ELIZABETH ARDEN EIGHT HOUR CREAM SKIN PROTECTANT

This multipurpose balm has been around for more than 90 years. With ingredients such as vitamin E, lanolin and salicylic acid, this bestseller was formulated by Arden herself. It apparently got its name from a customer who used it on her child’s grazed knee and eight hours later, it was better.

Able to treat pretty much any skin problem – chapped lips, dry hands and rough heels, not to mention its ability to act as a glossy highlighter as well as taming eyebrows – this award-winning do-itall balm remains a beauty staple. The eight-hour concept has been expanded into a full range of products and regularly relaunches the original cream in limited-edition packaging. R385 for 50ml
