PONDS clarant b3 Rave + Thank You MissButtercup

nodecaf — Tue, 04 Nov 2014 15:54:22 GMT

Ever since MissButtercup's post (THANK YOU!) regarding her new antiaging skin care routine I am seeing HUGE changes!

I duped the routine as close as I could (still deciding on cranberry oil & Kanebo sponge) and it is working!

My skin feels soft, smooth, even.

Here's a bonus (and I think the credit goes to PONDS B3), those pesky little milia bumps right on my lower lash line that derm rec'd to be extracted with a surgical needle (ouch!) are GONE!

Also, a flesh colored skin bump (nothing serious but super annoying) is GONE as well!

I'm loving seeing my skin's progress (plus everything is so affordable)!

I'm just greatful MissButtercup had shared her findings with us!

Get your PONDS on ladies!

Happy Fall! xo

I've been using the Ponds a little over a week and my spots look a little lighter. I'm also using a 20% L-Ascorbic acid serum (JJ Labs) and Retin-a. I have some cranberry seed oil on the way. I ended up ordering some from eBay. The seller has a store there and on etsy. The reviews on etsy were good and its was a lot cheaper than Dr. Jonathan's.

Thanks MissButtercup for sharing your pictures and routine with us:-)

Thank YOU, nodecaf! and thanks to MissButtercup too.

In dry winter months, I always use Pond's CC to cleanse -- I've been thinking of getting the Clarant B3 on my next shopping trip. I appreciate your recommendations.

I'd love the name of the seller (if it's allowed)!

My only hold up on DR. J cranberry oil is the price.

TIA

Please share the routine. I have some of those pesky white bumps that I need to get rid of too. Thanks!

This may sound like a juvenile question, but is that Clarant Ponds considered more a moisturizer or a treatment cream? TY!

WHAT? No huge price tag? No DR behind the scenes or in front of the camera? I LOVE IT! Pond's is awesome! Thanks for sharing such great results. With all the money we smart girls save think of the vacations or shopping trips we can afford. The best part: we will look awesome.

No, I think that's a good question. I am interested and want to try it. I just haven't found it yet. Will probably wind up ordering on line. But I don't need or want a moisturizer. I just want it for the treatment of brown spots.

Dr. Jonathan's $20.00 bottle of cranbery seed oil is on sale along with all his products this week. Or at least it was last week. Might have to double check on that. I received an e-mail that there was a 13% off Sale going on. They do different sales a few times a year, so if you are interested, you might want to sign up for their e-mails.

Also that "expensive" $20.00 oil lasts me from 6 months to one year. Not expensive at all, imo, compared to the $200 + serums etc. some women buy, LOL! And I know I am getting the best as far as how it is processed.

I have read about the cranberry seed oil but I am really not sure what it is supposed to do

thanks much

Target carries this product for $8.99. It may have already been said, but there is a normal to dry version and a normal to oily version. It is sold out in many stores but can be purchased online with FREE shipping.

After reading MissButtercup's post I ordered it from Target and it arrived today.

I was inspired and intrigued by MissButtercups post too, so I purchased all the items she recommended (except instead of retin A, I am trying the new mad hippie retinol). I have been using it for a few days so far and my skin feels very soft and nicer texture so far. I want to thank you so much for sharing it with all of us .

I should've mentioned that I got mine at WALMART (bottom shelf)!

Walmart did not have it in the "normal" section of skincare, but I found two sample bottles in the travel section, $1.49. I started this routine this week and am excited to see if the brown spots on my hands start to diminish.

Oh good. I see they didn't like my leaving you the information and zapped my post. LOL. I got my oil today and ordered it over the weekend so they ship fast. I hope it works good for me:-)

I found Pond's Clarant at Kmart in the facial skin care section for $8.99 with 10% off since the store is closing in my town.

I purchased the Normal to Oily Skin version since I have an oily T-zone. I applied it to clean skin and it doesn't look or feel greasy. I was pleasantly surprised! The perfume fragrance is pretty strong but dissipates quickly, thank goodness!

Thank you.

Thank you.

FROM MISSBUTTERCUP'S ORIGINAL POST:

AM:

Cleanse with either paulas choice resist cleanser or Cerave.

Apply timeless vit c serum

Apply ponds clarant b3

If wearing SS apply Neutrogena clear face SS

Then makeup ( using Neutrogena healthy skin enhancer. )

Dot dry areas with original eucerin. Using original eucerin in teeny amount on my cheekbones looks like a highlighter lol

PM:

Use ponds cold cream to take off makeup.

Use cleanser.

Wait 30 min and apply retin a if it's a retin a night. If not apply vit c serum. , wait then clarant b3

Wait 30 min and then apply pure cranberry seed oil all over, eye area included.

I also use Kanebo sponge chiefs I buy on ebay 3 to 4 x a week to gently exfoliate. The retin a dryness comes off well and gently in a hot steamy shower with this cloth.
