Great weather shield against dryness

I was sent this from Beauty Review to trial (Thank you Beauty Review). The Sukin Pawpaw ointment is the first product I have tried from this brand and I was excited to see how this ointment was comparing it to other pawpaw products on the market.

It comes in a small 25g tube and since trialing this I've already used up half in a matter of 2 weeks. The lid is very secure saving it from it being accidentally opened in your handbag. I find it hard to get the product out of the tube because of its thick consistency and the colder days. Letting the tube warm up in my hand before squeezing out the product has helped get the ointment out easier and better to rub into my skin.

Ive been using this on my lips, elbows and ankles. When using this on my lips it keeps them soft and smooth for hours, in the colder days my lips get chapped a lot quicker compared to summer days. I've been using this on the edges around my sons nose because his nose gets dry and sore from blowing it on a daily basis. My elbows and knees are no longer dry and since I've been using it regularly to combat the dryness I dont have to apply it as often as I normally do.

I will purchase this product in the near future.

Tips: Warm the tube in your hands to make the product come out easier.

Sukin Paw Paw Ointment

I'm a big fan of paw paw ointment and have used them in the past. This one is great as it's got a lot of natural products compared to some of the other brands. It's very thick and it hard to get out of the tube but it is fragrance free, I really like that about products. I tried it on my red finger which was swollen around the cuticle area. It offered some relief, the redness and itchiness has been reduced. I've also tried in on some eczema which came up on my arm and it worked well. I will definitely be trying this ointment out on chapped lips, sun burns, sea lice rash and insect bites but didn't have a chance in the review period. I would buy this paw paw ointment and am pleased it's easy to buy in the supermarket at an excellent price.

Tips: It comes in a handy size tube that you can keep in your hand bag.

Sukin Paw Paw Ointment

Packaging is aesthetically appealing, great size for handbag or toiletry bag. Easy screw cap and feels secure enough to chuck into your bag and not worry about it.

Loving that it is sulphate and paraben free! I am a huge paw paw ointment user on my dry lips and it feels reassuring knowing this product is safe to use.

The ointment itself though is very thick, and in the cooler weather really hard to get out of the tube. So for me wanting to use it regularly on my lips it is less appealing. It also has a displeasing taste.

However, I can see it's merit for abrasions, insect bites et al. I did not get to put this product to the test as had none during the trial period but I am hopeful it would be soothing.

I did trial it on elbows, knees and feet and it certainly did soften and moisturise this area, although it felt quite thick and required some rubbing in. But worth the perseverance if these were a trouble area!

Overall a great product for use as a barrier cream or moisturising problem areas, but it just didn't satisfy my main use of paw paw ointments for dry lips being so thick and with an odd after taste.

Price point seems comparable to other brands found in supermarkets.

Tips: Perhaps try to keep in as warm a location as possible for more easy removal from tube and application.

He Said She Said

I was excited to try this for both my husband and I. He suffers from terrible itchy red fingers. He tried it twice but unfortunately it felt worse and he wasn't prepared to persevere. My problem was really dry cracked heels. Ok miniature elephant feet! They had got worse of late as I love to walk barefoot everywhere. Huge cracks and very sore to walk on. After only TWO nights the pain had gone and the cracks were shrinking quite rapidly. Visible results every morning when I woke up. I am excited to use this as a multi-purpose cream and think it will get a lot of use.

Tips: Great compact tube to carry around in handbag to use on the run.

A Lovely, Multi-Purpose Product

I've use paw paw ointment products in the past and have always found them to work wonders for a whole range of problems! I was super excited to try the Sukin Paw Paw Ointment to see how it compared.

Super cute packaging to start off with — love the adorable pink design! I found the packaging to also be very practical, and it was easy to disperse the perfect amount of product every time. When it's cold the product can be a little more stubborn coming out of the tube, however. No biggie though.

The ointment itself is very similar to other ointments on the market — thick, slightly clear. Has a subtle but not unpleasant scent. It smooths onto the skin easily and is absorbed rapidly by dry skin.

I really wanted to test this product out on things like insect bites, chafing, etc, but I didn't experience anything along those lines while trialling this product! Instead I used it mainly on my lips and my dry elbows, and it seemed to work really well in those areas, instantly nourishing the skin and helping it stay nourished throughout the day.

Would recommend as a cute wee handbag item for unexpected dry lips, skin, bites, chafing, etc. Super handy and lovely to use!

Long Lasting Moisture

I have used different brands if paw paw ointment previously, and this one was vastly different. I found the consistency to be a lot thicker than previous experiences. This made it great for using on my lips. It not only combated my dry lips, it also lasted so much longer than general balms. Even after drinking several times, Sukin Paw Paw Ointment stayed on. I was so impressed by this. I had an itchy bite that was driving me crazy, but after I put a little Sukin Paw Paw Ointment on, the itching was relieved. The ointment on skin forms a barrier that helps to relieve and protect bites and so forth. Over all I really liked the Sukin Paw Paw Ointment experience, and will definitely be using this product again.

Tips: Applying Sukin Paw Paw Ointment onto lips helps to moisturise and protect lips for long periods of time. I found that adding a little of the product over top of my standard lipstick or gloss helped the colour to last longer and stay in place better.

Petroleum, Petrochemical, Paraben free Paw Paw

If you want natural pawpaw ointment then here's the answer.... On first opening the tube I couldn't squeeze anything out, it was so incredibly thick. It also had no smell, I was expecting a lovely tropical pawpaw smell with jelly consistency. I have dry patches on my forehead and chin and they instantly cleared up. After a few days even better, they haven't returned. I tried it on my lips as they're quite dry but I didn't like the feel of it, kind of like a thick barrier coating, it cleared away the chaffing but left my lips with a dry but smooth feeling. I am pregnant so I would likr to try it on my baby as a barrier cream as its natural. If only I could squeeze it out if the tube!! And a lovely paw paw scent would've been nice.. Its also a good price about the same as its more unnatural competitors.

Tips: This is a good natural alternative as I wanted to try the Lucas pawpaw because it was so popular and sounded so good, i was surprised it had petroleum base in it. Even though its pharmaceutical grade petroleum base I will Not put anything unnatural on my skin, petroleum is a petrol derivative from crude oil often known as mineral oil. Avoid unnatural Products like these with hidden ingredients at all costs non matter how deceptive these companies are, do your research, its your body. Would you put car oil on your skin? Even though its pharmacy grade its still unnatural and not safe in the long term no matter what they say

Balmy moisturiser

Firstly the packaging is so nice! It's very pretty and the screw top lid is easy to use. The product itself is so thick though that it takes so much effort to squeeze out and it's hard to control the exact amount. I was squeezing so hard I thought I'd pop the tube! It's unscented and is a white-ish balm. It's very thick and you need quite a bit of warmth to melt it so that it will glide easily over skin.

Whilst not the easiest product to use, it definitely does what it said it'd do. It is incredibly moisturising and lasts for ages until it gets rubbed off by food or drink. It's worked really well for my lips these couple of weeks where the weathers quite cool and my lips have been quite dry. It acts as a salve. I also find that it works for dry skin and cuticles too - but is often a bit too greasy for everyday use. I haven't used it long enough to comment on it's effect on skin texture. Using it on the ends of my hair also makes it look shinier and healthier.

Overall, I quite enjoy the actual product itself, but I'm just not a fan of how thick it is! Every time I squeeze it, it just takes too much effort and I wouldn't repurchase.

Tips: Use it on lips, dry skin, cuticles and hair ends! The tiniest bit goes a long way!

Sucking paw paw ointment

Firstly thanks beauty review for choosing me as one of the lucky candidates to trial this product. It is a gorgeous looking tube with beautiful peach colour packaging ( very appealing ) also a perfect size for the handbag or glovebox of car. I love the fact that this product doesn't contain petroleum like other paw paw ointment does. I am very health conscious so a huge tick from me there. It's also got No sulphates, No synthetic fragrances, No animal derivatives, No harsh detergents, No propylene glycol, No artificial colours, No triethanolamine, No mineral oils, No EDTA and no parabens. So it's all natural yay!

I tried this on a cut on my nose but didn't have any effect at all but to be fair I went to the doctor and it required an antibiotic ointment. This felt amazing on my lips though, it aslo felt good that I wasn't putting anything toxic on my lips . Will be my best friend if I happen to get dry cracked lips from a cold or flu and the elements outside. I think it's a reasonable price for the tube size but my only concern is the fact that it's so hard to squeeze the product out of the tube. Maybe the contents is a little thick or the hole is too small. Over all I like this product.

I like it, but I'm not in Love with it

I was really excited to try this product for a few reasons. One, I always borrowed paw paw off my friends and in small doses I really liked the effects. Two, this product has no baddies and is filled with great natural ingredients. Three, I had been sick for a few weeks and my lips were in dire need of hydration and care and I was excited to see how this paw paw could benefit me.

The packaging is simple but cute. The colour is a vibrant coral peach, a great colour that stands out amongst the troves of things in my handbag - so it's easy to identify and whip out. It says on it that it has no bad things, further promoting that image of a natural product. It also says that it can combat dryness etc, so decided I would not only use this on my lips but my hands as well.

I must say it is very hard to squeeze out of the container, as I mentioned before I would usually just use my friends one - so maybe she had warmed it with her hand? When I finally squeezed some out I noticed it smelt faintly like soap, it wasn't overly like papaya but more like vaseline. The consistency is similar to other paw paw products I have tried. It instantly provided hydrated and moisture to my sore and dry lips. It also had a nice shine to it, making my lips look great! The effects of using this product over the last week have been very positive but not life changing. It did help my lips recover, and I had to use it less frequently than I would other lip balms. On my hands it felt a little greasy until it settled into my skin, but then made my hands soft and a little shiny.

Overall I liked this product, and would potentially purchase again, but I wasn't so blown away that I feel as though I need to tell everyone about it.

Tips: Warm the tube with your hands as it is very hard to squeeze out otherwise.
