A solid little bar that warms in your hands and soaks into skin — without the heavy, sit-on-top feel of most body butters.
This was the first thing I made. I was working with clay every day and my hands were paying for it — but every lotion bar I tried was really just a body butter in disguise, all heavy emollients that sat on top of my skin without doing much for it.
So I built one that works differently. A small amount of emulsifying wax helps the butters and oils actually absorb instead of just coating, while shea, mango, and cocoa butter give it the kind of slow, sinking-in nourishment that dry hands really need. It comes in a 1 oz tin, warm-it-in-your-palm and apply where you need it — hands, elbows, cuticles, anywhere the season has gotten to you.
—
Scent: Lightly scented with an essential oil blend featuring frankincense — soft, warm, and quiet. The blend makes up about 1% of the formula, so it lingers rather than announces itself.
—
To use: Warm between your hands and apply to dry or damp skin as needed.
—
Good to know:
- Store in a cool, dry place — the bar will soften in warm weather but firms back up
- Pure oil products don't technically need preservatives, but it is a good idea for lotion bars. Water and skin contact during regular use can introduce contamination, so a small amount of preservative is included to keep the bar safe over time.
