Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Firming Butter

What is it? ******** Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula. It's a kind of moisturising skin cream for the body. Special features? ************* It claims to soften, smooth and relieve dry skin. It's main active and most beneficial ingredient being cocoa butter. It also contains coconut oil and vitamin E. Is it any good? ************ I first bought this so I could use it to moisturise my skin after a shower. But I found it too rich and didn't absorb quick enough before I had to get dressed. I would often feel a bit clammy with all my clothes on, not a good thing. Plus the smell of the cocoa butter is quite strong and as it's ...  Read the complete review

I had never heard of Palmer’s until a little while ago, so the chances are that some people on here haven’t heard of the brand yet either. If you read my review on their ‘Cocoa Butter’ you will know that I passed their products many times in Boots but never investigated further as the packaging looked so cheap. I soon realised the error of my ways after my sister introduced me to the wonderful smoothing effects of the Cocoa Butter. Although the butter is one of the best body moisturisers I have ever used, you need a fair amount if you wish to cover the whole of your body. I only use it on my legs because they get dry, but it still uses more than I would like ...  Read the complete review

Well recently, I've put on weight. No matter what anyone says, I know I have, my clothes feel tighter, I hate looking in the mirror and my self-confidence is very low currently. And all I seem to be doing lately is lounging at home, watching useless TV. So a couple of days ago my old friend came over for the night, and we were having a nice girlie chat, and she recommended using Palmers Coco Butter Firming Butter, as it helped her firm up after she had her daughter. So I thought I'd give it a go.. Okay, firstly, as most of you will know, I love really lovely, sweet smells, and this did not disappoint me. It smelt gorgeous, of Coco and slightly of coconut. It ...  Read the complete review

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 ...  Read the complete review

I got given this for my birthday a few months ago and I instantly fell in love with the smell. Many people have claimed that it's too strong, but i felt that it was just right. I love the chocolatey smell and the strongness fades after awhile, but leaves a nice cocoa smell on your body for hours. Once I had gotten past the wonders of the smell, however, i began to find it quite frustrating. It was exceedingly difficult to spread onto my body. It's quite a thick lotion that I couldn't get to spread far, meaning that I needed to use a lot of the cream and spend a lot of time just trying to get it to cover the whole of my body. On the plus side, once ...  Read the complete review
