Mature beauty fans say the ‘wonderful’ product leaves skin ‘soft yet tight’ – and it’s now on sale with 30% off
Updating a skincare routine can involve parting ways with a significant portion of cash. So when we spotted that popular beauty brand Elizabeth Arden had a limited-time deal running on some of its bestselling products, we were all ears.
The retailer is currently offering skincare enthusiasts the chance to bag some of its popular products – including the classic Eight Hour Cream – for less using the discount code RPLC30. The code gets users 30% off until September 30, 2026.
One of Elizabeth Arden’s bestselling products that’s popular among more mature skincare fans is the Visible Difference Replenishing HydraGel Complex which is normally priced at £40. The code brings the product down to £28 however, offering a generous saving of £12.
The lightweight oil-free water gel moisturiser provides 24-hour hydration according to the brand, helping to plump skin with moisture and refine the appearance of pores. After use, skin should feel soft, smooth and radiant. In addition to this, the cream helps to improve the look of skin tone and texture and leaves skin feeling hydrated but without that icky greasy residue left behind by some formulas.
Easy to slot into an existing beauty routine, the product has been designed to be applied to both the face and upper neck in the morning and or evening after cleansing. If this particular product doesn’t suit, the super popular Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant – which is ideal for the colder months ahead – drops to £21.70 from £31 with the code.

Back to Elizabeth Arden, and mature shoppers have raved about the Visible Difference Replenishing HydraGel Complex, praising the results they’ve noticed along with the ‘cool and comfortable’ formula.
One person said: “Relief for troublesome 63-year-old skin. Age 63. Suffer adult acne yet need moisturiser due to age. Can apply this great cream twice a day without precipitating flare ups. Comfortable skin, a first for me! Many thanks.”
A second wrote: “First time using, refreshing, and helped with deep wrinkles, load of gel left still.” Meanwhile a third commented in part of a lengthy review: “My go-to face cream, I love it.
“I am in my seventies and constantly being told I don’t look my age by people. If this is true it is down to my favourite day cream. I put this on and immediately my skin feels so cool and comfortable.”
Someone else fed back: “Love this face cream. It’s so hydrating and I’ve used other brands gels that claim to hydrate and this is by far the best! The best price too.”
It is worth noting however that one person mentioned in part of their review: “It stayed quite wet on my skin for a long time.”
Despite this, someone else in their 50s said: “I love this light gel and use it twice a day to moisturise. I’m 57 and hate heavy greasy creams, this is non greasy and sinks in to the skin quickly. It smells lovely too.”
Meanwhile another was enthusiastic too, writing: “It’s the first time I’ve used Visible Difference and I’m very impressed. It hydrates the skin beautifully and the skin on my face and neck has definitely improved. My skin tightens as soon as I’ve applied it.”
A further review reads: “Bought this in a rush…so pleased I did, it’s fabulous. I’ve always used Elizabeth Arden but never used this I would highly recommend this my skin felt so smooth and vibrant and soft yet tight…wonderful.”
One final person also said: “This is brilliant, love love love. I have dry skin now due to the menopause. It really does go on lovely and it really hydrated the skin. I got it at sale price so it was an extra bonus. Will definitely buy again.”
