PONDS BB Cream in Beige

I have been using Ponds since college and I must say that it is proven and tested.I was happy when they launched the BB Cream. And didn’t expect that it works really well on me, In fact this was already my 6^th tube.

PRICE: It retails at P299.00 but today August 28, 2015 until September 1, 2015 they have 50% OFF.

I got it for only P149.00 such a steal.

INGREDIENTS:

I like the metallic pink tube though it feels like it contains a small amount of product inside.Or the tube is too big?It comes in squeezable pack which I don’t find it messy to use and it also helps in controlling the amount of product .

The texture is somewhat liquid-y and build-able

A pea size amount is enough to apply half of the face BUT it always depends with the type of skin.Will discuss more of that as you go on reading

On this photo you will see a not so visible changes but more of a glow on the skin.

BB Cream or also known as blemish balm,blemish base or simple beauty balm has a light coverage. This does NOT work like a foundation.Expect a no medium to full coverage when you use this but more of a Natural finish. Best for a “No Make-up” make-up look.

Here’s how it looks on me  

OVERALL VERDICT

Very affordable P299.00

Available nationwide

glides on smoothly

not too thick and not too liquid-y

a few zits is necessary to provide coverage as it cannot cover the imperfections but more of the redness

has a light coverage – it can only cover the redness around my nose except the visible veins on my cheek (what more to those with major acne/pimples)

Has SPF++ sunscreen protection

It provides a natural glowing skin

Good for those with normal to combination skin

I love the floral scent – not too strong as it fades

my makeup looks fresh the whole day except for the areas that is oily (my t-zone and cheeks)

Using a blotting paper will help but re-application of setting powder is not necessary

I like the formula though quite sticky but sets after few seconds unlike other BB creams that is really irritating on the face

Expect that it is NOT matte

Not recommended for those with oily skin because of the light dewy finish

Good for every use

applicable for those who don’t prefer full make up

I don’t breakout
