Before and After
Not to scare you or anything—but here are before and after shots of our skin with the new Elizabeth Arden Intervene Makeup SPF 15, a liquid foundation that “helps put a pause on aging signs.”
To show you just how well it covers, we didn’t use any concealer or face powder—just a little Elizabeth Arden Color Intrigue Bronzing Powder and some powder blush. We added a touch of mascara and lipgloss, but wanted to keep the focus on the skin.
In our (scary) before photo, our 37-year-old skin looks uneven and sallow with visible blemishes. In the after photo, our skin is clearly brighter and more even. We used Elizabeth Arden Intervene Makeup SPF 15 in Soft Sand—a near-perfect match for our skin tone.
Intervene Makeup SPF 15 offers medium/full coverage, is 100% oil-free and contains SPF 15. It comes in 12 natural-looking shades:
- Soft Shell
- Soft Sunbeige
- Soft Cream
- Soft Sand (the shade we’re wearing)
- Soft Beige
- Soft Cameo
- Soft Bisque
- Soft Cognac
- Soft Toast
- Soft Tan
- Soft Toffee
- Soft Cocoa
Elizabeth Arden Intervene Makeup SPF 15 is available at Elizabeth Arden counters nationwide, or online at elizabetharden.com.
Your skin looks exquisite! I’m definitely going to look into this for my 39-yr old skin!
I’ve become a HUGE fan of E Arden recently … their Ceramide Plump Perfect l/s are fantastic, as are their blushes & e/s quads. FanTASTtic!

You look great honey! Don’t you like the makeup?? I do a lot… and I am so not a liquid foundation gal.

Wow, looks like a great foundation! I really like that it’s oil free. Why at 34 do I have fine lines and break outs?! Although I can’t see any of the flaws you mention – you look great before and after!
