I can't live without this

No other product is as amazing! Although the smell takes a bit of getting used to! It is more of a balm/thick sticky gel than a cream. It is ideal for putting on blemishes at night and miraculously cures them. And it will always keep your lips soft and supple. I carry it around everywhere in my handbag. My lips wouldn't survive without it! Make sure you always take this cream on the aeroplane when you go travelling.

Tips: Ideal for rubbing around the bottom of your nose if it is dry from having a cold!

Many uses for this product

I love this cream! The very first time I tried it was when I was about 15 and had a huge burn on my hand so my nana put the Eight Hour cream on it - needless to say I've been using it for everything since. I find it most useful during the winter when I get quite bad windburn on my lips. I've also recently started using it on my eczema. If applied when I'm about to go to bed I wake and find that my skin has healed overnight. It is an expensive product but you get a decent amount and a tube easily lasts me a year so I believe that it's worth it.

The biggest con for me is the smell, it's not very nice at all. But all the benefits of using the cream definitely outweigh this :)

Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream

This is my new miracle-does-everything product! Perfect for really dry lips, but I also find it really good for sorting out dry patches, if I get dry heels or knees sometimes, eczema or anything like that really.

Tips: Comparable to Lucas Pawpaw, but I find it a little more effective especially on dry lips.

8Hrs Later My Calluses are Softened & No Dry Skin

I don't usually go for these name brands since I typical go for natural NZ brands since I find them cheaper and prefer the natural ingredients but after reading so many reviews plus there was a sale at Farmers so I had to get some. I used this for knees, feet, elbows, cuticles and lips. My knees and elbows have a tendency to get all discolored from calluses and really dry. I put a dab of this on before bed and the next morning the skin is back to it normal color and smooth and hydrated. I also use this on my feet and the next morning the calluses are softened even if I didn't use a foot file the night before. This can also be used on lips but my person preference is lip balm since this is a bit sticky and doesn't taste good. I have also used it for cuticles but I prefer cuticle oil as it sinks deeper and is less sticky.

The pros are: It's multipurpose, has some natural ingredients, comes in a decent sized tube and a little goes a long way.

The cons are: It's expensive for a balm and I wasn't fond of the scent of the Original tube. It also has some ingredients like mineral oil and BHT which is a toulene based ingredient and I avoid toulene in nail polishes.

Overall I will probably consider repurchasing if I can't find a better and cheaper balm to deal with calluses.

Tips: If you apply this on your feet at night it's best to wear socks over it to seal in the moisture and because your feet will be a bit greasy even the next morning and you could get greasy shoes. I recommend you smell the Original one before you choose between the Original or Unfragranced one as the scent reminded me of a tube of petroleum jelly with a hint of chemical apricot scent.

Holy Grail

I get INSANELY dry lips as well as a few spots of exzema, this is a miracle worker.You can use it for several things, but i use it mostly as a lipbalm. Its quite lipid based-so fatty consistency a bit like Lucaspawpaw in a way, but better. Works wonders and far better than other lipbalms, also your lips dont get that addicted thing where they eventually become dry from using the procudt too much. Will repurchase again and again. Some people dont like the smell-it doesnt bother me, but if it does there is a fragrance free version. Will last you forever so great investment.

I use it for traveling

I have been using this products for years now but mainly for travelling especially for long haul flights when your skin gets dry. The only reason I don't use it everyday is it's a bit greasy for me. But the product is great, very similar to Lucas Paw Paw and I use it for dry skin, chapped lips and for swelling.

I love this!

I actually won this product and had never tried it before. 6 months on and I use it for everything, dry skin, chapped lips - anything that just needs a little TLC! I find the balm is a nice change from a cream, but is slightly, stickier/greasy - just something to be aware of.

Tips: This is really a miracle product. I use it on everything. Think of it as a giant leap up from lucas paw paw!

Eight Hour Cream

You can't go wrong with this product. I use it on dry skin, or put it on my lips over night to wake up with them feeling so soft and moisturised, with all dry spots gone. The smell is quite overpowering, but manageable, and this product is also good for sensitive skin. I do find the product quite think so it has to be used in small amounts.

8hr cream

This 8 hour cream is a must in your bathroom cupboard. It works wonders on dry skin,cuts, grazes and even burns. If I ever have any burns from in the kitchen I apply this as soon as ive run it under the water, I find it leaves a protective barrier without making the burn worse. I have also noticed that any scarring i would normally get after a burn is almost non existant if i apply this. I got my first tube as a luxury sample in a gift with purchase and have been buying it ever since. It does leave a coating on the skin so you need to be mindful of that

Tips: This can be used as a lip balm although there is a specific lip product in this range. I just found it easier to dispense this into a lip balm pottle for my kids to use
