Ingredients
Water, Dimethicone crosspolymer/ Cyclopentasiloxane, Ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate, Glycerin, Caprylyl Methicone, PEG-10 Dimethicone/ Disteardimonium hectorite/ Cyclopentasiloxane, Isomerized Linoleic Acid, Caprylic/ Capric Triglycerides, Zinc Oxide/ Triethoxycaprylylsilane, Fragrance, Tetradibutyl Pentaerithrityl Hydroxyhydrocinnamate, Stearic acid, cholesterol, Mica/ Titanium Dioxide, Tocopheryl Acetate, Bisabolol, BHT, DMDM Hydantoin/ Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate, Linoleic acid, Borago officinalis Seed Oil, Disodium EDTA, Retinyl Palmitate, Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Butylene Glycol/ Carbomer/ Polysorbate 20/ Palmitoyl Oligopeptide/ Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, Coriandrum sativum seed oil.
The ingredients that make this night cream potent include glycerin, niacinamide, dimethicone, retinyl palmitate, and AHAs. Just a heads up – what turned me off is the fact that it contains parfum and other dicey ingredients that may irritate the skin.
Texture
The formula of this cream is milky white in color, and it has the consistency similar to that of whipped cream. It feels lightweight and non-sticky, so you don’t have to worry about this cream making your skin greasy. It spreads easily and also gets absorbed into the skin without any difficulties.
Fragrance
It has a mild floral scent that bothers me because I prefer fragrance-free skin care products especially when it’s to do with my night cream. The fact that it contains parfum is a huge letdown.
Efficacy
I applied this regularly every night for about a month, and I must say, my skin felt a whole lot softer, brighter, and more rejuvenated in the mornings. I have combination skin, and it seemed to work well on my skin type. I could see a subtle difference in my dark spots, and I believe the Niacinamide (which is a form of Vitamin B3) is responsible for their reduced appearance. It also provides the right amount of hydration and moisture so you can use it even if you have really oily skin.
The bottom line? I’m not quite sure if the Ponds Age Miracle fully works when it comes to fine lines and wrinkles because I don’t have any yet, but it surely does rejuvenate my skin, giving it a healthy glow each morning. It does contain some impressive ingredients but also some very unnecessary elements that can cause irritation to sensitive skin.
