Sukin Paw Paw Ointment Reviews

I got my hands on the Sukin paw paw ointment from my local health shop for $9.99. I use this mainly to hydrate my lips, elbows and for grazes and abrasions for my daughter.

It is different to paw paw ointments I have previously used. It is thicker in texture which means it is great at hydration, and has a slight scent that I can't quite place, almost waxy. It is a very light scent though. It is very smooth when it melts on your skin/lips and stays there for a good while.

The price point is fair I think for the amount of product you get, and being that it is sulphate and paraben free is also a bonus.

I really like the packaging it is an apricot orange colour which is easy to find in my handbag or at home in the medical cabinet. It has a black screw top and squeeze tube which makes it easy to travel with and get the perfect amount of product out.

I got this Paw Paw ointment as part of the Nudes 2 box. I love the little tube it comes in - smooth, peach and a great size to keep in your purse. Getting the ointment out of the tube was a bit of a struggle though, as it is quite thick. I found that I had more luck squeezing the spout end of the tube, whereas if I squeeze the middle of the tube the ointment doesn't budge. However, the ointment being thick is also a good thing: once warmed it thins out so a little goes a long way, meaning there's more product to be used.

I've mostly been using the ointment on my lips and on dried/cracked spots on my hands. I have dermatitis so my hands can get quite sore and/or itchy, especially during winter. I'm happy to say that this paw paw ointment created a nice protective layer over the sores, hydrated my skin and helped with healing. The product doesn't have any smell and taste, which I think makes it more gentle on cuts etc than other moisturisers.

Overall very happy that I have this.

Now on the road to recovery from a cold that obviously has shares in Kleenex, this was my go to product for nasal and lip skin care.

The tube itself is a very handy size, easy to throw in a handbag or pocket. It doesn't come out easily, you have to apply decent pressure, which is a good thing, very hard to get too much product and have it go to waste.

I couldn't smell any scent, but them my nose was not in it's optimal use.

Applying under my nose was easy, it is clear and applies easily. Immediately soothing and didn't wipe away with the next tissue. Also relieved my dry lips, simply and effectively.

This is a product I will recommend to others and repurchase.

I'm always looking for/trying new products for my dry cracked lips. I received this in the last beauty gamble box.

The tube is a funky orange/peachy colour and is a descent size but still small enough for putting in a handbag.

There is no real scent to it, it just smells natural which would be why it needs to be used within 6months of opening. I personally like that it has no real scent to it.

I have so far only used this on my lips even though it is multi-purpose. The formula is very thick and does take a bit of squeezing to get out of the tube. I have to rub it into my finger tips to warm it before I apply it. I think for this reason I would only use it on my lips. It definitely has helps with hydration/smoothness and give my lips a nice natural shine.

Its not very often I use a product that helps relieve and prevent cracks/dry lips, if I use regularly (a few times a day) so I will keep using this for the foreseeable future.

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!).

I got this product from the BR vault and was keen to try it, as other people seem to like it. I've tried other Sukin products and find them good but not great - noting that they are very gentle and probably a good line of products for people with sensitive skin, and maybe not so effective for women like me who have dry skin.

The Paw Paw ointment comes in a gorgeous pink tube with a screw top. The product squeezes out easily.

The product itself looks a little like vaseline, tastes a little like vaseline, and works as well as vaseline. Though is thicker than vaseline. Disappointing really. I've been using it for over a week on my lips and on a dry patch of skin I have on my cheek. It hasn't helped either. It's a shame because I really really, wanted it to work!

Sadly, I wouldn't buy it, and I don't know who I could recommend it to.

I was lucky to pick this up in the Beauty Vault. I had wanted to try it for ages after seeing it featured in an article. When it arrived I was stunned at seeing how small the tube was. However the packaging is very pretty and appeals to me. A peachy colour squeezy tube with a black screw top.

The product is clear and very thick. It does not have much of a scent at all. When I first went to use it I had so much trouble squeezing it out. I applied so much pressure that it went pop and a big wad shot out on the floor lol. Not a good start. I feel that it needs to be warmed up slightly which I did by simply holding it tightly in my hands. It made it much easier to squeeze out thankfully.

I tried using it on a few cracks I had on my hands. It feels very tacky and is too thick for my liking. Next I used it on my lips which was ok but it feels far too heavy for me. I much prefer a lipbalm.

Unfortunately this was a huge let down for me so I would not use it again.

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.

I recieved this product in the Nudes 2 box. I have espoused the benefits of paw paw for years But stopped using the more well known brands as they actually contained a percentage of petroleum...and that stuff is just gross. I trust Sukin and really like this product. It does notno have very much slip but that is dur to the natural ingredients. I use it on everything...scratched, burns, sore nose, lips...everywhere! Its great, its a handy travel sized product and its like having first aid in a tube!

My dermatologist recommended Lucas' pawpaw for my dry lips and I was thrilled to find Sukin had an alternative that was cheaper, had much nicer packaging, and didn't contain petroleum jelly!

I've found it incredibly soothing and moisturising, the texture is really lovely, and I'll absolutely be purchasing it again. It's also been wonderful as an overnight balm on dry patches of skin or around my nose when I had a terrible cold.

It is fairly sticky like other pawpaw ointments, so definitely wouldn't recommend wearing it with your hair down on a windy day, but otherwise highly recommend it!
