Very useful product. I use this on dry patches and as a lip balm/conditioner and it is great. It is very moisturising can be a little sticky but you just have to rub it in really well. It is also very affordable, being cheaper than other brands and no less effective.

Reviews
I came across this product a couple years back in Sydney and bought it mistaking it for the Lucas's Paw Paw ointment (which I absolutely loved and used all the time and didn't have with me). Only after returning back to Auckland did I realise I had bought a dupe. In saying that - this product is a bit less pricey but it still works the same and does wonders from my dry, chapped lips. It's also a great multi-purpose ointment - so you can use it on burns and bites too. Great item to carry around in your handbag which you will undoubtedly love and make good use off.
i LOVE pawpaw ointment. iv got tubes at home, at work and in my handbag - such a great product for all kinds of uses. I find if i use it as a lip gloss, im left with super soft, shiny lips. also great for nappy rash - i used this with my daughter & it was magic! i had no problems at all with any rash
this is an amazing product u can just about use on anything from cracked lips to nappy rash. Ive got one in my room first aide kit car. even my 7 yr. old daughters keeps one in her school bag for mosquito bite grazes dermatitis any little thing you can think about. this is a must have product in every household
Tips: a little bit goes a long way
I love using this, the highlight of my day because it makes my lips feel sooo good. The smell of this isn't my favourite but it is ok since I love the product, I also use as mosquito bite cream as I am allergic to mosquito bites and it is awesome!
So I have a mixed review on this, I love papaw ointment in general and this particular brand seems to do as good a job as the Lucas brand BUT I am not sure if my tube is faulty. Mine was not a smooth texture but had some grainy bits thru out the whole tube. Made it very unpleasant especially due to what I needed it for. I had a misadventure with a teeth whitening product and it had come into contact with the inner part of my lips, even causing a blister in one spot! So it's been a touch painful! I started off just applying lip balm then remembered I had 2 new tubes of papaw ointment. I thought I'd try this brand as I received it for Xmas, so it was still sealed, it made a huge difference but the grainy bits hurt on the raw skin of my lips, so I opened the Lucas brand which is smooth and while doing the same job is more pleasant. Since using the papaw ointment my lips are healing super quick. I'd be interesting in knowing if anyone else has grainy bits in their tube!
I use this for my lips because they get quite cracked and dry. Its amazing and I would definitely recommend it. Its always in my bag or on my draw so I have easy access to it.
I found this to have a fantastic result on my dry skin problem areas (my feet, lips, face) and reduced the flakiness issue I was having. Due to other changes to help my issues I use this product less often, but when I do still has the same fantastic result. When you apply it will take a few minutes to soak into your skin, it is slightly oily however that only seems to be a plus at helping with this products effectiveness at moisturising a problem area and giving you your soft skin back quickly. I’ve also found it has helped greatly when I get a patch of dry aggravated flaky skin. Within two days I find the area of flaky skin gone and almost healed I like to use this one on my dry heels as I'm not terribly fond of the smell of peppermint and find it a good alternative to other foot ointments with a similar effectiveness. It is a bit pricey for a small tube of it but it spreads very well and ends up being good value for money for how far it will go for you and its end result
Tips: Clean your skin first, a little goes along way with this stuff, yes it is a little greasy but sill soak in well and work wonders. Use this for problem areas to help keep the dry flaky skin gremlins at bay
I have just finished my first tube of this one after my Lucas pawpaw ointment ran out and I was looking for a cheaper alternative. I got this on sale at the warehouse because I wasnt sure it would be as good as the other pawpaw ointments I had tried but is amazing. I usually have one of these in my handbag and one in my pencil case at tech for dry lip emergencies. I will definitely be buying more of these in the future.
Tips: Try to keep cool as it will become runny and soft if it gets too warm, but can be easily set again by placing in fridge.
Mosquito bites? itchy? bleeding from accidental cuts? Dry skin? This works wonders and you can do so many things with it. I would really recommend this, especially since over the summer, mosquitos get so frustrating and gross, they just love biting you. You cant help but scratch, not a worry, apply lucas pawpaw :) This stuff is the shizz!
Tips: Apply as lip balm if you've ran out :)
