IS EGYPTIAN MAGIC REALLY THAT MAGICAL?

For many years, magazines have been raving the salve, Egyptian Magic. Celebrities use it, everyone wants it. So, what is it about this magic?

This is what they say on their website:

Visitors often hear of Egyptian Magic as the solution to a particular skin-related problem, and they are surprised to discover that Egyptian Magic offers many other uses as well. If you look at the Testimonials Page, you will see just how "all-purpose" Egyptian Magic can be. And if you read the Fashion Magazine Reviews, you'll see a whole different side of Egyptian Magic as a beauty cream for skin care and hair conditioning.

To help out, here is a quick summary of some of the main reasons people use Egyptian Magic. (Please remember that we make no medical claims for the product. However, every testimonial we put on the site is unsolicited and unedited.)

Skin Care Moisturizer & Beauty Cream

People often start using Egyptian Magic to solve a skin problem such as a rash or burn or scar, and then continue using it as a skin moisturizer and as an anti-wrinkle skin care cream. We find that using it twice a day does wonders for creating soft, smooth skin. And this, of course, is one of the key reasons Egyptian Magic is so popular among the fashion and movie industry as a beauty cream for face and skin care.

Healing Burns and Treating Cuts and Scrapes

Many of our customers keep an extra jar of Egyptian Magic in their first aid kit exclusively as a treatment for burns, scrapes, skin irritations and the like. Since Egyptian Magic will stay fresh indefinitely, you can store it for an extended period of time without concern for it losing effectiveness.

Healing Scars

Many of our customers have commented on Egyptian Magic's "magical" ability to heal scars. Although we don't recommended it for older scars, Egyptian Magic can indeed work wonders to heal relatively recent scars and skin discolorations. Egyptian Magic is popular among many plastic surgeons, who recommend it to their patients for accelerating the healing of plastic surgery scars.

Natural Hair Conditioner

For many of our customers, one of the most delightful discoveries is how beneficial Egyptian Magic can be as a moisturizing hair conditioner - either on a regular basis or as a conditioning hot pack. Egyptian Magic's all-natural ingredients will restore luster to your hair and replenish its natural oils. Here is an article in People Magazine about how actor Carlos Barnard uses it for hair care, and here is a great testimonial from Lena of London about using Egyptian Magic to control the "frizzies."

Eczema and Psoriasis Treatment

We find that about one-third of our customers discover Egyptian Magic after looking to natural alternatives to commercial moisturizing creams as a treatment for eczema and psoriasis. Though different in nature, both of these conditions can often be treated by the twice-daily application of a moisturizing cream, according to several authorities. All-natural Egyptian Magic is an ideal choice.

Skin Rash Cream

Egyptian Magic is reported to work well in treating all kinds of rashes, including allergic reactions to drugs, chemicals, environmental irritants and insect bites; skin irritants, such as nickel or other metals; heat rash, irritation from clothing, rashes during pregnancy, and so on.

We have used it before and this is our review on the magic:

• It doesn't 'heal' scar per se. If you have a fresh wound, applying this salve would probably create a film over it to prevent bacteria intrusion.

• This is oil, really. Jojoba oil as they say. It is very oily. We used it on our faces and blackheads and whiteheads developed. We would use this in winter climates and occasionally for a moisture boost, but probably not on a daily basis.

• This is like an equivalent of Vaseline, only that it isn't as greasy as Vaseline. Put some in the middle of your palm, rub your palms together to melt the salve and there you go. 

•  It is too oily for hair.

• This is a neutral salve so we would suppose it is good for people who are allergic to most products out there.

We would continue to use the rest of our tub, but we would probably not purchase another tub. This is our 2nd tub and it isn't as magical as what a lot of magazines or celebrities claimed it to be. It is a better 'Vaseline' per se but any old moisturizer and Vaseline would probably do the same job.
