Luxury skincare brand Elizabeth Arden knows a little something about curating formulations to meet your skin type. So, when society is heavily influenced by anti-aging products and swiping on anything that helps promote a youthful appearance, the brand knew it had to meet consumer needs.

Its latest launch, the Retinol + HPR Ceramide Capsules, is a direct reflection of everything a dermatologist stands for. Gentle enough to use twice daily, its superstar anti-aging ingredient retinol helps stimulate collagen production, smooth skin texture and fade hyperpigmentation, all of which foster a more youthful appearance over time.

These capsules absorb easily onto the skin and, aside from retinol, also include skin-smoothing ceramides. These lipids are a crucial catalyst in maintaining the skin barrier’s function, helping to protect against environmental damage and pollutants. So, the marriage of retinol and ceramides is a match made in heaven for youthful, smoother skin.

The Elizabeth Arden Retinol + HPR Ceramide Capsules helps to visibly reduce wrinkles with gentleness in mind, as well as leaving the skin with a more improved texture and tone.

Because of its thoughtfulness to sensitive skin, you can work the product into your routine nightly. Plus, this formulation is said to be the “closest in activity to Rx strength retinoic acid,” per the brand.

Essentially, you’re receiving the best of both worlds: potent yet gentle. With prescription-esque packaging and a supplement-like design, it’ll be your new favorite skincare regimen.

Aside from the Elizabeth Arden Retinol + HPR Ceramide Capsules, there are additional products worth grabbing from the beloved beauty brand. When used together, we noticed a lovely finish and glow to the skin.

The Elizabeth Arden Eight-Hour Hydraplay Skin Perfecting Daily Moisturizer helps bring some bouncy and vivacity to the skin, allowing your post-cleansed face to feel even more refreshed, renewed and replenished. We found it doubles nicely as a makeup primer and smoothes out the skin texture.

Uniquely, Elizabeth Arden’s Eight Hour line regained popularity in 2023, as it was used by Prince Harry’s memoir, “Spare.”

“The duke recalled his mother, Princess Diana, using it on her lips; he tried it to treat his ‘frostbitten todger‘ following a trip to the North Pole in 2011,” according to Page Six.

Dermatologists everywhere recommend using facial sunscreen, and the Elizabeth Arden Prevage City Smart Broad Spectrum SPF 50 Hydrating Shield is the next best thing. Lightweight and void of unwanted white cast residue, this cosmetically elegant formulation combines pollution and UV protection with the brand’s proprietary DNA Enzyme Complex to help strengthen the skin barrier.

With its antioxidant blend and generous SPF 50 count, it goes above and beyond the medically recommended SPF count of 30. Plus, it feels like a refreshing, whipped cream that tops over any cleanser or serum beautifully.

Leave it to the Elizabeth Arden Retinol + HPR Ceramide Rapid Skin-Renewing Water Cream to be the ideal follow-up to the brand’s latest launch, the Retinol + HPR Ceramide Capsules. With a visibly nourishing feel, this product includes hyaluronic acid in addition to ceramides, retinol and soothing botanicals to create long-lasting hydration. We couldn’t stop feeling our skin with the back of our hands, either.

Gentle enough for twice-daily use in the morning and evening, it’ll soon become your skin-replenishing staple that’s wonderful on dry skin yet keen on anti-aging.

Though a splurge, Elizabeth Arden’s products are wholly worth the investment. Based on each product’s ingredient lineup, it’s clear as day that the brand doesn’t fool around when it comes to your skin and the results you’ll visibly notice — both short-term and over time.
