Honey Lavender Rose Lotion Bars for Ashy Skin

Ashy Skin driving you crazy? Make a few honey lavender rose lotion bars and keep them around the house, and you will never have to worry about dry flaky ashy skin again. All the ingredients to make the honey lavender lotion rose bars are shelf stable and should keep for at least six months. I dare say however they will not stay laying around for that long.

The difference between a lotion bar and your standard lotion is simple. A lotion bar acts like a Hershey's Kiss. It will stay in a solid state until your body heat gently melts the honey lavender rose lotion bar. This means you will never have greasy skin from the bar as it will only apply a very thin layer of lotion to the areas in need. Less is more in the case of this wonderful lotion bar, as there are no drying agents or other harmful stabilizing chemicals in the lotion bar which are commonly found in over the counter lotions. Equally important however, each ingredient is tailored to create radiant skin, and provide long lasting relief from dry itchy skin.

Why rub yourself with lotion every few hours, when you can help treat the underlying issues and provide lasting relief. That is what you will find when you use this amazing honey lavender rose lotion bar! A word of caution however, being heat activated DIY Herbs suggests leaving your honey lavender lotion bars in a cool location when not in use. Unless of course you enjoy a lotion mess on your counter tops, in your purse, on your dashboard etc. In that case take it with you everywhere! We hope you enjoy!
