I used to have bad acne. The lady behind the Estee lauder counter told me to use Ponds Cold Cream. I thought she was kidding. But I use it every day and it doesn't make me break out.

Alot of people have told me that. I just never belived them and now I have been using it for 20 years!

That's good to know! I just use Clean & Clear's Advantage acne cleanser and it removes all of my makeup pretty well. The only time I need something extra is if I'm wearing waterproof mascara. I use Mary Kay eye makeup remover as needed, but for ones in the store, I heard Neutrogena makes a good eye makeup remover. Just don't use these all over your face! Also, I use Clean & Clear's Dual Action Moisturizer and it also seems to remove any leftover makeup (like eye makeup that smudged down my face when washing).

I just read a makeup review at a most popular make up review website. The lady said she had bad acne and that Pond's cold cream has cleared it up. You can probably easily find her review from yesterday about Pond's Cold Cream. She puts it on, rubs it around until it liquifies and tissues it off followed by a "milky cleanser" as she calls it...can only assume she means like Cetaphil cleanser. She gives it a 4 outta 5 lippie rating and only because it only comes in a jar which I have to agree with because I plastic squirt bottle would be so much better!
