Calm Butter Bits are lotion bars portioned perfectly for 1 use. are made with organic butters, like Aloe, Mango and Shea butter mixed with plant-based oils and vegan wax, not Beeswax! Most lotion bars are made with Beeswax and it's creating an imbalance. We don't want nature unbalanced! Plant-based ingredients have the same properties witout all the bee drama. About Turmeric, it is added (in copious amounts)to Safflower oil, instead of Mica, to avoid getting ingredients so small, they seep into your skin and stay there! Let's try to avoid that too. Sublte smelling essential oils that don't smell like childrens' perfume! That overwhleming and long-lasting scent also overwhelms the skin, making it itchy and thirsty for more lotion! Butter Bits cover your skin with nutrious and natural ingredients clean enough to eat! with no Parabens, sulfates, phthalates or plastic.
