Wow - I love this lipbalm it's just the best out there in my opinion it's got so many uses, I use it on my nose when I have a cold to stop it getting raw from tissues and I use it on my lips daily and especically when it's sunny because it's protects them from the sun too.
I have the smaller stick which is a bit more practical I think. It leaves a subtle sheen on your lips - not glittery or anything just leaves them looking slightly moist which is nice!
It smells wonderful and it's not sticky which is great because if I kiss my boyfriend with it on he doesn't complain!! If you are looking for a great nourishing, moisturising and multipurpose lipbalm and generally make up bag gem then look no further !!!!
I absolutely LOVE this product! It's very all-purpose, much like Aquaphor, and it's just amazing. I use it on my lips to moisturize (which can't tolerate mint or camphor anymore, it dries them out immediately), my face to tackle dry spots -- it's a must-have in my purse! It's so cheap too, but unfortunately it's hard to find in my area and I have to order it from drugstore.com. I love this and can't rave enough about it! I also used it on my stubborn acne scabs -- I'm a picker, unfortunately -- because Neosporin was making them redder, and the CB stick calmed them overnight! Amazing!! I don't use Aquaphor much anymore because it was breaking me out around my lipline, but for really stubborn dry patches and my awful cuticles, Aquaphor is the answer. For everything else, I use the CB stick.
This is really emollient and has a great cocoa scent! I also just love the extra large size. I will be buying a few more of these.
Overall this product helped my lips to become soft and healed very well. Smells great also, but just the part that is a downer is that the price is really expensive but well worth it..and it lasted me for almost 6 mnths!
This is one of the only products I have finished up and repuchased. I am currently on my third tube of this. I use the cocoa butter stick on my lips both in the morning and at night, yet a tube lasts me a year or two. Although I primarily use this as a lip moisturizer it has a myraid of uses. At times i've used it to remove or freshen eye make up, as a moisturizer for dry spots, and on my cuticles. With it's virtually ennumerable uses this stuff is the WD40 of personal grooming products.
It will always have a place in my makeup bag.
This product is great! I had a bad cold and was looking for something to put on my nose so it wouldn't get irritated from using so many tissues. It worked great! I totally recommend it! Much better than anything I've ever used before! The only reason I didn't rate the stick a 5 was becasue the smell is sort of intense...and since I use it for my nose, I'd prefer something less fragrant. I'm pretty sensitive to smelly products, but if you like cocoa/vanilla, this isn't bad. I use it everytime I get a cold, and as long as I apply it often, my nose never gets red or sore at all anymore! Try it next time you have a cold! It's also a fantastic lip moisturizer. One stick will last you for years... so it's a great buy too!
I picked this up after reading the reviews here. I must say that I really like it! The smell is rich but not too strong. I like the packaging a lot, it is simple and sturdy. I have been using it on my lips mostly, and it is making them very soft. It is a giant tube, but I would repurchase if I ever run out.
I don't care for the smell or taste and I don't think it does that great of a job for my lips either.
Cocoa Butter Stick is my favourite product in the Palmers range! Love the infamous chocolate-y scent and its versatility. I use it mostly on my lips, but it's also useful on elbows, knees and even as an overnight hand treatment - but a little too greasy to use as a hand lotion. And at a mere AU$6, it's an absolute bargain!
