Palmers cocoa butter formula on pimples, is this good?

A few options: For over the counter methods try using products that have benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, alcohol, and acetone. For prescription treatments you may be prescribed antibiotics, retinoids or vitamin a derivatives, azelaic acid, oral contraceptives, or spironolactone. Always ask a dermatologist about the possible affects and the risks vs benefits of each treatment. Make sure it's best for you.

Not really: There are much better acne products to use - benzoyl peroxide cream and a salicylic wash would be what i'd recommend first.
