Cracked heels dont stand a chance when I apply this balm and leave on overnight.

@ELLEUK I am currently lying in bed ill with my #8hour on my nose to stop me looking like Rudolph. Perfect protection when blowing nose.

8 Hour Cream is a saviour in-flight when my skin feels really dry.

For a dewy complexion I use it on my cheekbones, where I would normally put a highlighter. Its reflective but doesnt add any colour.

@ELLEUK I sometimes use a tiny dab over eyeshadow for a glossy effect. And its great for taming eyebrows.

My hands really suffer in winter but it transforms my sandpaper-like skin into something altogether more silky, smooth and delicate.
