Calendula Comfrey solid lotion bar


Just in time for the fall/winter season. Made with body butters, oils and infused herbal oils that will help soften dry damaged skin. Both calendula and comfrey have been known to help heal the skin. A great combination with our Calendula Comfrey soap. Check it out on our etsy shop.



Our solid lotion bar comes in a tin container.


Other lotion bars we are carrying are:

Lavender - help soothe the nerves

Lavender Patchouli - nice earthy scent of patchouli with a slight scent of lavender

Eucalyptus Mint - great for those tires, achy muscles after a long day. Great for the feet.

Savory Herbal Blend

This is a great blend for those who would like to eliminate salt in their diet, but still have flavor in their food. The blend is perfect for those who are just experimenting with herbs, just a few, but enough to make a difference in your cooking. It contains dill weed, oregano, chives, grated lemon peel, celery seeds and ground pepper. If you put them through the food processor, fill your salt shaker withe it and substitute it instead of having the salt. Try it in popcorn. It might amaze you.
Other ways of using it can be on baked potatoes, soups and vegetables.
