Q: Is this safe to use around the eyes as an oil cleanser/makeup remover? I know Palmers has a facial cleansing oil but something in it irritated my skin so I want to try this instead.

submitted by Bee D - 5 years ago
  • A: Dear Bee, thank you for your question. Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Moisturizing Body Oil was made to be used on the body, not your face. We suggest you follow the directions on the bottle and consult a physician before using any body product on your face and especially near the eyes.

Q: Is this product Gluten free? I know some vitamin e can contain gluten. Just want to be on the safe side!

submitted by LFH - 5 months ago

submitted by Question - 8 months ago
  • A: The Cocoa Butter Formula Moisturizing Body Oil does not contain Coconut Oil. Palmer’s prides itself on using many natural ingredients in high concentrations in our formulations. To maintain stability and efficacy we sometimes have to blend these natural ingredients with synthetically sourced ingredients such as preservatives. If you have any specific ingredient questions on sourcing or function, please contact our Consumer Relations team at info@palmers.com or 1-877-PALMERS, and they will be happy to assist.

Q: How does this oil compare to the Palmers skin therapy oil?

submitted by teagirl - 1 year ago
  • A: Great question! The Skin Therapy Oil is dry oil and helps improve the appearance of skin imperfections like scars, stretch marks and damaged skin. The Moisturizing Body Oil provides long-lasting moisture to deeply hydrate dry skin, leaving it softer, smoother and glowing.

Q: Can this be used on the face and mixed with essential oils? (Rosehips Seed Oil)

submitted by Godiva - 3 years ago
  • A: Dear Godiva, thank you for your question. Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Moisturizing Body Oil was created to be used on your body. It isn't a facial oil, and since we haven't tested this product with essential oils mixed in, we cannot guarantee the results. Please consider using one of Palmer's facial oils for your face: Cocoa Butter Formula Skin Therapy Oil Face or our Cocoa Butter Formula Eventone Tone Correcting Facial Oil.

Q: What's the difference between Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula Moisturizing Body Oil and Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Skin Therapy Oil? I'm confused as to which one is better as a post-shower body oil for dry skin.

submitted by trisha - 4 years ago

Q: Is this a thick oil or more like the Neutrogena sesame oil?

submitted by Casegal - 5 years ago
  • A: Dear Casegal, thank you for your question. While we can't speak on Neutrogena, since it's not our brand, we can tell you Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Moisturizing Body oil is a vitamin E enriched, light weight, silky textured oil that is perfect for dry, damaged skin. It's especially useful if your skin is parched due to overexposure to the sun.

    The scent is phenomenal, of course, but I really love the benefits of the oil. I hop out of the shower & drench myself in this oil while wet, then follow up with the Palmer's Cocoa Butter Heals & Softens intensive body lotion. My skin is insanely dry without this stuff & I'm so thankful to have found it!

    Was excited to try this after reading all the positive reviews but it’s leaves a greasy film on skin forever. Taken two showers (one with Dawn dish soap) and still hasn’t completely come off. Would not recommend.

    Palmer products are wonderful for our skin. And I forgot about body oils for many decades. A friend I was visiting had it at her house. I gave it a try. And I love it! My boys are using it too for their dry skin and my youngest has eczema. It’s light, smells amazing and absorbs rapidly into your skin upon application. I apply it right after I get out of the shower and it doesn’t leave a greasy residue.

    First time trying this and I have to say that it’s so much better than lotion! It doesn’t leave that sticky feeling that lotions and creams usually leave. I used a little on my hands where I have the most dryness and it worked instantly whereas when I use lotion, I’d have to massage it into my skin multiple times. This will definitely be my go to!

    I love this oil and will continue to purchase it as long as it's made. I use it after I apply lotion to seal the moisture into my skin, and it makes such a big difference in keeping my skin hydrated and soft. It has a subtle, comforting scent from the cocoa oil which fades away as it absorbs (which I prefer -- i dont like products with heavy or long-lasting fragrances). I especially love how affordable it is for the size.

    This body oil feels great! Not too oily; doesn't completely fall off my hands before I can rub it onto my legs. Left my skin feel very soft and hydrated. The only downside is the smell. I didn't care for the smell and I could smell it on me all day--it really lingers.
