Oil Balancing Moisturizer

Spent decades using whatever cleanser was on sale at the pharmacy. Didn't realize how much better my skin could feel until trying this. No more tightness, no more over-drying - just clean, refreshed skin. I'm finally understanding what "gentle but effective" actually means.

I'd accepted that redness and uneven skin tone were just part of aging. I figured it was time to invest in proper skincare, and this moisturizer has made a visible difference. Skin looks calmer, feels balanced, and I'm not dealing with the shine or dry patches I used to. Wish I'd made the switch years ago.

I’ve used premium lines for years, so I’m picky about texture, lather, and how a cleanser rinses. This one genuinely surprised me. It lathers smoothly, rinses completely clean, and leaves zero film or tackiness. Light, balanced, and well-formulated.

After trying products across every price point, you can feel when a formula is done right — and this feels right.

I’ve used a premium product line for years, so I didn’t expect to switch. But this moisturizer checks every box: lightweight, absorbs instantly, keeps me matte all day, and doesn’t leave shine by noon. The scent is subtle — I’d personally prefer it a touch stronger — but the performance is what matters.

If you're used to premium skincare in the past and hesitant to try something new like me, PONOS earns the shelf space.

i like this product a lot because I have combination skin and this works well. It absorbs nicely into my skin and does not leave my skin oily or with a residue.
