Lotion Bar
- Description

Please note: Our products are handcrafted in small batches. Due to the nature of natural and organic ingredients, changes in color, consistency and scent are expected. This does not impact the quality or efficacy of our products.
Organic Olive Oil
Our Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil is high-quality and cold-pressed extracted from organically grown olives, free from pesticides and synthetic chemicals. Extra Virgin means it has only been pressed once and no heat is involved in the extraction process, meaning it retains all of its nutrients, vitamins and minerals, which we then pass on to you through our formulations.
Rich in antioxidants like vitamin E, polyphenols and healthy fats, it provides deep hydration and helps protect the skin from environmental stressors. Its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties make it ideal for calming dry and irritated skin, and its ability to support the skin's natural barrier promotes long-term moisture.
Local Beeswax
Beeswax acts as a natural emulsifier, helping combine our other ingredients seamlessly. It helps lock in moisture, is healing, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and may help soothe eczema and rosacea.
We source our beeswax from a Minnesota bee farm that demonstrates a true symbiotic relationship with bees. The bees are treated ethically and their health and growing population is top priority.
Bees are an essential part of our ecosystem and true sustainable and ethical bee farming is possible, as farmers remove and prevent pests from raiding colonies and help maintain healthy hives by removing only the excess honey combs, so the bees can flourish.
Organic Shea Butter
Shea Butter is incredibly moisturizing, healing, restorative, anti-inflammatory and promotes skin elasticity. We only use certified Fair Trade and USDA Organic certified Shea Butter in our formulations.
Our Shea Butter is refined using a non chemical process to naturally deodorize. We found that most customers didn't enjoy its natural scent, especially in our unscented formulations. But thankfully, we can benefit from the same properties shea butter has to offer, refined or not.
In this refining process, Shea butter is physically extracted from the shea nuts after the shells have been peeled, boiled and cracked. Once the butter has been melted to separate from the shell, it goes through additional non-chemical processing steps to result in a white and deodorized material. This involves repeated filtering, washing with hot water, and multiple stages of heating and cooling.
Organic Pure Essential Oils
Not all essential oils are created equal, and the quality of essential oils is obvious in their scent. Ours offer a fresh and robust scent. They contain no fillers, phthalates of synthetic fragrance.
Our Unscented Bar contains no added essential oils.
