Elizabeth Arden

Have worn this fragrance for many years.Have currently ran out of it.Light, refreshing and very wearable feminine smell.I wish it were cheaper, would buy more often.Doesn't last too long on.

For those who for their own reasons despise this product it's worth explaining the history. This was developed by a physician for burn victims needing a barrier balm to seal in hydration while soothing damaged skin and protecting new forming skin. It worked for that and beyond.
Also, at one time many years ago we did not have as many lovely skincare options as we do today. As much as I am sure there are more elegant options this still remains my one old school reliable option for maintaining crack free lips and cuticles. I am never far from a tube of this magical goo.
I will add I bloody despise Vaseline. I hate the color, the scent and the insipid tub in which it is contained. But, I know there are people for whom it is their holy grail. Not me. No, no, no.
EA 8 Hour Cream is my grail. I will use this as long as I have skin on which to apply.
I wear this as an outer eye cream and during cold weather there is a layer of this on my face, hands and feet.
I also love A & D ointment but rarely use because whatever body part I apply this to several of my cats cannot stop licking me!
I've been using EA 8 Hour Cream since 1985. When I see a tube at HomeGoods it is purchased. I keep one in my bathroom, nightstand and car. I give it for gifts.
Truly a classic product that I pray is never given the boot.

It's a lovely soft floral scent. Too bad I dropped and the bottle broke.

The new Elizabeth Arden Retinol Ceramide Capsules Line Erasing Night Serum was a product I was very excited to purchase. I really like the packaging of the ingredients since you can travel lightly with as many capsules as you need. Also the packaging protects the ingredients from exposure to light and air. That is also why I wonder that they chose to include a controversial preservative, BHT, which is only recommended to be used in small amounts, although it is high on the ingredient list.

The Retinol Ceramide Capsules release a very pleasing serum which absorbs quick and leaves skin with a beautiful silky matte finish. I do wonder what the percentage of Retinol is since it is low on the ingredient list. The first time I used this it broke me out, but I haven't had any issues after the initial breakout. If you have acne prone skin I would recommend checking the full ingredient list out before purchasing it. I love that this is fragrance free and doesn't contain denatured alcohol. Not sure if in the long run this would replace my Paula's Choice 1% Retinol Treatment, but in the future when I travel I would definitely bring this with.

This is a review for the Pure Finish MINERAL tinted Moisturizer....

I should have known better than to purchase it, but was hoping, beyond hope, that I would like this tinted moisturizer. Unfortunately I hated it. The colors are off by at least 2 shades. I got "Fair" and it is about an NC/NW25-30, no where near my NW18 and it is orange to boot. :-( It also has a very strong smell of SPF, so even if the color was a match, I never could use this.

Now IF you can get a match and you can tolerate the smell, this is very nice texture wise, much better than the chauky Laura Mercier in my opinion. Unfortunately I did not wear this for longer than a few minutes so I can not comment on wear and finish over time.
