My Opinion: - After all my blogger friends have reviewed the Pond's White Beauty All-in-1 BB+ Fairness Cream, I am finally here today to review it. This BB+ Cream comes in just one shade 'Natural Cover' which will not suit dusky skin tones. The packaging is very cute, a white opaque slim tube with a silver cap. Since the screw-on cap closes tight it is safe and convenient to carry it along during travels and also for touch ups. Since the tube is so slim, it fits the slimmest purse with ease. The fragrance is sweet floral, trademark of Ponds, very mild and girly kind.

























                       This BB+ Cream is thickish just like foundations but its light-weight. The texture is buttery but it takes time to blend, if not properly blended it will give your face a streaky look. I feel the best way to blend it in is to use your fingertips but right now I am using Oriflame Foundation Brush as I have a number of break outs. Well it didn't irritate my skin or gave further break outs. This BB+ Cream is very creamy and "oilies" like me would need to powder their face after applying this cream but dry skin beauties will love the creaminess. They would not require a moisturiser underneath this BB+ Cream as it itself is quite moisturising especially in the summer time. But in the dry winters definitely a moisturiser beneath this BB+ Cream would be a better idea.







                     




















                        This BB+ Cream gives an even look to my skin and the light under-eye circles are covered well. The coverage is sheer but can be built up to medium if required. It does not cover spots and other flaws but lightens them or you can say blurs them out. This BB+ Cream gives an artificial white cast immediately upon application which goes off in 5+ mins. The only shade Natural Cover would not suit dusky Indian Beauties, which is a big shame on Ponds. The BB+ Cream stays on for the entire day on my skin but it does make my t-zone shiny. I have to touch up with a compact/loose powder every 4 hours if I am in an air-conditioned environment and every 2+ hours if I am in a non air-conditioned environment.


























 This BB+ Cream gives fresh and even look to my skin. It conceals the redness around my nose and of my pimples. I have minor flaws and it hides them with ease, but I don't think this BB+ Cream will be able to hide dark spots or major flaws & imperfections. It gives a semi-matte kind of dewy look to the skin which looks very natural. But later on it becomes a little shiny/greasy and I have to dust my skin with a good powder. Even though it gives a whitish cast for the first few minutes upon application, later on it adapts to the my natural skin tone. This only shade 'Natural Cover' will suit fair to medium skin tones but dusky beauties will get a grey look. It is my go to product this week.





SWATCH- BLENDED
                     






















Pros:



* Easily Available and Affordable

* Sweet and mild Ponds trademark fragrance

* Evens out the skin tone and covers up
light under-eye circles


* Gives natural semi-matte glow to the skin

* Does not irritate my break outs in any way

* Gives a fresh and even look to my face

* Contains Ginger Root Extract known for its anti-ageing & wrinkle preventing properties


* Contains SPF 30 PA++, the highest among all the BB Creams






















































Cons:


* Only 1 shade available, not suitable for dusky skin tones

* Gives an artificial whitish cast which disappears after 5-7 mins, that's because of the SPF 30

* Does not cover major spots and flaws but they look lighter


* Needs proper & fast blending or it gives a streaky look




                 I rate Ponds White Beauty All-In-One BB+Cream with SPF 30 PA++ 4.25 and let me tell you this BB+ Cream is not even near our much loved Pond's Tinted Moisturiser. As for me I do not need too much coverage on a daily basis. It's a must try for college girls and office goers as it can give a fresh & even look without heavy coverage. But then the blending takes a little practice and patience. Nice BB Cream but nothing in comparison to the beloved TM.



Hope this review helped you in some way and do leave behind your sweet comments and also share with us your experience with Pond's BB Cream. Thank you and have a rocking weekend ahead :)
