Perfumed Lotion Bar
Lotion bars are an ideal way to incorporate fragrance into solid emollient products. This formula uses IPM to reduce the greasiness typically found in these vegetable butter and oil based products. It provides enough hardness to enable them to be poured into stick-type product dispensers, but can also be poured into jars if desired. Hardness can be adjusted by varying the ratio of beeswax to liquid oils.
