I have started using palmers cocoa butter to moisturize my face. and in that time i developed 2 big zits. I never get zits so i was wondering is there anything in the cocoa butter lotion that shouldnt be on my face ?

It's not necessarily bad for skin on the face, but just like ANY skin care, your results will differ from other people's results... so if you've been using it and it's been working for you, then by all means, keep using it! You may want to try just using it on an isolated area of your cheek for a week to see if you develop zits in that specific area. If you don't after a week, I'd say you're fine!

I wouldn't say that it is bad for your skin but it's a very thick formula meaning it may be clogging your pores. Look into something like Cetaphil or Lubriderm. :)

XOXO, Jazmine.

Usually an oil-free formula is good for not clogging your pores. I would always use a face specific moisturizer since, for me, my face is very sensitive compared to my entire body.

Cocoa butter is more like a lotion than a moisturizer. In other words, it is meant for your body rather than your face. I would look for a moisturizer (I use Clinique's Moisture Surge-- love!) that is noncomodegenic. Good luck! :)
