Can this be used to warm body scrubs, body butters and massage lotions?

If you mean to warm/melt ingredients to mix them, I would definitely say yes! If you mean to just keep them warm all day for use on people's skin, I'm not sure - it might be a little too warm. There is no temp control on the unit, only on or off. So you'd have to test it with the scrubs/lotions you want to use and see if it feels too hot to you.

The only temperature settings for this product are on and off... While this would probably work great at melting wax, etc... It would likely keep them at too hot of temperature for instant use... Remember that food temps have to be kept at hotter temperatures (to kill bacteria, etc in food) than what body butters, scrubs, and lotions would be kept at for comfortable use... I would think you could subject someone to severe burns if you used oils, etc right from the crock... But, I have never tried it... and must admit... Its a clever idea! ... Over time, I could really see a sugar scrub carmelizing in the crock... which would definitely create some issues... The only temperature settings for this product are on and off...

yes it can. I use the oil pure on my hands and scalp. I mix it with my favorite organic lotion to rub on my body. The oil can be used in soaps. If you are into soap making you can find recipes online or you can simply purchase premade soaps that use the oil

I mainly use it to make body lotion and creams. Periodically will use on my hands and feet. I've had the same container at least a year now ... and it is at least half full. A little bit goes a long way!

In theory, I suppose it would. But have not tried it. I liked the comment about using it to put some lotion on that you don't want to have on your hands while sleeping in case you rub your eyes. I use a lot of Tiger Balm on my shoulders and back, which is very effective but also very aromatic. This would be a good use for it. It is likely to reach your feet to place the lotion there, but would not feel like a massage for your feet. Sometimes, just having lotion is a relief, regardless of the massaging aspect. Go for it!

Sure... This unique body kit consists of Moroccan Argan Oil herbal oils blend body lotion and body oil... The body cream is an extremely light textured lotion which designed to penetrate the dermis layer and revive dry, cracked, irritated or sensitive skin. The body oil is a rich natural complex to soothe the skin and provide all the necessary vitamins, minerals and fatty acids it needs... So, basically, this body Argan kit is very much recommended to be used in cold windy dry places...

I wouldn't think so; these are better for a cream or sugar scrubs. I would use a mold for shea butter bars.

Yes! You can use it for anything that calls for coconut oil. I've made sugar scrubs with it as well.

I'm not sure if you would want to use this on body hair. It is strong and might burn your skin, or quite possibly burn your hair off for that matter.

Hi Isabel, the simple answer to your question is yes. The long answer to your question starts with a question, why would you? To heat the butter oil will break down the nutrient components in the oil and diminish the health benefits of the oil. The oil is best consumed at room temperature and with cod liver oil for the most synergistic effect. Hope that helps. :-)

It should work fine with any lotion. Is not a sponge but a leather applicator

It is possible. If you turn it to the max heat temp and use half hot and half cold you will have a very warm bath.

Oh, I don't know. I use it for lotion & shampoo. Try to contact the vendor, they should be able to tell you.

I doubt it. Based on it's amperage I don't think it would be warm enough. I just wash hands...

I absolutely wouldn't, sorry - I only use it on cold or warm things, not that hot. They will melt.

I used it in some lotion bars I made..however it was too strong...I recommend using the scented body oils for potions and soaps...

I really couldn't say as I have not used that product. However the body scrub does contain salt and oils, so it may be.

I would not recommend it. The density of peanut butter is too thick and sticky for this little motor. I use mine for making soaps, body butters, and healing skin balms. Mostly when mixing the oils or when I've got the soap batch mixing. As the soap batch gets thicker, however, it heats up quickly. If you have a Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer, it would handle the weight better. An odd idea that comes to mind if you buy your peanut butter in larger quantities is to get a food grade 2 gallon bucket and use a drill with a brand new paint mixing attachment. Good luck!
