Elizabeth Arden Advanced Light Ceramide Capsules Review: A Must-Try for Oily Skin
In 1990, Elizabeth Arden pioneered the skincare industry with the introduction of Ceramide Capsules — the first of its kind bio-engineered, skin-identical ceramides available in a single-dose capsule format. Now, with over 140 awards worldwide for its capsule technology, Elizabeth Arden has introduced what it is calling the new gold standard of skin barrier repair. Say hello to Elizabeth Arden Advanced Light Ceramide Capsules.
Continuing the success of Elizabeth Arden’s core Ceramide Capsules, Advanced Ceramide Capsules Daily Youth Serum, comes the new Advanced Light Ceramide Capsules. This exciting new addition to the Ceramide Capsule lineup has an ultra-lightweight texture and is ideally suited for combination and oily skins. But, that doesn’t mean ladies with dry skin won’t appreciate it too. My dry skin lapped up every last drop of this beautifully soft serum and after a few weeks of religious daily application, my skin was thriving.
Powered by skin strengthening Phytoceramides and pore-perfecting Cyclopeptides, this new serum absorbs into the skin super quickly and works to help nourish and strengthen the protective lipid skin barrier, refine pores, and rebalance skin complexion. The product is includes Hemisqualane, a light emollient that controls excess sebum. To be put it simply; this new arrival enables consumers to experience barrier-strengthening and pore-perfecting power in just one dose.
Elizabeth Arden says that consumer trials of the product showed 9 out of 10 women reporting seeing a dramatic reduction in visible pores after just one capsule. I can definitely attest to this. I struggle with enlarged pores around my nose and cheeks, with applying this serum daily I could see a marked reduction in the appearance of pore size in those areas.
The capsules also did wonders for my skin during these icy winter months we’ve been experiencing and ensured my skin barrier remained strong and unphased by the harsh weather. After a month of using the product my skin felt great; it looked more luminous and the texture of my skin had also improved.
The Advanced Light Ceramide Capsules are easy to use and each capsule offers just enough product for one application. A little goes a long way with this serum so you’ll have plenty for the face and neck area. Simply twist the soft capsule to open, squeeze the product onto your fingertips, warm the product gently on the hands before carefully sweeping it onto cleansed skin.
