  • PRESS RELEASE

Pond's has introduced a new generation of the face analyzer device, featuring new technology aimed at determining the needs for healthy and glowing skin.

The Pond's Face Analyzer detects and analyses the condition of the skin tested, before recommending the most suitable Pond's skincare products for the consumer. The Pond's Face Analyzer is now available at major retailers throughout the GCC.

Iain Potter, Home and Personal Care Vice President, North Africa and Middle East for Unilever, said:
"The Pond's Face Analyzer is a unique device featuring pioneering technology that was discovered at the Pond's Institute in New York. This device provides accurate analysis of the skin which is not visible to the naked eye. We want consumers to find long lasting solutions to their skin problems therefore we encourage them to try the Pond's Skin Analyzer and get the complete examination for their Facial skin."


Potter Added, "The Pond's Face Analyzer has integrated software that combines measurement tools to determine moisture, sebum (the semifluid secretion of the sebaceous glands, consisting chiefly of fat, keratin, and cellular material), elasticity and skin pigmentation with a full face photo booth analyzing the pores, spots and lines/wrinkles. Consumers not only can see their current skin's condition but also the result that they can achieve whilst using Pond's products. This technology is the first of its kind and has never been used by our key competitors."

Consumers can experience the Pond's Face Analyzer during the months July to December 2009 at major retailers throughout the GCC. Pond's beauty advisors will assist consumers in taking the face analyzer test and providing them with professional advice to maintain healthy, nourished and radIaint skin.
