I think Pond's facial wash is the official facial wash of the kids of the 90's and at the same time, a tool for official girlfriend bonding. I vividly remember when my high school best friend and I would freshen up with Pond's facial wash every recess, and just talk about studies, families, our fave colors, exchanging stationaries, and boys. Oh, those were the days!

I have no idea what high school girls do in school and during recess nowadays, but I hope they engage in physical interaction and not just 'converse' through social media (Are mobile phones allowed in school nowadays? 'Cuz back in my time, it was forbidden). I hope they are doing precious stuff similar to our 'facial wash moments.'

It's good that Pond's Philippines is reliving this very personal tradition through #PondsBesties. Not only that, this campaign also aims to educate teens on how to get #AcneClearSkin.

Pond's chose 200 Student Ambassadors from top high schools and universities who shared their stories about personal transformation to inspire millions of teens to embark on a journey to pimple- free skin.

The campaign highlights Pond's Acne Clear White Facial Wash (P85- 50g; P155- 100g) and Overnight Pimple Care Gel (P320), two simple, easy-to-use products that you can pop in your school kikay kit and use anytime you feel that a zit is about to pop out.

Pond's welcomes Claudia Barretto as the new Pond's Girl

Pond's girl Julia Barretto is a living testament to the powers of Pond's Acne Clear White. As a user for three years, Julia says that it's what's been keeping her pimple- free despite her hectic schedule as a full- time student, actress, endorser, and icon. Julia shares her enthusiasm for Pond's with Bestie and sister, Claudia Barretto, who's now the newest member of the Pond's family. Claudia's so adorable! Together, Julia and Claudia will head the #PondsBesties campaign, and encourage girls to take on a journey to beautiful, acne- free skin.
