A BB CREAM THAT IS TOTALLY OVER HYPED

Yes, this is a continuation of my last post. I had promised to discuss about two BB creams in fact, which are not really worth your money, and one of them is :

POND'S WHITE BEAUTY BB+ CREAM - REVIEW

The other one I don't have at my disposal because I finished it any swore to myself that I would never buy it again.
This BB cream is an inexpensive one, and suddenly I find that other bloggers are writing favorably about this BB cream. But I really don't find any reason to. The packaging is Pink and White (Patent Pond's Packaging) and has a nice smell, but that's just about it. It smells like POND'S COLD CREAM.

It is thick, thicker than usual BB creams. It has an SPF of 30+++.

It claims to reveal your perfect natural look. The writing on the cover says that it works from the outside and inside. This unique skin color matching fairness cream gives you a natural looking instant glow on the outside while working deep on the inside. Here are the swatches:

SUITED FOR:  EVERYDAY USE

PRODUCT FEATURES:

  • INSTANT NATURAL GLOW ON THE OUTSIDE
  • LIGHTENS YOUR SKIN TONE AND SPOTS FROM THE INSIDE
  • EVENS SKIN TONE
  • WITH SPF 30 FOR SUN PROTECTION
  • NO CLOGGING OF PORES
  • LIGHT, NON-OILY TEXTURE
USAGE INSTRUCTIONS:
  1. Use every morning on cleansed skin. It's light texture makes it suitable for everyday use.
  2. smooth cream over entire face and gently spread it in until the colour blends well with your natural skin tone.
  3. retouch as needed throughout the day.
INGREDIENTS: Water, Cyclopentasiloxane,ethylexyl, methoxycinnamate and many others.

PRICE: RS.125 FOR 18g but I got it at a discount at Rs. 116. A smaller tube is also available.

WARNING:
  1. Do not stay too long in the sun, even while using a sunscreen product.
  2. In case of any irritation, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.
  3. Store away from direct sunlight and heat.
VERDICT: The BB cream is not light, but quite thick in consistency and though it blends well, it does not work amazingly. I mean if you have spots on your skin, it works okay to conceal your spots, so it's better to first use a concealer and then apply this. It also makes my skin very oily within a short span of time. I would have loved it if it had been more matte in effect . Yes. it adds a glow to your skin but does not make it fairer from within and neither does it do much to reduce dark spots. So. though it is inexpensive, it is not really worth a shot. I will not buy any more BB creams that come for cheap. I'd rather invest in one that gives better results.
