The All-Purpose Skin Cream Australians Are Obsessed With
If you've heard people raving about Egyptian Magic and wondered what all the fuss is about, you're not alone. This cult-favourite, 5-ingredient skin cream has been used by celebrities, dermatologists, and everyday Australians for decades. But what exactly is it used for?
The short answer - almost everything.
What is Egyptian Magic Cream?
Egyptian Magic is a 100% natural, fragrance-free, all-purpose skin cream made from just five ingredients: olive oil, beeswax, honey, bee pollen, and royal jelly. No synthetic fragrances, no parabens, no fillers. Just pure, skin-loving ingredients that have been used for thousands of years.
What Can You Use Egyptian Magic For? Here Are Our Top Uses.
1. Face Moisturiser
Egyptian Magic is deeply hydrating without clogging pores. Apply a small amount to your face morning or night as a moisturiser — a little goes a long way. It's particularly loved by those with dry, sensitive, or eczema-prone skin.
2. Lip Balm
Chapped lips? Apply a tiny amount of Egyptian Magic to your lips for instant relief. It seals in moisture and keeps lips soft and smooth all day.
3. Body Moisturiser
Dry elbows, knees, or heels? Egyptian Magic works beautifully as a targeted body balm. Rub it into rough patches before bed and wake up with noticeably softer skin.
4. Hair Treatment
Use Egyptian Magic as an overnight hair mask or tame flyaways with a tiny amount on dry ends. The beeswax and olive oil help nourish and condition dry, damaged hair.
5. Tattoo Aftercare
Egyptian Magic is a favourite in the tattoo community for keeping new ink hydrated and vibrant during healing. Its natural, fragrance-free formula is gentle enough for sensitive, freshly tattooed skin.
6. Skin Barrier Repair
The combination of beeswax and honey creates a protective barrier that locks in moisture and supports the skin's natural repair process — ideal for irritated, wind-burned, or post-procedure skin.
7. Baby Skin
Egyptian Magic's pure, natural formula makes it a popular choice for babies. Many parents use it on nappy rash, dry patches, and cradle cap.
Which Size is Right for You?
Egyptian Magic comes in four sizes to suit every lifestyle. The 7.5ml Mini Jar is perfect for trialling the cream or keeping in your pocket. The 30ml Handbag Size is ideal for on-the-go touch-ups. The 59ml Travel Size fits neatly in your toiletry bag, while the 118ml Original Size is best for everyday home use.
