Multi-purpose products are a must in my skincare regime. Spending a little bit of money on something that you can use for multiple purposes definitely makes the purchase less painful. Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream is the perfect example of one of these products.
This is the queen of multi use. The website alone offers up about 8 different ways that the cream can be used. For me, I like to apply it to my lips as a deep moisturizing treatment and also to especially dry areas or small cuts or burns. It provides an instant relief. The texture of the 8 Hour Cream is less like a cream and more like a gel. It has a Vaseline type greasy feeling, but sinks right into the skin unlike Vaseline.
A lot of people are offended by the smell of this product. It definitely has a medical, citrus-y scent that at first took me off guard. But after using it for quite a while I've come to enjoy the smell as weird as that sounds! If you do find it off putting, the 8 Hour Cream also comes in an unscented version. I'd recommend it if you have severely dry skin or chapped lips! Bonus - it won't break the bank since it can be used for so many things.
