I recently burnt my arm while pulling a casserole out of the oven. I used Elizabeth Arden's Eight Hour Cream ($16) on my burn for about a week. Not only did it heal my battle wound (believe me, I'm not used to using an oven ever since I got a George 5 years ago,) Eight Hour Cream healed it faster! No scar!
Ignore the smell and repair your cracked, dry skin. Eight Hour Cream has soothing properties for minor skin irritations: bug bites, eczema, or scratches. The name stems from the claim that it can soothe any minor skin irritation within, you guessed it, eight hours. It did take longer for my burn to heal, but my pain was *poof!* gone within the first day of application.
My friend Matthew was attacked by a dog last year, used Eight Hour Cream, and sped up his healing process. AND no scars.
Downside? It's slightly greasy. And it smells like your grandmother.
But how often do you get mauled by dogs or actually cook?
