Above: French versions of Crème Extrordinaire - labelled Crème

Extraordinaire - sold in a porcelain apothecary jars.

Said to be rapidly absorbed and penetrate deeply, Crème

Extrordinaire was claimed to do the work of three creams,

smoothing, moisturising and nourishing the skin while

neutralising any tendency to over acidity.

Crème Extrordinaire: "Satiny lightness filled with all the

ingredients to encourage fresh young skin texture.


Directions for applying the cream were as below:

First cleanse the skin thoroughly using a moistened cotton

pad with Ardena Cleansing Cream and Ardena Skin Tonic.

Remove all remaining cream with tissue. Pat the skin

briskly with Skin Tonic or Velva Smooth Lotion. Dry

thoroughly. Smooth on Crème Extrordinaire lightly, using a

small amount as it is absorbed quickly. Smooth on

carefully over the whole face (with the exception of the

nose*)... concentrating carefully on the little lines that

span out from the eyes to the temple ... and the lines

between the eyes. Pat in well, always with upward strokes.

Leave on overnight.

*On the area of the nose, use a little Pore Cream to

smooth ans soften the texture. This is suggested because

of the special richness of Crème Extrordinaire. Leave on

overnight an see the extraordinary transformation of your

skin after two applications!

(Elizabeth Arden, c.1958)
