Spoilt Rotten Lips and the Change of Season…


I don’t know if it’s just me, but my spoilt rotten lips have been really kicking up a stink with this change of weather. They are positively insatiable at the moment. My lip balms (which I am slave) are generally petroleum free, bee’s wax, jojoba, and or shea butter based. But today, I had to pull out the “big guns” and reach for my old, but ever loyal friend, and patron saint of all bits dry: Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream. Talk about just the ticket. It’s funny how a shift to an altogether different product can be just what you needed. No longer are the lunatics taking over the asylum. Calm is restored. My lips are feeling quenched, soothed and protected. I must say, I’m certainly not only grateful for this product’s preparation, but I am enjoying the comforting fragrance of Elizabeth Arden’s Eight Hour Cream too. It takes me back to the magical beauty bliss of my childhood, when I can recall the scent of this lovely on the matriarch and grand matriarch of the family: my mother and grandmother. I remember when they used to apply a slick or two of this iconic product on me and how special I felt. Who would have thought that one simple product could “still” work all that magic? Ahhhh…
