I am trying to do the same thing. I would go to www.score.org
and get free consulting advice.
I would find a mentor to work with in the business and get some experience.
Try to find a book on skincare ingredients to see what you would like to include. Is this skincare based on technological advances or do you want a more natural line?
I would get a list of ingredients and try to experiment with different recipes.
Are there cosmetic companies with labs in your area?If there are I would try and interview a cosmetic chemist. They gave me some information. Thats what I did, you would be surprised at who is willing to help you.
There are also companies that will produce the product for you, you would just have to give them some ideas of what you want.

Question by violsrock88: I need help creating an Elizabeth Arden skincare regimen and have product questions.?
Short story: After a lot of testing on several foundations, I liked EA’s Intervene SPF15 liquid foundation in shade no. 2. So since I like their makeup, I was shopping around on ebay and saw this amazing deal for full size Prevage products! I’m really tempted to buy them but I’m afraid they’re meant for older women and might damage my skin.

And that’s when it hit me. I suddenly realized that, wow I’m now a grown woman and I don’t have a real skincare regimen. So I’d like to create one using their line of skincare. However, I noticed they have many lines of skincare for different needs and I can’t tell which would be best for me.
I heard the Prevage under eye creme is amazing stuff and that is one of my main concerns.
And yet I also understand that Intervene’s intent is to hit the “pause” button for skin and help prevent aging. I do like their makeup, but wouldn’t this stuff be too powerful too soon? I’m only 22.

My real concerns are that I have uneven skin tone, (combination skin type) large pores, puffy dark circles under my eyes and just dull tired looking skin in general. Thankfully, I do not get that teenage high school acne anymore, at this point I just have some blackheads and occasional clogged pores. I do not drink nor do I smoke, however, I am guilty of drinking coffee on a daily basis and probably not enough water.

So, which one of these lines would be best for me? Also, what is the purpose behind all of these other lines of skincare? What are the differences between the Millennium, Visible Difference and Perpetual Moisture 24 skincare lines? All these brands just seem to be very basic skincare with different labels. Am I right in assuming that the Prevage and Ceramide both meant for older women handling heavy signs of aging?

Please note: I know everyone has their own products and regimen they follow but I’d only like advice concerning Elizabeth Arden products. Thanks!
The specialists are really just girls keeping a 9-5 job at their local Macy’s and don’t even understand all the different brands themselves since they don’t necessarily sell them all. I’m looking for a real EA junkie to help me out on this one!
