One of my favorite products of all time, Elizabeth Arden Time Capsules, has just got a makeover. This month the company released its new Ceramide Gold Ultra Lift and Strengthening Eye Capsules ($52.00, Amazon.com).
What’s the difference from the original, you ask? The new formulation features more ceramides, ultra-hydrating shea butter, antioxidant softener olive oil, fatty acids, and a small concentration of vitamin C as ultra-stable tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate. This means that the formulation is instantly more hydrating and ultimately more beneficial than the former version.
Even better, Ceramide Gold Ultra Lift and Strengthening Eye Capsules feel better on the skin than the original. Although I didn’t even think the classic needed an update, this certainly was welcome. They’re perfect for dry or irritated undereye skin, and for temporarily plumping fine undereye lines a bit. Excellent eye serum!
