Hi Hoyden.
I have only used it in the tube. I do really like it. It isn't greasy or anything but my skin feels nice and soft. I have only used it once though.
Question about lotion bars...
Re: Question about lotion bars...
I love lotion bars, too. It is so convenient to 'lotion up' in the shower, and I feel like more moisture is trapped in the skin. My skin is so much happier when I use them.

Re: Question about lotion bars...
I used the softer version this morning that came in a tube with the Mystery Adventure Club package and I REALLY love it! I wasn't sure how it would work because my house is rather chilly and I have arthritis...so in the morning my hands don't often work as well as I'd like them to...and a lot of oil based things solidify (like the coconut oil I use sometimes). But the formula stayed soft in the squeeze tube so it didn't take much effort to get the product out. Plus, it wasn't liquid like the other skin oils I've used, so none ended up coating the tub and creating a slip hazard! My skin is so soft right now, the winter itches have been driving me mad and this stuff soothed it!! So, um, yeah, I'd really love to be able to buy more, soon!
Oh...and I'm so glad it's made with rice bran oil instead of the wheat germ oil a lot of similar products use. I have a gluten allergy so all the yummy soothing lotions with oatmeal and wheat germ oil are a no-no for me... I've been trying out various oils to sooth my skin but the combination in this product seems to do better and last longer than anything I've come up with so far!

I tried the softer version that came in the MAC package, and I'm in love. I also don't always have hands that want to work well 1st thing in the am, but this was easy to use, and my skin flet so good afterwards. Can you make this in huge vats for sale?
Re: Question about lotion bars...
I´ve only used the solid version until now, and it leaves my skin so soft. Very nice.
But I think I might like the squeezy tube better, I had a bit of a problem using the bar without crushing it.

As previously noted, I loved the version in the squeeze tube the first time I used it. I then didn't use it for about a week and when I went to use it again, it had separated. I ended up with a handful of just oil. Once I shook it, it seemed better.
Re: Question about lotion bars...
My skin loved the solid lotion bar (in the deoderant-style packaging). Have the gone forever?

It's not gone forever- it just got a bit squishy on the shelves over the Summer and we didn't want to risk shipping it. It will be back in for the Christmas collection.
