The amount of the "active ingredient" is almost non-existent. You're really just paying for an overpriced Vaseline or petroleum jelly.
The texture hardens overtime, especially of you buy the tub. And heating it between your palms is more of a unpleasant sticky situation. I prefer Vaseline myself as its smoother and silkier to use, plus saving the papaya industry, for such a small amount of it used... It's creating a shortage globally.

When I had braces I had dry lips. This Papaw Cream was awesome to help moisturise my dry lips when it needed life. I would totally recommend to those who get super dry lips. It is such a good price as well.

Honestly don't understand why people love this rubbish. It's basically Vaseline. It's disgustingly greasy, doesn't moisturise and smells terrible.

Don't bother wasting your money on this rubbish. There are better products out there

I always buy the Papaw Cream in a tub, because I live with four other people who use it in the house. I can use it in many different ways.
1. If I have sore, chapped lips, I apply it and it soothes the mouth. It has a sweet taste to it, but I try not to swallow.
2. It heals burns, scars, scabs and other skin conditions.

It doesn't heal eczema, boils or pimples, which makes sense, I mean, one cream can't solve all your life problems! It is a non-irritant, I have sensitive skin, so this is perfect for people like myself.

It's great that I only need a smudge on my index finger and voilà! My family and I will continue to use and enjoy this product, especially since there is no expiry date!

I have been using this ointment for over 30 years - onetime had a large splinter -put on ointment overnight and wore a sock and in the am the splinter was inside sock and at the moment in the throes of getting rid of blind boils on face - one of which is now almost clear cleared and the other one being treated at the moment. I have used it on my dog for eczema and it was brilliant - gave some to a few friends who had some piercing done and would not heal - within days healed - nothing short of miraculous.

I love buying this for my relatives when I travel overseas. Its a light pricier than the competition but I find its worked the best so far on chapped lips and burn marks

I've had severely cracked lips for several weeks due to using a CPAP machine; nothing was helping- not coconut oil, not standard vaseline, not standard lip balms. Remembered I had this is the cupboard and started using it. Within two days they were much improved and now a week later completely normal. I apply it before bed and again once or twice during the day. Superb result. And to those who say its glorified vaseline? I don't care if it is. It works better than vaseline did and I'm happy! HIGHLY recommended

This product is a must in any home. My tradie son loves it, my grandson who is scared to use medicinal products loves it and I love it. I have psoriasis and it's been a huge benefit. When you have it on a large amount of your body as I do you can't use a medicated steroid cream as you can only use it on a small area at a time. Because this is natural I can use it when ever I want. I love the big tubs for home and tiny tube for my handbag. My friend uses it on her foster baby Roos and wombats too to keep their skin soft and protected.

A natural product, not just this one. Paw paw cream is a magician. I could not believe my eyes. Such rapid healing properties. Try it, the more natural the better. There is no other ointment concocted by science to date that comes near it, it works! I'm not telling fibs people.

i have tried all medication creams given to me by the specialist was told you cant cure it but control it... well i had a tube of your cream and tried it for the last week i have no red and sore feet and it is healing ..relief after 3 years of stinging itchy feet i can walk without it being sore ....well i will be back to the chemist or more THANK YOU

I suffer from itchy feet at night and sometimes it wakes me up in the middle of the night and I had awful trouble getting the itching to stop until I bought Lucas Pawpaw cream. I put it on my feet and in a very short time it stops my feet from itching and I can then go back to sleep so I always have it by my bed at night now for reassurance. It's also good to apply if you accidentally burn your self with a fan oven when you open the door. If you don't have a tube or tub of the ointment yet then make sure you buy on today.

Dunno about the ingredients but it totally destroys cold sores, used it on one on my lip and it made it disappear quickly. I think it's fantastic! If you suffer from the odd cold sore I highly recommend it. It soothes and heals it quickly.

I'v been using this for years and find its a perfect night creème. I've tried different version but this one seems the most effective and its cheap.. found bottles for about $3.50 at coles.

I'm a 46 year old woman and I've been given paw paw cream as a present from Australia. I use it as a night cream and find it to be fantastic.

This folks is just petroleum jelly with 0.4% pawpaw in it! This would have to be the most appalling marketing con job in Australia. It doesn't take long to read up and find out how bad it is. Get real paw paw cream like Fix Organic.

Gosh, I love this stuff! It works on nearly everything - cuts, stings, bites, chafing, minor burns, chapped lips, even dry skin. We have a tube of pawpaw cream in our house at all times.

Lucas' papaw Ointment is now nothing more than expensive Vasoline. In recent years, the company has reduced the amount of fermented fruit in their recipe. You may have noticed that the smell has changed - that is why.

If you want good quality papaw balm, you're better off going for the Suvana Organic brand.

Sorts out chapped lips, healing skin, super dry feet. Otherwise use sparingly. I sent this to my mechanic partner serving in Afghanistan winter, and he said it was magic on his ruined hands!

I had dry lips so i put Pawpaw ointment on my lips. And i felt no pain, but the next day when i went to the beach the salt water stung my lips. So i put Blistex lip pain on my lips. after i went in salt water i would always put Pawpaw on my lips 3 days later my lips were normal and did not hurt. thanks to Lucas' Pawpaw ointment and Blistex lip pain.
