Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream review

This product is perfect for cracked lips and really dry skin. I use it especially in the winter when my skin gets really dry. It works really well, but can be a little bit greasy. For this reason, I wouldn't use it as a hand cream as it doesn't absorb very quickly. It also has a fairly strong scent, which I don't mind too much but can see it being a problem for some.

This is by far the best balm I've used. I started using it while I was taking acne med Roaccuatne - it dries your skin and lips out like crazy!

I had tried a lot of balms before using this and they worked well but none actually lasted this long on my skin. The taste is a little bitter and the texture is a bit gluggy but I still love it and would still highly recommend it. You only need the tiniest amount so a little goes a long way. I had used it every night for up to 6 months and still had over half a tube left, so it's well worth the purchase in my opinion!

I think the product is great and it does what it says it will do BUT I really don't like the smell of it and I don't like how sticky it is. I use it on any dry skin I have but wouldn't use it on my face or lips because of the smell.

I was introduced to this amazing product about four years ago and I have never been without since. I keep a tube by my bed, on my desk, in the car and several tubes in various handbags. I use it as a lip balm, on sunburn and irritated skin. A great all rounder :-)

I love the stuff I always keep a small tube with me, it works wonders for my lips just as good as blistex, also good on dry patches I sometimes get near my eyebrows and cheek, doesn't affect my sensitive skin either

I love love love this product. The downside is it smells strongly medicinal but it works. I stupidly waxed my eyebrows but didnt warm the wax enough so it took a few layers of skin with it resulting in a very painful graze. I used this on it twice a day,at first it left me pain free and the graze was almost completely gone 48 hours later. I also get chaffing when wearing a skirt on hot days which can be extremely painful,this clears it up overnight and once worked on a random rash my daughter had

It smells weirdly like band aids... and feels like a cream version of that! I've had wind damaged skin and used it and it worked. I keep a tube in my kit for those times I need repair. I would not use this regularly though, it feels really heavy.

Not really a fan of this. I don't like the smell of it, it's very chemical smelling. I only every use it as a lip balm as it's rather sticky and I wouldn't want that stickiness on any other area. I didn't find it moisturized or improved the condition of my lips any more than your standard lip calm. It is pricey but lasts ages as you only need the tiniest amount at a time. I would definitely pick another more natural lip product over this.

For the price, this is a good buy. Lasts for years & can be used for just about anything! Have since bought it as a gift for my mother - great for dry skin, lips & scrapes.

But I am not a huge fan. I found it to be quite smelly and chemical tasting when I used it on my lips. I would rather use a natural balm like trilogy everything balm for dry skin. On the flip side, I was given the 8 hour lip balm free with a purchase recently and I am super impressed. It is the best lip balm I have used, hands down. My lips are lovely and smooth and it's great to apply before lipstick. Recommended!
