Carrying lotion in your purse or travel bag can be risky because you never know when it might leak or worse explode. Lotion bars are the perfect solution to moisturizing throughout the day. They are easy to carry and provide your skin with the nutrients to keep it from being dry, irritated, or flakey. Additionally, a lotion bar typically lasts as long as several bottles of lotion. Eco-friendly and long-lasting lotion bars are a win-win for your skin and the planet. So ditch the greasy mess and leaky bottles and embrace the lotion bar revolution.

The prickly pear nourishes the skin with its anti-inflammatory properties, and Vitamin E and Vitamin K help restore the skin barrier function. Massaging the skin with the bar on dry areas brings back a healthy glow to the skin, looking supple and healthy.
