Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula was a present for my wife. The scent is wonderful, and the skin looks wonderful after using it. It's smooth and sweet, and it lasts a long time while still soothing. This moisturizing cream can be used to relieve dry skin, stretch marks, and discoloration. It immediately calms the skin and evens out the complexion.

I was using the formula in the bottle, my skin looked great. I then begun using the formula in the tub and people have been commenting that my face is looking darker than usual. I have now reverted back to the formula in the bottle.I hope it works to return my skin back to its original colour.

i switched from the formula in a bottle to the one in a tub. Nice smell and all, but i felt like my skin got darker. I'm an African American, anyone experienced this before?

This stuff is clearly wonderful and make my saggy and scared mummy tummy look better- However! The smell of it is awful and make me feel sick, I have just brought the unfragrant one And I can still smell the coco butter they've tried to hide! Anyone else?

I really like Palmers Cocoa Butter, and adore the smell;
I first discovered it by my freinds who were constantly in use of it
I always wondered where they got;
the smell is great,, I get it in any bottle as soon as one bottle
is nearly finished,, I buy it from BOOTS or SUPERDRUG.
I like everything about it, many people
complain about not being able to get it out of the bottle
but like any bottle that only happens
when it nearly finshed. If you really hate it when that happens
and would like to use it fully i would reccommend the jar of cocoa butter
I also think another great is the lip balm as it shares the qualities and great smell;
However for some who despise the smell I would recommend the fragrance
free body butter, which hs the same affects only no smell.
Over all its a value for money, smells nice and isnt sticky !

Allthougth the butter is an excellent product and worth every pence i have a huge problem with the packaging it is most difficult to dispense the butter because the packaging is so thick i can not squeeze the bottle as it doesnt give ....... on these grounds i can no longer purchase it , much to my regret.

just started using palmer's cocoa butter because I'm pregnant, don't know how effective it is but can't believe how many reviews claim that it smells great. The smell isn't pleasant like pure cocoa butter which smells somewhat like chocolate or toffee, instead it is more plastic or chemical or medicinal in scent. It also feels a bit heavy on the skin and even slightly sticky, kinda like a petroleum gel.

I have only used this product on my face so far,I have been using it religiously, a few times a day after washing my face for about a week now and my skin looks so much better, clearer and healthier, I looked in the mirror tonight and even with lack of sleep lately, my face is glowing! I'm about to start using it on some dry body areas (elbows etc.) and on some scars and stretchmarks.. It works wonders, found out about it on a forum as every moisturiser makes my face oily and shiny and people kept saying they swore by 'palmers cocoa butter' so i purchased some for roughly £3.50 for a big bottle and it's amazing, I don't think I will look back! Amazing product, amazing value!

Brilliant product! Love it!
I have dry skin and it does wonders, it really moistures those dry areas like knees and elbows. I have had marks on my skin, which have faded with the help of a body brush, a gentle scrub and this product.
It really is a must have, also it's a bargain.

Concerning good or bad smell: I think the olive butter smells quite good, a bit like aloe vera. The coconut butter smells and looks awful... By the way: it was on offer in my local drugstore. I bought mine on monday, there was equal stock of both. On friday I wanted to buy some more olive butter, but they were sold out, whereas there was plenty of coconut butter left...

I really like this product and use it quite often but use it more for the moisturising and the smell then for getting rid of stretch marks because it didnt seem to remove stretch marks for me. I read some of the reviews that it works better on pale people so maybe this is why its not worked that well for me. Love the smell though and works great as a moisturiser on its own even if you dont have stretch marks.

Smells gorgeous makes skin glow,,but don't be fooled in thinking it'l fade the scars & stretch mark,beware that if you have slighlty dark skin,it'll make your stretch marks lighter which is a good thing if your pale however it stands out more if your not.
Other than that I love the smell more than anything.

I adore Palmer's products,i have been using the body butter for years and still to this day recieve great comments on my skin,please try the new natural bronze lotion with builds up an even glowing tan,being a beauty therapist i swear by the full range of palmer's products..you don't have to buy really expensive products to feel and look great,always read the label as you'll find with expensive products you are paying for the packaging rather than the product itself. Palmer's ROCKS...x

Great, used Palmers Cocoa Butter before i got married gave me nice skin but i have to go back to it again now.

I have recently gone back to using Palmers cocoa butter lotion and I'm aggrieved that I ever stopped. It smoothes in so easily, smells gorgeous, and leaves my skin really soft.
I will be using it when I get pregnant too. I think it's a brilliant price and certainly should be a beauty staple.

I live by Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula, I used this when I was pregnant and did not get any stretch marks. I love the stuff and wouldnt be without it, better than any expensive moisteriser. Youve got to try it at least.

Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula smells lovely. I have a big scar on my leg from burning it with curlers, (don't ask) and it has faded dramatically after only 2 months of using the lotion.

Yes, I have as well....I was using the formula in the bottle, my skin looked great. I then begun using the formula in the tub and people have been commenting that my face is looking darker than usual.
I have now reverted back to the formula in the bottle.I hope it works to return my skin back to its original colour.
Please let me know what you decided to do about it, and whether your skin got back to normal.
