My dad got me this from duty free I think at the airport and I wasn't too sure at first whether I would like it.. The cream isn't as amazing as it's hyped up to be and I though the lip cream would be the same but I was very, VERY pleasantly surprised. At first the taste of it, I couldn't stand but as I've come to use it pretty much everyday twice a day, I've got used to it and can hardly taste it now but I literally cannot do my makeup routine without it. It makes my lips moist and un-dry for hours on end and is such a good lip"stick" to put on under my usual lipstick, gives my lips a smooth base and as I said, keeps them lovely and non-dry. It is very expensive and that is one of the downsides to it. I did find it a tad bit cheaper on amazon but only by a couple of pounds. Considering the packaging is very basic and plasticy, I'm surprised at the price but I am quite happy to pay it as I don't think I could live without it now!

I think that this product is very expensive for what it is. I find the packaging really cheap and the quality of the packaging not comparable to other brands at the same price range e.g. Christian Dior. The product itself is quite good and doesn't dry up your lips after 30 mins like some other brands or similar products. I've been very disappointed with some brands claiming to be a tinted lip balm but providing the tint but not the balm effect. Not sure why it's called 8hour because it certainly doesn't last for 8 hours. I think £14 would be the right price for this lip balm.

I really love this product. Its the only thing that I'm not allergic to and doesnt seem to make my lips worse in the long run. However its super expensive and it really doesnt last long. This problem is accentuated by the packaging. I've worn 2 lip balms down to the base but I swear there may be almost another inch of balm in their. I'm going to try digging it out of one and seeing if i can mould it into the other tube. I would buy it again but quite begrudgingly.

I was recommended this product a couple of years ago when I was suffering from terrible cracked and painful dry lips. After trying Vaseline, Carmex, E45, Blistex, Papaw ointment- you name it- I was resigned to the fact that nothing was going to save my lips. However, this lip balm is a miracle worker. It's the only product I've found that heals my lips completely when they're dry. I hated the smell at first (but I put up with it for the amazing results) and now I love the scent. It is ridiculously pricey and I resent paying almost £20 every time I buy it- but I don't think I will ever be able to stop buying it because it is a lifesaver and definitely my HG!

I always come back to this lip balm, it's really moisturizing on my lips and it stays on so there's no need to constantly re-apply.
I like how there's also a SPF 15 in this too and the smell is pleasant.
I've tried a lot of lip balms and I find this one is always the best. I'd also like to try the tinted version of this as it would be nice to have a little Colour to my lips.

The scent was such a shock at first but it kinda grew on me. The balm itself is mediocre as it didn't have any lasting power and wasn't moisturising enough. I probably will not invest in it again in the future.

I have been using this for couple months now and i love it. It works best for my sensitive and dry lips that use to crack easily. The smell was very odd to me at first, but i got used to it quickly. My lips feel very soft after putting this on.This product really helped me to get smooth lips even in wintertime. I have two 8h lip protectant sticks and lip tint. I don't like the tint that much so i think you should get this one. Too bad this is pretty expensive to be a lip balm, 20 euros is not cheap to me, but i got mine online by 10 euros.
positive and negative things about this product:
+ soft lips
+ great smooth texture
+ works well to cracked lips

- price
- doesn't last long, ends quickly (if you add it a lot)

This was one of the worst products I have ever bought! Well actually, I didn't buy it, it was given to me as a gift, and I'm glad I didn't pay for it because it doesn't come cheap - I think it was £18 per stick. First off, one of my friends had the original 8 Hour Cream, which I tried on my lips and was amazing, so thought I would give the lip balm a go. Well, the similarities stop there ... the lip protector has a horrible smell and instead of moisturising my lips it dried them out! I would find myself constantly needing to apply this stuff only to need to put it on again in 20 minutes! Even Vaseline is better than this! After this I went back to original go to lip balm - Softlips in Vanilla, which is only £2. This one dispels the myth that high end products are always better.

This lip balm is an extension of the best-selling 8-hour skin protector. In fact it has the same scent and colour as the 8 hour skin protector, except that it has been solidified in a bullet-formed lip stick instead.

The plus side is that it has SPF 15 to protect the delicate lip area from the sun. However, in terms of performance....I can't tell if this does much to my lips. I have tried countless lip balms, and I am disappointed to say that this is very mediocre- it moisturises the lips but does not leave it smooth, and does not soothe chapped/dry skin either. Would not repurchase this again.

I love the Elizabeth Arden 8 hour lip protectant (in the tin), it's really soothing and works and I'm the sort who hates putting stuff on for the most part. I tend to wipe whatever it is off immediately, I hate the feeling. This one though I can't go out without. It's multi-purpose too! The stick form is very moisturising as well (I was surprised when I first put it on) and I love the lipstick design but it feels a bit flimsy (for that kind of money I expect nicer quality tubes I guess). My bottom lip cracked and bled and I dabbed on some tin lip protectant once (I am way too lazy to apply lip balm very regularly) and that healed it. Awesome.

Love the smell (the 8 hour cream protectant in the jar is way stronger though, even smells like food?), I think it's HG.
