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.
It's just as good as Lucas' paw paw. Infact I thought they were the same brand, just different packaging; which is why Ive tried each one. I would recommend either paw paw ointment though, they are both great. I keep a tube of this in my first aid kit. Its great for grazes, insect bites and much more!
I accidentally bought this once thinking that is was the same as the Lucas's one. To be honest it took me awhile to realise as they are very much the same. Both are definitely recommended and I always have one on me as I use it as my lip balm, keeps them soft and hydrated!
Tips: avoid squirting out too much.
Brilliant stuff!!!! not only is it moisturising on the lips but it also prevents any cracking and flakiness.
Tips: You can also use it for insect bites!!! Works a treat
Paw paw ointment is so useful for everything, not just as lip balm. It has a thick, smooth texture to it and you can easily put excess back in the tube if you squeeze too much out. The twist cap has a very firm cap and being bright red helps to find it in your handbag :)
Its really good on my eczema in emergencies and its handy with boils and such
This Coco Island paw paw ointment is awesome I think everyone should have this in their house or handbag. It is used for literally anything from cracked lips to nappy rash, wind burn, on a open minor scratch, Itchy skin, the list goes on this is an awesome product and it is affordable :)
After having a couple of quite large pieces added to my collection of tattoos, and having always used specialised expensive tattoo cream, my tattooist told me to use pawpaw cream, for all the obvious benefits. I chose this one, a for the price and b because I like most things with beeswax in it. After applying liberally every evening before sleep my tattoos were healed within a week, no itching, no large scabbing, very happy :)
I absolutely love this ointment over any other ointment especially for lips I prefer this over any other lip balm it does the trick straight away of soothing sore cracked lips but also does the trick on most things like insect bites wounds cuts and grazes and to be honest I think that it smells nice too (:
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
