I just received a little card from Sears about the upcoming GWP with Elizabeth Arden. I tried to find a better image on the net but there’s nothing, probably until Sears announces it online.

Basically, with any CAD38 purchase, you’ll get an 8-piece gift valued CAD81 which includes a Zebra print tote, your choice of either the new Ceramide Plump Perfect Ultra Lift and Firm moisture cream SPF30 or Prevage Anti-aging formula. That’s all the card said, based on the picture, there’ll be a lipstick, a small sized Pretty perfume, 2-in-1 cleanser, Ceramide capsules and mineral makeup (either foundation or blush). Are you a fan of Elizabeth Arden?

Talking about the brand, I might as well tell you what I am/was using from Elizabeth Arden. I have their Intervene line for almost a year now. Among the 3 products I got, I liked (and still do) the 3-in-1 Daily Cleanser/Exfoliator/Primer (retails for CAD32) the most. It is gentle enough to use everyday but still gives me the feeling of my skin being exfoliated. My skin feels good after each use. Sometimes I switch around to a stronger exfoliator or a soft cream cleanser, just to give the skin a different treatment when needed, but I find myself coming back to it afterward.

The Pause & Effect moisture cream SPF15 is a good moisturizer, not heavy or greasy. I just didn’t notice any big change in my skin after using it for a while, considering it was not a cheap item (CAD68). After finishing the jar, I switched to Olay Regenerist Enhancing Lotion SPF 15. They came out with a Radiance Boosting Moisture Cream to replace it now, as I don’t see it on the site anymore.

The Pause & Effect moisture eye cream (CAD49) is also replaced by Anti-Fatigue Eye Cream. I haven’t used the new product, so I can’t say, but the old one works quite well. It stops fine lines around my eyes, makes me feel young again. I’m on the second jar now.

I certainly like GWPs, as a little extra confetti in the makeup party 🙂 But I probably won’t shop this time, as I still have a few products to finish off. I like the idea of the zebra print and the perfume (don’t think I’ve seen fragrance in their GWP).

Have a nice evening, everyone.
