Happy 30th Birthday, Egyptian Magic! My avid readers know how much I like this product (click here for a previous post). Since it arrived on the market in 1991, the wonder balm has, indeed, been working its magic. From applying on dry skin to taming frizz and hydrating parched lips, the multitasking all-purpose skin cream does it all—and I am not the only one awestruck by its healing powers.

Honey, Honey! Based on a formula that was created thousands of years ago in the land of the Pharaohs, Egyptian Magic’s unique process harnesses the power of our invaluable bee friends and combines six of nature’s most moisturizing ingredients to create a balm unlike any other. All-natural honey, bee propolis, pollen, royal jelly, and beeswax work with 100% non-GMO olive oil to nourish, soothe, and hydrate skin for an all over glow. That’s it. No additives, preservatives, fragrances, chemicals or parabens.

Legendary among celebrities, cult among the fashion press and beauty industry, it is also the must-have beauty tool for professional make-up artists. Using it for example with your foundation gives you an amazing glow. Or just dab a little bit over your blush.

Hydrates and moisturizes skin from head to toe. Use it as a moisturizer, lip balm, eye cream, a hair mask, a baby cream, a makeup remover, a shaving balm, an after sun lotion, or even as a vaginal moisturizer or a lubricantone product does it all!

Ancient Kamitian (Egyptian) folklore recalls the existence of a miraculous skin cream secretly used by the great sages, mystics, magicians and healers to maintain radiant, healthy, smooth and glowing skin. Egyptian Magic All-Purpose Skin Cream claims it has the exact formula than this miraculous cream found in ancient Egyptian tombs.

It is a phenomenal healing balm with legendary powers due to its unique mixture of all natural ingredients derived only from living plants and organisms. Being on the market since August 1991 with a solid track record, a loyal word of mouth following, and twice the healing power for half the price of conventional skin creams, it contains no additives, added preservatives, parabens or GMO ingredients and is made with Olive Oil, Bees Wax, Honey, Bee Pollen, Royal Jelly, Bee Propolis & Divine Love.

I had been curious about this magic cream that is loved by celebrities around the globe since quite some time and was looking forward to trying it. At first, it looks like Vaseline. But upon contact, this cream is much softer, a lot oilier and melts easily when rubbed into the skin. You don’t need a lot of product and it easily absorbs. The only thing that I am not used to yet is the smell. It’s not unpleasant, please don’t get me wrong, it’s just not a scent you’ll fall in love at first sniff.

I was truly impressed by its multi-purpose approach for the whole family (you can even use it for babies). The cream  hydrates and repairs skin from head to toe. I love to apply it on my cracked heels and elbows. Moreover, you can use it as a moisturizer, lip balm, eye cream or even hair mask as well as a makeup remover. Imagine that you are traveling, you just have one product for all! It also works wonders on eczema and skin irritations and helps fading scars. In addition gynecologists recommend Egyptian Magic even to be used on your private parts.

In Switzerland, Egyptian Magic is exclusively sold at Import Parfümerie.
CHF 36.00 (59ml) and CHF 54.00 (118ml)
