POND’S Fresh Hydration Gel Moisturizer – 24 HR Hydration with Watermelon Extract & Antioxidants – Alcohol & Oil-Free Face Moisturizer – Dermatologist Tested, 3.4 oz

I have been seaching and searching for a moisturizer that checks all of my boxes since my favorite was discontinued about a year ago (Garnier moisture rescue gel-cream) and honestly, this is the closest replacement I have found. It is VERY similar in texture and feels great on the skin. Plus, you really can't beat the amout you get at a pretty great price! I specifically used to use the dry skin version of the moisture rescue line and I highly recommend to give this a try if you have also been searching for a replacemet for the same gel-cream.

I’ve been using the Pond’s Fresh Hydration Cream and I absolutely love it! It feels super light on my skin and absorbs really fast without leaving any greasy feeling. It keeps my face feeling fresh, smooth, and hydrated all day. I also love the clean, refreshing scent — it’s subtle but really nice. My skin looks more glowy and soft since I started using it. Definitely one of my new favorite daily creams. It is definitely worth the money. I usually buy the bigger size but since I was away for a holiday I ordered this one and it lasted more than I was expecting. Great size.

The smell is very pleasant. Like a watermelon mist, I would give it a 6/10 on strength of smell but it fades to a 3/10 after about 10 minutes. It's very airy gel type feel, soaks in fast and doesn't leave a oily looking layer on the skin. Im going to try the other kinds soon, but this one is very nice so far. I have somewhat sensitive skin and this didnt cause any issues for me.

Try this if you're looking for a an affordable upgrade to your skincare routine and don't know where to start. I'm 37F and haven't really needed or thought about it until now - I don't buy into the hype of all the expensive stuff until there are both good and bad reviews. This is less than $10, excellent reviews, and from a company which has been around since my grandma used it. Easy to put this small tub into your purse for when your skin is dry. The size is great, too, because it's small so if you decide you don't like it, you can use it all without waste (or toss it out). Smells amazing! Very lightweight. I don't feel greasy and I didnt breakout. Huge fan of Ponds. Thank you for the transparency!

I first tried ponds (with the light blue lid) years ago and loved it, one large container lasted me sooo long. I saw the blue version of this on @itsdaviannaa IG page and had to buy it bc of her honest reviews. It is lightweight, moisturizing, and the scent is not overpowering. It is a great value for the $ and it will last me a while. My skin felt so soft after using the first night; I’ve been using it day and night with no issues. Will definitely reorder!

If you have combo to oily skin you probably like gel moisturizers a lot. They are lighweight and wear very well under makeup. That is the case with this Ponds watermelon moisturizer. It is soooo good I can't stop using it. I tried the Aloe Extract from this same line and finished the jar already (that one is great too) and now I decided to try this one because I love all things watermelon, it is my favorite fruit. It is very midly scented, but if you don't like scented face products, even though it is very soft, maybe this cream won't be for you. It has a cooling effect that it is very pleasant. It absorbs quickly and it doesn't feel sticky. This is perfect for summertime when you don't want something heavy or sticky on your skin. I apply my sunscreen right on top and they work very well together. After applying this my skin inmediately looks better, fresh and healty. I will continue to buy this moisturizer for as long as it is available. Quality option at an affordable price. I would give it more stars if I could.

Pleasant subtle watermelon scent and light but long lasting hydration. Gives the skin a soft glow and you feel the cooling moisture when you put it on like your skin is getting a nice drink of water. A good affordable alternative to more expensive hydrating moisturizers.

The scent is light and it works well for my oily skin type. It doesn't leave my face feeling oily.

Great moisturizer!! Leaves the skin hydrated and soft. I’m not crazy about gel formulas in general as I feel like it just leaves your skin feeling wet, but this one I’m enjoying. It absorbs well, it gives a nice dewy radiance under makeup and the price point is great. The scent is not obnoxious and I don’t notice it after my makeup is applied. Definite repurchase or try another in this line.

Good hydration for face

LOVE IT!! makes.my skin so soft and smells amazing!

Plan to buy again and nice watermelon scent !!

This is a Glow Recipe dupe. I really really like this cream. It's reminiscent of a cheese cream with how thick it is, except it's not as sticky. It has a really wonderful watermelon scent. It is very refreshing, gel like and really smooths the feeling of your skin. The texture it leaves behind us very smooth, not sticky. Almost a dimethicone type smoothness.
