The founder, Elizabeth Arden, was actually born Florence Nightingale Arden, Ontario, Canada.

In 1912, Arden went to France to learn beauty techniques are employed in beauty salons of Paris. When she returned to America, she brought more new knowledge. She also brought a collection of red and tinted powders she had created. At the time, the makeup was usually reserved for performers, which represented one of the first major innovations that the company would bring to market cosmetics.
The next major development came when Arden collaborated with A. Fabian Swanson, a chemist, to create a "mellow cream face." The product they came with Venice was appointed to the Amoretti cream and lotion for skin support, which became a success. This leads to a long and successful partnership. This was the beginning of a scientific approach to the cosmetics industry, and this corporate philosophy eventually affected the rest of the industry.

The company was eventually acquired by Unilever of FFI, which is a New York corporation. And until now, the name Elizabeth Arden is synonymous with quality and style.
