I'm pretty impressed with this product. Usually ponds clogs my pores but this is an entirely different kind of Ponds. Definitely recommend for undereye wrinkles... make sure you wear that SPF in the daytime tho!
I've been using a small travel size I purchased on the fly during travel. This cream us great. A little does go a long way. I've noticed a difference in my forehead lines and smile lines. Ive been using it during thd day but am going to switch to night. Will be looking for a bigger jar!

I really like this. Lines in forehead lessened within a few applications. The lactic acid is wonderful and listed high on the ingredient deck to make a difference, along with the collagen.
A little goes a long way...more is not better with this if you want to use under makeup. I use a little of this this under Clean and Clear Dual Action Moisturizer with good results under mineral mu. I am more generous with it at night when I don't care if little flakes from the lactic acid exfoliate.
I picked up the Clarant B3 to try that one out too.
BTW - I'm finding these 1.75 oz sizes at walmart in their travel section with the big baskets of travel sized products...at least in my walmart. I'd rather buy them that way for now. Seems fresher that way and they only cost $1.47. Couldn't get cheaper to try. And the size is ready to travel with too.

I have combination skin. What is oily, is very oily, and what is dry, is crinkly. I was starting to get the wrinkly, crinkly vertical lines down my cheeks when I smile from those years of suntanning. I warm the cream between my fingers then press it into my skin. Those wrinkly crinkles are nearly gone. I just wish this would come in a tube.

I picked up a trial size of this at Target and it has become my favorite moisturizer. It's affordable, doesn't leave a greasy feeling, and I'd definitely buy again.

This is truly amazing! Ponds claims it firms skin and visibly reduces the appearance of lines in 2 weeks. I saw results after 2 applications. Not joking. My skin is in decent shape, just blotchy and some fine lines. This really has the effect of a good primer, minimizing pores and some evening of skin tone. I see less red blotches too. It feels like it's going to be a greasy mess when you first stick your finger in the jar but it's not! My skin immediately looked more radiant. Has some good ingredients including collagen and aha's. A GEM. Only downfall is the crazy scent but I am happily dealing with it cause my skin loves it. Welcome back to my life and thank you Ponds! I will continue to examine more of their skincare line for sure!!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~ PRICE & AVAILABILITY ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ponds Rejuveness Anti-Wrinkle Cream can be found in some mass stores like Walmart & Target. Ive only seen these in my travel section in small sample size containers which are priced at $1.47 which i think is a good deal. Also, larger and cheaper containers can be found online on various sites. Amazon may be the best one. I'll just purchase mine in small containers that way Im not toting around this huge container. The price is great. Cheap and affordable.
~~~~~~~~~~ FORMULA & PERFORMANCE ~~~~~~~~~
The Rejuveness Anti-Wrinkle cream is a very nice thick cream that moisturizes and leaves my skin feeling silky smooth. It fills in fine lines and moisturizes which is what ive been looking for in a cream for quite some time. I use this as a face primer. I find it does exactly what ive been looking for in a primer. I do use my Hard Candy or other silicone based primers around my eye area and this around the rest. I place it on and let it sit for a minute or two and then apply my liquid/cream foundation. My face is not oily or combo its more normal to dry esp in colder months. I do suffer from eczema but not on my face area typically, thankfully. I do get dry spots esp around my eye area, and cheek areas so i needed something that would moisturize those areas while providing a smooth layer to allow my foundations to apply w/out flaking or settling in the dry spots. I think this is my new go to primer for my face. I havent seen if it makes my foundation stay any longer or less. Ill update on that when i have a day to watch and see. I dont notice it fading any sooner. This cream is on the thicker & more emollient side. Not sure how those with more oily skin would like this or not. I think this is a great daily cream for those w/ more normal to dry skin. I dont know how it helps with wrinkles as i dont think any cream could GET RID of wrinkles but this def helps erase the fine lines that causes makeup mishaps. It also leaves my skin feeling refreshed and smooth and not tight or dry. Some lotions leave my skin still feeling parched and needing more moisture, not this one. Its great to leave on over night for a nice dewy look to the skin. I love this stuff and glad i gave it a shot bc i dont want to be w/out. As with any skin product, i watch how much i use bc my skin can get used to it & it quits working (it may be only me but its odd) So ill continue to use this as my night cream on some nights and will def continue to use this as my face primer for work and day time.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PACKAGING ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Ponds Rujeveness Cream travel size jar comes in a small plastic jar with a screw on/off lid thats white in color. The jar is hard plastic, sturdy for traveling. The lid screws on and off easily. I am not sure how the bigger sizes look but im happy with the travel size. It holds a good amount of product & since so little is needed this little jar will last quite some time. Great for traveling too.
Overall, this cream has quickly become one of my favorites and it provides great moisture unlike most affordable creams ive tried. This is def a repurchase item when i run out. Would recommend to those with more normal to dry skin looking for something to smooth and soothe your skin. Its great for giving an even smooth surface for your makeup. Great product. Def interested in trying tho other Ponds creams that are with this one. I will update as i find out if this is made in the u.s. or mexico bc i know people say there is a difference like the Nivea cream. Either way, i love this cream!! Even better if there are long term affects. continued >>

I'm having a love affair with Pond's products since discovering them for the first time over a month ago. Even though they have been around for 150 years, shame on me that I always passed it up as an outdated facial skincare line that couldn't be any good since it was always so inexpensive. This cream is amazing. I don't know what it is about this line, but my skin loves it. I have never used moisturizers that have made my skin look so plump and youthful. Not even Olay (gasp!) and I have always trusted and loved Olay, but Pond's has outperformed Olay in terms of results in such a short period of time. My skin is brighter, clearer, smoother, and fine lines are really diminished. Performance and price seem too good to be true. But the philosophy of Pond's has always been to simplify a women's beauty routine and keeping it affordable.
This product has a powdery scent, so steer clear if you need something that is fragrance-free. I have sensitive skin, and at first, I was terrified of the scent and did not like it. But after the first use and the next morning I woke up and my skin was really plump! The perfume-y scent that I initially was worried about is now comforting because the results have been so positive! I was also scared I would have a reaction to the lactic acid or the other ingredients, but happy to report no breakouts, itchiness or redness occurred. Yay! I know trying facial products is hit or miss and everyone's skin is so different. Make sure you test a small patch out to see if you have a reaction to this because it is an AHA moisturizer. I would have stuck to just the Clarant B3, but I have read so much about using an AHA for exfoliation, I had to try this one as well. The only thing that may be an issue is if you apply too much, it does pill under makeup (my fault because I like it so much! Just apply sparingly, and no pilling will occur!) Right now I am using this over my Clarant B3 (normal to oily - which is very light so I use it more as a treatment than a moisturizer) at night only. Twice a day was too much for my skin. During the day, I use a moisturizer with SPF 30 (Aveeno Smart Essentials) because the back of the Rejuveness recommends that we do while using this product. The Clarant B3 helps diminish my discolorations from past sun damage and acne scars with the vitamin B & C. The Rejuveness helps fight wrinkles, moisturizers, and smooths my skin with the lactic acid, collagen, vitamin E and borago seed oil. I apply Nivea Creme around my eyes. On nights when I want to give my skin a break from the Rejuveness AHA, I'll use Nivea Creme (about 3 nights a week). This combination seems to really be working for me, but can be overkill for most people. I think if you find one good moisturizer, stick with it:) My skin is so dry and sensitive, I guess I have to go the extra mile. I do look forward to the ritual of applying these creams because it has made such a lovely difference.
If you have normal to dry skin (does contain mineral oil), and looking for one wrinkle-fighting moisturizer that sinks into the skin quickly, Rejuveness is definitely a good one to try. I think this jar should last about 3-4 months with morning and night application (twice as long if you decide to use this only at night!) If you take issue with dipping your fingers into a jar, you can always transfer it to a bottle since the moisturizer is emollient but not extremely thick. Another option is to purchase the 1.75 travel sizes as to have a new fresh jar every two months as opposed to 6 months. The price when I purchased this on Amazon.com was only $7.49 for 7 oz. Thanks to Pond's, all women regardless of their budget can afford to have beautiful skin! Even though I have tried high end products (Chanel, Clinique, Lancome, Shiseido, etc.) that have worked well, they have not outperformed Pond's. So my fascination with department store brands have lost their appeal pretty quickly.
My skin has never looked this glowing and smooth and just by using an inexpensive drugstore brands! These Pond's products from Mexico are so amazing. Unless something weird happens to my skin (I'll update if I develop any reactions down the road), I'll be using this for the rest of my life for sure. I guess the key to beautiful skin is always making sure it is well hydrated, and using the right moisturizer(s) are key. I'll always trust my face to Pond's and Nivea. Wouldn't you know it, they are the oldest brands around... I guess there's a reason why!
