Additional Details
Fascinating piece of financial history from this beauty giant!
Pond's Company, makers of beauty products, merged with the Chesebrough Manufacturing Company, whose brand held a good percentage of the facial care field, in 1955. With this merger, Pond's creams became sisters with Cutex nail polish and Matchabelli perfumes. With Chesebrough in command, Pond's creams became available at many supermarkets across the United States. The creams' packaging consisted of small, glass bottles with a round cap. The bottles were recognizable by their distinctive colors, usually in green, blue or white. The bottle design is still in use by the Pond's brand.
In 1987, the Chesebrough Manufacturing Company, popularly known as Chesebrough-Ponds, was acquired by the Anglo-Dutch company Unilever, giving Pond's creams a more international reach.
