Coming Soon: Elizabeth Arden Color Intrigue Effects Lipstick

Usually when we see Catherine Zeta-Jones in her Elizabeth Arden ad campaigns, she's looking glamorous and classic. Not so with this new promotional photo for the brand's Color Intrigue Effects Lipstick ($19.50). Catherine looks hypermodern, runway ready, and a little bit like Victoria Beckham (to me, anyway).

So aside from this out-of-the-ordinary photo, what's different about the lipstick? Break out your old chemistry notes: It contains three esters, which provide shine and emollient properties. It also contains vitamins A, C, E, and aloe, so it won't dry out your lips. The 18 shades are all shiny, but they have different effects: creams, shimmers, and pearls.

The shades are launching online first (right now there are a few available) and hit counters in May. FYI: Catherine's favorite color is Cranberry Cream, and when I post a followup review of the lipsticks, I'll let you know which one I like best, too.

    I think Elizabeth Arden is definitely trying to sell this lipstick to a younger crowd with this ad. I do like it though.

    i didn't recognize czj! she's normally so glamorous and classic looking...this just looks weird and a little too airbrushed. i wonder how the lipstick itself is.

    I'm not a fan of this ad. The reason I love CZJ is her classic looks and beauty. This seems like, techo-y or something.

    Since when does CZJ look like THIS!? I NEVER would have recognized her in a million years.

    If they wanted Posh why didn't they just hire her? I'm surprized CZJ allowed this at all. No one is going to see these ads and think it's her.

    CZJ is beautiful and these photos of her are atrocious. She doesn't even look like herself.

    It is hilarious =) CZJ has a totally different bone structure than VB... I'd like to see this picture in between a picture of CZJ and VB so we could really see how deceiving advertorials work!

    Don't like CZJ in this advert at all, they could've just hired a normal model and saved some money! She looks like a 18 year old girl, not a 30+mother.

    I was sure it was VB too! Why did they do such extreme eye makeup for a lipstick add? The last thing I look at in those pics is her lips...

    The picture on the right looks like Posh. I'm not feeling the lipstick either.

    She has clearly been Photoshopped to within an inch of her life.

    hahah i totally agree with you Fab. I thought this was Victoria Beckham upon first glance. Wow. Can you say airbrushed?? Which is sad, cuz I think Catherine happens to be simply stunning-naturally.

    She looks like a blond white girl here. The eye makeup is neat but the lighting, angle, and hair texture/color make her look 17 and white.

    I would not have guessed it was her in a million years! I didn't even believe it, when I read it was her. Amazing what lighter hair, makeup and photoshop can do to a person's face.

    i hate to point out the nitty gritty, but her hands (especially in the pic on the right with the pink lip color) look really stubby Sad not very attractive

    She looks so much better without all the make up and probably without all the photo shop!

    That eye makeup looks ridiculous... and CZJ really does look like Posh. It's not a good thing.

    But the lipsticks seem pretty nice...
