Yes it is. Shea Butter is a gentle, yet effective moisturizer that contains anti-inflammatory properties and is also naturally packed with Vitamins A, E & F. It is widely recommended for sensitive skin.

Yes. It is perfectly normal for the jar to have a slightly uneven texture due to the properties of the raw Shea Butter. These small particles melt upon contact with the skin.

Palmer's Shea Butter Formula collection of products has a rich amber and vanilla scent.

No, they are not the same. While the lotion, which is available with a pump dispenser is quite rich, the tube is a cream formulation and is more concentrated. The jar, the most concentrated formula, is a solid which softens upon contact with the skin.

Shea Butter is a natural moisturizer which is derived from the fruit of the Shea (Karite) Tree.

Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Stretch products work best when used at the beginning of pregnancy or before any significant weight change where the skin might be stretched. You can expect that the Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula stretch line of products will help skin's moisture content and elasticity, improving the appearance of stretch marks. Skin tone and texture will look more even and your stretch marks will appear softened.

Palmer's and its palm oil suppliers are members of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil.

We are committed to responsible and sustainable palm production. Sustainable means a commitment to safeguarding the environment; protecting native animal species, such as orangutans and tigers; providing a safe and healthy work environment for their employees; respecting local land rights and helping to develop local communities.

While we use a variety of scents in our different Cocoa Butter Formula products, as well as offer some non-scented alternatives, Palmer's core Cocoa Butter collection has an iconic warm chocolate scent with hints of vanilla.

Palmer's rigorously tests all of our products for sensitivity with an independent clinical testing facility which supports our dermatologist approved claims. For an array of products that are marked as suitable for eczema prone skin" on pack, we conduct further testing recruiting subjects with severe skin sensitivity and eczema-prone skin to validate that these formulas are suitable for this skin type and are gentle/kind to skin.

Here are the step that we suggest to use the Original Solid Jar as a stick: 1: Tighten the lid on the jar. 2: Squeeze the sides of the Jar to help loosen the product if it is stuck to the sides of the jar. 3: Turn the Jar upside down and tap the lid on a hard surface like a countertop or table. You should now be able to open the Jar with the product on the lid.

No way! Cocoa Butter is a great ingredient in hair care, lip care, body and even face! The rich emollients and antioxidants in cocoa butter make it one of nature's most superior moisturizers. Because its so rich and thick, some might find it to be too heavy for their skin type, so we always recommend if using on an area such as your face to test a small inconspicuous area first.

Much like Cocoa Butter, Coconut Oil is a natural lipid that not only nourishes skin but helps create a protective barrier from damage. Rich in antioxidants and medium chain fatty acids, Coconut Oil deeply hydrates and has antimicrobial properties.

While there are slight variations depending on the product, most of our Coconut Oil Formula collection products have a scent of summer with creamy coconut and sweet almond or a tropical blend of fresh coconut water and island fruit.
