Dry Skin Saviours with Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula

Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Body Lotion Swivel Stick Original Solid Jar

My skin has been in need of some major TLC ever since returning from my recent trip! I always seem to forget how dry my skin gets during and after travelling, in between the dry cabin air, quickly alternating between warm summer and cool fall temperatures from experiencing different climates, and my skin no longer being used to hard water. Thankfully, the most perfect care package from Palmer's* landed on my doorstep when I returned - talk about perfect timing! I've been a fan of the brand for years, having tried their Cocoa Butter Formula for both face and body, and most recently their Coconut Oil Formula, so I was super excited to dive back into their Cocoa Butter Formula line and try out an old favourite as well as a couple of new-to-me additions. Not only does this range contain pure and natural cocoa butter, but it is also packed with vitamins A, C and E and antioxidants to both prevent and soothe dry skin.

Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Body Lotion

An oldie but a goodie, the Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Body Lotion works wonders as an all-over body moisturizer. Of course, the first thing I have to point out is how delicious it smells, very sweet and invigorating. The pure cocoa butter formula is enriched with vitamin E for advanced relief or dry skin. The texture is creamy yet not overly thick, making it easy to spread out and quick-absorbing without leaving streaks or a greasy film behind. This drugstore classic has been a staple of mine for years, and it has been well-loved throughout the world for generations. If like me you are looking for an effective product to soothe rough and dry skin without breaking the bank, this one is a must!

Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Swivel Stick

The Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Swivel Stick has been a godsend as my feet have seen better days. This past summer the straps of a new pair of sandals I wore cut through the back of both of my heels and left some pretty nasty scars which have finally started fading, and I've started using this multi-purpose stick to speed things up. What I love is that it can also be used on chapped lips or any other area that needs extra care on both your face and body, such as blemishes, cuticles or stubborn dry patches. Not only that, but this stick is also travel-friendly (it's basically the portable version of the original solid formula - more on that below) and I am planning on packing this into my carry-on for my upcoming trip next month - it will be much needed on a 14-hour direct flight!

Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Original Solid Formula Jar

The Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Original Solid Formula packs a punch - it contains the highest concentration of cocoa butter of the lot, meaning it has rapidly become a must-have in my skincare arsenal. Dealing with cracked feet or hands, stretch marks or scars? This heavy-duty, all-in-one product might just be the what you've been needing all along. This body butter has a solid texture and melts on contact with your skin - I especially like using it on my elbows, knees and ankles, areas which in my case always need more attention. I like using this product at bedtime for it to work its magic overnight, and I wake up with crazy smooth, yummy-smelling skin!

Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula products can be purchased online at ca.palmers.com and at walmart.ca.
