Wildcrafted Dandelion and Violet Lotion Bar

This simple lotion bar is made from wildcrafted dandelion flowers (Taraxacum officinale) and violet flowers (Viola sororia). Responsibly foraged from pesticide-free zones and infused in organic jojoba oil, these lotion bars are fortified with organic shea butter for maximum moisturization. Apply to dry and chapped skin during the winter, or keep in your fridge for a cooling lotion in the warmer months.

To use, let your body warmth melt the bars and apply onto dry and chapped skin. For external use only. Store in a cool, dry place, and lotion bars should be good for 12-18 months from the date on the tin. Discard if you note any changes to the smell.

Ingredients: Foraged dandelion buds (Taraxacum officinale), foraged violet flowers (Viola sororia), organic jojoba oil, organic shea butter, vitamin E (Tocopheryl acetate).
