Palmers cocoa butter & biotin length retention shampoo

Soften and soothe dry, rough skin with Palmer?s cocoa butter products. Palmer's cocoa butter oil infuses your body with essential lubricants that replenish moisture and freshen your skin without the grease. The formula is rich and absorbs quickly and safely with non-irritating convenience. Wear your favorite outfit, including the most delicate of fabrics, right after applying this consistently silky oil. Marvel at the versatility of the Palmer's cocoa butter stick. This multi-purpose, large-sized balm is a swivel stick used to address chapped lips, dry skin, stretch marks, scars, sunburns, and blemishes.

Hydrating your skin

Palmer?s skin care products are enriched with vitamin E for anti-aging benefits and anti-oxidant protection from ultra-violet rays, free radicals and pollution. The products are sulfate-free, paraben-free and are not tested on animals. The massaging body cream is an ideal choice for daily use and after shaving. Smooth on Palmer?s lotion any time to help your skin retain moisture and natural elasticity. The exclusive formulation of cocoa butter, shea butter, vitamin E, collagen and elastin in this lotion nourishes your skin to meet the challenges of dry, desert weather or healing after an injury.

But besides the easy-to-use formula, what I love most about this is how soft it makes my skin feel. And it's not just softness — it's deeply-penetrating moisture that lasts. When I use regular shea butter, for example, to moisturize in the a.m., by the end of the day, my skin is dry again. Parched, even. Thirstier than a manosphere podcaster looking for clout. But when I switch back to my tried-and-true Palmer's, my skin still feels really supple and hydrated, even at bedtime.

Now, this product isn't for everyone. It is so deeply moisturizing, that when you first put it on your skin, it can feel greasy before it absorbs. It's a sacrifice I'm willing to make for skin that feels great all day. Nothing can compare to the buttery softness it leaves me with. If you don't like that greasy feeling, even if it lasts a few minutes as it settles, you probably won't be into using this all over your body. You may, however, prefer to use it on smaller areas that tend to dry out like your elbows, knees, and heels.

So why does this stuff work so well? "The cocoa butter, oils, and other emollients help to soften and smooth the surface of the skin," says Dobos. "There's a synergistic effect when combined with wax and dimethicone that help form an occlusive barrier to water loss." It is worth noting, though, that the formula does contain mineral oil. There has been a lot of controversy around the ingredient and whether or not it's "good" for your skin. 

Mineral oil helps create a barrier on your skin that locks in moisture, which, as Wilson notes, is part of the reason why this product is so long-lasting. Mineral oil can be comedogenic, but it isn't always. The fact is it does have some major benefits, too, so much so, that Dobos admits she's actually a fan of the ingredient. 

"Unlike natural oils which can oxidize and turn rancid, resulting in the formation of irritating compounds and unpleasant odors, mineral oil is incredibly safe and stable," says Dobos. "In fact, baby oil is primarily composed of mineral oil because of its excellent ability to seal in moisture in fragile infant skin." Of course, if you have concerns, talk to your dermatologist first. As for me, I've been using this stuff for several decades and haven't had any issues.
