What is a solid lotion bar?

I get this question a lot when I'm at craft shows. Here is how the typical exchange goes:

Customer: What is a Solid Lotion bar?

Me: Well, its a convenient portable alternative to lotion. It's a combination of lip balm and body butter. I use a combination of Organic Cocoa Butter, Fair Trade Shea Butter, Organic Virgin Coconut oil and Beeswax. So, its super moisturizing. This also makes them more heat stable than a typical body butter, but not as waxy as a lip balm. They are great for moisturizing cuticles, elbows and dry hands. The tin they come in is light weight which makes them great for purses, desks, and travel. And you can reuse or recycle the tin.

Customer:
That sounds kind of great.

Yep, they definitely are.

To get your own -go to my Etsy shop.

Great explanation! But about how many times do you have to say that while at the craft show? That would drive me cuckoo! :)
