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,, Microcrystalline Wax, Dimethicone, Tocopheryl acetate, Benzyl Alcohol and Carotene.

Palmers Cocoa Butter is recommended as one of the products that helps to smooth and blend unattractive marks and scars.

It is great as a moisturiser to use all over the body and is recommended as an after tanning butter and after exposure to the sun and wind. It is also recommended for stretch marks & during and after pregnancy.

In my opinion, the product makes my skin smooth and soft and leaves it feeling clean, fresh and pampered when I use it as a body butter and moisturiser after a shower or bath.

As for the stretch marks, I think you'd have to use this all the time for a very long time to see a big difference, I do not notice the change on mine but then I do not use it everyday, maybe some may choose to differ on that...

It is also good value for money as it comes in a large jar with a generous amount that lasts long.

I'd recommend...
