Pond’s Acne Clear’s Lock + Clear Technology helps you achieve acne-free skin in just three days

Everyone wants to get clear skin and and acne-free face. I remember I dreaded the day when 3 pimples popped altogether in my jaw. I went straight to my dermatologist and had it injected right away. After that,  I bought all the medicines she recommended and used it religiously night and day. But with the right diet, hygiene and lifestyle, everyone can achieve an acne-free face.

The good thing is Ponds's launches the Pond’s Acne Clear’s Lock + Clear Technology last August 2 at SM Mega Fashion hall  with Pond's celebrity ambassadors Julia Barrretto, Claudia Barretto, Alexa Ilacad, Pond’s Beauty Bloggers Nicole Andersson, Kryz Uy, Patricia Prieto and Tricia Gosingtian.

The Pond’s girls demonstrated the simple two-step regimen to get clear and smooth skin. They also shared their own testimonials on the positive effects of this latest range from Pond’s by doing the 3-day #PondsAcneClear Challenge.


As modern life continues to evolve, the factors attributed to common skin conditions like acne are also becoming more complex and multifaceted. In a study conducted by the Pond’s Institute, increasing urbanization and pollution in the environment have led to the formation of dangerous nanoparticles in the air that are 20 times smaller than our pores. Coupled with changing diets and daily stresses of work, these changes in our surroundings wreak havoc on the skin, causing bacteria, pore clogging, and acne more than ever.

The study also revealed that as acne afflicts more Filipinas, more are also turning to unqualified sources for treatment advice, ushering in the need for effective over-the-counter dermocosmetic products that are accessible and easily understandable by consumers.

“More often than not, women turn to home remedies and regular soap to cleanse their skin and to try to cure acne,” said Dr. Peachy Paz Lao, Fellow of the Philippine Dermatological Society and Chair of the Dept of Dermatology of Makati Medical Center. “However, what they don’t know is  using a facial cleanser or facial wash instead in their first step of acne treatment is more advantageous. Soaps are alkaline while our skin is naturally acidic and disturbing this acidic milieu in the skin alters the skin’s normal protection against bacteria and environmental stress. Erosion of this acidic mantle also leads to dehydration of the skin leading to scaling and dryness.”

In order to address this pressing concern, Pond’s, the number 1 face care brand in the Philippines, formulated an innovative combination of Thymol and Terpineol (TT), for the New Pond’s Acne Clear product range. Imbued with revolutionary Lock + Clear technology, the new Pond’s Acne Clear is the first in the world to lock powerful acne-fighting Active Thymo-T Essence, which penetrates deep inside bacteria cells to clear acne from the root. This breakthrough helps acne-prone women have clearer, smoother skin in as fast as three days. “At Pond’s, we aim to develop products so we can equip Filipinas with credible, clinically-proven solutions and information that combat the changing environment,” shared Mian Datu-David, Unilever Philippines’ Marketing Director for Skin. “With the new Pond’s Acne Clear Facial Foam and Leave-On Expert Clearing Gel, Filipinas can now get acne-clear skin in just two steps, and in as fast as three days.” 

The new #PondsAcneClear Facial Foam and Leave-On Expert Clearing Gel are now available at all leading drugstores, supermarkets and department stores in the Philippines. Pond’s Acne Clear Facial Foam is available in 2 tube sizes: 50g – P 85; 100g – P 155, as well as 2 sachet sizes: 10g – P 15; 4g

These are surprising things that could damage our skin.  Sleeping with our make ups on, can clogged pores and cause acne to erupt. Skipping meals alone could age our skin faster and may result to dry skin, testing makeup samples at a department store which are not sanitized could harm our skin because of the bacteria found in the samples.  Not getting the recommended 8 hours of sleep and stress alone is the heavyweight knockout among others.  Not only can it cause blemishes, dullness, and rashes, but stress lines from facial movements will also ingrain in our skin over time.

But the number 1 skin stressor that we are not yet aware of is the constant exposure to gadgets that we are using,   studies on cellphone safety in 2011 concluded that cellphones were “possibly carcinogenic” and that the devices could be as harmful as certain dry-cleaning chemicals and pesticides. With that said, we should exercise extra precaution and most probably have ourselves checked up for possible skin damage.

Ponds PH recently unveils Ponds Institute located at the heart of Bonifacio Global City. The event was hosted by celebrity ambassador Ms. Iza Calzado last Feb 4 at the Top Shelf, Fully Booked, BGC. The Pond’s Institute offers a slew of services that cater to every Filipina’s skin care needs. Upon entering the institute, women can find out their particular skin concerns through the Skin Analyzer. With the results of the test, they can get a customized skincare regimen from Pond’s Beauty Advisers. What’s more---the Pond’s Institute offers free dermatologist consultations every Saturday.

“We want Filipinas to get the expert skincare and beauty they deserve,” shares Mian Datu-David, Unilever Philippines’ Marketing Director for Skin. “We invite every Filipina to discover what’s behind the doors of the Pond’s Institute, because we believe that the beautiful stories of your lives should leave a mark in the world, not on your face.”

This 2016, beauty and science finally meet as the Pond’s Institute opens its doors in Manila.

A global network of 700 researchers and scientists, the Pond’s Institute has developed over 200 patented skincare innovations for women around the world.


With the changing environment, recent discoveries reveal that skin damage is something that you can’t really escape. Every day, our skin faces innumerable pollutants brought about by urbanization---from dangerous nanoparticles that are 20 times smaller than pores and easily infiltrate the layers of our skin, to increased UV exposure by up to 85% through electronic devices, and oxidative damage that causes skin to degenerate; our skin has been taking a beating, and the effects are taking a toll on our complexion.

The human skin is simply not designed for the world we live in today. Now, more than ever, we need an expert solution to help our skin cope with and thrive in these changing times.
