Common Uses

Eight Hour® Cream Skin Protectant is the legendary skincare formula created in 1930 by Miss Arden to soothe and protect skin. An instant, overwhelming success, the Eight Hour® brand continues its legacy today. Celebrated by makeup artists and beauty influencers around the globe, its wonderful versatility and proven results have elevated it to “cult status” in the beauty industry.
DID YOU KNOW?
The name Eight Hour® was coined by a devoted Elizabeth Arden client who used the cream on her child’s grazed knee, and ”eight hours later”, it was magically better.

Ingredients

Eight Hour Cream's apricot colored balm is so effective due to its combination of petrolatum, a skin-soothing beta-hydroxy and vitamin E. This remarkable protectant promotes healthy looking skin and seals in moisture. Petrolatum: A universally acknowledged intensive moisturizer that also soothes and protects the skin. Salicylic Acid: A beta hydroxy acid pioneered by Elizabeth Arden over seventy years ago. It gently exfoliates to encourage smoother skin. Vitamin E (Tocopheryl Acetate): Acts as an antioxidant to help protect the skin from free-radical damage. It is easily absorbed by the skin and has soothing properties. Active Ingredient: (Each gram contains) Petrolatum 568 Mg (Skin Protectant) Inactive Ingredients: Lanolin, Mineral Oil, Tocopherol, BHT, Salicylic Acid, Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Vegetable Oil, Zea Mays (Corn) Oil, Fragrance, Citral, Citronellol, Geraniol, Limonene, Linalool, Propylparaben, Iron Oxides

Directions

8 WAYS TO USE EIGHT HOUR®
Apply head-to-toe to seal in moisture and experience hours of hydrated, healthy-looking skin with each use.
1 .AT FACE VALUE: Simply rub a dime-sized amount in the palms of hands to warm through, then pat onto the face to seal in moisture.
2. COMES IN HANDY: Deeply condition by working the formula into palms and over the fingers, then wrapping each hand for 10 minutes in a warm towel.
3. HEEL-TO-TOE HEALING: Relieve weary feet by massaging the cream generously onto soles, pads and heels, then topping with cotton socks for deeper moisturisation to heal dry skin.
4. A FLASH OF BRILLIANCE: Create instant radiance wherever skin normally catches the light, including legs, shoulders, collarbone, cheeks and bow of the lips.
5. LAVISH THE LIPS: With its effective moisturising ingredients, this do-it-all wonder perfectly re-hydrates chapped lips.
6. THE MANE BENEFITS: In addition to its properties as a “skin savior,” the cream’s petrolatum and natural lanolin help smooth strands and moisturise dry ends.
7 FROST SMITTEN: It can be smoothed onto skin as protection from windburn, particularly when adventuring outdoors.
8 KEEPING IT HIGH-BROW: Run the tiniest amount through eyebrows to groom hairs, helping neaten and define the arch.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Copper.Clouds from Holy Grail Item - Does What it says! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one of my all time favourite products. It was actually bought for me by my Fiance (can you believe it!) who highly recommended it (having heard only good things from his mom and sister). Wow did I fall in love! I started using it on my dry, cracked lips (nothing else seemed to work) and have never looked back. I now use it on my cuticles, any ANY cut or dry skin that I may have and even sometimes use it to shape my brows (YES - this can be done!) Even though some people hate the smell, I found it was something that you just need to get used to. It is a bit more on the pricey side, it lasts very long and is so worth it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by skincare junkie from Versatile product | for lips, nails, elbows... [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this product since as long as I remember (the packaging has changed twice since). I purchased it mainly to use as a thick lip balm - and it is excellent for the purpose. I also discovered the use of it on nails - and it really does heal cracked nails in a few applications. On other dry skin areas, particularly heels and elbows, I use a regular moisturiser first and then use this product to "seal" in the moisture. It never disappoints me. I do not find the smell of the product offensive, in fact, quite like it. It has a "medicated" / "herbal" sort of smell to it, which I found quite interesting. The product also lasts AGES, and with a long shelf life. I have a tube that is well over 5 years and it still works fine. I purchase the 25ml/30ml special travel sizes for duty free, as 50mL is way to much for me.

Rated 5 out of 5 by BooBooBud from Great for dry lips. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the only product that keeps my lips from cracking and constantly craving more moisture. I also use it for cracks in my heels and my cuticles as required (and get great results). I don’t use it on my face or anywhere else on my body as it leaves a thick feeling residue that doesn’t feel all that nice against clothes, bed sheets and the like. I’ve been using this for about 20 years now and will continue to do so until something more amazing comes along and justifies the swap.

Rated 5 out of 5 by angelgun from Great Allrounder [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This cream/gel is very handy for travelling or in my handbag. Primarily I use this for dry lips and dry cuticles. But has many uses! The gel is orange/brown in colour and smells a bit medicinal. It last for ages so it is good value for money.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Zaralis from The best all rounder, life saving skin care. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a tube of this for my personal use and for my freelancing kit. For me I use this on my lips during winter and occasionally during the warmer months, nothing keeps them as soft as this. I also use it on rashes or severe dry spots. On clients it is the same deal, dry skin, mature skin, chapped lips, rashes, everything. I apply this, work on other areas while it works it's magic and gently wipe away to reveal happier skin. A 50 ml tube will last you a long time unless you are using it over large areas, the consistency is typical of a balm and it does have a herbally scent and taste which you'll either love or hate, personally I don't like it but I find it easy to deal with due to the results it gives. Amazing stuff, well worth the money!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Chickybabe1 from Multi-purpose product [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This cream has so many uses. I use it as a lip balm, on dry hands/elbows/knees, and even on scratches and bites. It is more of a gel consistency than a cream and is orange in colour. The smell is unusual but I don't mind the smell. It is super nourishing and hydrating and it leaves my skin feeling soft and smooth. Great product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Sharky5 from Saves my lips!! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I first got this I really had no idea what it was for, luckily my cousin told me. That was about 8 years ago and this is the only product I have found that helps with sore cracked lips. I have several tubes but it works best If applied before bed so it works its magic all night. The smell is best described as strange but seriously buy it! Even better it lasts ages and also comes in a lipstick style tube if you prefer

Rated 5 out of 5 by MoonlightSak16 from All Purpose Balm [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] recently I went on a trip to India and found this product really helpful and handy in many situations. One evening I was at the Red Fort Delhi watching the sound and light show and was bitten by mosquitoes all over my feet and arms. the next day I itched and itched and itched. out of frustration i searched my bag for some relief and grabbed my eight hout tube and smeared my whole body with it. it worked wonders stopped the itching immediately. i did this repeatedly every time my body itched and each time this cream stopped the itching. the end result was also lovely smooth skin. used it for dry hands during the trip. Used it as lipgloss , while on the plane used it as a moisturiser as my skin was flaking . I will never travel without this all purpose balm. as i had weight restriction i did not carry too many beauty products because I wanted tyo save space for shopping. This product worked for so many things and saved me from lugging around too many products.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Vanity Fair23 from a holy grail product [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely cannot live without this. I have very dry lips and this work wonders for them. A little really goes a long way and I've even got my dad onto it, since he has the same dry lips. I also use it on dry elbows and knees and for soothing dry/chaffed parts of my feet (thank you, high heels). I know some people don't like the smell but I personally find the medicinal/herbal smell very soothing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Somethingforsam from Intensely moisturising and can be used so many ways [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm constantly finding new ways to use this. The most creative way is on your cheekbones for a glossy dewy look! I personally don't like this for chapped lips and it's too thick for handcream. But it's great for dry patches on the skin. The smell is incredie strong and I can imagine most people really hating it. But it isn't that bad, you will get use to it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by emilyhollywood from The cream / ointment of 1000 uses! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is so wonderfully useful. I have used (& loved) it as: A super shiny, moisturising lib balm/gloss A soothing, healing ointment on grazes, scratches & shaving burn An awesome cuticle cream An eyebrow gel An eyelash conditioner A moisturising hair treatment (great on split ends) A fast absorbing, smoothing salve on dry elbows, knees & feet A fantastic treatment for dry, peely, winter hands. I'm a fan of Lucas' Paw Paw Ointment also but I think 8 Hour Cream is much nicer to use. You only need a tiny smidge of the suff so the 50mL tube lasts for ages.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Shezka from Protects & hydrates - SOS for the skin [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Elizabeth Arden's 8 Hour Skin cream helps to soothe, restore, soften and protect chapped, dry or mildly irritated skin.I use it when I need super hydration and protection on my skin - when I get flakey skin around my nose after blowing it too much when I have a bad cold, or when I go skiing and get dry scaly patches from exposure to the icy wind. I've even used it on my cuticles. I always pack this if I'm going away as I never know when my next skin emergency will happen. Beware though it has a very distinctive smell and and a thick consistency - gel or balm might have been better, or for an increased sense of accuracy, gloop. I've never been able to use it on my lips as the smell puts me off but some people do love it. I guess its up to each person to decide but I'd say this is one of the must have products for anyone of any age
