Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant Balm, Original 1.7 oz — Intensive Hydration & Soothing Repair

Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant Balm is a concentrated, multiuse balm that hydrates, soothes and helps support the skin’s natural recovery for up to eight hours.

Born from a long legacy of skincare innovation, this original Eight Hour Cream offers a thick, emollient texture designed to lock in moisture and create a protective layer on dry, irritated or rough areas. The compact 1.7 oz tin is travel-ready and intended for targeted use—hands, lips, cuticles, brows, heels and any spot that needs intensive care. Formulated with vitamin E and salicylic acid, it combines antioxidant support and gentle exfoliating action to smooth texture while providing lasting softness.

How should I use this balm in my daily routine?

Use the balm where you need concentrated hydration or protection. Apply a thin layer to small areas or a thicker layer overnight for intensive repair; reapply as needed throughout the day for chapped or friction-prone spots.

• Apply to dry hands and cuticles after washing to seal in moisture.
• Use sparingly on lips as a high-gloss hydrator or overnight lip mask.
• Smooth over brows or stray hairs to tame and shape.
• Layer on cracked heels or elbows and cover overnight for deeper conditioning.

Which skin concerns does the Eight Hour Balm address?

This multiuse balm targets dryness, rough texture and minor irritation by forming a breathable barrier that reduces moisture loss. Ingredients like vitamin E help protect against environmental stress, while salicylic acid assists in smoothing rough patches and promoting softer skin surface.

• Hydrates and calms chapped or windburned skin.
• Smooths rough cuticles and flaky heels for improved texture.
• Provides a glossy finish on lips and highlights on cheekbones.
• Soothes areas after minor shaving or environmental exposure.

Is this product suitable for all skin types and sensitive skin?

The balm is formulated to be suitable for a wide range of skin types, including dry and combination skin. Because it is a concentrated occlusive formula, those with very oily or acne-prone skin should use it sparingly and avoid heavy facial application; perform a patch test if you have sensitive skin or known ingredient sensitivities.

• Recommended for dry, flakey or rough skin areas on the body and face.
• Safe for occasional targeted facial use; avoid wide facial application on oily skin.
• Patch test new users, especially if you have reactive or allergy-prone skin.

What makes the original Eight Hour Cream different from other balms?

Its long-standing reputation comes from a dense, multi-tasking formula that blends protective oils with active skin-supporting ingredients. The original tin delivers both cosmetic benefits—shine, smoothing and styling—and functional relief from dryness in a compact, award-winning package.

• Multi-award winner with a history of broad utility and consumer trust.
• Combines moisture-locking emollients with antioxidant vitamin E and salicylic acid.
• Small, portable tin designed for on-the-go touch-ups and targeted care.

Who is this for: The Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant Balm in 1.7 oz suits anyone seeking a reliable, concentrated treatment for localized dryness, rough spots and minor chapping. It's ideal for travelers, people who work outdoors, beauty multitaskers who want a single product for lips, brows and hands, and anyone looking for an effective, shelf-stable balm to add to a daily or occasional care routine.
