Hand made hand lotion bars

Our solid hand and body lotion bars are a blend of beeswax, cocoa butter, almond oil & other natural vegetable oils. They are hand crafted in southern Virginia. While solid at room temperature, the lotion softens at skin temperature and can then be messaged into the skin. The oils will soak in and help to moisturize and soften the skin. Because this is an oil based rather than a water based product, the lotion will remain on the skin for much longer and is especially beneficial for cold weather conditions or as a night cream.

The lotions are available Fragrance Free, and in four scented varieties, all using only pure essential oils,
The solid hand lotions come in a round slip-covered tin that can be safely carried in your purse, pocket or pack. The tins are also useful once the lotion is used up for carrying small items. They are packaged in 3 oz bars. 

$8.00 per tin
