Pawpaw is a naturally safe ingredient used in skin care products and cosmetics. Very similar to the papaya fruit, it is rich in anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory and anti-parasitic properties, which has numerous benefits for your skin. If you've been tempted by skin care products flavoured with pawpaw in the past, it will make all the difference if you choose a natural one such as our Natralus Natural Paw Paw Balm. Here are nine ways to use your natural pawpaw ointment and cream.
1. Moisturising and repairing face mask
Pawpaw has superior skin hydrating factors that make it perfect as a natural moisturiser. Does your skin feel tight and dry? Pawpaw can be an excellent remedy for a dry face. Apply a layer of the product before bed and wake up with a smooth and plump complexion. It is also an ideal moisturiser for acne prone skin. If you have dry or sensitive skin, you can incorporate pawpaw into your natural skin care routine. A smooth body can give anyone a confidence boost. However, dehydrated skin can stand between you and that flawless look you're going for. The good news is that papaya products can make the best body lotion for dry skin.
2. Deep cleansing and cell regeneration for acne
The anti-inflammatory aspects of the papaya enzyme can help to treat pimples and acne. It deeply cleanses the face to remove all manner of clogging on the pores that would cause pimples. Dark spots are usually caused by damage caused in the second layer of the skin. The dead tissues can leave the face with spots that appear darker, caused by a lack of nutrients and blood supply to the injured tissue. However, beta-carotene in papaya assists in the regeneration of new healthy cells, to replace the damaged old ones. Natural pawpaw creams and ointments can fade away acne spots without the need for harsh bleaching agents. Using pawpaw products is both a preventive and curative measure for acne and pimples. It doesn’t matter whether your skin is dry, oily, or sensitive; our natural pawpaw products can take care of your specific skin concerns. Paw paw also moisturises the skin to leave your face supple, rejuvenated, and free of acne marks.
3. For cuts, burns, scratches and inflammation
The anti-inflammatory benefit of pawpaw can help relieve inflamed and irritated eyes. The flesh and skin of the pawpaw are good for burns because they enable them to heal faster. Our natural pawpaw balm can be used on sunburns, scratches, cuts and bites, helping to soothe irritation.
4. Hydrating lip balm
Knowing the components that make up your lip balm is critical. Above all, you should invest in one whose ingredients you won’t mind ending up in your stomach. Our pawpaw balm helps moisturise the skin on and around your lips, and since it's all-natural, there's no problem if you accidentally consume any. Remember that your lips are highly sensitive as only a thin layer of skin covers them, so you should treat them with the best care. This balm is free from petroleum jelly, which allows it to sink into the skin and moisturise the lips.
5. Baby care
The anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties of pawpaw make our pawpaw products ideal for babies with sensitive skin. The heat and wetness beneath their diapers can make them vulnerable to nappy rash, but a soothing and natural pawpaw cream can be applied to a baby’s bottom after each nappy change. While every child is unique, one thing is for sure; every part of their skin is delicate, so this should be a nappy bag essential for every mum. But that's not all. Baby eczema on eyelids, baby acne, and baby psoriasis can make a child uncomfortable too. Pawpaw contains papain enzyme that can help cleanse and unclog blocked pores that cause acne. Baby eczema cream and baby barrier cream for the face made from natural pawpaw can help soothe these conditions.
6. Taming frizzy hair
Apply some amount of pawpaw balm to the ends of your wild hair to tame it and give back definition. You don’t have to pay a lot of money purchasing hair products when you have a natural option. The uses of pawpaw ointments are unlimited.
7. Natural body wash
Pawpaw has natural cleansing properties that can clear the skin of any impurities. It has vitamin A that helps to regenerate old dead skin, leaving your body soft and supple. The alpha hydroxyl acids can prevent visible signs of ageing such as fine lines and wrinkles, and it can brighten and rejuvenate your skin with its vitamin E and C contents.
8. Anti-ageing
Free radicals in the skin are responsible for premature signs of ageing such as wrinkles, but natural pawpaw has antioxidant properties that can eliminate this damage. You can forget about the crow’s feet at the corners of your eyes and the fine lines on the forehead with a regular pawpaw skin care routine.
9. Beauty with care
It’s the dream of any Australian to have picture-perfect, flawless skin. But this can be a tough journey, especially if you have highly sensitive skin. Most beauty products in the market are filled with petrochemicals and harsh preservatives that can react with both baby and adult skin. Some of them end up clogging your pores with oils, causing pimples and acne scars. Look for a beauty product rich in organic ingredients like Natralus if you want to see real hydrating, anti-inflammatory and cleansing results.
At Natralus, we believe in all-natural, healthy beauty products. We do not add petroleum, parabens, or chemicals. Our ingredients are all local and organic, and we are committed to providing quality skin care products.
