Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream Skin Protectant

"I cannot believe you haven't heard of this stuff already! It is amazing. When you get home, google it. But wait, listen to this ladies story here...", the consultant at Elizabeth Arden in Woolies had me at hello with this product.

She was so passionate about this amazingly reasonably priced tube of "miracle" cream. The story the lady had was that she had a cold sore this morning and after trying some of the cream on the sore, she was left with a tiny red spot above her lip. I barely even noticed the red spot but I did notice she was a Clarins consultant who was over-joyed at her cold sore saviour from the rival counter.

I went in search of a new foundation and I was captivated at the idea that my issues of dry skin could become a thing of the past with this sunny looking cream.
History : Created around the 1930's. Mrs Arden used to love riding and racing horses and had first used the cream to cure a horse's injured leg. Within 8 hours she had noticed the difference, hence it's name. If you had been at the July you would have noticed the stand in celebration of the amazing cream and the horses.
Celebs who swear by it : Gisele Bundchen, Cate Blanchett, Victoria Beckham, Claudia Schiffer and more.
Uses : Anything! Ha ha. For a more practical list it is used for curing dryness, cracked skin, taming eyebrows, itchy bites, used as an anti-inflammatory, weather burns, to shine legs (summer time short dresses-our legs need this). It overall is used to protect, soothe and moisturise skin.
Price : R145
Other products within the range are Eight Hour Cream Sun Defence SPF 50, Eight Hour Cream Lip Protectant Stick SPF 15, Eight Hour Cream Intensive Daily Moisturizer for Face SPF 15, Eight Hour Cream "Just for the Body" Set. There are lots of sets to suite your need but I have just bought the Skin Protectant which can be used for just about anything.

Take a walk past Elizabeth Arden and try this stuff out!
