About my Lotion Bars, Scrubs & Soaps-

Lotion Bars are convenient, mess free alternative to traditional moisturizers.

Unlike conventional body lotions that are creamy & liquid, lotion bars are solid at room temperature and are typically packaged like a bar of soap.

In the case of Art of JL lotion bars, in a reusable tin.

They are made of natural ingredients like beeswax, cocoa butter or shea butter, and coconut or avocado oil. They do not contain water, and as a result, they are more concentrated and eliminate the need for added preservatives, as there is very little chance of spoilage or mold.

Lotion bars is remain solid until their application, at which point your body's heat melts the bar, giving it a slippery consistency that glides effortlessly across the skin. Additionally, because lotion bars don't come with a bottle and pump dispenser, they provide a more sustainable option by reducing the need for unrecyclable materials. 

Using a lotion bar is simple. Like a bar of soap, you start by placing the bar in your hands, to warm it up.

Once it’s melted a little, you can either rub the bar directly onto your skin or massage it between your hands and then apply.

Lotion bars can be used all over the body provided you are not allergic to the core ingredients or sensitive to the essential or fragrance oils used within.

As always, it is wise to do a skin test 24 hours prior to use, and to remember that these are hand crafted small batch artisan body products.

The consumer agrees to use them responsibly, and take precautions for their own skin sensitivities.

I have been lovingly making lotion bars, pouring them one at a time, since 2020.

Body scrubs physically remove dead skin cells from the outer layer of your skin with abrasive ingredients, such as sugar or salt.

This stimulates skin cell turnover, resulting in smoother, brighter skin and possibly preventing future acne breakouts.

Coffee scrubs also help invigorate the skin. The caffeine within has been proven to give skin a firmer, more youthful appearance.

I make several types of scrubs, and some of them are seasonal or limited.

Goat milk soap is a gentle cleanser rich in fatty acids that can help support a healthy skin barrier to keep skin nourished and moisturized. Moreover, its high lactic acid content may help exfoliate the skin, which may benefit those with acne.

Goat milk soap has several beneficial characteristics that can help keep your skin looking and feeling great.
Most commercially made soaps contain harsh surfactants that can strip your skin of natural moisture and oils, leaving it feeling dry and tight.
To maintain your skin’s natural moisture, it’s best to use products that don’t remove the natural fats in the skin barrier.
Goat milk soap boasts high amounts of fats, allowing for gentle removal of dirt and debris without removing the skin’s natural fatty acids.
Goat milk is a good source of vitamin A, fat soluble vitamin shown to have anti-aging properties, and selenium, a mineral shown to support a healthy skin membrane. It may even improve psoriasis symptoms like dry skin.
Dry skin is a condition caused by low water levels in the skin. Normally, your skin’s lipid barrier slows moisture loss. That’s why low lipid levels can lead to excess moisture loss and dry, irritated, and tight skin. People with certain dry skin conditions, namely psoriasis and eczema, often have lower levels of lipids, such as cholesterol, ceramides, and fatty acids, in the skin.
To improve dry skin, the lipid barrier must be restored and rehydrated. Goat milk soap’s high cholesterol and fatty acid levels may replace missing fats while providing moisture to allow for better water retention Additionally, the use of harsh soaps can strip the skin of its natural moisture, which can worsen dry skin. Using a gentle, fat rich soap like goat milk soap can support and replenish the skin’s moisture.
