Will this work well with lotions? Thanks

We've used it for a thicker lotion type soap and it works well. I think it should do for body/hand lotion.

It will work with anything that sticks to it and doesn't drip off, such as lotion or gel. It's a great product! Shela D.

i used this on my face with no problems. I used lotion on my face first and it worked great! I do not have sensitive skin.

Yes, basically think of it as an "extension palm". Most lotion is thick enough that it will stay on until you can apply to back.I bought another applicator at the same time as this one that had rollers and a reservoir you put the lotion in. It didn't really work any better, and then you either had to clean out the reservoir or leave lotion in there (that would eventually get nasty).

You would want to use hydrous lanolin, which has had some water blended in to the lanolin to make it like a cream or lotion. It is more expensive, because of the extra step in preparation, and well worth it (or the time & effort to do it yourself) as this stuff is VERY sticky. I use it added to shea butter and bees wax to make a balm that doesn't wash off the hands the first time I get my hands in water.

It states you can use it over sunscreen lotion, however the best effect is if you use alone. Younwill not be disappointed! :)

I'm not familiar with lotion bars, personally. However, as long as they are a consistency that is firm enough to maintain a bar shape they should work just fine with these deodorant containers. I used them for homemade deodorant made from shea butter, cocoa butter, Vit E oil, baking soda and corn starch as the main ingredients. They turned out great. One tip.. tap them on the counter or stir the contents a little (maybe do both) to prevent air bubbles from getting trapped and ruining the nice look of your bars. ;) Hope that helps.

You can but you might turn orange or it might irritate your skin, so just dab a bit of oil in with your lotion on your hand, mix and then apply.

I use mine for skin cream only. But use your message will inspect the imagined it will work just as well.the stuff that comes out is very warm and very good for putting on your skinI really like it!

It leaves a sticky residue on my skin. I would not use this for skin. Try Cetaphil lotion if you have dry skin.

I'm guessing it depends on the thickness of the lotion; I suspect the motor is not designed to dispense very thick liquids, but should work with most normal lotions....

I use it in my home made sugar scrub, and have never had any problems. I would think using it in lotion would be fine, as well!

I don't know. I am using it with cocoa butter and shea moisturizer. No problem.

I'd think it would. I've used it with lotions & ointments alike. I can't exactly describe the texture, but it isn't sponge-like in an absorbent way. It doesn't appear to soak up your product, while still being soft & pliable enough to rub it in well.

Yes! I have used it to make lotion, lotion bars, and lip balm. Love it! It does have a rich chocolate scent that is impossible to cover, so don't try. Use Shea butter instead. But the chocolate scent works really well combined with peppermint or orange. Basic recipe is equal parts butter (Shea or Cocoa) and an oil (coconut, olive) with beeswax (amount determines how firm the product will be). Best way to test a recipe is to start with small amounts, place ingredients in a small jelly jar, and heat in a pan of water until everything melts. Remove from heat, let sit for a few minutes and then stir in essentials oils if using. The jar becomes your storage container, so you don't have any cleanup.

I use it in my homemade lotions. You can get info from wellnessmama.com and diynatural.com. It is amazing for sore muscles. Hope this helps :)

In my case, no but I just began to use this less than a week. Please note, the finished is soft touch and also depend on your hands and type of lotion you are using.
