The original Bee Naturals product, trusted since 1992. This solid crème bar delivers immediate relief for rough, dry skin with pure olive oil, unbleached beeswax, coconut oil, and castor bean oil. Water-resistant and preservative-free, one two-ounce bar lasts two to three months. Use daily on hands, heels, and elbows for soft, protected skin.

Constant hand washing, hard water, and rough work strip the skin's natural oils faster than they can rebuild. Lotions with high water content often evaporate before they help. This solid crème bar takes the opposite approach: concentrated oils and waxes with no added water, formulated by a registered nurse in 1992 to rescue her own cracked, working hands.
How It Works
First, warmth from your skin softens the bar so the oils release as you massage it in. Next, olive, coconut, and castor bean oils sink into rough, dry areas to nourish and soften on contact. Then, unbleached beeswax and carnauba wax form a breathable protective coating over the skin. Meanwhile, that coating resists water, so moisture stays sealed in through several washes. Finally, vitamin E and wheat germ oil condition the skin between uses, helping prevent future dryness.
Triple-Action Solid Care System
Pure Olive Oil (Olea Europaea Fruit Oil)
The heart of the original 1992 formula. Olive oil is rich in fatty acids and squalene that closely match the skin's own lipids, so it absorbs readily to nourish and soften rough, dry areas. It has been trusted for skin care for centuries and remains the foundation of this bar.
Unbleached Beeswax (Cera Alba)
Kept in its natural, unbleached state, beeswax gives the bar its solid form and creates the breathable protective coating that seals in moisture. It helps the formula stay on the skin through several hand washes, defending dry, cracked areas from water and weather.
Coconut Oil (Cocos Nucifera Oil)
A deeply moisturizing plant oil that melts at skin temperature, helping the bar glide on smoothly. Its fatty acids nourish dry skin and support the lipid barrier, leaving hands, heels, and elbows feeling soft and conditioned rather than greasy or waxy after application.
Castor Bean Oil (Ricinus Communis Seed Oil)
A thick, cushioning oil prized for rich hydration on very dry, cracked skin. It helps soften rough patches and supports the skin as it recovers from dryness, adding a smooth, protective slip to the bar that makes it easy to massage into cuticles, knuckles, and heels.
Wheat Germ Oil (Triticum Vulgare Germ Oil)
One of nature's richest sources of vitamin E, this golden oil delivers antioxidants alongside nourishing fatty acids. Together with the tocopheryl acetate in the formula, it helps condition dry skin and supports a healthy-looking skin surface with regular daily use.

Does the Bee Naturals Skin Crème Bar work for cracked hands?
Yes, that is exactly what it was created for. Olive, coconut, and castor bean oils help soften and soothe cracked, dry skin on contact, while beeswax and carnauba wax seal in moisture with a protective coating that holds up through several hand washes.
Is the Skin Crème Bar really Bee Naturals' first product?
Yes. The Skin Crème Bar is the original Bee Naturals product, made since 1992, when founder Barbara Chappuis, a registered nurse, developed it to rescue her own hands, which were cracked and raw from constant washing and harsh hospital chemicals. It has been the brand's signature ever since.
How long does one Bee Naturals Skin Crème Bar last?
One two-ounce bar typically lasts two to three months with regular daily use. Because the formula contains no water, every gram is concentrated oils and waxes, so a thin layer goes a long way on hands, cuticles, heels, and elbows.
Why doesn't the Skin Crème Bar need preservatives?
The bar is anhydrous, meaning it contains no water. Bacteria need water to grow, so the formula does not support bacterial growth and stays fresh without preservatives. That keeps the ingredient list short: oils, waxes, vitamin E, and scent.
Is the Bee Naturals Skin Crème Bar waterproof?
It is water-resistant. The beeswax and carnauba wax coating stays effective even after several hand washes, sealing moisture in while you work. Reapply after repeated washing or harsh conditions to renew the protective layer.
What scents does the Skin Crème Bar come in?
Options include Honeysuckle, Almond, Vanilla, Rosewood, Lavender, Rosemary, and an Unscented bar. The Honeysuckle, Almond, Vanilla, and Rosewood bars use perfume-grade synthetic fragrances; Lavender and Rosemary are scented with essential oils, and Unscented contains no added scent.
Can I use the Skin Crème Bar on my feet and elbows?
Yes. It is ideal for hands, cuticles, heels, elbows, and any patch of rough, dry skin. For calloused heels, apply a layer at bedtime and cover with socks; the concentrated oils work overnight to soften thick, dry skin.
Is the Bee Naturals Skin Crème Bar good for people who wash their hands constantly?
It was invented for exactly that. Health care professionals, cooks, homemakers, mechanics, gardeners, potters, beauticians, and daycare workers all rely on it because the water-resistant coating protects skin between washes and reapplication takes seconds.
Does the Skin Crème Bar contain wheat?
Yes, the formula includes wheat germ oil, a rich natural source of vitamin E. If you have a wheat allergy, choose a different product or consult your doctor before use. As always, check the ingredient list on your package for the most current formula.
What makes the Bee Naturals Skin Crème Bar special?
This all-natural moisturizing bar effectively heals dry, cracked hands and fingertips. Customers said it "moisturizes for hours, even through multiple hand washing" and is "great for those with eczema." The product lasts long with pleasant scents. One customer found application difficult, noting it doesn't glide on easily.
Bee Naturals Skin Crème Bar
This is the only thing that I have found, to heal my cracked fingertips, caused by the Winter combined with frequently having my hands in water
Thank you
I have not received my order yet and actually I was going to contact you today. Where is it? 14 days seems a bit long. Thank you Suzanne
Wonderful all natural skin crème bar.
Lasts a long time.
Smells amazing
Skin crème bar moisturizes for hours, even though multiple hand washing. Great for those with eczema.
Great product. Love it. Fast shipping.
I have been using this Skin Creme Bar for many years. This is the best product of its kind! There is really nothing that compares either in quality or price. They last a long time, and the good smell doesn't get rancid or old. I had to get three different aromas just so I could smell them! Thank you for such a great product.
All over the face for outdoor recreation. Wax is the thing.
I'm not really sure how I feel about this product yet. I had high hopes of it working so well after reading the reviews, but it's really hard to put on. It feels like a large chapstick but doesn't really glide on well and I am having to just keep rubbing with my index finger for minutes only to get it either absorbed on my finger or get very little bit out to put on my hands.
I bought the lavender. The scent is delicate, not too strong. I love this for my very dry skin.
I love this product and just bought it as a gift for a friend. About 1 year ago I was complaining that my hands were so chapped, it felt like there were invisible cuts between my fingers. My friend gave me this bar, and I spent the rest of the evening with it squeezed between my fingers. It was so soothing to my skin and felt so good! The next day I bought my first bar. I've used three of them and absolutely love applying it before bed every night. I like the unscented one, because it actually has a natural beeswax smell to it, which I really like.
I bought the Mango and love it. It doesn't leave my hands sticky. My hands are so soft after using this product.
Wish I had known about this a long time ago. I love it! It helps my dry chapped hands- I am washing my hands a lot so they really get dry and chapped. This product helps moisten and protect when I have to wash my hands so often.

I love this moisturizer, it feels so great in the skin ❤️
Nice and thick-this will last a long time. Pure ingredients. Makes my face feel and look soft and amazing!🤩
I love how it makes my face look and feel
This is truly the best toner I have come across! It makes my skin so bright, I always get compliments after a week or so of using it. It smells lovely, and doesn't have behind a sticky residue like some others do. I literally won't use any other toner!
I have suffered for years with extremely dry legs in all seasons. Plus I have a birthmark that dries until it bleeds. Other than Vaseline petroleum jelly, nothing has helped this area. This is the first product that has kept it healthy. I do have to apply it nearly every day but my legs feel healthier and looks healthier. The smell too is heavenly. I just love this product. Please don't stop making it. Highly recommend for all ages, not just babies if you have baby sensitive skin.
