This super-concentrated moisturizing formula will take your dry, itchy, stretched or cracked skin straight to cocoa buttery, warm and tingly, super soft nirvana. There is no water in this lotion, just the creamy emollient skin conditioners your damaged skin craves. I developed this product for the itchy, stretched skin from which pregnant mommies suffer. It smells absolutely divine, and glides right on the belly. But it is also wonderful for a variety of other uses, including dry, cracked skin on heels, elbows, knees, knuckles, windburned cheeks and anywhere else a regular lotion just won't cut it. Because there's no water, there's also no need for chemical preservatives or emulsifying compounds. Just all-natural skin-loving oils and butters to nourish your sensitive skin!

2.7 ounce solid bar packaged in a deodorant-style twist up tube. Please see my shop for the listing for the smaller pocket sized tube shown in the photo. Stows nicely in a purse or diaper bag, or keep it on the bedside table to deal with those midnight itches! May melt if left in the car, so be sure to keep it with you!

Each ingredient in this formula is carefully selected to provide the therapeutic benefits your growing skin needs:

Wildcrafted Calendula - Calendula blossoms contain flavenoids which are known for their anti-inflammatory properties. Calendula is a very effective treatment for skin irritations, such as rashes, itchiness, redness, bumps, and hot skin.

Organic Olive Oil - Used for thousands of years for numerous medical and cosmetic uses, olive oil is rich in fatty acids and antioxidants. Some sources say it can even prevent breast cancer.

Beeswax - Provides a barrier to lock in moisture, and makes the lotion bar solid enough to apply easily.

Organic Coconut Oil - Coconut oil can improve the elasticity of skin, helping your skin grow to accommodate your growing baby, and return to its original state after pregnancy.

Organic Cocoa Butter - Pregnant women have long enjoyed the benefits of cocoa butter as a prevention against stretch marks and itchiness associated with pregnancy.

Organic Unrefined Raw Shea Butter - Shea butter has been used in Africa for thousands of years to treat everything that ails the skin. It provides moisture, protection from environmental stresses, and increases circulation.

Organic Castor Oil - Castor Oil is said to break up scar tissue and encourage healthy cell growth. It also provides a nice glide to the lotion bar.

Hemp Seed Oil - Made of 80% essential fatty acids, hemp seed oil helps your skin grow stronger, healthier, and better able to retain moisture.

Lavender Essential Oil - lavender is one of the best essential oils for skin. It helps the skin heal itself by stimulating new cell growth, preventing scarring, and minimizing localized pain and skin irritations.

Ginger Essential Oil - Ginger stimulates circulation, which will help with new cell growth. It also has aromatherapeutic benefits, as the scent of ginger can help ease symptoms of nausea and dizziness.

Helichrysum Essential Oil - Helichrysum is excellent at stimulating cell growth, minimizing scarring, and helping stretched skin return to its former relaxed state.

Chamomile Essential Oil - Chamomile has soothing and calming effects on the skin as well as the spirit. It is effective in cooling hot skin, and reducing irritation.

Please note - this product has not been evaluated by the FDA, and is not meant to treat, heal or cure any physical condition. If you are unsure about the appropriateness of this product for your condition, please consult with a health practitioner. Furthermore, many reputable sources discourage the use of essential oils during pregnancy. My formula uses very low concentrations of essential oils, and I have chosen oils that are not known for their toxicity during pregnancy. If you would prefer a formula without essential oils, please let me know. I will be happy to make an unscented batch for you.
