How to use: Take the foot lotion bar and rub it slowly on your feet – it will slightly melt – spread it thoroughly with gentle massage. You can also use this bar on your hands for smoother skin.

Coconut Oil: Coconut oil has an excellent emollient property and is suitable for use in skin care products where its light texture is ideal for dry and sensitive skin. Just as with cocoa butter, coconut oil is ideal for the scrub cube, since they are both solids at room temperature and melt when they come into contact with the heat from your body.

Shea Butter: The physical properties of shea oil allow it to easily absorb into the skin promoting skin elasticity. Shea Oil will not leave an oily or greasy residue typical of many oils. It is a great natural emollient and can be used to treat dry skin and hair. It contains a high level of vitamins A, E, F and oleic fatty acid.

Shea oil can be used in the production of baby care products as well.
