I didn’t think I would need skin care products until I’m probably mid-30s.  I did start thinking about it 4 years ago, when I was 24 and a girl friend of mine was 27 that time.  I slept over her place a few times and noticed that she was adamant on following her beauty regimen every night before going to bed and every morning before heading out to work.  She was already using eye cream at that time and I wondered why she had to because in my eyes, she had good skin and barely had any wrinkles in the eye area.

I also had the pre-conception that eye cream should only be used when you already have “crows” or wrinkles around the sides of the eyes.  I thought wrong.  I learned that skin care, particularly moisturizing, is essential as early as mid-20s.

Pond’s Gold Radiance, the Midas touch of skin

What’s New with Pond’s Flawless White and Pure White

About 3 months ago, I started trying out the Pond’s Gold Radiance line –first product I used was the Youth Reviving Eye Cream.  Noticeably, right after application, there are gold-micro particles in the eye area.  It does give the skin an instant glow… little sparkles that lit the eye area.

Most of the time, skin and beauty products are created to solve acne-problems and ageing skin.  But other than the top two skin concerns, women also battle with the issues of uneven skin tone and dullness.  How do we combat dullness?  When we were younger, our skin had that natural glow.  There was a shine that illuminated a youthful aura.  With stress, toxic environment, pollution and a thousand things on our minds, that young-looking gleam loses steam.

And no matter how polished our outfits or makeup are during our career-forming years, our face seems to not carry that glimmer that youth openhandedly bequeathed us. 

That is exactly what Pond’s Gold Radiance aims to resolve.  Pond’s Gold Radiance combines the perfect ingredients, successful formula used in their previous lines, with the benefits of Gold.  Pond’s Institute study of gold and its anti-ageing elements re-energize the lost radiance of ageing skin cells.  Pond’s Gold Radiance line is infused with 98.5% gold flakes, using real gold micro-particles, that make the skin rich and radiant without looking over-moisturized.

In this new range, Pond’s addresses the four dimensions of skin dullness: texture, color, evenness of tone and hydration.  It diminishes fine lines and wrinkles, existing spots and infuses skin with vital nourishment and stimulates its natural regenerative processes to restore the healthy translucence characteristic of fresh, young skin.

I think I still look young around the eyes so I can’t be too certain if Pond’s Gold Radiance Reviving Eye Cream stripped off years off my eyes… I did observe though that the gold micro-flakes/dust really provide an instant luster to my eyes, even waking up after a long night.

Three days ago, I started using the Pond’s Gold Radiance serum.  Nothing substantial to report yet but it definitely also has that immediate luminescence effect on the face and my skin seemed to be softer and moist to the touch too.  Let’s see how it goes in the next 4 days.

As mentioned in the previous entry, Tweetie De Leon-Gonzales is the endorser and face behind Pond’s Gold Radiance line.  While you recapture the radiance of youth with Pond’s Gold Radiance like Tweetie, get a chance to win of the three half karat diamond rings!
