Lotion Bar: Meadow

Our award winning handcrafted solid lotion bar with shea butter, borage oil, infused with chamomile and yarrow. Fragrant geranium and relaxing lavender for a floral summer scent.

Made from a base of cocoa butter, we have chosen nourishing, lightweight plant oils infused with herbs and scented to remind you of a meadow in full bloom. Some of the ingredients we have chosen include:

Borage Oil is a fantastic source of GLA (Gamma Linoleic Acid) which helps regenerate, firm and rejuvenate the skin's barrier function and maintain skin elasticity.  Borage oil also contains linoleic acid which helps to prevent wrinkles and premature aging, fights loss of skin elasticity and dryness. Ellagic acid supports the production of collagen, preventing its breakdown and regenerating skin cells. Ferulic acid, an antioxidant more effective than vitamin E, protects and soothes damage caused by sun and weather.

Shea Butter is rich in vitamins, plant sterols, minerals and other nourishing compounds for the skin.  The butter softens, protects against drying, and nourishes.  High in vitamins E and A, shea butter locks in moisture, increases elasticity and evens out skin tone.

Chamomile has been used in skincare for years, it is anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, anti-fungal and antiseptic.

Yarrow has anti-inflammatory and anti-allergenic properties, with astringent properties, it is good for oily and acne-prone skin.

Lavender has been used for hundreds of years as it has a multitude of benefits.  It is antibacterial, can help calm stress and anxiety and of course aids sleep.

Rose Geranium has a longstanding reputation as an essential oil particularly suited to women.  It is supportive of the reproductive system and is also astringent, balancing the skin's production of sebum. Emotionally the oil is uplifting, as it can help with anxiety and depression.

Clary Sage helps ease stress and frazzled nerves.

How to use your bar:

Rub between your clean, dry hands, the lotion will start to melt as it warms up.  Rub this into anywhere that needs some attention! To make sure your lotion bar lasts as long as possible, do not use with wet hands and store in its tin in a cool dry place.
