Ponds Cold Cream

Hi,
Just wondered if anyone has experience of using Ponds Cold Cream. Thinking of giving it a go, mainly because I've been watching that series about Zelda Fitzgerald on Amazon and fancy flouncing around in a whispy negligee, dumping myself at a beautiful dressing table, and rubbing cream into my face like a 1920s film siren (wannabe).
Also, I think it's one of those products where people say it's all their 98-year-old-granny-wi'-ne're-a-wrinkle has ever used.
About to embark on roaccutane which will dry my skin, so thinking something nourishing might be good.

I've always had pretty decent skin until the bloody menopause!!
Spent a fortune on lotions and potions and none really worked for me.
So I really went back to basics..started using Ponds Cold Cream to cleanse at night and their moisturiser, mornings I just use baby soap. I'm now about 5 months in and breakouts have stopped, tone is better, pores reduced and I've actually left the house without foundation!!😳.
I think it really is a case of just finding what's good for you. It's only taken me about 30 years!!

Avenue make some excellent products for extremely dry skin, which were my saviour when I was on Roaccutane. Seriously, nothing else came close to abating the dryness.

That should be Avene, not Avenue!
