- These little lotion bars are so simple and fun to make! They're great for travel or in your bag, and they also make a great lip balm too 😘 #lotionbar #diy #homemadelotion #solidlotion
Basic recipe:
3 oz Coconut oil
3 oz luxury butter (I'm using a combo of Shea and Cocoa)

3 to 4.5 oz Beeswax (depending on how hard you want your finished bar)
1/4 t Vit E oil
1/4 t Carrot powder
1/4 t Arrowroot powder (you can use all arrowroot, if you don't have carrot powder)

*Keep* the small bottles after you've emptied them! Refill from your large container, they're easier to work with, and harder to make mistakes with when adding small amount to whatever.😉
A great tip I saw another creator do was melt the whole block of beeswax down and then set it into tiny pellet moulds, pop them out and keep them in a big container or ziplock bag. Makes them easier to measure out for a recipe too
The tiny pellets are so much easier to measure!
@@EllenRuthSoap thank you for sharing all your gorgeous recipes. I’m about to make some lotion bars. I live in South Africa so I hope they work well. I’ve never used a solid lotion bar before. Is this your favourite formulation?
Thank you for this recipe! I made mine with Shea and Mango butters as my luxury oils, and apricot seed oil for the liquid oil portion. It’s keeping my hand eczema at bay with all of this extra hand washing. I love watching your channel!
Those oils sound wonderful! 🥰
I have just used the same oils. I had infused apricot seed oil with calendula flowers and lotion bars seemed like the perfect way to use it.
They look amazing ! Job well done
These are so adorable! Those bumble bees are so cute! I love making solid lotion/butter bars!
Thanks ☺️
Love your recipes Ruth and definitely will give this a go 😍

I made honey Lotion Bars with the same cute 🐝 moulds sometime back. TFS your recipe, I like trying new things. Have a blessed day 💕
I love these little molds, they're so cute!
thank you so much for the demo on making and wrapping - now i know what i will be doing right and what i have been doing not so right - will be making some very soon
You're so welcome 🥰 have fun!
Hi Ellen, I just want to say that I recently made your lip balm recipe and it was fabulous. I made one lotion bar with what I had left from the lip balm and it was soooo amazing. I am ordering more supplies so that I can make more. Love your videos, you are so professional and explain everything so clearly!!
Thank you so much for the tutorial and the recipe.
You're welcome! Enjoy!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and work of art. I really learn and enjoy watching your videos. I made a trial batch of lotion bar and came out great. I used arrowroot powder since I did not had carrot powder. I used cup cake liners in the tin cans and that worked out great.
Lovely so sweet, thank you very much. I have got that particular mould so I might give it a go.
Have fun!
Those are wonderful! I have to try making these 😊
Great tips on keeping them intact in the hot weather! I’m in Maui so I hear you on the hot summers🥵

@@EllenRuthSoap q
Can I just say I love you🥰. You have taught me so much. I have enjoyed every one of your videos. Thank you for sharing your time and talent. We are blessed to have you ❤️
🥰 Awwww, thank you so much. That's such a kind thing to say, blessed my day!
I want to ‘Second’ that. You, Ellen Ruth, are just wonderful and so skilled at your trade. You share your wisdom and pass them down to the next generation or those of us who benefit for for LIFE by using your natural ingredients. These Natural Remedies are effective and superior in EVERY way, from those commercial and chemical-laden products. Thank You, so much! ❤️❤️
Thank you Ms E!
You are so welcome
Thank you so much!
I LOVE THIS!! Thank you so much for the upload!! :-)
🥰 you’re so welcome 😉
Luv the video, thanks for the clean up tips!
💕
Hello Ellen, thank you for sharing your creativity and passion. I always love watching you, and you share important information on the benefits of the product, as well as processes. I have always wanted to learn how to make lotion bars, thank you for sharing your techniques and recipe. Blessings
Thank you so much Ellen! Give it a try, you'll love it!
Thank u for this recipe. This is really worth trying out.😍😍
You're welcome! Have fun making!
Love your channel! Thank you for sharing some of your recipes, especially the soap. It helps a beginner, like me, see the whole process. I also love how you packaged these lotion bars. Very cute and clever!
One tip for you. When you have big chunks of bees wax, break them in to some smaller, but still big chunks. Then line a cookie sheet or even a 9 x 13 pan, with parchment paper making sure it goes up all the sides. Put some of the chunks of wax in there and turn your oven on, really low around 150-170 F, anything higher could be dangerous and cause the wax to brown even more. Let the wax melt. When it's melted take it out and let it cool. If a little of the melted wax gets away and ends up on your pan, just warm it back up and pour it onto the paper. This method works great!
Now you have thin sheets of wax that you can break up and store. It's makes it super easy to break off pieces to measure and get the amount accurate. The thin sheets melt faster also.
🥰 thank you!
Thank you from me too! Excellent idea!👏👏👏💗 (spoken as someone who has several hundred pounds of beeswax sitting around in brick sized blocks) that are a nightmare to work with and store!you've just given me a very pleasant weekend's worth of past time to use.😉😁🤷♀️😍👏👏 (one of those things that keeps getting shoved to the end of the todo list because it's just SUCH a tedious chore and seems like there's no real solution..., yet now, I've suddenly gotten an inspiration!)
That's a RAINBOW!🤷♀️💞🥳🦄
A perfect recipe for this moment in time Ellen, when we are advised to wash our hands more. Mine are getting quite dry from all the washing. Thanks again for sharing another of your recipes :-)
🥰You're so welcome! Enjoy!
Such a well done video with concise explanations. Thank you so much! I’m a beekeeper looking for a couple uses for my beeswax and honey... and youre right... it IS a lot of work to render it!
My hat is off to you! Bee keeping is such a wonderful and needed thing, but it's really labor intensive.
I love that mold and the carrot powder is a great idea, as it is so good for the skin but together with the arrowroot that has to be a wonderful feeling. I don't like the bars for just that reason of them getting tacky. Thanks Ellen. That was great.
Thanks Renee. These do have a really nice feel.
I've tried your recipe for the bars and lip balm and it came out great! I didn't have any coffee filters like yours at home, but I did have some "Jumbo" muffin tin paper liners--they were the perfect size, no trim required. Thank you for all your great recipes!
I love the muffin liner idea 💕
Love it 😍
Hi Ellen, you are always so upbeat and cheerful, you bring a smile to my face each time I watch your vids !😃
I just tried your sea salt bars and they came out perfectly, can’t wait to try these as my skin gets so dry in Toronto. Thanks for sharing the recipe and tips ...Be blessed 🙏🏼
Blessings 🥰 and thank you!
I wholeheartedly agree Kimberly, Ellen is one of those rare treasures that only come along once in a lifetime, so glad Ellen is in my lifetime. 🥰
Thank you dear 😍 that is amazing clip I ever seen I love solid lotion and I didn't know that they are so easy to make , well after your video yes it is so easy to make.
thank you so much .
God bless you and your business, ❤️🌹
Thank you so much 😊
Ty for sharing recipes it helps those like me so much that jus want to make DIYs but can’t afford to buy recipes!!!! I really appreciate ur sharing and kindness ty
I totally agree. And I love all your video's Ellen, you make great soaps. Do you, maybe, have a basic recipe for soap that you could/ would share?
Thank you! Have fun making it !
Thanks! Yes, I've got a few videos out with soap recipes, and I'm have one coming out soon that I share my basic recipe.
thanks soon much , looks amazing
Thank you!
I did the same....with the beeswax....yes! A lot of work🙂I love your channel! Find myself playing your videos all the time now when I'm in my soap room.thank you for sharing all your talent and sweetness! Blessed Be❤
Thanks so much for watching!
I received my order today that included this lotion bar. All I can say is this is a FABULOUS product and it definitely takes my hand moisturizing process from hours to minutes. Thank you so much for all your hard work. I'll definitely be back to buy more.
P.S. I do love watching your channel, not to learn how to make soap but to see how other crafters do their crafts. You are a artist with soap. I wouldn't have the patients. Keep up the great work. 🙂💞
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you're enjoying your lotion bar💕
Greetings Ellen it is so nice to follow your recipes you are a perfect teacher because if you can get you give a substitute you can use which is great
Thank you so much and God continue to bless you
Thank you!
Thank you for this recipe!! I'll make them after my exam!!😊😊
🥰💕
These are wonderful lotion bars! Thanks so much for your inspiration and useful tips!:) From Melbourne, Australia :)

Ellen, thanks for the everything. I came here to get the affiliate link to purchase the tins! I'll have to remember to come here next time I need Nurture loot! 😇
Thank you❣️
Love your gloves ur so natural n down to earth .. gosh for Al that beeswax I would have been trying to get as much as I can but that's a lot of work too.. lovely recipe .. the fragrance I couldn't get online . I love how clean u are impressive .. I have a lil ocd but the gloves is fine 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 great video ❤️❤️
Beautiful
I use a cupcake liner. You can get some beautiful colors and designs!
Oooo, great idea! Thanks for sharing!
Awesome
Hobby soaper here..made this with coconut oil, shea, bees wax, vitamin e, olive & collagen powder.. thank you for this recipe..its Awesome and cleared up my AZ dry skin..I love your videos, your so classy, Merry Christmas to you n your family..
Wonderful! Merry Christmas to you too!
very informative! i keep finding myself stumbling on your videos so i just went ahead and hit that subscribe!
Awesome, thank you!
You can use a chocolate cutter for the blocks of waxes and hard oils. It looks like a small thick tined fork and works great
Thanks so much for the info. I'll look into getting one of those!
I'm working as chef in a care home. I wash hands multiple times a day to begin with. However, having working through the pandemic is something else! Surprisingly, I still have skin left on my hand. I made half a batch of the recipe and it really saves my hands. My cracked fingertips heal much faster than using off-the-shelf lotion. Thank you for sharing the recipe .
So glad you’re enjoying it💕
I’ll have to try the Arrowroot.
LadyGecko it does work! I like a bit more actually.
Debbie Escobar - I just got a pound of it in today so I will be trying it this weekend. I
Love the 🐝
Thanks 💕
I'm going to make this for my girls that are traveling to Spain in June, much better than carrying jars. Also wanted to reach out and pray that you and your family are safe, the tornados did horrible damage.
Yes, these make great traveling bars! And thank you for the prayers, our house was okay, but so many have damage. It's sad.
Made our first soap loaf tonight because of your video. Not sure how it will turn out, we did a couple of different additives and had to re-batch the recipe to our mold size. Fingers crossed! Thanks so much for all of your great videos, you make it look way easier haha
🥰 yay 🎉 that's wonderful 💕
Love
Wow, i just made my lotion bars tonight. I twigged it slightly, and FO Lavender & Patchouli blend, smells divine & feels amazing. I used organic beeswax from a friend who gives us honey. I used EVOO, which we collected from another friends olives. So blessed to live in Greece, with all these rich ingredients for soaps. Thank you Ellen, for your generosity in sharing your recipes, tips, stories & creativity. What a blessing you are. You have taught me so much, inspired me to start a new business in my retirement now that im in Greece. Only thing is, the prices for everything is like 3-4 times higher than the US & my hometown Australia😱😫… lucky i can source some things cheaper, but with 24% tax on everything, its like 😲 when you mention prices. Keep going Ellen, you’re awesome 😍🙏💜
Thanks for watching 🥰💕 your ingredients sound amazing❣️
Pass-teals ❤️❤️❤️❤️your vids!
Oops... I guess you addressed that at the end😃.... I love how you package them!
😘
As I render my beeswax from my hives I will pour it into large and small cupcake liners on my digital scale to measure out 1 ounce and 1/2 ounce portions and then pop them out when they harden and store them in an airtight container. The extra step saves me so much time and now I no longer have to fight the “brick” or measure! Use firm liners or double up, then let cool in the tins. I love your recipe!
Thanks for the fantastic tip! I bet that makes working with the beeswax much easier!
Those look great! Thanks for sharing, you are too kind. I think the coffee filter in the tin is a nice touch. They look nice and rustic and have a little country feel. LOVE IT
🥰 thank you so much 💕
You are such a doll. I love your videos, I wouldn't have waisted that last glove either. LOL Waist not want not.
🥰👍
This sounds like a fantastic product, I'm in Tasmania, Australia and we are going into Autumn then Winter my hands always dry out
It's a great soother for dry skin. I keep one by my sink, to use after washing..
I will try these! Thank you for your recipe! Could you possibly do a video on lip balms? Thanks again!
You're welcome 😊 I actually use the lotion bar for a chap stick too 😉
@@EllenRuthSoap oh, ok..I thought you made tubes...thanks
This you for sharing this process. You do a good job of explaining. God bless 🐝
😊 thank you 🥰
Thank you for sharing this beautiful recipe. You always give so much thought to your creations! Since there is no water phase, isn’t this more of a butter bar than lotion?
Thank you! Yes, I guess it could be considered a "butter bar" , I like the sound of that😉
I'm excited to come along for this. Thanks for sharing
🥰 You're welcome!
Can't wait to try this recipe. Thank you so much for sharing. Also, I'm looking for the type of scale that you use in this video. Could you tell me where you got it? Thank you and I love all of your videos!!
Thank you ☺️! It's a postal scale from Amazon.
Hi Ellen, another wonderful video! I love watching you and love the paper you used for your labels. What color is it please? And where could I also please get your containers?
Containers are from Amazon, and the labels are kraft
Thanks, Ellen, you're a delight to listen to and learn. Much appreciate it!
