myPOND'S 7-DAY BEAUTY BLOG

Friday, July 18, 2008

Aging came upon me through my vanity mirror middle of this year. For the first time, I noticed that fine lines and crow's feet were already creeping under my eyes and forehead. I realized that age is catching up on me, and I should get some NEW help since the anti-aging creams I used then look like it's not working.

I was looking for a new brand of creams when I saw Aileen's invite to Pond's A Taste of Beauty Event. I had fun at the event and, at the same time, learned more about its anti-aging product line called Pond's Age Miracle. I was wildly convinced by what I heard, so I tried the Daily Resurfacing Cream.

Here are the notes of my wonderful 7-day experience with Pond's:

DAY 1 - PEA SIZE
The first thing I noticed was its pleasant smell and shade of light pink. I put on a pea-size of cream and realized it was light on my skin and not greasy, unlike the others. I was also thankful that it has SPF, which helped me protect myself from the sun.

Day 1, July 6 - Right Angle Day 1, July 6 - Center Day 1, July 6 - Left Angle


DAY 2 - LOOKS PROMISING
Pond's passed my 24-hour test! I had no signs of irritation, break-out, or redness on the first day of application. It also blended well with my powder foundation, which I use every day. It is indeed very promising!

Day 2, July 7 - Right Angle Day 2, July 7 - Center Day 2, July 7 - Left Angle


DAY 3 - GREAT AT NIGHT, TOO!
I am used to moisturizing my face before I sleep, so I also decided to use Pond's at night. There's no rule that you cannot use day creams at night, so I gave it a shot. After using it, my face feels fresh and clean, and I noticed that my skin is becoming fairer and rosier each day.

Day 3, July 8 - Right Angle Day 3, July 8 - Center Day 3, July 8 - Left Angle


DAY 4 - IS IT WORKING?
I went to Cabanatuan to meet one of our subscribers, and my single status became a hot topic in one of the conversations. The customer, whom I met for the first time that night, gave me sound advice and told me not to lose hope because he thought I was beautiful. He even told me that I looked younger than my age. Wow!

Day 4, July 9 - Right Angle Day 4, July 4 - Center Day 4, July 4 - Right Angle


DAY 5 - BEAUTIFUL MORNINGS
Despite my lack of sleep, I was amazed that I looked radiant when I woke up. This was probably attributed to my improved regimen and twice-a-day use of the cream. I also noticed that the tiny pimples I had, even before I started using Pond's, are now dried up and all healed.

Day 5, July 10 - Right Angle Day 6, July 11 - Right Angle


DAY 6 - AN IMPROVEMENT
The picture on the right is my favorite among the lot. It was taken on the 6th day of Pond's use. I was tired and not wearing make-up, yet the picture turned out well. I also realized that there was an improvement in my crow's feet compared to how it looked before.

DAY 7 - HERE'S TO BRIGHTER DAYS!
After 7 days of using Pond's, it works well with my skin, and I will continue using it. It's non-greasy, feels good on my skin, and I can see that my face is more radiant than ever. It's always early enough to use anti-aging products. Just think of it as a "delay of aging" process, which I am sure you will not regret when you hit your 40s. With Pond's Age Miracle, I can see brighter and younger days ahead! Try it for yourself!

Day 7, July 12 - Left Angle Day 7, July 12 - Left Angle Day 7, July 7 - Right Angle


[Note: I've always been a one-angle wonder, so I used 3 different poses for this challenge to see the difference. You may view all the pictures on my Flickr.]

    ok, so my comment was a bit vague. i wrote "in fairness, may improvement nga! :)". i didn't think you needed any improvement on your face whatsoever anymore so yeah, the effect of Pond's turned out to be a pleasant surprise.

    unfair nga e coz you don't look your age na, now you even look younger than me pa. haha. walang justice sa mundo. booooo!

    hope you win this. :D
