All about everything in a box with a ribbon - about 25 pounds in the online store. (Apparently, in connection with Christmas, the sets from the sale disappeared).

Eight Hour Cream is truly a legendary product.
If you allow, and if you never know who is not in the know, then we will delve a little into history. So that you, so to speak, do not climb into Wikipedia once again)

Well, for starters, Elizabeth Arden is the "business pseudonym" for Florence Nightingale Graham, born in 1884 in Canada.

As it turned out, the Elizabeth Arden brand at one time made a real revolution in the cosmetic market.

Thanks to Elizabeth Arden everyday makeup in America has become the norm, tone cream they began to match skin tone, and cosmetic "collections" appeared, which consisted of matching products.

The brand had showrooms all over the world. The address of the first of them - on Fifth Avenue in New York - gave the name to the famous fragrance 5th Avenue.

They say that Florence herself was an extraordinary woman and even went to marry a Russian prince in exile - Mikhail Evlanov.

Anyway.

After the death of the founder in 1966, Elizabeth Arden, albeit with significant losses, continued to exist. Sold several times, currently owned by FFI, about which I was too lazy to look for anything on the Internet.

One can say about Elizabeth Arden - they have sunk in: the company releases fragrances Britney Spears (Curious, etc.) and Mariah Carey - but, as they say, it doesn’t happen to anyone. In addition to compotes, the company maintains a fairly extensive line of skin care products, among which, of course, Eight Hour Cream occupies a special place.

A kind of legend is associated with the creation and name of this cream.
As you know, Florence was fond of horses, and so the composition of the eight-hour cream was originally developed to treat injuries to beloved horses (hello, hello, Alezan))). So.
And then this cream was allegedly smeared on the bruised knee of a certain boy. The knee healed overnight, and at the suggestion of the boy's enthusiastic mother, the cream was called the eight-hour cream.

What's in the composition?
Close your eyes to lovers of natural and organic cosmetics.

Composition of Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant: Petrolatum, Lanolin, Mineral Oil, Tocopherol, BHT, Salicylic Acid, Castor Sedd Oil, Vegetable Oil, Corn Oil, Parfum, Citral, Citronellol, Geraniol, Limonene, Linalool, Propylparaben, Iron Oxides.

Agree, a terrible thing is (oil) chemistry on (oil) chemistry. But, you know, at the beginning of the 20th century there was neither NTV nor the First to explain to unintelligent women that mineral oil is a-ta-ta. Then, invented literally 59 years ago, Vaseline seemed to be a panacea for all ailments and was indispensable in the cosmetic industry: it will heal your wounds and burns faster, soften your skin, and almost make your hair with eyelashes grow faster.

But even in our enlightened time, the legend of Eight Hour Cream continues to live: it is "recommended by leading makeup artists" and every now and then Skin Protectant flashes in magazines, foreign ones, at least.

Well, what can I tell you - it's not just that.
I don't know what's wrong, but this cream really works.
Yes, it stinks of shoe polish, yes, it leaves an oily film, but it really softens the skin and promotes healing processes - I can tell you, as a peeling lips person.

But let's not get ahead of ourselves.
About everything in order.
Here is the contents of the box:

From left to right: 8-Hour Protective Cream, Body Cream, Hand Cream and Face Cream.

Again, from left to right, Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant, Eight Hour Cream Intensive Moisturizing Bode Treatment, Eight Hour Cream Intensive Moisturizing Hand Treatment, Eight Hour Cream Intensive Daily Moisturizer for Face SPF 15.

As I have already said, all products of this series have a characteristic chemical, I would say shoe polish, smell.
This smell is most pronounced in the eight-hour cream - in the photo it is transparent and reddish.

The manufacturer offers many uses for this miracle cream:
- first of all, moisturizing the whole body: from the heels to the ends of the hair;
- secondly, the cream has a soothing effect on the skin after hair removal or mild burns;
- styling eyebrows - will shine, spike and stay in place;
- protection from extreme weather conditions;
- creating a wet-look - on the cheekbones and eyelids to give a wet effect.

I must say that of all the proposed, I managed to test only the moisturizing properties of the cream: on the lips and hands. I like the softening effect.

I also liked the face cream from the set - it has a pleasant texture and a killer composition, which I don’t even have the slightest desire to deal with. There is sun protection, which is probably a plus. The cream does not really moisturize, but rather softens the skin, does not leave a greasy film, make-up fits well.

Creams for the body and hands separately are not of particular interest. For the body - it is mixed with water and shea butter, therefore it is thicker and more pleasant in texture, the hand cream is more "fluid" and works best when mixed with Eight Hour Cream Protectant.

In summary, if you do not shy away from petrochemical care products, then at least an eight-hour cream can be in your arsenal as a remedy for all occasions.

Everything else is secondary and less interesting.
Separately, the cream costs about 900 rubles. for 50 ml. - generally speaking, a little expensive for petroleum jelly and mineral oil with vitamin E.

But, in general, I rate the experience as positive and, probably, I will repeat Skin Protectant and try Elizabeth Arden lip balm from the same series - especially since some interesting designs have appeared.

Have you tried anything from this brand and the eight-hour series in particular?
There is a desire?

The first thing I did when I was convinced that the cream Eight hours from Elizabeth Arden works fantastic, it started telling her girlfriends about it. After that, I just started doing demonstrations, because this is really an indispensable cream. As a result, everyone who tried this protective cream on themselves urgently bought a tube.

What does it deal with cream “8 hours”? - Chapped lips, irritation, flaking and dry skin, wounds and sores (suitable for the whole family) and that's not all! Read the details!

The cream can be used to soften cuticles, rough skin on the legs and elbows, helps with sunburn and simply softens and nourishes the skin. It soothes the skin after epilation or shaving, relieves redness and accelerates healing.

Also on the official website they report that the cream can be used to fix the eyebrows and give a wet shine to the eyelids, lips, cheeks and body for photo shoots.

What is all this noise about?

According to legend, the name of the cream came from one of Mrs. Arden's clients, who said that her son's skinned knee was gone in 8 hours thanks to this wonderful balm. It was created in 1930 and is still very actively used all over the world.

By consistency "8 ocloc'k" It really is a peach balm. It's quite oily and doesn't fully absorb into the skin. Therefore, it must be taken quite a bit and remember that after application it will remain a greasy film.

Most often, I use the balm in the cold season. I have packs of different sizes to use at home and to be convenient to put in a bag. I don’t even know what to add to the list of what this cream can do 🙂 I use it for the face, lips, hands and nails, for the body. The only point is to be careful with applying to the skin of the lower eyelid.


These are all “8 hours” cream, but in different packages.

I usually buy a cream in a set with other products. Elizabeth Arden in duty free at airports. This works out much cheaper. Especially when you consider that it costs 20 euros on free sale! 20 euros for hygienic lipstick, which runs out very quickly, I'm not ready to give.

And in a set for 37 euros you get a full-sized lipstick, 50 ml of “8 hours” cream and something else (for example, hand cream and lip balm or samples of other creams). Sets are different, but they are in very, very many international airports in Europe (Russia, in particular, too). I also ordered mini-versions on the Internet - 2 pieces of 15 ml for 15 euros.

Launch of a multi-million dollar brand founded a small cosmetics shop that Florence Nightingale Graham opened with a companion named Elizabeth in 1910. But teamwork did not work out, and Florence decided to open her own business, taking the pseudonym Elizabeth Arden (Elizabeth Arden).

His discovery was mascara and eye shadow, which at one time were used only by movie stars. Moreover, it is thanks to this brand that women all over the world have the opportunity to use waterproof mascara. The products of the famous American manufacturer of perfumes and cosmetics are now on our website.

Over time, Florence opens her own laboratory, her knowledge of beauty improves, her creams improve. Gradually, Florence opens salons in Europe and America, and wins more and more clients around the world. Elizabeth Arden is a true innovator in the cosmetics business. It was she who first began to write her name (Elizabeth Arden) on the packaging cosmetics. It was she who came up with the idea of ​​​​producing cosmetic lines, based on the idea of ​​\u200b\u200bcomprehensive skin care. It was she who first released a cosmetic line for men and organized the first SPA resort.

In 1922 under the brand Elizabeth Arden (Elizabeth Arden) not only skin care products began to appear, but also perfumes. In one of the perfume lines, Elizabeth Arden 5th avenue, as if elegance and success have found their embodiment. Fifth Avenue - it was on this street that Florence Nightingale Graham opened her first beauty salon, it was from this street that the history of her achievements began.

Elizabeth Arden EIght Hour Cream Skin Protectant.

Description: Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant by Elizabeth Arden is a legend in the world of cosmetology, the most popular product among celebrities and makeup artists (Catherine Zeta Jones, Giselle Bundchen, Claudia Schiffer, Jennifer Love-Hewitt, Cate Blanchett, Victoria Beckhem, Kylie Minogue, Renee Zellweger) .
Created in 1930 by Miss Elizabeth Arden, the unique formula has not changed since then. The balm protects the skin from dehydration, heals abrasions, cracks and skin irritations, relieves itching after insect bites, and is used after depilation. Skin irritation, light cut, sunburn. Suitable for children and men. Apply locally to any part of the body.

This emollient and soothing lanolin-based balm has many benefits:
- soothes and relieves skin irritations
- strengthens nails and softens cuticles, healing burrs
- relieves light sunburn and superficial cracks in the skin
- nourishes rough skin of the elbows and heels
- ideal for an irritated, reddened nose
- protects lips and makes them shiny
The cream is unique in its healing effect.

My opinion: This cream is available in both tubes and jars. For me, a jar is more convenient. I can't stand squeezing out the remnants of the tubes. The jar is glass, with a tightly twisted metal lid. The cream itself is more like an ointment - very dense and oily, light brown with an orange tint. The smell is not perfumed, for me it smells like machine lubricant, but the smell is not felt already 10 cm from the can and disappears after application.

My daughter gave me this cream for my complaints about dry skin on my hands. I found this cream too thick for my hands, it is difficult to apply it on large surfaces. I use it for heels and lips, cuticles. C softens and moisturizes in seconds and the effect lasts for hours. You can apply it on dry elbows and knees, but I'm fine with them. The cream takes a long time to absorb, so when using it as a moisturizing mask for hands and heels, it's better to wear cotton gloves and socks, because. the cream forms a sticky shiny film on the surface of the skin. You can also use it as a super-moisturizing night cream, but in the morning it must be washed off, because anyway, in the morning there is a greasy film on the face. The cream is economical, smeared with a thin layer. I especially like its effect on the lips - it removes all peeling and dryness in a day. In my opinion, this is a wonderful cream for emergency hydration. Cream - multifunctional, can be used at your discretion on any dry areas of the skin. My daughter's colleagues use it regularly for their face and hands. If you use it in the morning under makeup, then you need to let it soak for about 10 minutes, and then blot your face with a napkin to remove the oily sheen. The cream protects the skin from moisture loss. I think that this cream should be appreciated by those who, due to dry skin, have already formed small wrinkles under the eyes and on the face.

price I don't know exactly, but somewhere around 20-30 dollars.

My mark 4 out of 5 for bad smell.
