product, however it didn't work for me.

I can't really complain about the packaging, its cute.

While the price is great - the product is just so bad!

I bought this thinking it will be my #1 solution to my oily skin, but I was so wrong.

The cream has a weird lemon-ish scent and a strange powdery consistency. You have to prep well with serum and moisturiser, else this will just crumble right off.

You also have to work fast or you will end up hella patchy. I hate the way my foundation applies over top - it completely causes other products to drag and not blend out.

I also hate how it feels on the skin - everything turns kind of emollient after a few hours. I don't find that it controls oil at all.

Don't waste your money!

I really like this product! i could notice over night my freckles fading over one week almost all the freckles that i got from the sun were gone! its affordable and you can find it at Spar.

I used this when my skin had a super oily moment - it isn't great to use daily, as it can actually dehydrate your skin, but used on days when you REALLY need your skin to control itself, and your makeup to last, it's a lifesaver!
Plus it's cheap as chips, and you can buy it at Spar!

I was introduced to this product a long time ago. It is effective and came in very handy to me when i had pimples. It dried up my pimples and decresed the redness of my face. If you have really oily skin, this product will do wonders for your type of skin.

This is a wonderful product.
I have always had problems with oily skin and this product makes it all a myth. Goodbye oily skin,thanks to PONDS

Perfect for oil control! The normal to oily works really! Helps to control oil throughout the day at an affordable price

I really like the packaging. It's cute and compact. You can keep it in your handbag daily if you want to.

I don't know how to describe the scent but if you're familiar with the ponds products then this scent will be nothing new to you.

It controls shine very well on me but the effects don't last all day. By the end of the day I've got a slight glow up but I don't mind that at all. For health to show, one must glow ?

You have to apply it really quickly as it dries up quite fast once it comes in contact with air.

Make sure that you close the jar properly else you'll end up with dry cream.

Not suitable for sensitive skin.

It's reasonably priced and easily available. My only issue with this cream is that it doesn't contain spf. I'm a big fan of moisturizers that contain sunscreen. Im just one of those people who would rather have a shiny face that's protected than a matte face that's exposed to harsh uv rays.

My mum used to use this moisturiser and it dried her skin terribly which is weird because she has oily skin. Her skin became ashy looking and flaky and this just didn't do her justice. I decided to try it once my moisturiser was finished and I was very unhappy with the results. My skin felt taut and weird when I smiled and it left a whitish residue on my face. #unimpressed

Its been three weeks since ive been using this cream,thanks to BB.I really love this product,i have really oily skin,and this cream keeps me matte for longer hours,and reduces the oilyness on my skin.If your skin is dry this is not for you.Otherwise im happy with the results,and im glad to announce that i havent been wearing make-up since i started using this product thats how confident and how lovely my skin is now.

This product was my life saver in my high school years and its quiet affordable

I have oily skin,so when i buy face products i always duck the ones that are oil-based.I received this product from Beauty Bulletin and i must say that it is one of those products i never saw myself using.But to cut the long story short,ive fallen in love with this cream, it leaves my skin matte for many hours,it smells good and also blends well with my skin.I think i'll be adding it to my every day regime.Thanks BB :)

My skin is very oily I thought this one could help but I didn't work out for me.

Pond's never liked me

I've used this cream before but my skin tone just get dull & I discontinued using it but I guess it works on certain skin types not a bad product at all.
