Hello!
Months ago I uploaded a video talking about the Egyptian Magic All-Purpose Skin
Cream! At the time I had only used it for a few things, but on camera I tried a
few things out for the first time. I said that I would put up a blog post with
all of the uses that are listed on the website, along with an explanation on if
I tried it or not as well as info on what happened if I did. It's a few months
late, but here it is! I've also added my own uses at the very end (they'll be
in a different colour). This blog post will change once in a while as I try it
out for more of the uses or as my opinions change. I'll add the video to the
bottom of this post, but here's an awkward picture of me holding the jar!
#1: Amazing moisturizer - Very true. I take a small
amount and rub it between my fingers and apply it to wherever my skin feels a
bit dry. This isn't my everyday moisturizer because I don't want to waste it,
but when my skin is irritated from being dry this is my go to!
#2: Healing Burns - Thankfully I have not had to try this yet. Steven, however,
is very clumsy and always burns himself so next time I'm going to try this on
him!
#3: Treating Cuts and Scrapes - I have used this on cuts
(my dog enjoys jumping on me and struggling when I'm cutting his nails) so this
has come in handy. It definitely made the cut stop stinging. I did not see a
scar, but I usually don't scar easily unless the cut is deep or if it's on my
face (I'm looking at you acne scars!)
#4: Fading scars - I don't know why I haven't tried this yet. I think I'll start tonight on my face and my shoulder!
#5:
Eczema & Psoriasis Relief - Yes yes yes! I have Eczema and this
definitely gave me relief! Thankfully my eczema only lasts for three months out
of the year so now I just have a few scars left that I will start working on
tonight!
#6:
Hair Conditioner - Again I have not tried this because I do not want to
waste the product. I probably won't end up trying it for this, but let me know
if you have!
#7: Lip
Balm - This works pretty well as a lip balm! It's not my favourite because
it fades off easily (I'm a lip biter), but as a lip mask over night it's quite
nice!
#8:
After shave - I completely forgot to get Steven to try this out. It'll be
hard to convince him because he fears all things oil (he doesn't understand
that it won't make his skin permanently oily)
#9:
After Sun Lotion- Unfortunately it's still winter here and true sunlight is
scarce. In the Spring and Summer I'll update this.
#10: Vaginal
Moisturizer and Lubricant - Hahahahah yeah I tried it once. It works.
That's all I'm going to say.
#11:
Hand and Cuticle cream - Hand cream yes. Very nice and moisturizing
and it doesn't stay oily for long so I can go back to typing and using my phone
very quickly without any residue!
#12:
Makeup remover - I have tried this one time, but I don't think I did it
right (as I mentioned in the video review). I'm currently wearing a full face
of makeup with a very hard to remove liquid lipstick so tonight I'll try this
the proper way and I'll let you know how it goes!
#13:
Eye Cream - I've tried this once, but I wasn't a huge fan of it. It might
work ok for you if you don't currently have an eye cream that you enjoy. I
actually have one that I absolutely love so that's probably why this wasn't my
favourite.
#14:
Massage Balm - Would you believe that Steven still hasn't tried this out
on me? I think it's time to talk him into a nice massage.
#15:
Tattoo Aftercare - I'm hoping to get my next tattoo in the spring or
summer so I'll update you then!
#16:
Diaper Rash - Unfortunately there are no babies to try this out on. I
mean, there are babies, but we rarely see them so I'd feel awkward bringing my
little tub and saying: "Does little ____ have a diaper rash? Let me know
and you can try this out!" I'm sure I'll be able to try this out one day,
but not in the near future. Probably not with the same tub.
#17:
During and After Pregnancy - Again, I won't be able to try this out for a
few years, but if this blog still exists I'll update it during my future
pregnancy! I'm sure I'll be filming videos throughout since those are some of
my favourites to watch! I'm weird, I know.
#18:
Makeup Primer - I have not, and likely will not try it just because this
doesn't work too well with my morning face care, and it would use up the
product way too quickly. But I can see this being really nice for a natural day
when you're only using powder foundation and a few other things!
#19:
Hydrating Face Mask - I do want to try this, but so far my skin hasn't
completely freaked out on me so I don't feel like using the amount required for
this until then. Man I really haven't tried most of these!
#20:
Cracked Heels and Elbows - This works well! I put this on my feet and
immediately put on fluffy socks (I feel like those help with this) and at the
end of the day my heels are much softer!
#21: Highlighter! -
I tried this out on camera and was very pleasantly surprised by how pretty it
looks! I wouldn't wear this on top of foundation as it may break it down, but
on a no makeup day this will give such a nice glow! Recently I've been wearing
makeup maybe twice a week so this makes me look like I'm actually alive.
#22: Brow Gel -
I also tried this on camera and it worked pretty well! Again, I probably
wouldn't wear this with brow makeup underneath, but if I just want to tame my
brows a bit this works amazingly!
#23: Natural Mascara -
Another use that I tried out on camera. This worked ok, but I don't know if it
was noticeable enough to be worth it. You can be the judge of that based on my
video below! You can skip to the last third of the video and see it somewhere
near there.
#24: Dry/Cracking Dog Paws - Chewy doesn't usually get dry paws, but when he does
I put this on. Most of our living space is covered in carpet so it doesn't
leave any paw prints, but it does make a difference. I also put this on his nails
after I file them so they aren't so sharp and it gives his cuticles a bit of a
condition.
#25: Raw nose from having a cold - This past week I've been so sick. I've gone through
two entire tissue boxes as well as one entire toilet paper role. This has caused
my nose to become raw on the sides and it is painful. I decided to try this out
last night as I don't wake up to blow my nose so there's healing time. This was
so good! Anything that I would put on—including water—would burn. This didn't
burn one bit and immediately soothed the slightly raw skin. I highly recommend
trying this out if you get runny noses frequently. Especially if you live in
Canada!
Here's the video! I don't have a speck of makeup on so you
can truly see what it looks like :) All opinions are 100% my own. Just because
I get something for free doesn't mean that I'll automatically lie about it. I
didn't get paid to make the video or this post... or at all for that matter
:D
