Ooh yes, a must have for all ages and sensitivity!
This is an absolutely fantastic retinol water cream!! I have never experienced anything quite like it! It's extremely gentle, incredibly hydrating, moisturizing leaving my skin beyond smooth! It adds the most incredible glow as well. When I tell you that it is very unique, I'm not just saying that. ...

Elegant Concept, but Incompatible with Sensitive S
I appreciate the individual capsule format, which feels both hygienic and practical. The fact that they are fully biodegradable is a major plus for me—it's a thoughtful touch that aligns with more sustainable beauty practices. However, the formulation raises some concerns. The inclusion of potentia...

I bought this because I was looking for a good retinol, I am a beginner so I figured this would be the one per reviews. however I have been using for 2 weeks and do not see any difference. I must say this is very smooth and makes my face feel soft. Other than that no benefit to my skin.
Great product!

This stuff was great! It's not too greasy and absorbs well into the skin. There is no scent, which makes it nice to wear. It doesn't make my skin feel heavy. It's small and compact. I'll definitely try again.
Very good face serum.

After sampling the Elizabeth Arden retinol capsules, my skin instantly felt different. After a few uses my skin was feeling smoother and looked brighter. I will continue to use this product for a tighter wrinkle free face and neck.
I'd buy these

Recently changed my skin care routine and these fit perfectly into the routine. These retinol capsules are easy to open. Has the right amount of product for your face, so you won't overuse it. They are small, so they travel well. There's no scents. I like them.
Visibly radiant and firmer skin within days.

Elizabeth Arden's Retinol + HPR Ceramide Capsules Rapid Skin Renewing Serum was a product I had not tried before, so I was excited to see what it could do for my skin. The capsules come in a sealed bottle and each capsule provides just the right amount of serum for applying to one's face and neck. You can use the serum during the day and night, so I usually apply it in the morning and evening. It complements other skincare products which allows you to integrate it into your skincare routine. The serum itself is absorbed into one's skin, and it doesn't leave a tacky feeling which is also a plus. When I first tried it, I wasn't sure how long it would take to notice results, but to my surprise, it didn't take long at all. Within a few days, my skin looked visibly radiant and felt firmer. Honestly, I would've expected it to take longer, so with consistent use, the results would be worthwhile.
