Ponds Oil Control Skin Mattifying Facial Foam Review

From a long time, I wanted to review my favourite face wash but with so much work to do, I forgot about it. I have oily skin which requires great attention. It is important to control the sebum in the skin layers in order to prevent the growth of acne and blemishes. All we need is a perfect face wash that you can use at the end of the day to control the oil, dirt/grease and residual layers of makeup. Facial foams are my favourite as they happily clean my face and give that squeaky clean feeling. My HG face wash for summers and monsoons is Ponds Oil Control Skin Mattifying Facial Foam and I have been using this past one year.

My Experience With Ponds Oil Control Skin Mattifying Facial Foam:

Packaging: The face wash comes in a white plastic tube with a flip cap that shuts with a click. I have travelled with this face wash numerous times and faced no difficulties at all. The sturdy packaging is too good.
Color & Consistency: The color of the product is sky blue with minute blue mineral particles. The face wash has a creamy consistency which is neither too thick nor runny and requires very little amount. It lathers very well.
Fragrance: It has a soapy fragrance that gives your skin a great refreshed feeling after washing.

Performance: Ever since I started using this face wash, I am head-over-heels for it. Once you lather and apply thoroughly, it cleans up every speck of dirt, oil and residual makeup from your skin. It is not effective enough for removal of eye makeup but it does clean up a chunk of it. Oily skin is not at all a problem if you are using this face wash. The only problem is it strips off the moisture from the skin but I do apply a moisturizer so that problem is solved. I strongly believe that dry to normal skinned beauties should stay away from it as it won't suit them at all. In fact, I can't use this face wash in winters as it makes my skin dry. Overall, this is a great facial foam for oily skin people.

Final Note:

I know that it has some cons but the pros are much stronger. Moreover, it is clearly written in the pack that it controls oil and it does its job well. I have been using this face wash every summer and monsoon when my skin gets completely oily due to the patchy humid weather. Overall, this face wash has never disappointed me and I am more than happy to use it. The price makes it a must have facewash for the people with oily skin.
