Yes, Ponds light gel moisturiser is free from parabens.

It uses EWG recommended safe preservatives as an alternative.

Although most cosmetic formulations have stearic acid in them, it is better to do a patch test in one particular area before using it on your whole face.

Not at all, Stay away from this product.

IS PONDS GEL MOISTURIZER GOOD FOR DRY SKIN

This gel contains Hyaluronic acid, Butylene glycol and Glycerine, all of which helps to hydrate even dry skin. But in reality, it barely moisturises my normal skin, I do not think this alone would be enough to hydrate dry skin or mature skin. When the skin is dry, it may feel tight and stretchy. And, too much dryness can cause itching too.

Dry skin beauties can try their Ponds Light Moisturiser which has a creamier consistency.
