Egyptian Magic All Purpose Skin Cream is not for me. I have normal to combination skin and this cream is way to greasy for me. It is heavy and leaves a significant shine, both of which I find unappealing for application anywhere on my skin. The scent is not too appealing either. It has a strange honey fragrance, but not one that I care for at all. I gave this cream a try for over a week before throwing in the towel, hoping I would see improved results after my skin adjusted to this "miracle". No such luck for me! I have read of Egyptian Magic All Purpose Skin Cream applied to hair as a conditioner, so I may try that as an alternative use. However, I am not sure I could tolerate the smell of the product on my hair. I really wanted to like this skin cream and feel I gave it a fair amount of time to prove its worthiness to my skin care regimen, but it certainly fell short of impressing me and I have no plans to purchase it again. Perhaps someone with exceptionally dry skin would have better results that I did.

I am not a fan of this product. I received a sample of Egyptian Magic All Purpose Skin Cream in a beauty box subscription. I tried it out on my hands and it feels like rough grease being rubbed on. It does not absorb in and my hands were super shiny. Being a person who tries to use all natural products, this is not for me. I was intrigued at first because it can be used for so many things apparently, but I just didn't like it. It smelled so weird and was greasy like I said. I use coconut oil on my skin and it isn't as greasy as this, plus it absorbs well. Scent Hated the scent. I don't even know how to describe it. Like honey, but bad. Because I find honey smells good. Maybe rancid honey? Absorption This didn't absorb into my skin. It just kind of sat on top like a puddle of grease. Maybe if your skin is super dry it will, possibly use it on elbows or feet. Effectiveness Blah. I hated it. It smelled weird, looked weird. I just didn't like it. It's not the product for me personally.

I bought this product a few years back, when I saw heard many great things about. I can share 2 different ways on how this changed my life. The first thing you must know, however, is the texture of this product. It is oil; solid oil in the container, but as your skin comes in contact with the product, it will turn into a thick oil. But it can always be used at the night time when no one can see us (haha). This cream is more like a treatment as opposed to a regular cream. It is heavily hydrating. If you have dry and flaky skin, one use can cure this. More uses makes my skin even more moisturizing. It makes my skin glow the next day and it's amazing! There were occasions where I grew a rough and patchy area on my hip. This little problem stayed for 2 weeks and did not improve when i put lotion on it. After two uses of this product, it disappeared! I couldn't believe the "magic". Although this cream claims to be multipurpose, I cannot argue for/against the benefits for aged-skin since I haven't reached that stage yet. However, I do have alot of acne; it has not helped me with my scars yet, but I cannot dedicate myself to use this product daily for a long time. This also explains why I cannot give this product a 5/5; it's way too oily! I can use it occasionally, but definitely not daily because it will rub off to my hair and clothes. It's still not bad to keep it in your cabinet for your occasional go-to product for dry skin! It lasts forever, too. Will recommend this el natural product! Effectiveness Use it for long-term and you'll definitely have better skin

LOVE LOVE LOVE IT Scent There are no added scents. Just it's natual scent of the ingredient. Not strong or bad at all. Absorption As long as you don't OVERuse you should be just fine with not getting a greasy effect. Effectiveness Here are just some of the things my family has used it for: Eczema, chapped lips, burns, cuts, night cream, eye cream, cuticle oil, growing prego belly, rashes. the list goes on....

I love hot pepper, so I eat it almost everyday, consequently, there are always some whelks on my face, especially my forehead. I have tried many ways to stop it, but just have no effect or little effect. Several days ago, when I visted a skin care forum, someone were discussing about egyptian magic cream, and many of them said that it was very effective at whelks, so I decided to have a try. A few days ago,I got my cream, and just that day I started to use it. Sometimes the product we use has add so many ingredients which make the product so complex, but no good effect, so I think maybe the more simple the product it is, the more effective it is. The cream just contains olive oil,beeswax,honey,bee pollen, royal jelly and propolis extract, there is no chemical or preservative,I like this point very much. And after a few days, I find that my skin become very smooth, feel like baby skin,and my whelks become smaller and samller, some of them just disappear!In addition, my skin become more luster. My dark pouches also become light. When I applied it on my hands at night, they became smooth the next day also. So the egyptian magic cream is really a all purpose skin cream, you can use it at your face, your hands, your feet, even your hair! There is a tip for use, since it takes about 30 minutes for your skin to absorb the cream, it may look very oil at first, and if you use it during the day, it may also oil, so most of the time I just use the cream at night.

Guys, if you are like me the last thing you want is some slimy substance that you have to try to rub in or wipe off in order to get rid of.  Well, I have to admit, my wife talked me into trying this stuff, and now I love it!  My wife has always tried to talk me into "doing something" about the bags under my eyes.  I don't know if you can detect them very well from my published picture, but all of my adult life I have had these bags under my eyes.  I never paid any attention to her about it and just thought it was silly.  I am low maintenance.  I trim this and that, shower, shave, and brush my teeth.  Other than combing my hair, that's about it.  Well a couple of months ago my beautiful Hispanic wife brings home this Magic Egyptian Cream.  She said that one of her girlfriends had told her about it.  She was using it as a conditioner.  My wife started using it that way, then as a skin cream.  The bottom line is that one day she talks me into letting her apply some to my face.  She started rubbing it in every night and now according to her and my sister-in-law the bags under my eyes are going away.  I also get to enjoy her long hair because ever since she has been using it as a conditioner, she hasn't wanted to cut it!

My dressing table and my bathroom both are filled with every kind of skin cream there is, and in truth I think almost all of them do an adequate job on my skin. I do have average skin, though, and if you have trouble with dryness or oiliness you doubtless are a more demanding consumer of skin cream than I am. The Magic Egyptian skin cream is a little on the expensive side for my taste, and I really have not noticed any improvement in my skin versus the other skin creams I have long experience with. I happen to like the Magic Egyptian jar, but that really isn't much an endorsement of the skin cream itself. I happened to get three jars on the advice of my coworker, who absolutely swears by Magic Egyptian, but I really don't know if all end up using my entire supply of this supposed innovation in skin care. I can say that I have experienced no skin irritation from the cream or any bad reaction to the fragrance it includes.

A friend of mine recommend this product to me a year ago. At first I did not really like it. I felt it was hard to apply, and it was too greasy to my skin (I have fair, sensitive skin. And combination type). But later as winter came, I started to like this product. It may not be suitable for a daily face cream, but it is perfect for face massage. Normally once in two or three days, I have a good amount of this cream in hand, apply all over my face and neck, and the followed by a ten minutes massage which I was told is good for lifting and toning my skin. This magic egyptian all purpose skin cream is really good for massage is because it is heavy, a little bit greasy, and not easy to be absorbed by skin if only used as face cream. But when it is used as massage cream, as you massage the skin, the process helps your skin absorbs nutrition better. And since normally it stays at the surface of skin longer, it gives you more time for massage with out irritating the skin. I love this cream.

I have to say I try all kinds of creams, lotions, oils and body butter but this was just as the name states "magic". The cream goes on smooth, not thick and blends evenly to leave a satin soft smooth, yet not greasy feeling.  I have sensitive skin so it was wonderful to find that the lotion has no additives that will break out problem prone sensitive skin users.  Most creams that state they are for sensitive skin automatically seem to cost you more but I am amazed at the low cost of this product.  Compared to other brands the price was lower and the amount larger;a great but for those looking for a smart shop!  Perfect for the end of long day to come home, wash your day away and relax with the soft and relaxing scent and feel of this egyptian miracle cream

The magic Egyptian all purpose cream works beatifully on the skin, especially for dry skin.  It makes the skin mooth and soft.  This is the cream that I use on a regular basis in the morning and before I got to sleep.  I wish i discovered this cream a long time ago.  I recommend it for everybody.
