Princess Diana's makeup was legendary, from wearing the best mascara to her signature blue eyeliner in her waterline, the Princess was known for having a flawless and stylish look. However, her fabulous makeup looks were only possible because of her attention to her skincare.
Elizabeth Arden's Eight Hour Skincare range was the Princess's go-to for skincare and she loved using this range on her lips in particular. It is this product that gave the Princess silky soft lips at every engagement and it's a timeless product that has been popular for nearly a century.

If you're thinking this skincare item sounds familiar, it might be because Prince Harry referenced this product in his autobiography, Spare. In the book, he revealed that while taking part in the 'Walking with the Wounded' 200-mile expedition in March 2011, when he trekked across the North Pole with four former servicemen who were injured in Afghanistan, he was reminded of his mother when he used this product.
In Prince Harry's autobiography Spare, the Prince wrote that he used the Elizabeth Arden cream on his frostbitten penis. "My penis was oscillating between extremely sensitive, and borderline traumatized, the last place I wanted to be was Frostnipistan," he wrote. "I'd been trying some home remedies including one recommended by a friend. She urged me to apply Elizabeth Arden cream."
"‘My mum used that on her lips, you want me to put that on my todger?’" The Prince wrote, "'It works Harry, trust me.' I found a tube, and the minute I opened it, the smell transported me through time. I felt as if my mother was right there in the room and I took a smidge and applied it . . . down there."
While this isn't necessarily the intended use of this cream, this story only highlights the intense moisturising capabilities of this product.
