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.

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 was sent this product to test/ review thanks to the amazing team at BR! This was my first time using a paw paw ointment and my first time trying a product by Sukin. Love the cute, simple packaging however it is rather difficult squeezing the product out (I think this may be due to the cold weather) and the ointment is very thick which can make it slightly difficult to apply. Although it's not the easiest product to use, it does what it said it would do. It is incredibly moisturizing, soothes the skin/ lips and is very hydrating. I have dry lips due to the cold Christchurch weather and a cut on the corner of my mouth which seems to be clearing up thanks to the ointment and I have also been using it on a couple of small dry patches on my face as it's incredibly moisturizing. I love that it has multiple uses and is a great product to keep in your handbag. Lovely packaging, great size tube, fresh scent and highly moisturizing!

Overall, it's a great product however I wish it were easier to squeeze out of the tube and it would be great if it were less thick in consistency so it would be easier to work into the skin. I will continue using but may try a different brand next time.

Tips: Keep somewhere warm (such as your bathroom) for easier application.

A better natural alternative

Firstly, thank you BR for the opportunity to trial this. I would never have picked it off the shelf as I would have assumed it has a petroleum base in it.

It comes in a nice peach coloured tube with a black screw top that is very easy to use - major downfall is that when it gets cold, it is very hard to squeeze the product out of the tube. I guess it would be a lot easier in summer though!.

If it wasn't for my above comment alongside the fact the ointment doesn't readily adsorb, I would absolutely give this product 5/5. It came very close thought. The application on my lips was very easy, but the backs of my hands was a bit harder as the ointment had to be rubbed in quite hard.

I used it on my lips and the backs of both hands - both super dry areas of my body. There was a vast improvement in the scaly looking skin on my hands - after about 30 minutes of applying, the skin in the area looked smoother and plumper and less crepey. I'm pretty much in love! My lips also stayed hydrated for a few hours.

I think this tube will last me at least a month, so at $9.99 it will be pretty economical.

I will more than likely buy this again due to it's natural properties and also because it doesn't really leave a scent or taste on your skin. I like that a lot!

Tips: Warm the product in the palm of your hand before squeezing out of the bottle. It'll make it so much easier over winter.

Sukin Paw Paw Ointment

Pretty impressed when the Sukin Paw Paw ointment tube when it arrived - I have use Pawpaw treatment in the past especially at the start of the winter season when the aircon heat gets turned up in the office and cause my lily white dry skin start flaking, especially leading to dry chapped lips.

I like the pawpaw coloured tube that easily fits in my clutch or and handbag, or even in my jeans pocket without having to carry around a bottles of moisturiser all the time. Also not all moisturisers works well on lips.

I found it a little hard to squeeze out but eventually got the hang of it and soon I had a new best friend that went every where with me the last week and a half.

Easy to apply and moisturises immediately on application and soothed my chapped red skin. I also used it on a few other dry spots on my arms when I did not have moisturiser with me in the office. It calmed down the itch, till I arrived home, and I do think it can be used as multi-purpose moisturiser.

Must be one of my most favourite treatments so far, and I will be rationing my way through the tube.

It states that its is made of a variety of natural ingredients, including fermented Pawpaw and has been know to have natural healing qualities. I like it and will continue using this product in future.

Tips: Take it with you - everywhere

Petroleum free Paw Paw!

I was first impressed to see this paw paw was petroleum free, the reason I have avoided paw paw in the past as I've deemed it to be an expensive version of Vaseline.

It comes in a cute little peachy coloured tube, a good size to throw in your handbag. I did find this product to be quite hard to squeeze from the tube. I thought 2 good places to trial this product would be my lips, and a small dry area of skin that had emerged on my face. Unfortunately, it did nothing on my dry skin, even after applying twice daily. It did keep my lips feeling moisturised, but no more than my current $4 lip balm. On that note - I will continue to use the tube I have now, but I dont think I would purchase this again.

Not the best lip product for me

I'm one of those rare people that had never tried any kind of Paw Paw ointment before, so I was unsure what to expect with this product. I had fairly high hopes that this would work wonders on my lips, as Paw Paw ointment is a cult favourite beauty product for many. When the product first arrived I had a difficult time getting it out of the tube, though I put that down to the parcel sitting outside in the freezing Hamilton weather. The positive to it being hard to get out of the tube, is that you're never likely to squeeze out too much product.

This ointment is very thick. On cold days, it can feel grainy when you first put it on your lips but it doesn't take long for it to melt to a smooth consistency. It feels sort of waxy yet oily at the same time. You only need to use a tiny amount at a time. I wasn't a huge fan of how it sat on my lips, as it felt quite heavy. I didn't feel like it was adding any hydration to my lips. It was like I had a barrier on my lips preventing any moisture from leaving, instead of adding moisture.

Since it's winter my lips are drier than usual. After using this product for nearly two weeks my lips are in a good condition. They feel smooth and I haven't had cracked lips. However they don't look as 'plump' as they usually do when I use products like Blistex. I can tell my lips look a little smaller, as my cupid's bow is flatter and not as defined as it usually is. I think my preference is lip products that have ingredients like peppermint/menthol that bring a cool feeling. This Paw Paw ointment doesn't give you any kind of feeling, so I don't think it's the ideal lip product for me.

If you are a fan of the classic Paw Paw ointment, I think you will be a fan of this product. However if you are used to products that give you a cooling sensation like Blistex, then you might not like this as much. I will keep this in my purse and continue to use it, but it won't be the only lip product I use.

Tips: When I dyed my hair, I used this product around my hairline and on my ears to stop the dye from staining my skin. It worked amazingly well!

Sukin Paw Paw Ointment

Having used the Lucas Paw Paw Ointment for many years I was really interested in trying the new face on the block. I use Paw Paw Ointment for dry lips, eczema and all things dry on my body, I am known to have a tube or two in my handbag.

The packaging of Sukin Paw Paw Ointment is really cute, I was really impressed with the pinky/peach tube. It was great that the product is sulphate and paraben free as well. I first opened the tube on a cold morning and found it nearly impossible to push any product out at all. I found this to be a real negative to be honest and put me off the product quite early on.

Once I finally managed to get some product out I found it had a subtle but not unpleasant scent. It smooths onto the skin reletivaely easily and is absorbed quite quickly into skin that is dry.

Overall the product certainly does what it claims but I found it to be no different to the Lucas Paw Paw (though I will say Sukin does have cuter packaging!).

I would only buy again if it was the cheaper of the two options.

Pretty in peach

I was really excited when I received Sukin's paw paw ointment to review. I have always been a fan of their skin care so was hoping this would be just as good as all their other products.

The first thing that appealed to me regarding this product was the cute packaging. It makes me think of summer and i feel 25 grams is a reasonable amount of product but still keeps it travel friendly.

The ointment is a thick consistency that clings to the area you apply it. I can happily drink a cup of tea and still feel the product on my lips. With other lip products they would disappear and I have been left wondering if they actually remained on my lips long enough to do any good.

I have tried a few other paw paw ointments over the years but stopped using them once I found out that they contained mostly petroleum jelly. Finding a similar product but without the questionable ingredients has made me very happy.

Since receiving this product I have used it everyday. My lips are nor normally overly dry and this product has helped them retain their moisture and I really like using it first thing in the morning to help condition and smooth my lips before putting on liquid lipsticks.

This past weekend my lips did end up getting a little wind burnt and while this is not a miracle product ( it's not going to return your lips to there former glory with one application) it has started to recondition my lips and t hey are already feeling better than they were.

I also get really dry and painful outer corners of my eyes at the time of year and I have used Sukin's paw paw ointment on the area at night times and in the morning the pain has gone.

I am looking forward to trying this ointment on the cracked skin I get on my hands every year too.

I will continue to use this product and test this product to see how it works for other situations.

Tips: If you are like me and find getting the product out of the tube a little difficult at times because its so thick I recommend holding he tube under running hot water for a minuet or two.

Big power, small price.

Having never used this product before I was excited to trial it. My kids have eczema and I often get patches as well. I decided to try it on both myself and my son. We both used a small amount on our eczema twice and day. Immediately my son said his eczema was not itchy anymore and I noticed that it didn't look as inflamed. The redness was gone within 2-3 days and his skin was soft and smooth. My dry patch disappeared after 3 days and I continued to use the pawpaw ointment for 4 more days to ensure it wouldn't come back - it hasn't. My son's eczema has improved 80% and he is still using the pawpaw ointment as he forgot to put it on, but the natural oils have made a difference to his skin and what was sore, red, cracked skin is no longer. I will be buying more of this product.
