They look beautiful hun. I was just in the hospital with Covid pneumonia and I have congested heart failure. They didn’t think I was gonna make it. And here I am and I left the hospital 2 days early no less. They said I was a modern day miracle that they can’t explain. But while I was in the hospital scared and alone I watched ur videos and Holly’s, Katie’s, Karen’s, tiara’s and Tiggy’s video’s and it really calmed me and helped distract me. So thank u!

I have to thank you, Ellen. I've been blessed with so many sales on my lotion bars because of your recipe. I've made little adjustments here and there but the base recipe has been a hit since day 1. Most of my customers have never seen a lotion bar and as soon as they try one they are hooked. I recently got my products in a locally made-only store and I am selling out of lotion bars weekly! I wouldn't have this level of success if it wasn't for your generosity in sharing these incredible recipes. Blessings to you and thank you again!!

Thank you! I wanted to learn how to make my own after spending $45 on a solid moisturizer from Sephora. Applying moisturizer in this format is such a relaxing self-care ritual. I'll be mimicking the smell of the sephora one by using lavender and chamomile oils at first for the scent. The product I'm referring to is packaged in cheesecloth in a bamboo box to preserve it. I highly recommend the cheesecloth wrapping! It's a nice, inexpensive addition.

I like the new hair cut! 💇‍♀️ We love this solid lotion recipe. I actually market it as “dry lotion”. People are like, “Ooo what’s that?” Thank you for sharing!

As a flight attendant on ultra long haul flights, these lotion bars are a blessing! Since I don't have to worry about 100 ml liquid rule, it's really handy to carry around and moisturize dry hands. Highly recommended 🎉

I just been making balms all day my new summer hobby. I just LOVE making these. I used vegan wax so l used different silicone forms.

She is such a beautiful person inside and out.

This came up in my feed perfect timing! I just ordered another bee mold to make these:) I love your videos! You are so kind and have such a soothing voice.

[monicasundgren]

I loved your tutorial. I got a lotion bar at a craft fair many years ago and wish to try this myself. For gifts for family and friends. Thank you for all of your knowledge.

[amymason]

Love the coffee filter idea for protecting the lotion bars.

[lindadechow]

This turned out great! I combined your recipes from the rose butter recipe, and just used two butters since my cocoa butter was a bit hard, and included mango. Also arrowroot, which definitely makes a difference. Yumm! Thanks for the recipe. I purchased Mrs Clause Cookies from Natures Garden, and it smells delicious. ❤

[RosemaryN]

Love your recipe! Love your packaging! I would consider a little sticker in the middle to hold the coffee liner edges together. Thanks for this video 😄

[dawnbowie]

The "haircut" is great! I'll be going to your website for purchase. My skin wil be thanking you for your natural ingredients!❤

[laurie]

Thank you for sharing all your wisdom. Your sense of humor makes these educational videos so fun to watch.

[ramonasandoval]

I've made these lotion bars and they work beautifully! I also enjoy watching and learning from your videos.🙂

[darcyandrews]

These are adorable Ellen - and I giggled at your coffee filter trimming. I was like : ‘why isn’t she cutting them beforehand?!’ But who am I to laugh - you reminded me of when I announced I was going to “work harder not smarter” 😂😩🥹

[Kavikwolf]

Made some of these last year after watching your video, they are absolutely wonderful especially in winter time. Thank you so much for sharing with use :)

[sandywest]

I have a bee farm so I process my own beeswax. I made these for kicks and my coworkers love them.
