Luxurious capsules
I’ve been using the Elizabeth Arden Retinol + HPR Ceramide Capsules for several weeks now, and they’ve made a noticeable difference in my skincare routine.
The serum inside each capsule is lightweight, silky, and has an almost velvety feel when applied to the skin. It glides on smoothly and absorbs quickly, leaving my skin feeling soft and nourished without any greasy residue. The pre-measured capsules are a convenient way to ensure you’re using the right amount, and they’re especially great for travel. However, those with very oily skin might find the formula slightly rich.
These capsules combine retinol with HPR (Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate), a potent retinoid, along with ceramides to target signs of aging while maintaining the skin’s moisture barrier. After consistent use, I’ve noticed a visible improvement in my skin’s texture and tone. My fine lines appear softened, and my skin looks more radiant and smoother. The ceramides seem to help counteract any potential irritation from the retinol, which is a big plus, especially for those with sensitive skin.
The combination of retinol and HPR provides a powerful anti-aging duo, and the inclusion of ceramides helps to keep the skin barrier intact. The formula also includes peptides and other skin-loving ingredients that work together to improve skin elasticity and firmness. I appreciate that the product is fragrance-free and doesn’t contain any unnecessary irritants.
The individually sealed capsules ensure that the active ingredients remain potent and fresh, which is a thoughtful and effective packaging choice. The capsules come in a sleek, luxurious jar that looks great on the vanity. While the capsules are convenient, they do create some waste, which might be a consideration for those looking to reduce their environmental impact.
Elizabeth Arden’s Retinol + HPR Ceramide Capsules are on the pricier side, but given the quality of the ingredients and the noticeable results, I believe they offer good value for those looking to invest in a high-performance anti-aging product. Each capsule is potent, and with daily use, you can expect to see results over time.
The Elizabeth Arden Retinol + HPR Ceramide Capsules are an excellent choice for anyone serious about anti-aging skincare. They effectively deliver the benefits of retinol without compromising the skin’s moisture barrier, thanks to the inclusion of ceramides. The results—smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin—make these capsules worth the investment. Highly recommended for those looking to target fine lines, uneven texture, and overall skin aging.

the Retinol + HPR Ceramide Capsules Rapid Skin Renewing Serum and was pleasantly surprised by the results. These capsules are incredibly convenient, ensuring the perfect amount of product with each use. After adding them to my skincare routine, I noticed a visible improvement in my skin’s texture and overall appearance. The serum noticeably reduced the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leaving my skin feeling smoother and looking more radiant. The addition of ceramides was an extra bonus, as they helped to deeply hydrate and nourish my skin, promoting a healthier, rejuvenated complexion.
When it comes to skincare, Elizabeth Arden holds a top-tier reputation, and these capsules certainly live up to it. They aren’t cheap, but I’ve always believed that investing in high-quality skincare pays off in the long run, especially with a product like this. After just a short period of use, my skin feels like it’s thanking me already. Plus, the timing was perfect it arrived just in time for the changing season when my skin tends to need an extra boost of care.
The product itself is beautifully presented in a luxurious gold box, with a lovely rose-gold hint that echoes the pearlescent capsules inside. The clear bottle adds a touch of elegance, revealing the stunning teardrop-shaped capsules. My only hesitation is with the individual packaging of each dose. While I understand that it helps preserve the product’s potency, I can’t help but wonder if the packaging is really necessary from an environmental standpoint.
In terms of application, the capsules are simple to use just twist off the top and you’re good to go. The serum has a smooth, viscous texture with a subtle fresh scent. It feels divine on the skin. Despite their small size, each capsule contains more than enough serum to cover my face, neck, and even the backs of my hands. It’s a little luxury in every dose.
I’ve been using retinol products for a few years now, but this formulation feels much gentler. I usually avoid applying retinol near my eyes, but this serum doesn’t sting or irritate that sensitive area, which is a big plus. The combination of retinol with ceramides feels like a perfect match for deep hydration with the power of skin renewal.
The serum left my skin feeling nourished for hours after application, although it didn’t feel as intensely hydrating as some other products I’ve tried. That said, the immediate smoothness was noticeable, and I imagine the results will only improve with continued use.

So in the world of Vine you’re sometimes left to grab things without full thought or else someone else might nab it before you’ve made up your mind. Going by picture alone I thought this was a tub of sweets so I grabbed with both hands.
In the aftermath I realised that either this was a very expensive tub of sweets or it was a beauty product.
So I’m vaguely aware of the name/brand “Elizabeth Arden”, I’m not sure where they stand in the hierarchy of brands, but when I showed my wife what I had done, her mouth just dropped.
It seems that this was something she had been wanting for a long while, but the high price was putting her off and passed her the tub, which she handled like the Chachapoyan fertility idol from Raiders.
This is, skin care, a cream which comes in teeny tiny squirty vials (bladders? I don’t know). These are single use and have enough cream in there for your one time use. The cream goes on nicely, there’s no discernible odour, and it is absorbed readily by the skin. You can use it day and night too.
Now, with regards to the little vials or whatever they are called, I’m not sure what they are made out of, I’m sure it gives weight to the eyeball busting price, but it seems strictly unnecessary, even though they are billed as environmentally sound.
Now, I wasn’t the one using this, a bit soap and water will do me, maybe a bit cream for dry skin, but I’m not one to have a full on beauty regime. However, my wife swears by this, and feels that it is keeping her skin firmer and more “radiant”. I’m never sure what the word “radiant” means when applied to skin, but here we are.
I digress, it seems that my wife was right to long for these (they’ve been on her wish list for a while apparently), my only concern is that when these run out (60 capsules, if you’re using day and night this tub will last a month) my wallet will take a hit… Sad times.

My skin is problematic at this time of year when it’s getting cooler outside and the heating is coming on indoors – Autumn is always when I suffer from dryness which exacerbates the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around my eyes and mouth.
Elizabeth Arden is right up there in terms of its reputation as a top-quality manufacturer of skin products – and these capsules do not disappoint. They’re not cheap of course, but I’ve always thought it’s a good idea to spend as much as you can afford on skincare because using a product like this, even if only for a short time, your skin will thank you for it. It has arrived for me at the perfect time of year.
The product is beautifully packed in a gold box, with a rose gold hint of the product inside. The bottle is lovely looking too – clear to reveal the pretty, pearlescent tear drop like capsules.
I have to be honest about my unease with regards to the individual packaging of each ‘dose’ of serum. I have to ask: is it really necessary? But it also makes sense that the expensive product encased within will be better preserved than if it was in one large bottle which is becoming emptier day by day.
The capsules are easy enough to open – simply twist off the top. The serum is quite viscous with a faint fresh scent and really silky to apply. It feels divine. And although the capsules appear to be tiny, there is MORE than enough inside each one to cover your face and neck. I finish by spreading down to the top of my chest and sharing the last bits on the backs of my hands.
Although I have been using retinol for a few years now, it’s not for everyone. I normally would avoid putting any retinol products on my eyelids, but this is actually fine – very gentle and with no stinging in my more sensitive eye area. That’s a big bonus. These retinol + HPR ceramide capsules are a real treat – amazing hydration and hopefully (I am very confident) much renewed and softer skin over the coming few weeks of use this Autumn.
