Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream All-Over Miracle Oil

I am a huge fan of Elizabeth Arden and whilst I always have my eye on a lipstick or two, there is one range that I have, over the years grown fond of and that is the extensive Eight Hour Range.  I am the first to admit I never really liked the much coveted Eight Hour Cream, but it has grown on me.  Today however it is the turn of the Eight Hour All Over Miracle Oil.

This oil is described as being 'All-Over Miracle Oil, a Luxurious, Head-To-Toe Moisturising and Conditioning Treatment' and if you read my blog regularly then you will know that I like products which are versatile and this is one of those. The multi-tasking formula can be used on the face, body and hair. Clinically proven to moisturise for between 8-12 hours, this has a sleek design with a frosted view and is delicately scented with a light, citrus floral fragrance accord that promotes a sense of well-being. It smells and feels almost spa-like.

Infused with Tsubaki oil which is an ultra-hydrating ingredient that delivers long-lasting moisture for radiant and healthy looking skin and it works alongside Avocado Oil, Grape seed Oil, Olive Oil and Sunflower Seed Oil to name just a few.  What I really like about the oil is that it is quite light and dry which means it sinks into the skin almost straight away. And you really don’t need a lot to feel moisturised. Plus as it’s so lightweight you can even use this underneath your moisturiser for extra nourishment.

I decided to test this on my face first. After washing my face, I popped a single pump of this into the palm of my hands and warmed it before pressing into the skin. It was incredibly easy to use and wasn't in the slightest bit greasy.  I always find that wearing chunky tights during the winter can often leave the skin on my leg dry, so I try as best as I can to use something really moisturising after showering on my skin.  So I then tried it on my elbows and shins where I had noticed some dryness and impressively there was quite a difference in how my skin felt a few days later. 

As for using the oil my hair, I do tend to get a bit of frizz so when I blow dry it, so whilst my hair was damp, I used two pumps of this on the midlengths to ends of my hair before blowdrying and have found that it does add a little shine without making my hair greasy and it does an alright job at eliminating frizz, but my preference for using it on my face and body and even use it for the occasional massage.

Priced at £29 this All-Over Miracle Oil is widely available both on the highstreet and online from sites such as Boots, Lookfantastic and John Lewis.
