I used Ponds as a girl because it was cheap, then went to 365 cream from Boots, being cheaper than Nivea. Then couldnt afford either so just used baby lotion, which I found just as good! No lines on face at 74, figure gone to pot!

It is Posie - right so that cant be it either. Prob your skin settling to your new cream maybe?

I havent changed moisturisier for about ten years and am too scared too as mine keeps the wrinkles at bay pretty well, but I imagine by changing your moisturiser to a richer one, your skin will probably need to adjust so the spots may not stay for long.

Maddie lol
i think we may use the same face wash lol
is it from boots ?
i think it may just be my face getting used to not being so dry lol
but we shall see

Posie it may not be the cream giving you spots, alhough your skin is now more moist. What do you wash your face with? I use a foam made with tea tree and witch hazel which is very affordable and although I moisturise in the morning at night I use a tea tree based night cream - I get maybe one or two spots a year - normally if I am about to come down with something.

pmsl sally lolo

well i have 4 spots today so im wondering if the cream should go in the pond lol
i'll use it for a few more days . my skin isnt so dry but i would prefere dry skin to spots lol

I always use Pond's Cold Cream.
Just not on my face! :)














I will now add : nor any other part of my body! I use it as a lubricant on my trombone slide! hehehehe

well i should hav ethe skin of an 18 year old then
cos i dont smoke and its always flioppin raining in newport

and i never had a tough paper round either

Smoking and the sun is bad for wrinkles.
My brother came over from Australia for abt six weeks. He looked younger when he went back. Lost his leathery look.

well posie
how you gona

ive just realised, grandaugthers already heard, she finds my handcreams or any kind of creams, and wants to put them on, on herself on daisy dog, on me, on bampi,

did you know ..
You should start to use moisturiser at an early age for it to take affect .

It was probably the same stuff in different jars.

Oh,and the vanishing cream didn't work!

Does anybody remember the gel that Ponds brought out to put on spots? It was very cold and stung.

I just looked, there are lots to choose from.
I remeber a pink topped and a green/blue.

Marion

sounds like ive reached the age to buy some then, think my face needs rescuing

tho if it only a tablespoonful in a jar how long does it last,

See, it works, made my double post go.

Vanishing cream ....... now I can think of a few people id like to see use that!! pmpl ....... Maddie has a colleague or two in mind.

mmm,vanishing cream lol

I didn't know there was still Pond's.There used to be two sorts as I recall,cold cream and vanishing cream.Now there's a concept to conjure with.

Must try it, see if it will make me look ten years younger ;)))). wont use it on my eyes though lol.

Wasnt there a thread ooh a long time ago on face creams? I think something from Lydls or aldi was limited in stock cos it won loads of awards and only cost a couple of quid? My nan used Ponds and had lovely skin - I wont stray from my Clinique though - too scared to change brands in case I grow old overnight lol.

thanks iris
