I tried this dry skin cream to soothe my skin after it was irritated by another product. It has helped calm my skin down, but my goodness--the scent is SO strong. It's like baby powder combined with a bathroom air freshener. Are the ingredients in this product really so terrible smelling that they have to cover it up with so much fragrance? I really wish there was a fragrance free version of this because the smell gives me a headache and is really noticeable (someone said my face smelled like an old lady). Also, I noticed there is petrolatum and methylparaben in this. I think one, if not both of those ingredients are banned in some places for being bad for you. I do hope Ponds is being conscientious of that. And, please make a fragrance-free version of this for folks with skin and scent sensitivities!

I love using the ponds for my dry skin when i get out of the pool I get very dry and for being a swimmer it is a daily use for me. This brand is also affordable and anyone could go get it at your local drug store. I buy this very often like 2 every month but I but the small one and a bigger one every time.

I have been using ponds dry skin cream as a moisturizer since I was 15 I am now 54 .. I am very happy with it for my face as well as my body .. I go to the beach a lot and needed a basic moisturizer that I could slather on without fear of dyes or perfumes ... The only other item I put on my face is witch hazel and it cleans my facial pores better than any soap ever has.

My hands crack if I don't sleep with cream on them, especially in the winter. However, I am allergic to dimethicone...and sensitive to shea butter and citric acid. Try finding a cream that doesn't contain any of those ingredients! Good luck with that! I finally found it in Ponds Dry Skin cream. It took months of searching. Even if you are not sensitive to dimethicone, I highly recommend you avoid it. Yes, it makes creams and lotions have that "silky" feel, but I've read that it actually ages your skin in the long run. Unfortunately it is in everything these days ...hand creams, make up, hair conditioners. It's extremely hard to avoid. Thank God, Ponds left it out or I'd have to learn to make homemade hand cream. Ponds hand cream is superb at moisturizing the skin and it manages to do it with out synthetic silicones, like dimethicone. Thank you, Ponds!

My grandmother uses this cream it is very moisturizing and does not clog your pores it can be used on very very drying skim and give immediate results. It's non greasy very nice and besutiful.love the floral scent to this kind of like a perfume but very rejuvenating.

Before purchasing this product, I read the back and it stated it was non-hypoallergenic, and does not clog pores. This is false. I used this product for two days and skin severely broke out. It smells good, and hydrates my skin but the breakouts are not worth it.

For the past 5 years I subscribed and tried many commercial skin moisturizers over the price of 15+. Neutrogena, Aveeno, Olay, etc, but none has kept my skin truly moisturized long enough. It does leave a slight sheen after 5 hours-ish on my skin which can be dabbed off by a tissue, but maintains great moisture. I highly recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I suffer from dry, flaky skin, and have tried other more expensive products like "la roche posay" but ponds definitely beats the competitors. I do look a little bit shiny with ponds, but it beats the flaky skin i had before. ponds also spreads really well, and makes my skin texture look great.

Absolutely perfect. Formula is thick, but not to where you feel oily and sticky. I have normal to dry skin and it has prevented the dry skin around my nose from flaking and peeling. It also makes my skin look shiny and dewy without looking oily or too wet. Even if you use this product every day, you will not run out for a while because there is so much!
