It's been 10 weeks since I started using Palmers Cocoa Butter . I have mentioned
in my first impression post of the butter on why exactly I started using this.
What company claims about Palmer’s Cocoa
Butter Formula Firming Lotion:
This
unique formula is specifically designed to recover loss of skin firmness due to
aging, pregnancy or fluctuations in weight. Oozing a lush chocolate
caramel fragrance, Palmer’s Cocoa Butter is a natural, non-greasy, intensive
formulation that comes packed with active ingredients like pure Cocoa and Shea
Butter to replenish moisture loss in the skin, Collagen to firm and tone,
Elastin to give your skin the suppleness and elasticity it needs to stretch
without tearing, Vitamin E for all over goodness and the newest antioxidant in
the market today – Coenzyme Q10 – to help free radicals and stimulate the
skin’s cell for achieving a more toned and smoother appearance.
Now let me quickly get
on to the review.
*Toning: Yes, it does tone. But the toning happens in conjunction
with the weight loss. One cannot sit like a rock and expects the butter to do
all the work.
*Firming: It does make the skin better. It has firmed the
skin better in the problem area but I do not think it will firm the sagging
skin completely.
*The massaging needs to be done after the application. Just slathering
the butter on the skin will moisturise it but does not help in toning and
firming.
*Massaging the butter is time consuming and needs patience
*The company says visible results within 6 weeks. The butter
is so thick that the bottle lasted me only 5 weeks, I am on my second bottle
now.
*Smells heavenly. Like dark roasted chocolate and lingers
for a very long time,
*The smell does soothe and calms the sense. I think because
it smells like Dark chocolate and we are women :D
*It's Paraben and Phthalate free.
*Easily available. It’s available online and I have seen
this in the Super markets as well. Not only the butter, other products as well.
*It costs 520INR for 315ml. I got my second bottle for
400INR. Keep an eye on the online offers.
*It makes the skin super soft. Moisturization lasts whole
day and skin looks healthy.
*No effect on the Cellulite.
*Hygienic packaging. The pump dispenser is effective in
controlling the product.
After I started using the butter, In the first 3 weeks I lost weight, so the toning part continued. In the next 2 weeks, I did not
loose any weight so no toning. Hence, proved
that the toning happens when one looses weight. Ha ha ha ha :)
Will I repurchase:
I am already on my 2nd bottle. But I am now applying this on thighs, tummy,
bust and arms. I am using other moisturiser for legs, hands as I have some limited edition
product which needs to be opened and used before they expire ....he he he. I will after that.
Will I recommend:
Yes, go grab this. This butter is
like a push from outside in your weight loss journey. If not for firming and
toning part try it for that heavenly chocolate smell and super soft skin. J
I am a gym rat. I do weight and cardio on alternative days. But, after a point, the skin just stops the
inch loss , it kinda gives up. It is only
due to this butter I have won in the
inch/cms loss department.
So, ladies go grab this.
Live life to the fullest
