With an exclusive vitamin B3 and C complex, this moisturizing cream from Mexico helps even skin tone and reduces the appearance of dark spots after 4 weeks of daily use.

WHAT IT DOES
Specifically designed for normal to oily skin, this daily moisturizer evens skin tone in 2 weeks, and reduces the appearance of dark spots in 4 weeks. It has also been shown to diminish the appearance of age spots and blotchiness as well as improve skin's texture.

HOW IT WORKS
It is formulated with an active vitamin complex: B3 to fight discoloration and uneven skin tone; and C for antioxidant properties that rejuvenate skin and reduce wrinkles. The formula works with skin to enhance its natural turnover process and barrier function, which can improve skin's visible appearance.

Pond's has made several products in foreign markets that's marketed to either whiten the skin (Pond's Flawless White) or that "helps correct dark spots" (this product). This product was made and marketed in Mexico to help even out the skintone. It's not per-say a whitening product like the Pond's Flawless White but I was unable to get more information from Pond's other than, "Unfortunately, the information that you requested is not available."

I finally finally found this at my local Target for $8.99. I know Rite Aid is having a sale on it as a Buy 1, get 1 50% off but the package I bought had two containers. The small container contains 50g (1.75 oz) of product while the larger contains contains 200g (7 oz) of product.

My thoughts. I just bought it last night so I haven't seen what the long term effects are but I can say that it smells yummy. It has a soft rose/powder scent, it's familiar but I can't place the exact scent. The texture is creamy and soft just like other Pond's products. It's absorbed quickly by the skin. You don't need a lot with this product, I used a quarter size amount for my entire face. It feels nice on my skin and my skin feels soft from using the small amount, I think that's because my face felt a little dry from the heater being on all day and needed that bit of moisture. lol
