Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula

Advantages: Body butter, moisturises, smoothens, softens, gorgeous scent, good value for money
Disadvantages: None

...I have been using 'Palmers Cocoa Butter' on and off for many years. Palmers Cocoa Butter retails for about £4 - £4.99 for the 270g pack. I buy mine at the local beauty shop and have also bought it in Superdrug previously.. It comes in a large white opaque round jar with a white screw top cover with the words 'Palmer's' in an orange caption and the 'Cocoa Butter Formula' in white letters with a brown caption box.. The rest of the jar has words 'with Vitamin E' and 'Heals & Softens rough, Dry skin' and 'Smoothes Marks & Scars' on the front. The product itself is a dark cream (almost yellow) body butter with a smooth feel. Palmers Cocoa Butter has a sweet noticeable coconut scent on opening the jar and this scent remains long after application to the skin. It contains Cocoa extract, Mineral Oil, Cocoa Seed Butter, Fragrance...

Formula for a Healthy Baby

Advantages: as close as you can get to breastmilk, ready made cartons available
Disadvantages: not as good for your baby as breast feeding, horrible smell, expensive

...Breastfeeding is always best - and I had no intention of giving Leah formula milk when she was born as I was determined to feed her myself. However, the best laid plans... as they say. There will always be some mothers who cannot (or choose not) to breastfeed, and although it practically broke my heart when I had to start giving Leah formula milk, at least I knew I was doing the best I could for her given my circumstances. Aptamil First was recommended to me by the midwives in our local hospital, and because it was the first formula Leah ever had, I have continued to give her it as I saw no good reason to try any other kind. It's probably the most expensive formula milk, but she was happy with it and gaining weight properly and that was good enough for me. Aptamil First is a whey based infant milk suitable from birth until 12...

Finding The Right Formula

Advantages: Excellent visuals and presentation in general, new career mode, 18 courses, challenging
Disadvantages: Initially very daunting, Career mode can seem unrewarding, some elements of the sound

...Little did anyone guess that when Bizarre Creations finished what would be its last Formula One game for the Sony PlayStation in 1997, it would remain the best representation of its sport for so long a time. F1 '98 was a letdown of near-legendary proportions, and with Sony shifting development duties three times in as many years, the PSOne would not see the likes of Formula 1 '97 again. For the PS2 generation, things have settled down rather more for Sony. The games are no longer the subject of hype or anticipation, nor do they top the sales charts quite as frequently as they did in the nineties, but increasingly the official license is proving a real coup. Studio Liverpool (formerly a part of the now-defunct Psygnosis) have been on development duties since 2001 slowly honing their craft, and whilst Formula One 04 doesn't recreate...

...Review of Jungle Formula Extra Strength Insect Repellent Spray, as mentioned in my previous review for insect repellent wipes!

It contains Deet and can be used on children over the age of 10 years The Jungle Formula range has been around for many years and produces products for use both in the UK and abroad.

Hey Man - Formula For Joints

Advantages: Helps your Pet's joints
Disadvantages: Getting your dog to eat them without wrapping them in food

...Health And Happiness For Your Pet I was first told about these tablets by a friend who has an elderly German Shepherd Dog. I then had the brochure on ?Healthy Direct? from a magazine. I decided to get them for my dog Moby who now has only 3 legs as he had his front right leg amputated just before Christmas last year and I thought this would give him added benefits as I felt he was aching a bit. What It Is And Where Obtained. These are tablets from ?Healthy Directs? pet care range. They are called Joint Formula and contain Glucosamine, Chondroitin, and MSM & Vitamin C. These tablets are designed for both dogs and cats.

Review of Joint Formula

Formula One

Advantages: Talented drivers, future changes
Disadvantages: Too predictable, no characters

...The Formula 1 Grand Prix Championship is over for yet another season. Both, Michael Schumacher and Ferrari clearly read their scripts at the start of the season, to produce the predicted result by the end of it. Their domination was plain to see, Schumacher winning 13 races and Ferrari 15 in total, out of a total of 18 races. Ferarri beat their nearest rivals BAR in the constructors championship by achieving more than double their points. Jenson Button came home in third in the Championship, but was unable to record his maiden Grand Prix victory. Jenson's continued emergence does look very positive for British motor racing and he does have the makings of a world champion. I just wonder whether being held back by BAR for another season will hinder his progress. Many people, including myself, do agree that Formula 1 is dominated...

Smells so good you could eat it... Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula

Advantages: Great creamy,thick texture. Good purchase price. Last along time, the smell of the product!
Disadvantages: As the bottle gets towards empty it is difficult to get the last bits of cream out

...It was when I returned from a holiday and went to see a friend that I first discovered the wonderful world of Palmers Cocoa Butter. At the time I was experiencing horrible peeling skin and had a rapidly disappearing sun tan when my friend advised me that I needed to slap some moisturiser on and quick! I informed I had but she went and got me her regular moisturiser from her bathroom cupboard, this was the Palmers Cocoa Butter, since that day and I am talking way over 7 years I have been using the Cocoa Butter. The Palmers brand was formed over 160 years ago in America and was one of the first skin care companies. The brand has gone from strength to strength and now has many products available on the market. Not only do Palmers offer the Cocoa Butter formula there is an extensive list of other items available such as; ~ Butter...

Review of Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula

Palmer's Cocoa butter formula is well worth the price.

Advantages: Smells nice, smooths skin, relieves dryness
Disadvantages: Took a long time to absorb, caused breakouts on face, consistant use needed

...I found that Palmer's Cocoa butter formula is defiantly worth it for the price that it's at. For just £3.50 for a 250ml easy to use flip bottle there's no point not giving it a go on those marks and scars! At first, as I noticed the item on the shop shelf, I was a little sceptic about whether or not the product would work as well as it says on the bottle as it claims to 'Soften, smoothes and relieves dry skin. Also helps smooth and blend unattractive marks and scars'. But after a few good reviews about this product, I thought, why not? So I took the bottle home, and as soon as I opened it I could smell the delicious and beautiful cocoa butter. The smell seemed so soothing and relaxing and the colour was a brownish tanning colourer which and increased my faith in the product, also it made the product seem a lot more natural. I applied it...

In spite of the Jungle Formula , Brittle still gets bitten!

Advantages: An easy to use, convenient product
Disadvantages: It didn't work for me!

...Review of Jungle Formula Insect Repellent Wipes What are they?= Jungle Formula Insect Repellent Wipes are a handy way of keeping biting and stinging creepy crawlies away. The Jungle Formula range has been around for many years and produces products for use both in the UK and abroad. The wipes come in boxes of 15 individually sealed sachets. This product is ideal to pop in a pocket or bag for use whenever the need arises, to protect you whilst you are out and about. Jungle Formula wipes provide up to 6 hours protection and can be used on children from the age of three. Why I bought them Well, this is self explanatory really! I am particularly vulnerable to insect bites and seem to attract the little beasts like a magnet, if there is something about that will bite, I guarantee it will find me! As regular readers of my...

Formula 3, 2, 1 go!

Advantages: Only official game!
Disadvantages: unrealistic penalties.

...This is certainly a love or hate game. If you love F1, this game will appeal to you, but if it bores you rigid, then so will this game. I'm a bit late with the review, with its releases an entire 2 years ago, but I thought I could at least share my 'self-appraised' wisdom! F1 '06 is a good and realistic game, and is the only official game of its kind. Being a keen Formula 1 fan myself, I was hoping for another release with the likes of Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel soon. But my wishes seem to have gone unnoticed. There is a broad range of selection at your disposal, for example; *Race Weekend - A weekend of F1 racing. You choose the track, the driver and get to compete in Friday practice sessions, Saturday practice sessions and of course, Qualifying and the race itself. *Career Mode - Here you can work your way up the ranks...
