Is Pond's Cold Cream safe to use every day (moisturizer, face)?

i have very, very dry facial skin and i'm trying to get it back to normal but Cold Cream and Petroleum Jelly are the only two products that work well for me so i'm curious if these 'emollients' are good to use every day for dry skin. any feedback would be very, very helpful. thank you.

Is Pond's Cold Cream safe to use every day (moisturizer, face)?
Girlfriend, you've gotten a lot of misleading advice on here...





You should know that cold creams are not moisturizers and are used to remove makeup, but, they don't thoroughly remove all the impurities and environmental aggressors at that. The best thing for removing makeup is to thoroughly cleanse your face followed by a toner, every morning and every night before bed. And last by not least apply a moisturizer (this protects your face from more dirt and oil). What is your current skin regime?





I personally used to use Ponds every night before bed and it's not the best, not even for it's purpose. I now know better. I use and love BeautiControl's M.R.P (maintenice, repair and protection) approch to skin care. My skin is super soft! BeautiControl's skin care is simply the best, just ask me why! And by the way BeautiControl has been around since 1981...





I recommend (from what I know about you so far) for your specific issues: Cell Block-C® P.M. Cell Protection (It's like a cold cream but, so much more) http://www.beautipage.com/Catalog/skin_d... %26amp; a really good moisturizer, like Skinlogics® Moisturizer (for those whose skin is acting in it's 20's). http://www.beautipage.com/Catalog/daily_...





BeautiControl has skin care for everyone's idividual skin needs. If you have acne-prone skin there's a skin care set for that and if you have very sensitive skin (your skin gets easily reddish) there is skin care set for sensitive skin too. To get even the best results out of your skin regimen, I highly recommend selecting the best BeautiControl skin care regimen set for your skin needs. E-mail me and I will help you!

Reply:I used to use it everyday... nothing bad came of it.
Reply:According to the instruction on the jar it is.
Reply:They're fine to use every day, so long as your skin is not sensitive to them. Personally, they make me break out. Best moisturizer I have ever found was LacHydrin (prescription).
Reply:It should be alright. Also do not use soap, use something like Cetaphil to retain moisture.

try clinique moiuster surge extra: thirsty skin relief. it works SO well. it'll keep your skin hydrated forever, is oil-free so it won't clog pores and isn't too heavy or thick.





it's not too expensive, it comes either a jar or bottle with a spray-head. the jar is meant for applying before make up and is $31 and lasts forever, while the bottle is meant for quick touch-ups when you're feeling too dry, and the bottle is $20. i would really suggest getting the jar, i take mine EVERYWHERE!





next time you're at the mall, stop at the clinique stand and tell them a friend reccommended you try it, and you want to try it for a few days before you buy it. they'll give you a sample to take home.








hope you like it!
Reply:ponds cream is good. but try dove soap daily its good
Reply:That is so old skool but my mother swears by it. I'd kill to have skin like hers. Ponds doesn't work for me but I guess you can give it a try.
Reply:My mother used it all her life(she is 80) and hardly has a wrinkle. I am 58 and have used since I was 14 or 15 and I have young looking skin. I think it is good to use. The best thing for removing makeup
Reply:That stuff would clog my pores. But I have very oily skin. I'm sure its safe for you since your skin is so dry.
Reply:I've used petroleum jelly before since i have such dry skin especially in the winter time and it works wonders, it's just hella icky and my face feels really heavy; so i stopped using it...Burt's Bees products have great face stuff too and have enjoyed using them
Reply:Forget petroleum jelly...that is made from some of the same chemicals as gasoline...petroleum!! Cold cream is made to remove makeup and other facial debris.





Go natural with Extra light virgin olive oil. Soothe it over your skin and rinse off excess. You can also use this as a bath/body oil.





Also not drinking enough fluids can make your skin dry.

Reply:well when i had gotten back from spain durning winter my skin got so dry so wat my mom told me is to put butter on for 30 minutes and wash it in the shower.........
Reply:YEP! also try Oil of Olay
Reply:Im not sure about the Ponds, but try olive oil. The more natural the better. Dont use it in the day time, rub it into your face at night before u sleep ur skin should be soft and supple in no time at all.It also helps to prevent germs and bacteria. Its wonderful stuff, also if u wax, rub it in afterwards, it stops those little pimples or red spots from appearing the next day.
Reply:try this product and you will never use anything else again
