Amazon shoppers are raving about a 100% natural all-purpose skin salve that's made from 'six of nature's most powerful moisturising and healing ingredients' to treat skin from head to toe. The Egyptian Magic Skin Cream is a favourite among the likes of Jennifer Anniston and The Big Bang Theory's Kaley Cuoco and we can definitely see why.
That's because the multi-purpose balm which doubles up as an anti-aging moisturiser has been formulated with honey, beeswax, bees pollen, bee propolis, royal jelly and olive oil to both nourish and repair skin, ideal for when your skin needs that little bit of extra attention. It is said to not only improve skin, but can also be rubbed into your nailbeds and onto dry hair to inject a boost of hydration.
Clinical studies have shown that bee pollen is effective in anti-ageing skincare, as it works to reduce skin dryness, ultraviolet B radiation, oxidative damage and inflammation, which makes it a fantastic main ingredient in the cream. Those with common skin conditions such as eczema have even claimed it has 'calmed' their skin.

A large 118ml tub of the Egyptian Hydrating Magic Cream typically retails for £33.69 but shoppers can pick it up for £27.99 on Amazon ahead of Prime Day (July 16 and 17). That's a saving of 17% or £5.60. A smaller 59ml version has also been slashed to £18 down from £22.
The Egyptian Hydrating Magic Cream has racked up an impressive overall rating of 4.3 out of five from over 17,720 reviews. One shopper said: "Magic. I don't dislike anything about it. I use it as a moisturiser, to clear up bruises and to heal sunburn. It's a good all-rounder, feels silky and smooth to put on and absorbs fairly quickly."
A second wrote: "I use this daily and I'm always getting comments on how beautiful my skin looks. The tub lasts a very long time, I use it on the my face, neck and chest area. I have only just purchased a new tub after scraping the last of the product out of the last one which lasted 18 months. So little is needed to apply. I also have very sensitive skin and I've had no issues with this product."
A third penned: "I tend to be very sensitive to creams and lotions and break out in rashes easily. I started to use this product about a year ago and have fallen in love with it. Mainly because it is all natural with bee products like propolis and beeswax included. You only need a small amount as it goes a long way and you can use it all over your body too. I am using it on a surgery scar and my skin is healing up very nicely. It is great value for money as it lasts a long time. My face is smoother and softer since I started to use it and I have no more dry areas. It also works great under foundation (don't use too much). You can use it in your hair too."
However, among the three-star review for the Egyptian Hydrating Magic Cream, one shopper said it was 'very expensive' and they did not see 'noticeable results' after two weeks of use. They said: "In my opinion, this cream is very expensive and it doesn't make any difference even after we used it for two weeks. We heard a lot of good things about it but we don't think it is worth spending that much money on."
But another loved their latest Amazon beauty purchase, adding: "I discovered this in the summer and now both me and my teenage are using it as a face night cream and body moisturiser, as it suits both of our skins. I thought it would be too greasy but it absorbs really quickly and my skin looks fresh and glowing. I have previously been spending a lot of money on anti-ageing creams with lots of 'special' ingredients but I love the simplicity and effectiveness of this cream. In fact I've just bought a new pot each for me and my daughter and also for my mum who is in her 70s too."
Also available on Amazon is the beloved Astral Face and Body Intensive Moisturiser Cream, which costs just £4. A favourite of Dame Joanna Lumley, the cream also has 3,770 five-star reviews on Amazon from happy customers. At Boots the Nivea Creme All Purpose Body Cream for face, hands and body is available for £5.99.
