Unexpected Beauty Uses For Paw Paw Treatment

Paw paw ointment is a lip care staple. In fact, you could even claim it’s a cult product. Almost every single lady has a tube stashed in her handbag, and possibly one in her bathroom and on her bedside table, too.

But did you know this hydrating salve isn’t just useful as a lip balm? We recently discovered that Natralus Paw Paw Ointment can be used in 10 different ways, giving us many more reasons to love this go-to beauty product.

10 DIFFERENT WAYS TO USE NATRALUS NATURAL PAW PAW OINTMENT

#1: as a lip primer

Apply the Paw Paw Ointment under your lipstick to create a smooth, moisturised base - it’ll help make your lipstick stay-put instead of bleeding or drying into a wrinkly finish.

#2: as a lip gloss

Dab a little Paw Paw Ointment over the top of lipstick to add a pretty, moisturising sheen.

#3: as an eyeshadow primer

Wipe a small amount onto your eye area before applying eyeshadow to help extend its wear time and allow for easy colour blending.

#4: as a hair styling product

Rub a teeny tiny amount between your palms and run your hands through your hair to help tame frizz, define your hairstyle, hydrate your ends and help prevent split ends.

#5: as a brow styler

Using a spoolie (the mascara-like brush on the end of a brow pencil), brush a little Paw Paw Ointment onto your brows to help define your arches and keep stray hairs in place.

#6: as a cuticle cream

Massage a little Paw Paw Ointment into your cuticles each evening before you go to bed for healthier, stronger nails and cuticles.

#7: as a face mask for dry skin

Apply to a light layer to cleansed and toned skin, and leave on overnight. Come morning, the Paw Paw Ointment will have penetrated your skin and you’ll have a smooth, hydrated complexion.

#8: as an all-over skin moisturiser

Paw Paw Ointment is sensational at soothing and healing dry or irritated skin anywhere on the body. This includes dry elbows, cracked heels, and red or itchy skin caused by rashes, eczema, psoriasis or other skin conditions.

#9: as a wound healer

Treat burns, cuts or wounds instantly with Paw Paw Ointment – it has incredible healing powers.

#10: as a sting soother

Got a bite or a sting? Instantly soothe itchy, swollen skin with Paw Paw Ointment as it promotes fast skin healing.

WHY YOU’LL LOVE THIS STAPLE PRODUCT EVEN MORE

Paw paw is a rich source of peptides, enzymes and antioxidants that promote skin health. However, not all ointments make the most of paw paw’s skin-loving talents. Natralus Natural Paw Paw Ointment contains more than double the amount of fresh fermented Certified Organic Carica Papaya (paw paw) than most well-known paw paw ointments in Australia. It’s also free from petrochemicals, parabens, mineral oils, fragrance and colour and contains lots of skin loving extras such as lanolin, shea butter, beeswax, olive oil, vitamin E and honey. So, if you want to make use of paw paw and its many skin benefits, Natralus Natural Paw Paw Ointment really is the must-have multipurpose beauty staple for all women and their families.

Pawpaw is great for everything!

I used to be obsessed with pawpaw ointment, would be the only product that good soothe my irritated crack skin, I've used it as a face masque so many times. Not sure how it would work as an eye primer though.

It's useful on dry, cracked heels - apply to heels before bed and put on socks and let the paw paw soothe your feet!

I use paw paw ointment but only on my lips! I don't think using it as an eyeshadow primer will work?

Anne980 13 Mar 2014 2:29 AM

Some great ideas

Soan 12 Mar 2014 11:05 PM

Wow.. So many uses. We just use it as lip balm.

ModernSnowWhite 12 Mar 2014 9:50 PM

I use paw paw ointment, and I think it's an amazing multi-use product! I always have some spare.

Paw paw is such an excellent do all product but I find that it is very rarely useful on my lips. I find my lip products don't apply as well if I've used paw paw. I consider paw paw a barrier, not a helpful hand when it comes to lips.

I like many others do have this in my hand bag and one beside the bed. But I really didnt know that it could be used for so many things. Thanks BH for letting us/me know just how much this cream can do. I would never have thought it could be used in so many ways.

Love Paw Paw ointment for dry lips

Karano 12 Mar 2014 12:10 PM

it's called pawpaw ointment, not lip balm, i would've thought half of these uses were rather obvious, although i think the brow styling and eyeshadow primer ones are a bit far-fetched. eyeshadow primers need to be able to dry, or at least become only slightly tacky. u might be able to use pawpaw ointment as a glitter base or like Fyrinnae's pixie epoxy, but it would make a terrible eyeshadow primer. i'd also like to point out that 'fast skin healing' doesn't mean it'll sooth itchy bites, it means ur skin might recover faster, but it'll still itch like hell in the mean time, so frankly that's an invalid use. paw paw ointment is essentially one of those multipurpose balms that get sold for more than double the price, it's awesome, but since it doesn't have all the marketing behind it, it's cheaper. i love pawpaw ointment, but this sponsered article is a bit odd in it's possible uses. besides i'm pretty sure everyone who has a tube of pawpaw ointment has probably tried half of this list already.

I can not imagine using paw paw ointment as a eye shadow base, it would slide everywhere haha

DeannaBoon 12 Mar 2014 11:25 AM

I am using it as a lip balm but never thought it is so multipurpose. The overnight mask for dry skin sounds interesting but not suitable for my oily skin, sad.

Temporary Princess 12 Mar 2014 11:20 AM

I think it's a little too sticky and thick to be a moisturiser!

jatz 12 Mar 2014 11:05 AM

I first tried paw paw ointment years ago for my son's nappy rash and it was the only thing that worked. From then on, I have used it for a few ways but didn't know a few of the above though. Will keep that in mind now :-)

Suren 12 Mar 2014 10:40 AM

Wow these are some great ideas! I've got to try them out sometime

Jessika12 12 Mar 2014 10:35 AM

Do most of these but the eyeshadow and eyebrow hint are great tips I can incorporate into my regime.

sazzy78 12 Mar 2014 10:24 AM

This stuff is brilliant! Have used it for rashes, bites, burns, dry lips and on sunburn if there is no aloe vera around. Never thought of using it as a cuticle cream, will be trying that for sure.

For those who love ink- pawpaw is also the best treatment post-tattoo. (Just as a tattoo FYI- many of the old recommendations for ink aftercare contain zinc oxide, which can result in white pigment healing into your tattoo)

lynx 12 Mar 2014 9:36 AM

Such a versatile product.

Jannz 12 Mar 2014 9:02 AM

I have never tried pawpaw ointments, will keeps these tips in mind if I pick up a tube in future!

IndieAna 12 Mar 2014 8:56 AM

Gotta love a multi-purpose product!
