How To Use Lotion Bars
These solid lotion bars are a perfect size and are good for several uses. You can also use these in the shower! I use them right when I get out of the shower and my skin is still a bit wet. Just glide them over your skin wherever you need to be moisturized. Then, I let my skin air dry. After doing that, my skin is SO soft and smells delightful!
