Eight Hour Cream – 81 years old

It’s hard to believe that the product that every woman knows and trusts is 81 years old. Of course, I’m talking about Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream, a true icon and one with millions of devotees around the globe.

I carry my trusty tube of Eight Hour Cream in my handbag, its amazing and works for just about anything. sunburn, chapped lips, dry skin, you name it, if it’s portecting your skin needs, this stuff works.

To celebrate this amazing product, and 100 years of Elizabeth Arden, a limited edition Eight Hour Cream with this cute and quirky packaging has been launched and will be available in June 2011. The Eight Hour Cream comes in a 28g jar or a fabulous 3.7g Lip Protectant stick which also has an SPF of 15, and fits into even the smallest clutch.

The illustration on the box is inspired by the Elizabeth Arden Landmark building, located on the prestigious Fifth Avenue New York. Of course, there is a red door to into the building. On the illustration, the characters reflect those of the Elizabeth Arden woman over the years, from a sophisticated lady of the 30’s, when Eight Hour Cream was created, to the mini skirt wearing 60’s child, to today’s modern, casual and uber chic woman, just like us!


Cute hey? If you want one I suggest you hurry and claim one as soon as it hits the counters next month, June 2011.
