The Elizabeth Arden Anti-Aging Daily Serum 2.0 is a serum. Our analysis of its 68 ingredients (57 low-risk) rates it Excellent (98/100). Heads up: it contains fragrance, which can irritate sensitive or reactive skin.
Summarised from our ingredient analysis — not brand marketing copy.
The evidence
No personal ingredient notes yet. Save ingredients to your profile to get good/bad alerts here.
EWG flags hazard, not real-world risk — ratings don't account for how much of an ingredient a product contains. Treat these as things to research, not verdicts. How we score →
How to use
General guidance from this product's category and active ingredients — always follow the directions on the package.
Reads the manufacture date & expiry from the code — right here, for Elizabeth Arden.
Trust & honesty
The concentrations these actives are typically effective at in research — not a measurement of this product.
L-ascorbic acid is usually used at 5–20% (around 10–15% is common). Above ~20% adds little and tends to irritate more; it also needs a low pH to work.
Ascorbyl Glucoside
INCI lists don't disclose amounts, and we don't claim to know this product's levels — these are the ranges these ingredients are usually effective at, so you can tell a real formula from "fairy-dusting" a marketed active. How we estimate this.
From the community
No reviews yet — the first rating takes one tap.
No — the formula contains at least one ingredient that can feed Malassezia. The flagged entries are marked in the ingredient table above. Check any other product with our fungal acne checker.
No commonly flagged ingredient classes (retinoids, high-dose salicylic acid, hydroquinone) were found. Still, check with your doctor — this is not medical advice.
No drying alcohols were found in the ingredient list.
The highest-rated ingredient scores 2/5 on the comedogenic scale — patch-test first if you're acne-prone. Check any other product with our pore-clogging checker.
No — the brand does not list this product as vegan.
