How to use

How to use

  • 1 Where it fits: Apply after toner and before moisturiser — thinnest to thickest.
  • 2 Morning works well: Antioxidants like vitamin C pair well with daytime use under sunscreen.

General guidance from this product's category and active ingredients — always follow the directions on the package.

Freshness & expiry

Is your Elizabeth Arden still fresh?

Reads the manufacture date & expiry from the code — right here, for Elizabeth Arden.

Trust & honesty

Effective levels — general guide

The concentrations these actives are typically effective at in research — not a measurement of this product.

Vitamin C (ascorbic) 5–20%

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.

Frequently asked questions

answered from the analysis
Is it fungal-acne (Malassezia) safe?

Can I use it during pregnancy?

No commonly flagged ingredient classes (retinoids, high-dose salicylic acid, hydroquinone) were found. Still, check with your doctor — this is not medical advice.

Does it contain drying alcohol?

No drying alcohols were found in the ingredient list.

Will it clog pores (comedogenicity)?

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.

Is it vegan?

No — the brand does not list this product as vegan.
