[ Save To My Favourites ](/user/login?destination=/markdownify/node/15563) ###### ***CREATED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH ELIZABETH ARDEN*** Launched in the 1930s, it’s still flying off shelves – with one tube selling every 30 seconds worldwide. And for good reason. Quite possibly the definition of a cult product, this beauty editor favourite is a true multi-tasking hero – from taming brows to soothing skin, here are eight ways the experts love to use it. ## **1. Francesca White, Tatler Health & Beauty Director** “I always take a tube of Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream on the plane with me – it brings cuticles back from the brink and makes a fantastic lip balm and gloss in one.” ## **2. Amanda Harrington, make-up artist & Founder of InParlour** “This multipurpose cream is a mainstay in my kit. I often mix it in with a cheek or lip tint to make a coloured long-stay balm for the lips.” ## **3. Emma Welsh, manicurist** “I always tell my clients to apply this cult cream to their cuticles before bed – take the time to work it into the skin and the heat will help heal sore, dry hands too.” ![](https://media.sheerluxe.com/MJfMiR1hTDet2blsMJnE0mCGcsc=/1920x0/smart/filters:no_upscale()/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2018%2F03%2Felizabeth-arden-8-beuty-experts-quote2.jpg) ## **4. Charlotte Cave, Founder of Charlotte Cave Salons​** “A true fashion accessory and first aid in a tube, 8 Hour Cream is never far from my side. Packed with vitamin E, it will soothe rough skin and help the healing process as well as lending a natural glow to skin and limbs alike.” ## **5. Polly Osmond, make-up artist** “Eight Hour Cream is probably the only product I use on every single job. I mostly use it to get shine on a cheek or eyelid but also use it on myself as an eye gloss – this gives an instant lift without using eyeshadow.” ## **6. Tor Cardona, SL Health & Beauty Editor​** “As a running junkie, Eight Hour Cream has my back – whether it’s on blisters, dry patches or chapped lips, you’ll always find it in my gym bag.” ## **7. Charlotte Cowen, make-up artist** “For speedy, on-the-go grooming, use instead of your brow gel to tame unruly hairs and set your look or swap for a hair serum to control frizz and fly-aways.” ## **8. Liz Pugh, make-up artist** “Eight Hour Cream has been a make-up kit essential for me for years. My top tip is to warm a little between your fingers and press along the top of the cheekbones to give instant radiance and health to the skin.” ![Eight Hour® Cream Skin
