If you dread the arduous task of a post-shower lotion rub-down, actress Kate Walsh has a game-changing recommendation. The Grey’s Anatomy star, 55, shared with People the body oil that cuts her moisturizing time in half—without sacrificing any of the glowy, plumping benefits of a good lotion. The star of the show (other than Walsh) is Elizabeth Arden’s Eight Hour Cream All-Over Miracle Oil.

The name says it all—the luxurious oil brings the spa experience home with its light floral fragrance, and it can be used literally from head to toe. It contains a blend of tsubaki oil, grapeseed oil, and ginger root extract to soften, hydrate, and invigorate the skin and hair. And even better—all of those nurturing ingredients are delivered through a convenient and quick spray nozzle. So there’s no need to fuss with a pump or squeeze tube—simply mist, rub, and go.

“I discovered this a couple of years ago, and I really love it. I put it in the bath. I keep it in the shower. It’s everywhere,” Walsh told People.

And she’s not the only one who loves it. Reviewers rave about its silky texture and long-lasting moisture, which makes it a fierce competitor to its best-selling cousin, the Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream (beloved by Belinda Carlisle and Catherine Zeta-Jones).

“Perfect after the shower. Leaves skin feeling soft & dewey for hours,” one reviewer wrote. “I love to use this miracle oil first and last in my routine. It always produces velvety texture, very smooth, very supple,” another added. “I’ve been using the Eight Hour Miracle Oil for several years and it’s a product I can’t be without! I mainly use it on my face and neck and love how soft and nourished it leaves my skin. I use it morning and night, and also use any excess on some of the frizzy ends of my hair. It’s really a great product!” someone else wrote.

Aside from the oil, Walsh also shared a few other beauty favorites with People. “I love anything that is about wellness and aging not just gracefully, but in a healthy way,” she said. That’s why she’s a fan of the GrandeLash MD Lash Enhancing Serum ( “People think I’m wearing mascara even when I’m not,” she said.), BioEffect’s EGF Plumping and Firming Serum, and more.
