Advantages: Great for a natural look

Disadvantages: Oily and greasy if too much applied

Ok -tricky one this. Yes, its Elizabeth Arden and yes all the female celebrities on last years 'Im A Celebrity get Me Out Of Here' raved about this product, which earned it some kind of new credability and elevated it to 'celebrity status', but I must admit Im still undecided!? It is the weirdest 'cream' you will ever use simply because it isn't 'cream' at all. Its more like lip salve or petrolium based products and has no creaminess to it whatsoever. Don't make the same mistake as I did and plaster it all over your face and neck and then try to apply make-up - that doesn't work. No, seriously, it doesn't. Also it can leave the skin feeling rather greasy and tacky if too much is applied.
What I have now discovered is that this product is marvellous for putting onto the skin/face, unaccompanied by lots of make-up, for those occasions where you just want to look healthy, dewy, fresh and glowing. I discovered this after taking it with me to the swimming pool and putting it on after my swim before venturing off on my journey home. I found I didn't need cleanser,toner,moisturiser,foundation,blusher etc etc and this just gave my skin the little boost it needed to make it acceptable to the general public!!
It also doubles as a wonderful lip balm - bonus.
I think this product would be ideal for people going away on holiday who want to avoid wearing lots of make-up during the day but still want their skin/face to look glowing and healthy.

One tip - this is quite pricey in the stores - so go online and get it cheaper, I did!!

Summary: multi- purpose but most certainly not your average 'cream'
