I hope they never discontinue or change this. My Holy Grail!
I was a big fan of a gel cream from Believe Beauty from the DG and it was discontinued. This Ponds Hydration formula is the best gel cream I’ve ever used. I have only been using it for a week and it’s already made a noticeable difference in the texture and tone of my face. It feels wonderful on and the scent is pleasant and light. I had a small patch of periorbital dermatitis near the corner of one eye and this is actually clearing it up too. My face feels hydrated even in the morning. I can’t say enough good things about this gel cream. I’m 47 and menopausal.

Light, fresh, and great for everyday hydration
Really refreshing and lightweight. It absorbs fast, doesn’t feel greasy, and keeps my skin hydrated all day. Perfect for daily use, especially if you have oily or combination skin. The gel texture feels amazing.

Strong fragrance but light moisturizer
When i initially opened it up i thought “wow thats a strong scent”. It fades a bit after application but i can still smell it on my hands. Its not a bad smell, i just prefer zero smells. Its light weight tho and a little goes a long way plus its cheaper than most other gel moisturizers so I’m keeping it for now.

POND'S Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin E & B3 Gel Face Moisturizer
I love this lightweight gel like moisturizer. It feels cool on the skin and sinks in quickly. It is very scented so if you are sensitive to fragrance on your face, this may be a little too much for you. Fortunately, fragrance does not bother me much and I use this after washing my face and applying Hyaluronic Acid. I have dry skin so I do not see it hydrating for 24 hours but it does feel very silky when you apply it.

Nothing particularly special or unique about this stuff.
It’s a serum-type moisturizer that works well enough, but it sort of looks like a mask because it dries a bit shiny (which could also mean I used too much, but I’ve tried with different amounts 3 different times and still had a shiny face and neck afterwards). It is lightweight, so it doesn’t feel gross like some greasy, thicker moisturizers, and that is always a bonus! I have too many health issues to count, which causes my skin to be EXTREMELY sensitive to a LOT of different moisturizers and such, and I hate to report this but it does seem to cause a burning sensation when applied directly after a full face wash. Re-applying, or just applying it a day/night later (after a full face wash) mitigates the burning sensation (which I assume is because the skin has produced a bit more of a barrier with natural oils? Just a guess though, I’m not a doctor so I don’t know 🤷🏽♀️). I do like the texture and the size of the pod! It makes it easier to store out of the way and doesn’t leave me feeling like I just coated on a bunch of sunscreen. All in all, I don’t think it is particularly “special” or some sort of New-Age Miracle serum, which seems to be the implication on essentially every “health and beauty” product. I’d probably be mad if I didn’t buy it on Amazon, because it was about 5 bucks cheaper than nearby stores, so YAY! I wouldn’t object to buying this again if it’s a fair price, but I don’t think I’d go out of my way to seek it out for purchase if it wasn’t readily available for some reason.

Significantly reduces oil production on my skin
I have several facial moisturizers in my collection because I belong to a review program where I get sent them to me to write a review and I ran out of my expensive moisturizer so I stopped using it because I don't have the money to replenish. So I was on the hunt for a new facial moisturizer, now I have very oily skin and no matter what I use I wake up in the morning with a very oily face and my makeup mixed with the moisturizer I put on my face after washing in the morning gets very oily throughout the day. While on my hunt I was searching Nina pools tick tocks for an affordable moisturizer for oily skin iykyk and she recommended this product because it's affordable lightweight and not greasy so I searched and searched and read review after review and decided why not give it a try it's under $10 well let me just tell you how great I think this moisturizer is, it doesn't leave my face greasy it doesn't sit on top of my skin it absorbs very quickly my skin is very dry but not over dry it's moisturized and dry I know some have commented on how strong the smell is but I find it very pleasant and not too strong and you don't notice it after a while anyway because it dissipates. Honestly I find this comparable if not better to the IT Cosmetics gel moisturizer but the difference is this one is way cheaper. I highly recommend it if you have oily skin that's hard to control. When I was a teenager I used to use rubbing alcohol on my face to try to dry out my skin to get rid of the oil I wish I would have known I was making it worse I didn't know you need to moisturize your skin is oily because it's dry and Flaky and your skin is trying to moisturize itself. I'm 40 now and have a whole skincare routine and learned that moisturizer is key especially a water-based gel. If you take anything from this review take the fact that it helps dry out oily skin while moisturizing at the same time.

I recently purchased the Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin E, and B3 Facial Moisturizing Gel for my wife, and we've both been impressed with its performance! The gel is incredibly light, making it perfect for daily use without feeling heavy on the skin. It absorbs quickly, leaving no greasy residue, which is ideal for those with oily skin or who prefer a matte finish. It provides excellent hydration, keeping the skin feeling refreshed and supple throughout the day. The hyaluronic acid does a great job of locking in moisture, which is especially beneficial in dry environments. Over time, we've noticed a slight brightening effect, which adds a healthy glow to the complexion. This is likely due to the combination of vitamin E and B3, which are known for their antioxidant and skin-enhancing properties. Overall Experience: My wife loves this moisturizing gel, and I can see why. It's effective, easy to use, and doesn't clog pores. If you're looking for a lightweight moisturizer that provides excellent hydration without the greasiness, this product is definitely worth considering!

Holy moisture!!! Bought both of these after seeing a Nina Pool video recommending this as a dupe to more expensive water gels (eg Clinique Moisture Surge.) I was not disappointed. I live in a very dry climate, and retaining moisture in my skin is a constant battle. I layer the blue one on before bed, and even on nights where I don’t use something more occlusive after, I wake up with amazing skin. I’ve been using the green (aloe) as a base under my makeup and it gives the perfect moisturized glow, and my makeup layers really beautifully on top. This is light, non-greasy, not oily, and I find it absorbs really well. Highly effective, and incredible value for money. I’ll be buying this again and again. The one caution I’d have is if you’re sensitive to scent, these may not be for you. The scent is very nice, but it’s very fragrant.

I was a tiiiny bit disappointed how small the container was compared to other Ponds products I've tried but a little goes a long way so that makes up for it a lot. I also can't complain all that much cause it's so cheap too which is great. I wanted to try something new cause summer has me so sweaty, my usual moisturizer just felt like it was melting off my face and I hated it so much. I'm not having that issue anymore. Could still be the case if you're like heavily sweating out in the sun all day but for day to day stuff like errands and workouts it's not running off like other stuff I've noticed. I did do a double take reading the packaging after applying it thinking it felt very slimy/soapy-ish on my face and I wondered if I had to rinse it. Once it sets in, it doesn't feel like that at all. It leaves the skin feeling very soft and hydrated. Will be using this from now on and probably use what left of my Ponds Rejuveness for bed time routine until it's out.

I love this product. I have acne prone skin and it has helped keep my skin looking healthy. Feels great on the skin. The only thing to note is that it has fragrance so it’s a great product to use when layering moisturizers.

I put the cream on and it felt great on my face but the smell was way too strong and I had to wipe it off after about 10 minutes. It’s a not a horrible smell, I am just a bit more sensitive to smell so this was on the strong side.
