Week ONE: POND’S Flawless White Light Infusing Under-Eye Cream | SwipeSomeGloss
11
Nov

It’s been a week since I met POND’S Flawless White Light Infusing Under-Eye Cream (whew) and as promised, here’s my early verdict! ;)

I compared the earlier mentioned eye cream side to side with my Bobbi Brown Hydrating Eye Cream experience and oh my! Our little tube of hope from POND’S is it’s “save” counterpart! ;) Save for the “whitening” part (which I doubt can give me results in one week’s time), I’d like to show you its moisturizing and “filling” effect though this before & after application snaps:


my eye area after a 12hour shift…without anything but eye cream

I intentionally sat near my good old fashioned tukador light to emphasize the lines around my eyes (which still, my mother does not understand why on Earth do I show photos of my icky, unmade-up self for all the world to see LOL). The top photo, as mentioned is the “before application” snap. If you look closely, you will see defined lines under my right eye. You know how moisturized skin looks like after immediately after application? Well, I skipped that step and waited for 15more minutes before taking the “after application” snap. After the elapsed time, my right under-eye area still looks supple! ;)

Another pro about this product’s its almost gel-like consistency. Yes, a cream that feels like gel, ladies! How lovely is that? I also use so little:


our little tube of hope on my left index finger

I use that much for both eyes. I deem that it’s totally unnecessary to apply a lot since it will just crease up my concealer. :) Oh do I use this under mineral makeup? OH YES. Save for my current dilemma of mixing up the perfect under-eye concealer shade (since am loosing my tan), this works just fine in making the concealer stay put.

So there you have it! :) I’ll post more updates in a week’s time or two. Grab your tubes and let me know if it worked for you! ;)

[…] The only two ingredients that are ear or eye friendly to be are allantoin which soothes the skin, and vitamin E that keeps skin young and supple, and upon research, niacinamide is one of the principal forms of Vitamin B3 that acts an an antioxidant and has anti-inflammatory properties. Well, this sounds promising! Another variant, which I am particularly interested on is the Ponds Flawless White Light Infusing Under-Eye Cream. It’s so hard to find good eyecreams nowadays, and I am in the process of playing with four brands right now - two high end brands and two mid-end brands. I am wondering on how this would fare, but fellow beauty blogger Phoebe was incessantly raving about this last Beauty & Minerals day that this item piqued my interest. You can view her Week 1 review here. […]

i tried lots of eye cream but nothing really worked for me. i hope you didn’t edit your pic. im gonna try it soon! :)

Save for cropping and resizing, I do not edit my photos. I abuse products to death and perfect application before taking shots. ;)

When my FOTD or EOTD photos look bad, I retouch my makeup then re-take snaps. :) When it looks really bad, I do not post at all ;)

November 24th, 2007

then the product really worked! i hope it works for me too. i’ll let you know. thanks!

i also like to ask, since you are a huge fan of mineral make ups, if you apply mineral foundation, is it a no no to use it with cheek tints? do u have to use it with mineral blush also? thanks so much. :)

crazybeautiful, I haven’t come across any successful product review on crater-like scar fillers just yet. I asked my dermatologist about it (cause I have a couple myself) and she recommends I undergo resurfacing. :)

Whenevs I want to use cheek tints, I put them before foundation. :) Just apply tad more if you’ll apply your foundation using the sandwich method. I don’t ff’up with a MMU blush but just use a highlighter (like Val Beauty’s CENTERFOLD…omg love this to death!).

HTH! ;)

@petite
It worked for me but do note that you have to give it some time. I’d say while waiting for it to work its magic, do top it with mineral makeup concealer like Monave Buttercup or Bare Escentuals Well Rested during the day.

thanks,,hope it works for me too…try it soon and I’ll be patient with the result…thanks again,,well take care and God Bless… ;)
