Elizabeth Arden's fundamental belief was that beauty should not be a veneer of makeup, but an intelligent cooperation between science and nature in order to develop a woman's finest natural assets. She lived by her mantra, "To be beautiful is the birthright of every woman."
Miss Arden created skin care products that benefited, not masked, the skin. She not only promoted her concept of Total Beauty, including diligent skincare, nutrition and fitness, but lived it prudently as she persistently sought to bring a scientific approach to skincare formulations.
Miss Arden was uncompromising in her vision to create the new and absolute best products, packaging and services that women not only needed, but desired; whether it was the cult-classic Eight Hour Cream, her legendary Blue Grass fragrance, or a bold red lipstick to coordinate with the uniforms of the women serving in the armed forces during World War II.
Elizabeth Arden's list of beauty innovations is long. She was the first to introduce eye makeup to the women of America and pioneered the creation of the "makeover." With the launch of Ardena Skin Tonic, the company became the first to incorporate its founder's name into a product name. Miss Arden developed the first travel-size beauty products, and was the first in the cosmetics business to train and send out a team of traveling demonstrators and saleswomen.
By the 1930s, Miss Arden had opened Red Door salons in the majority of the fashion capitals around the globe, and proudly acknowledged her accomplishments by proclaiming that there were only three American names known in every corner of the globe: Singer Sewing Machines, Coca-Cola and Elizabeth Arden.
Through it all, Miss Arden created both an empire and a new industry. Her entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to innovation, quality and excellence remain the soul of the company today.
Mario Badescu had a singular vision: he wanted to introduce to New York City his European-style facials (mastered back in his native Romania) based on classic, Old World techniques. To Badescu, beauty and skin care were unequivocally intertwined. He understood the uniqueness of skin, and thus came to design a line of handmade products to suit clients’ individual skin types and needs.
It was in 1967, out of his Manhattan home, when the renowned salon was born.
Word of mouth alone earned him a loyal following, and within a few years, Mario Badescu gained recognition as a touchstone of quality skin care.
Today, his legacy is carried on by the Cabasso family, which continues to uphold our founder’s belief in using fresh botanical and natural ingredients. For nearly half a century we’ve been the name that transcends generations and spans the entire life-cycle of skin: from powerful acne solutions to potent anti-aging treatments, we customize entire regimens for every skin type and concern imaginable.
Simple, gentle, effective skin care is our philosophy—and for that, we’ve earned the reputation of being an editor darling and celebrity go-to worldwide.
