    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product seems to help with dryness on my face pretty well. However, I do not like the consistency of this product. The scent is good. Not bad for sensitive skin. Like the packaging and ingredients seem good.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the feel of the product, did not leave my skin feeling greasy or gross and I thought it felt very hydrated even after first application. I think it has a pleasant smell. I feel like there is a difference in my skin. It’s a great product for its price point.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wasn’t expecting this Pond’s moisturizer to hit like it did, but … it’s so good 😩💧 It’s super lightweight, feels like water on the skin, and my face just drinks it up! I have combo/sensitive skin and this didn’t clog me, burn me, or break me out. Just smooth, hydrated, glowy skin. It’s got hyaluronic acid, Vitamin E and B3, which is everything for hydration and brightening — and it honestly makes my skin feel bouncy and fresh without being greasy. High end feels. If you’re looking for a non-sticky, cooling gel moisturizer to wear under makeup or just keep you hydrated all day — this is the one. And it smells fresh but not overpowering. 4/5 for fragrance. Not a fan of fragrance in my skincare.

    I liked this moisturizer. It absorbs easily and I thought it did a good job with keeping my skin hydrated. If you prefer gel moisturizers than this is a good one. I will say though that it does have a strong scent to it so keep that in mind if you are sensitive to fragrances. I received this sample in exchange for my honest review.

    I absolutely love this moisturizer! The gel formula feels incredibly lightweight and refreshing on my skin, and it absorbs quickly without any greasy residue. My skin feels instantly hydrated, soft, and smooth after each use. The combination of hyaluronic acid, Vitamin E, and B3 seems to be working wonders, as my complexion looks noticeably brighter and healthier. It's a fantastic daily moisturizer that provides long-lasting hydration and a lovely, dewy finish. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a simple yet effective way to boost their skin's moisture.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Smells very fresh, and I really liked the consistency of the cream. It’s perfect for applying after sun because it absorbs so quickly and lightly. I just honestly don’t find myself reaching for it so it’s not a must have in my opinion.

    I received a free product from Ponds. I struggle with dry skin and finding a product to help. I absolutely love this moisturizer! It almost feels cooling when applied and feel like it is working instantly. It soaks into my skin quickly and is easy to apply. I love the scent of it as well. It is not overpowering but a nice subtle refreshing scent. I will continue using and purchasing this product for a long time!
