Once you flip open the cover.. it will reveal....


And after removing the plastic tray of goodies out from the box...



































What I meant when I say there is hidden magnet on the cover...
















So here are the dimensions of this gorgeous-looking red gift box.. which you can use to store anything you want... watches, jewelleries, cosmetics, photographs and.....


For me, I will use it to keep more Elizabeth Arden products in it... just like this...


More information the Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant:

Descriptions:
Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant soothes, restores and helps relieve chapped, cracked and dry skin. Soothes and comforts roughness, redness, minor skin irritations and abrasions. It can even be used to shape brows, apply on hair ends to prevent spilt ends, soothes hands, nails, knees, ankles, toes .. WOW!, so many uses!!

Full Ingredients list for Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant and Eight Hour Cream Lip Protectant:
















Here is me testing out the Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant.. It does not smell nice though.. more of a herbal smell ( actually its hard for me to describe this smell but don't expect a nice smelling cream)


















After massaging in the cream into my skin, it left a thin film of cream on my skin.. abit greasy to touch.. but after a while the cream absorbed into my skin..



















I always have very chapped, peeling dry skins on my thumbs so I am putting the Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant to test, just before going to bed..








 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This is my own badly chapped and peeling dry thumb.. Sorry to have scare you with this ugly looking thumb of mine... ( this is the result of not drinking enough water everyday)
 
 




















Applied the eight hour cream skin protectant on my thumb again before I went to bed the 2nd night... and took this picture when I woke up in the morning..

The redness definitely reduced by alot if you were to compare the 4 obvious patches of redness in the day 1  and day 2 pictures. Plus my skin is smoother and much hydrated ... And this is only after 2 applications overnight.. Although it does not have a pleasant scent, this product works ..no wonder its a favourite among celebrities including Catherine Zeta-Jones, Cate Blanchett and Emma Thompson, to name a few..... It is definitely a keeper for me..

By the way, have you ever wonder why its called Eight Hour cream? ( instead of 10 or 12 hours?)
As the story goes, a loyal client used it to treat her child's skinned knee and 'eight hours later', the skin looked 'all better'.


Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant (50ml) retails at S$39 for a tube... 

And the good news is coming this 9 - 15 July 2010 at Takashimaya Main Beauty Bar, you can grab hold of this Limited Edition Eight Hour Cream 100th Anniversary Celebration set at only $42, which includes 2 pots of the limited edition eight hour lip protectant, (not for individual sale, unless you buy it from Nuance Watsons at our Changi Airport) and a nice limited edition gift box..
