Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Moisturiser with Vitamin E

Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula moisturiser is something I’ve used for a very long time now. I always buy mine from Home Bargains as this is where it’s the cheapest, however, this very popular product is available just about anywhere to buy. It’s in every supermarket and chemist I have been in though it costs more in Sainsbury’s I have recently noticed. I pay only £1.59 for a 250ml bottle from Home Bargains.

It is marginally more expensive than other 'leading brands' (see below) but I have noticed a much greater improvement in my dry skin than with other ... more

well, the only thing that really disappointed me about this product was that when i took it to the counter to pay; it have almost doubled in price since i looked on the shelf. It had been marked wrogn sadly and i ended up spending more money than hoped. Other than that it is a fairly good product, i liked the cocoa smell, it was sweet, if a little overpowering, but left an almost edible sent behind; which i have eventually become accustomed to.
