Who doesn’t love a limited edition? And when it’s a limited edition around holiday season, then you’ve got no excuse not to be the best gift giver (to your friends, family and especially to yourself)! I love limited editions, in fact I get so attached to them, that I don’t want to use them (because it’s a once off and you’re likely never to find it again), but as I’ve grown older, I’ve started to learn to appreciate things rather than keep them aside for a “special day” or “special occasion”.

I’ve always been a huge believer in Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream. It’s just one of those cult products that every woman loves and always keeps in her handbag. This summer though, there is a new type of Eight Hour Cream designed specially to keep your skin protected from the sun. It’s Elizabeth Arden’s new Eight Hour Cream Targeted Defense Stick and it sure beats the hell out of those lumo orange and green sunscreens the cricket players love wearing. I don’t know about you, but a bright orange or lumo  green nose is a no-no, even if you are a hottie like Graeme Smith. I don’t actually watch cricket, so I don’t know if they still do the whole lumo war paint these days, but if they do, these guys should just get themselves one of these handy little sticks and keep the sun at bay. I know I’ll be keeping one in my beach bag. It’s super small; about the same size of a lip ice tube and probably about double the width if you can picture that?

The illustration on the box is inspired by the Elizabeth Arden Landmark building, located on the prestigious Fifth Avenue New York. Of course, there is a red door to into the building. On the illustration, the characters reflect those of the Elizabeth Arden woman over the years, from a sophisticated lady of the 30’s, when Eight Hour Cream was created, to…
