Sukin Paw Paw Ointment Reviews

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.

I received the Sukin Paw Paw ointment without any packaging (assuming this is how it is purchased from a store). The little tube is a nice colour and it has the Sukin brand name with the wee leaf at the top and easy to see. Most of the writing on the tube is almost impossible to read though, ok my eyes are getting a bit "tired" but I'm sure most people would have issues reading it.

The tube is a good size and it can be thrown in your handbag so nice and handy to take with you. I do have quite dry lips and a patch of dry skin on the top of one of my feet so thought I would use it on those areas. The ointment is very thick and takes a bit of squeezing to get it out of the tube but you only need a little bit. It smells nice and natural, sort of wheaty is how I would describe it and I liked it - no stinky perfumes etc so you know it's nice and natural.

I used the ointment on my lips and foot for over a week and think it has made a little difference but nothing to really write home about. I will keep using it however as I do like it and knowing it's not fully of harsh chemicals etc makes a difference.

I would be happy to use this on my 4 year old daughter also and will try on her at some stage when she needs it for any chaffing etc.

Overall I do like the product, not quite sure if it was totally effective on my dryness however being natural is a huge plus for me so I would probably buy it again and have it in my handbag.

This is a good product, it just didn't WOW me.

I love the pink tube it comes in, it's pretty compact for the amount of product you get and it's designed well so that only a little comes out of the tube at a time (you have a put quite a bit of pressure on the tube to get it out- this is good though cause you don't need much).

The smallest bit is enough for my lips and it does feel really nourishing once it is on. The feeling does stay there for quite some time however once it is worn off (from eating or drinking etc) I haven't noticed my lips feeling particularly different.

I get quite bad eczema on my hands and used it on little patches there too. This was a nice soother in the moment, but again I haven't really noticed any long(er) term results.

It's really nice and moisturizing, and I will continue to use it. Not sure if I would repurchase, would probably be keen to try something similar first.

Normally I am a huge fan of Sukin products. I have their face washes, creams and lotions galore! So when this came along I naturally jumped at the chance to try it out.

The tube: is a pretty peach colour and fairly sturdy. It's hard to squeeze the product out and initially thought I was staring at another film of product.

The product it's self: Is white and thick. It has a nice texture to it. But that's where my liking of the product stopped. I felt it did nothing to hydrate my lips or calm the sever chapping I had since coming back to the country. (Windy NZ winters!)

I've palmed this off to my partner who is happily using the product (I spent $9.99..i'm cheap it's not going to waste!).

Earlier in the year Best Beauty Boxes had a gamble box. In my gamble box was this Pawpaw ointment. Admittedly I have never used Pawpaw ointment before. I was stoked to give it a try.

Packaging wise I enjoy this peachy coloured tube. The formula reminds me of a firm petroleum jelly. It looks clear. There's a very mild sweet scent that's fruity.

During winter my nose got a hammering from using tissues and is pretty dry. I find this product warms well when massaged in between fingertips. I used this ointment on my dry nose and well as my lips.

After using it for a good month I noticed the hydration on my nose had returned. My lips were nice and soft too.

I'd love to try more Pawpaw ointments to compare to this one. I did enjoy using it. I could see myself repurchasing it in the near future.

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.

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.

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.

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'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!
