Lotion Bars

Lotion bars are a quick and easy way to apply moisturizers.  Made with natural ingredients.

Great year round - in the summer after a long day playing in the sun or a cold winter day playing in the snow.
Great for all ages.  My children love being able to use these!  I can let my preschooler and toddler apply their own without worrying about a huge mess as I would with liquid lotions.

The solid bar will soften when rubbed on your skin or between your hands. Apply to any dry areas like soles of feet, hands, legs, chapped lips or elbows. If irritation occurs, discontinue use.

Made with beeswax, coconut oil and/or sweet almond oil and/or avocado oil, shea butter, cocoa butter, and essential oils.
