Make Your Own Hard Lotion A Healing Alternative to Traditional Lotions

Today’s liquid commercial lotions have more toxic chemicals than we want to admit. Homemade liquid lotions have a shelf life of only a couple of weeks. Hard lotion is the solution for those interested in avoiding commercial products or lotions with short shelf lives and who want smooth, soft skin.

Amberlee, the owner of the noted Amberlee’s Apothecary and full-time chemist, and Caleb Warnock, the self-sufficiency expert, have teamed up to provide easy-to-make hard lotion solutions for your skin needs. With key health ingredients like coconut and avocado oils, hard lotions are simply the best solution to the skin you want. And, creating your lotion at home is fun and far less expensive than the commercial alternatives.

Caleb Warnock is the popular author of Forgotten Skills of Self-Sufficiency, The Art of Baking with Natural Yeast, Backyard Winter Gardening For All Climates, More Forgotten Skills, Trouble's On The Menu, and the Backyard Renaissance Collection. He is the owner of SeedRenaissance.com and blogs at CalebWarnock.blogspot.com, where you will find a link to join his email list to learn more about forgotten skills. 

Amberlee Rynn is the founder and owner of Amberlee's Apothecary, where she manufacturers scented and unscented hard lotion bars, natural chopsticks, and other products in addition to teaching lotion-making classes. Her products are sold at SeedRenaissance.com, on Etsy, and at local farmers' markets. Amberlee has a bachelor's degree in chemistry from Utah Valley University and works as a full-time forensic chemist for the state of Utah.
