Elizabeth Arden's most iconic product is (of course) the Eight Hour Cream. The multipurpose and award-winning balm contains salicylic acid and vitamin E, which is ultra soothing and nourishing.

These 10 beauty products have stood the test of time – and one's just $16
This story is part of the July 6 edition of Sunday Life. See all 13 stories. In my career as a beauty editor, the most difficult challenge has always been to select my favourite products. And I've done a few 'best-in-beauty' round-ups in my time, including my top 100. So, here I go again with my top 10 time-honoured products (in no particular order). Let's start with Eve Lom's Cleanser ($144), crafted by legendary facialist Eve Lom and launched in 1985. It's a blend of chamomile, hops, clove, eucalyptus oil and cocoa butter and comes with a muslin cloth that is integral to the cleansing and exfoliating process. Another great all-rounder is Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream ($35). Arden developed it in 1930 and was so impressed by its ability to soothe cuts and bruises she even applied it to her beloved racehorses, while Sir Edmund Hilary used it as a balm when he climbed Mount Everest. It also soothes lips, smooths flyaway hair, highlights cheeks, helps repair cuticles and, at a pinch, polishes your shoes. I know I bang on and on about SkinCeuticals Advanced Brightening UV Defense SPF50+ sunscreen ($68), but that's because it's pure SPF genius that will not only help save you from the sun's ravages but is lightweight, with an easy-to-wear texture. Editing down colour cosmetics is a difficult task. For lips, Charlotte Tilbury Kissing Bitch Perfect Lipstick ($54) is in the nude lipstick hall of fame. And I cannot do this list justice without including Clinique's Almost Lipstick in Black Honey ($48), launched in 1971. This blackened-raisin lip gloss is universally flattering and became an instant hit when Julia Roberts applied it while singing Ain't No Mountain High Enough in the 1998 movie Stepmom. For eyes, Laura Mercier Caviar Stick in Cocoa ($54) is foolproof when drawing a smoky eye. Loading Yikes! I only have four choices left and I absolutely must have two fragrances. Diptyque Philosykos EDP ($309 for 75ml) was the darling of the fashion set in the 1980s thanks to its notes of fig, coriander and coconut and has stood the test of time. And with buckets of sex appeal from its unique, freshly-cut-grass aroma, Guerlain Vétiver EDT ($190 for 100ml) is as intoxicating today as it was when it launched in 1959. For hair, Klorane Dry Shampoo with Oat and Ceramide ($16) is a keeper for those who suffer from greasy, limp second-day hair. In fact, Aussies love it so much we account for a third of worldwide sales. Keep it close for an instant hair boost. Lastly, the legendary Christophe Robin Regenerating Mask ($88) is also a hair must-have, using prickly pear oil to treat the scalp and hair without weighing it down. Oops! Can I make that my 11 favourite products? I simply must add the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer ($799). I couldn't live without it.

Cat Deeley swears by £31 beauty icon behind the scenes on TV
The Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant is a 'holy grail' in several celebrity and MUA makeup bags Cat Deeley often gives her followers a sneak peek behind the scenes of This Morning, from her daily outfit checks to banter with co-host Ben Shephard. But earlier this month, she posted a clip applying a well known product in the ad break, and beauty lovers everywhere took note. In a clip posted to Instagram Stories, the stylish presenter was seen applying the cult favourite Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant. The £31 skincare staple has long had a loyal following spanning generations, with Cat joining a long list of celebrities who keep it in their makeup kit. For Cat, who presents the show each morning Monday to Thursday, it's a smart addition to her beauty bag. Sitting under the bright studio lights, constant talking and air con would wreak havoc on anyone's skin, so it's no wonder she needs something reliable, restorative and multi-functional. And that's exactly what this skincare classic delivers. Originally formulated by Elizabeth Arden herself in 1930, the Eight Hour Cream has become a global bestseller thanks to its powerful healing properties. This multi-tasking balm is said to visibly calm, restore, and protect chapped, cracked and dry skin, while helping to soothe redness and minor irritations. The apricot-coloured formula is made with petrolatum, vitamin E, and a beta-hydroxy compound, ingredients that together offer deep nourishment and promote healing. Its versatility is what makes it so popular, as it can be used to moisturise lips like Cat, or to soften dry cuticles, elbows and even heal superficial burns. It can also be used to tame flyaway hairs and add shine to a makeup look. But Elizabeth Arden isn't the only brand with a do-it-all salve. In fact, Korean beauty brand Wonderbalm's hero product is the best-selling skincare item on British Airways flights thanks to its rich, multi-purpose formula. British Airways has seen a 20% monthly sales increase, even outperforming some liquor brands. Weleda Skin Food is another top choice made with natural ingredients like sunflower seed oil, lanolin and chamomile. It's an ultra-rich formula and more of a cream than a balm, too, ideal for using on hands, as an overnight mask or anywhere that needs some extra TLC. The £31 formula has earned an impressive 4.81 star rating on LookFantastic, where shoppers have praised its seemingly endless uses. 'This lasts a really long time as a lip balm for me - love it,' said one, while a second penned: 'This is my favourite cream for my face, I have such dry skin and this works miracles.' Another added: 'The only thing that heals my cracked lips and you only need a tiny amount.' 'Always in my stash. Great left on as an overnight mask. Perfect for dry lips. it Aided with healing a superficial burn. I have not tried for all 8 uses, but I would still highly recommend purchasing,' wrote another. Some have been less keen on the formula due to its fragrance and texture, one commented: 'Cream was not how I expected. Was not a fan of the smell or texture. Ended up giving to my friend to use ' another penned: 'Good product, really helps with my dry skin but it takes a while to soak in.' But for many, it's a 'holy grail handbag product', with another customer adding: 'Has so many uses! It's the best for soothing dry skin on hands.' It really does seem to be a beloved product, with the likes of Louise Thompson and Prince Harry also fans. With long hours of filming and frequent makeup touch-ups, it's no wonder Cat relies on Eight Hour Cream to keep her lips camera-ready. Shoppers can pick up the £31 cream at LookFantastic here.
