I really wanted to like this product! It's such a fashionable product to use, since high school it seems every beauty conscious woman around me has a tube in her bag, particularly for lip balm. I don't like it though. The smell is too clinical and strong, and the formula feels thin as a lip balm. On me, it even gets gritty and tastes gross. As a healing balm, it's no better than any other. I prefer to use Paw Paw cream and think it does a better job more cost effectively. 8hr cream must work for many, I just don't buy into the hype after giving it a thorough test!

Reviews
I had very dry skin around my nose and eyes but this product has completely got rid of it all. it as 1,000 uses like for nails, lips, pimples, burns it could probably even cure cancer if you put enough on. the women at the Elizabeth Arden counter that I bought it from said this has been the best seller for 89 years and they sell one every 3 seconds worldwide
Tips: leave it on face over night
I have used this product and would recommend it to anyone. I have even used it on my cat when he got into a fight and it actually worked well and healed him up pretty quick. A great item to have in your handbag as you never know when you might need it. I have it in mine and have used it on my daughter for minor abrasions. It is also one of the creams I find that last for a good while as you don't need too much each time.
Tips: Go out and buy a tube and see for yourself :)
I have been suffering for a long time from dry skin on my forehead and around my nose. Especially after wearing makeup, even when I put on moisturiser before applying. A friend recommended the eight hour cream and I love it! Completely fixed the dry skin and can now wear other makeups over top without it caking up.
This is something that should ALWAYS be in your handbag. I have sensitive skin and can get away with using it pretty much on anything - in a pinch it's served as lip balm (obviously), eye cream, face treatment, eczema cream, sunburn relief, hand cream ... a tube lasts for ages, and it doesn't need to be reapplied often.
Tips: Use it for anything. Lips, eyes, mask, itches ... a little goes a long way! If you aren't a fan of the mild scent there's a fragrance free option now.
This is a miracle cream that I use for soooo much! But I must admit, I need to use the unfragranced version because the normal one smells a bit funny too me. This works amazing for dry, chapped lips and also for chilblains or windburn :) a must have for every handbag!!
There are so many uses for this product and I'd be lost without it! It's a bit pricey but it's totally worth it in my opinion, I like to use it as a lip balm before bed and when I wake up my lips are super smooth and ready for lipstick.
I've always had a problem with mosquitos attacking me during the night and i wake up with billions of itchy bites that I can never not itch. But when I discovered this magic stuff, I applied it and didn't feel the need to itch again. It was amazing and they healed super fast too.
It's also great if you have a cold and are always blowing your nose, because for me, that area gets so dry and sore and this cream fixes it right up.
This is also good for minor burns and since I live in a house full of boys, this definitely comes in handy.
This is a miracle in a tube, the only downside is the smell. But I can totally get over that when I see its results
Tips: Apparently there's one out with no fragrance, so give that a go!
I absolutely love this product and I could rave about it all day! I was introduced to this product over ten years ago when I started working in Pharmacy and was always complaining about dry lips from the air conditioning.
Over time I have used this product for all sorts of things from a dry end of your nose when you have a cold, dry patches on my skin, sunburn, ghd burns on my ear and even on my hands and cuticles.
I found that it was best to keep the tube at home and take a small pot of it around in my hand bag to use as a lip balm and for emergency type purposes like burns and tiny scrapes.
The smell is something that you will definitely love or hate. If you are not a huge fan of it them try the fragrance free option.
Tips: If you don't want to carry the tube around in your hand bag - ask your local Pharmacy if they have a smaller container that you can buy. I find the little containers that they put foundation or cream samples in very handy.
I was introduced to this product via a wee free sample potter from Farmers and have been in love ever since. The first night I applied a small amount to a few very small pimples on my forehead and the next morning they were gone!!!
The packaging is a durable tube with plastic top - has never broken or punctured in my experience. Good size for hand bag or makeup bag. The tube makes it easy to get out every last drop.
The product itself is an unusual texture, like a tacky Vaseline. It has a nice scent and rubs in easily. A little goes a long way.
You can use tgis product for anything - acne, dry lips, dry skin, cuts, scrapes. When used under make up gives a great dewy look.
Tips: Another product gentle enough for kids
This is one of my favourite products of all time! I put on anything and everything, from dry skin to healing cuts. It really means eight hours, put it on before you go to sleep and you see a huge improvement by the morning. Doesn't smell great but it's worth it for how well it works.
Tips: Works great on chapped lips.
