Along with Pond's Flawless White Whitening Expert BB+ Cream SPF30 PA++ in Light, Pond’s is pleased to reveal the latest shade addition to the BB+ Cream family, Pond's Flawless White Whitening Expert BB+ Cream SPF30 PA++ in Beige. The best bit is that it's been expertly designed and formulated for morena skin, something every Filipina should be very proud of. It makes a perfect fit for those Pinay-na-Pinay beauties with dusky skin or chinitas with yellow-tinged complexions. This means that morenabeauties now have a BB cream option that is suited to their specific skin needs.
The brand has been perfecting the skin of generations of Filipinas for over 160 years now and when they launched its Pond’s Age Miracle and Flawless White BB+ Cream with SPF30 PA++ in 2013, women instantly fell in love with the wonder balm’s spot-concealing and glow-enhancing properties. I'm pretty sure that the latest shade of this revolutionary BB Cream will definitely sweep ladies off their feet.
Claims:
Instantly spot-less and always radiant skin! Pond’s BB+ Cream helps provide effortless natural bare-faced look with instant natural coverage and it lightens from within. It addresses women’s cosmetic and skin care needs by providing a sheer veil of coverage, by masking imperfections and blemishes, and by protecting from the harmful effects of the sun.

Packaging:
The packaging looks similar with a large twist lid in shimmering silver, but the color is different. Flawless White has glossy pink and silver color, while the Age Miracle has bright red color. I’m a sucker for glossy and shiny packaging so I was definitely drawn to these pink beauties. It is by far my favorite packaging of any of the BB creams I've used. It comes in 8g and 25g tubes so you have more buying options. The pointed tip and nozzle is quite small so you can easily control how much you want to use. The tube is small enough to put inside the purse or bag, perfect for busy and always on-the-go women.

Shade options:
There are currently 2 shades available for Pond's Flawless White; Light and Beige, the new shade for morenas or skin with yellow undertone. On the other hand, Pond's Age Miracle comes in Light shade which is directed towards aging or 30+ women (Ouch!) matches my skin tone perfectly. It’s not as white as Flawless White, and it gives more dewy finish. There's quite a difference with color when blended so I'm not quite sure how the color would work for people who are somewhat in between.

SPF and Formulation:
They all have SPF 30 PA++, which is a plus for me cause I won’t have to worry wearing them in the sun! I'm 33 and I don't want to have wrinkly skin and fine lines by the time I'm 40! Seriously! :) The GenActivTM cover formula, which is packed full of vitamins leaves skin more even-toned after each application.

Consistency and Ease of application:
It's very easy to apply and it has a creamy, lightweight consistency that glides on smoothly. The Beige is quite yellow-toned and because I have a neutral to warm undertone, it's a little too dark for my skin when I first applied it. But when applied using a foundation brush, it blended in perfectly well with my skin, leaving my skin a more matte finish without being chalky, which I like. It's also perfect on those days you want to look fresh or let your skin breathe and not look "made-up."

Coverage, Staying Power and Oil control:
In my opinion, it offers more than enough coverage as I don't need to apply concealer to any blemishes or dark circles under my eyes, but that obviously depends on what condition your skin is in. It's also the perfect primer for those that need or want extra coverage.
