Pond’s Pimple Clear Face Wash : Review

I feel cleansers are superficial. They just are meant to be cleaning dirt, oil & some mild makeup. So I am not that much into pimple/acne clearing face washes, actually I never had luck with such face washes, with a few exceptions. Read on more to know if Pond’s Pimple Clear Face Wash, was able to make the exception.

Ingredients

Packaging

It comes in a white flip top tube with blue accents. Quite sleek & travel friendly packaging. Does not leak. I have travelled to Rishikesh with this tube.

Texture, Colour & Smell

It is a white coloured creamy face wash with heavy medicinal but bearable smell.

My Experience

I have found that the texture of all the Pond’s face washes is almost the same, just the colour & smell change. This face wash is supposed to be targeting pimples, hence it contains Salicylic acid. It is not a regular face wash, it smells like it has got some strong ingredients.

The texture of the face wash is creamy and does not lather much but pea size amount is enough to cover my face and neck. When I apply this face wash, there is little tingling sensation maybe due to the presence of salicylic acid. I quite like this fact. I feel that this is working on my face.

It washes away easily, no hassle to get it off the face. It takes away dirt, oil & makeup too, it is that effective in cleansing. I do not need any separate makeup remover generally, unless I am using some hard core water proof eye makeup. It stings badly if it gets into eyes somehow.

After washing face with this face wash, skin feels very matte, that’s how I feel after using any Pond’s face wash. Skin feels very taut and clear. But at the same time, my face also feel little dry which is quite expected from Pond’s face washes. I can never skip a moisturiser after using a face wash from Pond’s.

Coming to the effect on pimples, I feel it can prevent pimples from environmental factors like dirt, sweat & oil but hormonal acne is not much controllable with this face wash. Also, it does not help much in healing an existing pimple. I always use, Faceclin Gel to treat a zit.
