Palmers Cocoa Butter

Palmer's are a brand famous for producing top-quality cocoa and Shea butter skincare products for a low cost. They easily compete with other more expensive brands of cocoa butter and are just as lush to use. The product I am reviewing is the cocoa butter formula lotion, which is a cream version of the original solid cocoa butter. I first came across this product when I received a free sample of the body butter and wanting to find a more convenient ...
...From the second I opened the bottle, I loved this product - I mean, who doesn't want to smell like chocolate?! (The best food in the world). What do the ingredients do and what are the promises? This product claims to heal and soften rough, dry skin and smooth and blend unattractive marks and scars. It helps tone the skin and is ideal for deep moisturisation, especially overnight treatments. It contains vitamin E that has an antioxidant quality, ...

Review of Palmers Cocoa Butter

...are very good I discovered Palmers was just the best! So why do I love it so much? Firstly I love the smell, a rich, yummy chocolaty scent that you cannot wait to smother yourself in and yet at the same time the smell isn’t overpowering. You could imagine the chocolatiness of it all to be sickly, but it’s surprisingly fresh. And while the smell does stay on your skin it won’t out do any other scent you choose to wear. However if smell isn’t your ...
...But I would still advise anyone to give it a go, no matter their skin type. Palmers also offer a wide range of other moisturising products which may be more suitable for your needs, however I only really know this product but I would recommend them as a brand. ...

Review of Palmers Cocoa Butter

...and bought a tub of Palmers Cocoa Butter and ive never been without it since. Ive tried many lotions and potions that im encouraged to try from those skinny waifs on the television who have perfect figures and not a stretch mark or an inch of flab to be seen on them, but still im sucked into trying them out..... but i always revert back to my old trusty faithful 'Palmers Cocoa Butter'. (",) The Look (",) It is easily noticeable on the shelves amongst ...
...around. It comes in a white plastic tub with ‘Palmer’s’ written on the front of the tub and it is very old fashioned looking. (",) The Cocoa Butter (",) When you take off the lid the first thing you notice is the sweet smell, it reminds me of Easter Eggs for some reason and it does linger for a long period of time, by the time you have finished covering yourself in it, you are almost good enough to eat. The butter itself is thankfully not the ...

Review of Palmers Cocoa Butter

...a recommendation from my sister Palmers Cocoa Butter seemed a good option for the moisturiser, so when wandering around Tescos killing time between my morning swim and the need to get to work I picked up a bottle. Checking that I could live with the smell and trying to ignore that little voice in my head that tells me not to waste money on expensive products I bought it. The bottle is an unusual shape, with a rounded main body and a tapering neck ...
...avaliable on their website. Palmers also tell you that the product is not tested on animals which is to be commended and that once opened it should be used within 12 months. I paid around £2.50 for this bottle and I would say that this is pretty good value as I suspect it will last for quite some time, though costs far more than the usual store brands I use. ...

Review of Palmers Cocoa Butter

Oh dear, I am back in the girls world again..maybe it's a sign that I have been living with my girlfriend for too long but hey, it's the 21st century and I'm a modern man. I will review Cocoa Butter cream with PRIDE!! My girlfriend uses this stuff all the time, there is a huge range, from lip salve to body oil to creams. The product I will review here is the ALL OVER BODY BUTTER. It comes in a 10 oz large tub and costs around £4, more if you buy ...
...a cream but the tubs do seem to last for ages so it makes sense in the long run. The cream is very thick, like butter and you only need to use a tiny amount otherwise it can be quite greasy. Also, if you put your clothes on too quick (ie before it has dried) you may leave marks on your clothes-so get naked! Oh and put a bowl of water next to your radiators as it puts some moisture back in the air which the central heating takes away. I know that ...

Review of Palmers Cocoa Butter

Review of Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula (With a new Flip Bottle!) I noticed a sample sachet of this product in a Glamour Magazine, which I thought I would try-out on my skin that evening. I get quite dry skin on my elbows and knees and my Husband in particular has very dry elbows and some marks on his back. I moisturise everyday with a mixture of lotions and potions including Body Shop Body Butters and other brand. I really didn’t think I could ...
...Butters, which are so luxurious and creamy-but I think I may have found one! Price: I loved the sample sachet of this product so much, I went straight out the next day to purchase a full bottle of the stuff! I went to my local Superdrug store and was so please that they had it in stock and that it was on offer at just under £3 for a 250ml bottle. The usual price is just over £3 which I thought was quite good anyway. I was very pleased with the price ...

Review of Palmers Cocoa Butter

...had sorted it out. Palmers cocoa butter is easily found in high street stores such as Superdrug and Boots and prices range from £3.25 for 250ml, so it works out that this product is £1.65 per 100ml which is slightly more expensive than your average moisturiser but it is worth it. Cocoa Butter is avaliable in oil, cream or in mould form which is in a tub and you roll it round in your hands to make it soft enough to spread. The advantages of using ...
...is an advanced moisturiser that softens, smoothes & relieves dry skin, it is perfect for anyone who has got sensitive skin like i am and are unable to use perfumed products, cocoa butter does not irritate skin. Cocoa butter is also enriched with Vitamin E to make this fast–absorbing lotion. it goes deep in to the skin to get rid of the dryness & helps restore vital moisture which is lost easily from evryday activities. Your skin will feel naturally ...

Review of Palmers Cocoa Butter

...orange and brown (retro coloured) Palmers logo sprawled across the front of the bottle and a brown backed label with “Cocoa Butter Formula”. The bottle comes without a box so less rubbish to throw away. ~SMELL~ There is a distinctive smell to Palmer’s. The cream is a yellowy-creamy colour and smells rather sickly. Sickly in a nice way but you can continually smell it throughout the day, which is why I describe it as sickly. But ...
...To describe the smell well, it reminds on of when you make a cake and you cream the butter and sugar together with a cross between that and vanilla essence. WOOOOO Kate talk about going off the subject! ~DOES IT ACTUALLY WORK?~ As I say I have been using this since about June time. I have been using it before then but I kept using my best mates cream as she bought it primarily for stopping stretch marks when she was pregnant. She only came out ...

Review of Palmers Cocoa Butter

...an all over body moisturiser Palmers Cocoa Butter formula cream wins hands down. I'm quite possibly in love with this stuff! I first discovered Palmers around 6 months ago. My Mum gave me a pot which she had bought and used on a handful of occasions but found it wasn't to her liking. Prior to this I had been using Cocoa Butter by another well known more expensive brand so was quite willing to try Palmers as the pot I would normally buy cost £10. ...
...am actually reviewing is the Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula which is available in a 100g plastic pot. It is available at most leading Pharmacies and online at www.palmerscocoabutter.com. Palmers Cocoa Butter contains: Vitamin E, Theobroma Cocao extract, mineral oil, microcrystalline wax, Theobroma butter, Dimethicone, Fragrance Tocopheryl acetate and Carotene. All Palmers products come in distinctive white packaging with the Palmers Logo in an orange ...

Review of Palmers Cocoa Butter

I first bought Palmers Cocoa Butter as I was told that it was good for stretch marks and softening skin... as well as smelling yummy! The second part of this I have definitely found to be true, and while not a miracle worker on stretch marks, it definitely helps. More than this, Palmers is, for my skin anyway, a wonderful all round product. The Product- My first impression on using Palmers was that it smelled gorgeous. The lovely cocoa smell also ...
...Packaging- The packaging of Palmers is very attractive, meaning it looks good out in the bathroom! The butter I bought also came with a pump, making it very clean and easy to put on. Price- At around £3.00, Palmer's is more expensive than some moisturisers, but at the same time cheaper than many products for scars and stretch marks. Considering its uselfulness and number of uses, I think this is well worth investing in as it serves the role of so ...

Review of Palmers Cocoa Butter

...and lower legs. As Palmers cocoa butter claims to ‘smooth and blend unattractive marks and scars’ I thought I would give it go. It also says that it is brilliant for stretch marks and is widely recommended during pregnancies, and after so if there are some mums to be out there worried about these marks that look like the map of England on their body, this is the stuff to buy. You can buy it from superdrug, boots and most other highstreet chemists. ...
...months now and although it is no miracle worker, my stretch marks haven’t disappeared but they definitely have become less noticeable. Unless I said something about them you wont notice them, however these are quite new stretch marks and it doesn’t work so well on older ones. However its not just for stretch marks, I use this as my regular body lotion now, and I apply it after I’ve had a shower or a bath and it leaves your skin really smooth and ...

Review of Palmers Cocoa Butter

THE TASTE Whoops! Forgive me for making that mistake but if you are one of the lucky ones that have sniffed this product you will know why (and if you haven’t, you will by the end of this review!) I think the only two questions that need be asked before purchasing this product are: 1) Do you like chocolate? 2) Would you like soft skin? If the answer is yes to either of these then you really should buy this product immediately! As soon as the ...
...very sweet, melted chocolate bar graces your nasal passage. If it WERE a food it would certainly be the best snack in the world, but criminally fattening. This product would be either great or suicidal for those trying to cut chocolate out of their diet. It could work one of two ways – you would either feel as if you had just eaten a delicious chocolate bar and have your craving satisfied OR it would tempt you so much that you would need the real ...

Review of Palmers Cocoa Butter

I am brand loyal, not strictly mind..i do like to go wild and try new things every now and again but i always come back to firm favourites and one of those being the palmer's cocoa butter formula with vitamin e. The bottle is a simple white colour of 250ml's...with a sky blue label on the front with the palmer's orange tag and claims on the front to soften, smooth and relieve dry skin. The blurb at the back tells me it also helps smooth and blend ...
...wow so thats a lot of claims from one small white ordinary bottle but i can truly say it lives up to all those promises and more.. the actualy colour is a yellow-orange and the consistency is pretty thick like some hair conditioners can be but its also suprisingly light and absorbs into the skin in a matter of minutes. It smoothens my skin and tones it and feels so light and luxurious all for less than £4 pounds a bottle..its almost a staple in every ...

Review of Palmers Cocoa Butter

Dry skin is an absolute nightmare, no question about that. There's a lot of people around who suffer from this particular skin complaint, and I'm most certainly one of them. There's so many things these days that dry our skin out, so that whatever you can find which helps to combat this and moisturise your skin, is an absolute godsend. And Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula is most definitely one of mine. I discovered this about 18 months ago when I ...
...and went in for a closer look. Obviously being a bloke and not following the "look with your eyes" rule, within 30 seconds I'd squirted a generous dollop on my hands and rubbed it into my face The perfect crime, or so I thought. However, not so...For the first thing that will hit you about this product is the smell. Unlike other cocoa butters that I've seen, this smells well and truly of cocoa. I was rumbled The smell of this cocoa butter is absolutely ...

Review of Palmers Cocoa Butter

I bought Palmers Cocoa Butter when I recieved notice that I was pregnant with my first child about three years ago. All of my friends kept telling me "you are only 110 lbs....your stretch marks are going to be huge"! So I decided to take their advice they gave me on a product called Palmers Cocoa Butter. Needless to say...I worried about the stretch mark issue for the entire pregnancy. Besides the worries, my skin was always dry anyway...so I figured ...
...moisturized! I bought Palmers Cocoa Butter and used it faithfully (3 times a day), for the entire 9 months of pregnancy! In case you are wondering there aren't any harsh chemicals to hurt the baby! However their are chemicals in it like...Glycerin, Stearic Acid, Glycol Stearate, and Fragrance....Again... none of these ingredients will effect your baby! I also used Palmers on the rest of my body and I noticed quite a difference in my skin tone and ...
