Lotion bars will melt in the heat.  If your lotion bar melts, put it in the fridge for an hour or so, it will firm up and be ready to use again.

 

What is a Lotion Bar?  Pure and simple, it's a solid lotion.  Just rub it between your hands, then apply as desired to hands, face, feet, body...for tough dirt, auto grease, makeup remover - rub in and let set a few minutes, then wash with one of our fabulous soaps, viola! Then rub some in to moisturize.
