My new favorite make up remover
I am completely obsessed with products; it's like a sickness and I always fall for the pretty packaging. I am a marketer's dream come true. I was at my grocery store a while ago and what do my curious little eyes see but Pond's deep cleanser and make up remover; basically it's another fancy name for cold cream. Now whenever I hear the word cold cream I think of like this thick greasy cream that you slather on your face before bed which at first turned me off not to mention that the packaging was very plain, but I was feeling adventurous and decided why not give it a try it's on sale anyway. It took me a while to commit to actually making it apart of my skin care regimen. My main concern was that it would be too greasy for me. I have combination oily skin and it doesn't take much to disturb the delicate balance of having normal ok skin to a huge grease spot that will soon be covered with pimples from my forehead to my chin. With these concerns in my mind I decided to use it to remove my eye make up and help clean up my make up around my eye area. It worked really good at breaking down my water proof mascara and getting rid of all my eyeliner. If I put a teeny tiny bit on a q-tip I could get all my eyeliner off and not have to wake up with those little eye boogies I usually get every morning that lets me know I did an awful job at removing my eye makeup. Well after the success with that I decided why not try all over to help remove my face makeup. It did great and breaking down all my makeup. Although the directions say you can wipe off the remainder of the cream after massaging it into the skin I felt more comfortable washing my face with my normal cleanser but overall it really helped to break my makeup down and made it easier for me to clean off. The best part was that it didn't really make my skin as oily as I feared it would this could be because I washed my face with my cleanser but I checked on the jar and it does promise to not clog pores and it's hypoallergenic as well so that was a plus. Overall I really like this cream and think it's perfect for the person that wears a heavy amount of makeup and wants a good way to help remove it before cleansing your face. They do come in other formulations for other skin types; so if you have dry skin they have a formula that is nore moisturizing than the one I tired and they have the Classic formulation which is perfect for normal skin types and all of the different products are hypoallergenic and are safe to use on sensitive skin. I think it's a great way to remove makeup and add moisture back into the skin at the same time. I have noticed how my complexion has become more radiant and feels cleaner. My grade for this product was an A+.
