Have you tried using a lotion bar? Yes, you read that right a lotion bar. Well if you haven’t tried North Coast Organics new Certified Organic, Vegan and Handmade Lotion Bars you don’t know what you are missing.
You all know I’m a HUGE FAN of North Coast Organics line of deodorants that include Death By Lavender, Revolver and Naked. I’ve never used a deodorant that stopped the stink, especially through an Arizona summer like North Coast Organics deodorants.
They sent me their new lotion bars to try out and once more I’m in love. I’ve used a different brand of lotion bar but it left something to be desired. North Coast Organics Lotion Bars are easy to rub in and leave my hands feeling soft and protected for hours. There is no weird film that some heavy-duty creams leave behind.
These handmade lotion bars come in Lemon, Floral and Untitled. I’ve always loved anything lemon scented and tried the Lemon Lotion Bar first. I love it. I usually put it on first thing in the morning and I love it’s clean, fresh scent. I was originally skeptical of the Floral bar but this is a nice, pleasant scent that is not perfume-y or overwhelming. Untitled may be my favorite though. It’s great for men or women. I use it every night. They are made from food grade products so you don’t have to worry if you 2 year old tries to eat one.
I’m the kind of person who uses lotion daily. When the cooler weather sets in my skin gets drier but these lotion bars will help keep my skin smooth and soft.

luminousvegansm says
I love lotion bars, especially for this time of year. There are so many with beeswax in them though so it’s nice to hear that a company is making vegan ones.
Holly says
Agreed! This is the first vegan bar I’ve seen! I admit, I’m in love with all of their products.
Sarah says
I love their molds!
Holly says
Sarah,
I forgot to mention that they don’t use nut oils. So many companies use nut oils so I have to be very careful with my little guy.
HudsonValleyHandymom says
This sounds like an awesome giveaway! Thank you, Sarah, for telling me about it!
cmb0096 says
I have never heard of a lotion bar before! I would love to try it. My skin is already starting to get soooo dry and my lotion isn’t cutting it.
To answer the question, I do use an organic/natural deodorant, but it isn’t cutting it. I should look into this brand. Thank you for the tip!
Courtney
Holly says
Courtney, I forgot to change the question from the last giveaway! I’ve updated it but THANK YOU for answering the question! I LOVE my North Coast Organics products!
Kristen says
I’ve never heard of a lotion bar! Sounds moisturizing!
Holly says
Kristen, you will love them! They smooth moisturized feeling lasts so much longer that traditional lotion!
The Vegan 8 says
These sound amazing Holly and such healthier alternative to traditional soaps!! Excited to enter!
Beth says
I was just noticing how dry my skin is! I guess I need to accept that summer is over and winter is around the corner.
Holly says
Me too Beth! I went on a trip last week and forgot my lotion bar, now that I’m home I have some skin repairs to tend to.
Jillian says
I have never tried a lotion bar but it looks like it would be really gentle.
Holly says
The ingredients are wonderful and you won’t find anything scary! You will love these lotion bars!
An Unrefined Vegan says
Have to admit my ignorance – I never even heard of lotion bars! I’m a heavy lotion user, however, so these sound very interesting. BTW, I’ve been using their Death by Lavender and love it!
Holly says
I’m so glad you love the Death By Lavender! I promote it like I own company stock but once you find such a great product you want to shout it from the roof tops!
You will love the lotion bars! They are perfect for hands and feet and work well on tough dry skin.
bee says
I have terrible dry skin in the winter. I’d love to try this!
Holly says
These are a little tough for whole body use, although it works well its just not as easy to use all over. I use it on dry spots and hands and feet. It works wonders.
brittany says
I use both lotion bars and natural deodorants!
Holly says
Yea Brittany! I’m glad you have already discovered them. Don’t forget to take advantage of the coupon code for 30% off!
Sarah says
i havent tried either!
Holly says
Oh Sarah I hope you win! You will love them both, especially as the weather gets cold and lotion becomes more important.
Dairy Free Betty says
I hope this is open to Canadians too because I would LOVE to try! I used to work at LUSH and loved their lotion bars – but they did leave a little bit of film! PICK ME pretty please!
Dairy Free Betty says
ps, for some reason I can’t log into twitter right now 🙁 But I promise to follow them when I do!!
Becca F says
I have tried a lotion bar! I have tried natural deodorant too but have yet to find one that works as I’m a sweaty girl
Holly says
Becca I hope you give North Coast Organics a try, I still sweat but I don’t stink. I’d be a little worried if I didn’t sweat though. Gotta get those toxins out somehow. 🙂
Rachel says
I have not tried a natural deodorant or a lotion bar. I have wanted to try natural deodorant, but I have been afraid it won’t work. I guess I won’t know unless I start trying it! I am going to look into north coast organics and see what else they offer! 🙂
Holly says
Rachel I was hesitant to try natural deodorant too. I live near Phoenix, AZ and I made the switch in the middle of summer when 115 degrees was typical. I am a believer! I hope you give it a try.
Iliana R says
I haven’t tried a lotion bar but I would love to!
Holly says
They are fantastic! I always change my mind about my favorite scent, my mood really dictates my preference I guess. I want to stock up so I have plenty of gifts available during the holidays.
Rosie says
I haven’t used either, but my skin is sensitive and I would love to use a quality product. These look soooo nice!
Holly says
Rosie, I’ve even used these on my little guys super sensitive skin with great results. He even asked for me to do it again.
Sara Leslie says
Vegan lotion?? Nice! I’d love to try this – thank you!!
Holly says
I hope you win Sarah! You’ll love these lotion bars!
ladycoop says
I have not tried a lotion bar and I do not use natural deodorant. I would love to give it a shot tho!
Mary says
I have never heard of them!
Holly says
Mary, You will love them! Every time the topic of deodorant comes up and gush about North Coast Organics, I can’t imagine trying another brand.
kelly mcgrew says
i have never used a lotion bar but loooks great!
Holly says
Kelly once you try it you will be a believer. They work so well. It’s now part of my beauty routine.
Brittany @WeHeartVegan says
I’ve never tried a lotion bar, but with winter coming I imagine it would definitely come in handy!! (:
Holly says
Brittany,
Put these Lotion Bars on your “must have” list for winter! They will keep your hands nice and smooth while everyone else suffers through dry, cracked skin.
E. Samples says
I use natural deodorant that I make myself. I haven’t tried lotion bars, but I have saved several DIY recipes and am eager to see what the hype is about. They seem like they’d be perfect to have around now that the weather is getting cooler. Would love to try this brand.
Holly says
I was so unsatisfied with traditional deodorant that I was getting ready to go the diy route but I’d rather buy. I’m so glad I found North Coast Organics. I’ve seen DIY lotion bars too but they weren’t vegan. I’m sure you could tweak the recipe but some things I’d rather buy, especially when I have a coupon. 🙂
Janell says
I’ve never used a natural deodorant, but I have tried lotion bars and love them! They don’t have the greasy feel that lots of bottled lotions have. We are in the process of transitioning to a plant-based/vegan diet right now, and I can tell you, we are never going back! 🙂
Holly says
Janell I’m so happy to hear you are transitioning to a plant-based diet. We won’t go back either but we sometimes make poor choices that we regret. After we got confident in our diet we wanted to be healthier in other areas including body care products. I get so excited when I find great companies like North Coast Organics that create quality, clean products.
Good luck in your transition, let me know if I can help.
Vunda V says
havent tried a lotion bar – i did use some natural deodorant once, it was pretty good
Holly says
Good luck with the giveaway Vunda!
Nicole says
I have never tried a lotion bar but would like to try one. I have very dry skin and hate applying lotion this looks like it would be really easy to apply.
Holly says
Nicole, These are very easy to apply. They have a spray lotion that I haven’t tried yet but I think it would be easier for whole body use but you can’t beat the lotion bars for your hands. Thanks for entering the giveaway!
Stacy Cox says
I do use natural deoderant but living in Arizona I worry that it’s not always cutting it!! I’m definitely going to try this brand. I have used lotion bars before and love the idea but the ones I tried seemed to greasy or filmy so I’d love to try these!
Holly says
Hi Stacy,
I totally understand! Living in Arizona I didn’t expect the deodorant to work so well. I still sweat but I never stink. The lotion bars work great! I don’t apply them to my whole body, usually just hands and feet or any rough areas. It would be tough to rub them everywhere. My hands feel so much better now.
Mahdi says
I’ve never tried a lotion bar before. I must say I’m quite intrigued.
april says
I have never tried a lotion bar but I would love to! My skin gets very dry in the winter.
mysweetiepiepie says
No, I haven’t tried either but would like to.
Amanda Thomas says
I currently use Schmidt’s natural deodorant and have never tried or even heard of a lotion bar so I’m definitely intrigued.
Holly says
Amanda, I may have tried Schmidt’s Natural Deodorant, but I’d have to check. If it’s the right one I loved the smell but it wasn’t effective enough for me. You will be really happy with the lotion bars, good luck on the giveaway.
Vera K says
I have not tried either!
SUMMER PLEWES says
i have never used either, but I have thought about trying to make my own soaps, the process scares me a little. I’m a little timid
Holly says
Me too Summer, It seems overwhelming. I don’t want to waste money on a ton of ingredients if I don’t like the end product. I’ve never gone wrong with North Coast Organics. They make superior products!
Kelsey says
I’ve never heard of a lotion bar… it sounds awesome and would love to try! 🙂
Holly says
You will love it Kelsey! It will keep your hands in great shape all winter! Every winter I deal with dry, cracked hands but not this year.
shanbogen says
I’ve never tried, but always wanted to try natural deodorant 🙂
Holly says
I’ve tried a few other natural deodorants but this is my far the best. I’ve considered giving away deodorants as gifts just so people would try them. Thanks for stopping by and good luck!
Lori Rowland says
Never heard of a lotion bar! Always looking for healthy, vegan, organic products!!
Holly says
Me too Lori. I love trying new products and getting recommendations from people I trust. I hate spending money on a new product if it doesn’t meet my expectations. Good luck!
Lydia Claire says
I haven’t tried either but the lotion bar sounds interesting to try.
Candy says
Oh yes, natural deodorant is WAY better than store-bought toxins! I either use that or none at all. (Yeah, gross I know) 😛
And when I used to sell soap at the farmer’s market, I had the idea to make lotion bars to sell, but life got too busy…
Holly says
Hi Candy,
I know what you mean, I have way more ideas than I have time to work on. I occasionally go without deodorant too, if I’m going to stay home all day I leave it off. I hope you try North Coast Organics, it’s a great product. Good luck on the giveaway!
Chelsea Ortiz says
I actually use North Coast Organics Death by Lavendar!
Holly says
Yea Chelsea! I love it! I hope you try the lotion bars next! They are amazing!
readysetveg says
I have tried lotion bars before and they are heavenly!
Em @ Love A Latte says
My skin is starting to get so dry for the colder weather and I absolutely love the idea of using a natural vegan product! 🙂
