Skin Crème Sticks

This solid moisturizer bar was the first product Bee Naturals ever made. Olive oil, unbleached beeswax, coconut oil, and vitamin E melt into rough, dry, cracked skin and set into a water-resistant barrier that holds through several handwashings. Twist up the stick, apply two to three times a day, and one 1 oz bar lasts at least five months. A 2 oz stick lasts for nearly a year.

Relieves rough, dry, cracked skin from the first swipe.
Seals moisture under a water-resistant beeswax barrier.
Outlasts lotion because the barrier survives the sink.
Applies straight from a twist-up stick, so palms stay clean.
Travels as a solid that clears TSA and holds shape in heat.

Lotion is mostly water. It feels good for a few minutes, then washes off at the first sink. Hands that work all day need the opposite: concentrated oils and waxes that stay where you put them. That is what this stick is, and it is the formula Bee Naturals was founded on.

How It Works

First, you wash and dry your hands, twist up the bar, and rub it on until the skin feels slightly tacky. Next, the warmth of your skin melts the olive and coconut oils into every crack and rough patch. Then beeswax and carnauba wax set into a breathable, water-resistant layer over that moisture. Meanwhile, vitamin E  condition the skin underneath. Finally, the tackiness fades within a few minutes, and the layer keeps working through several handwashings.

Triple-Action Barrier Care System

  1. Melt & Moisturize: Pure olive and coconut oils are solid at rest and melt on contact with warm skin. Because the formula contains no water, every swipe is concentrated moisture, and a small amount covers more skin than you expect.
  2. Seal & Shield: Unbleached beeswax and carnauba wax lock that moisture under a durable, breathable layer that helps shield skin from hard water, detergents, and grime. One reviewer describes it as invisible gloves, and the comparison fits.
  3. Condition & Soften: Vitamin E and wheat germ oil work under the barrier to soothe rough, cracked skin and soften its look. Applied two to three times a day, it keeps hardworking hands and heels smooth through winter and summer alike.

Olive Oil & Coconut Oil

These two pure oils are the moisturizing heart of the bar. Both melt at skin temperature and sink concentrated hydration into dry, cracked areas. The formula contains no water, so nothing dilutes what reaches your skin with each swipe.

Unbleached Beeswax

The Bee Naturals signature, kept unbleached and natural. Beeswax forms the breathable layer that seals moisture in and keeps detergents and grime out, and it does this while still letting the skin underneath function normally.

Carnauba Wax

The hardest natural wax there is, harvested from Brazilian palm leaves. Carnauba gives the bar its solid structure so it survives a hot car, and it adds the water resistance that lets the barrier hold where lotion rinses away.

Vitamin E 

The conditioning pair working beneath the barrier. Tocopherol acetate, which is vitamin E, to soothe rough, cracked, hardworking skin and soften how it looks and feels day to day.

Castor Bean Oil

A thick, glossy plant oil that helps the bar glide onto skin instead of dragging. Castor oil also extends the staying power of the barrier, which is part of why one application keeps working where thinner products quit.

Olive Oil (Olea Europaea), Unbleached Beeswax (Cera Alba), Coconut Oil (Cocos Nucifera), Castor Bean Oil (Ricinus Communis), Carnauba Wax (Copernicia Cerifera), Tocopherol Acetate (Vitamin E), Essential Oils and Fragrances (varies by scent; Unscented contains no added scent).

When to Apply

  • Two to three times daily for best results
  • Right after washing and drying your hands
  • At bedtime for overnight heel and hand care
  • Before dishes, gardening, or winter chores

How to Apply

  1. Wash and dry: Cleanse hands or the affected area and pat dry. The barrier works best when it seals over clean skin.
  2. Twist up the bar: Raise the stick a small amount. This concentrated formula needs far less than you would use of a lotion.
  3. Apply directly to skin: Glide the bar over hands, heels, elbows, or any rough spot until the area feels slightly tacky.
  4. Massage it in: Work the crème into the skin. The tackiness subsides within a few minutes and the barrier stays behind.
  5. Let it keep working: Skip the reapply after every wash. The water-resistant layer holds through several trips to the sink.

Pro Tips

  • Apply to just the backs of hands to keep palms work-ready
  • Swipe heels at bedtime, then cover with socks
  • Doubles as a lip balm and cuticle conditioner
  • Layer under a hand crème as a sealing base coat
  • The solid form counts as a non-liquid in carry-on bags
  • Keep one at the kitchen sink and another by the bed

Application Notes

  • For external use only
  • Contains wheat germ oil, so note wheat allergies
  • Contains beeswax, so avoid it with bee product allergies
  • Unscented still carries the natural aroma of its base oils
  • Slight tackiness on application is normal and fades

This product is perfect for treating and protecting:

  • Cracked, hardworking hands: One reviewer, a nurse who washes constantly, applies it to the raw backs of her hands and works her whole shift without reapplying.
  • Dry, cracked heels: A bedtime swipe softens summer cracking and winter roughness. Several reviewers call it the best heel product they have found.
  • Psoriasis- and eczema-prone dryness: The rich occlusive barrier may help comfort severely dry, flaky patches. One customer of many years credits it with helping her psoriasis.
  • Outdoor and trade work: One long-time user shoveled snow and spread ice salt for years with this as his only hand protection, and it outlasted every lotion he tried.
  • Travel-parched skin: The solid bar clears airport security, cannot leak in a bag, and replaces separate hand, foot, and body products for the whole trip.
  • Elbows, knees, and rough patches: Anywhere skin turns scaly gets the same melt-in moisture and lasting seal, applied without touching the product.

Best For

  • Dry, cracked skin: Concentrated relief where lotions fall short
  • Frequent handwashers: The barrier survives several trips to the sink
  • Hardworking trades: Protection for hands that earn their keep
  • Psoriasis and eczema: May help soothe and support very dry skin
  • Travelers: Solid, spill-proof, and carry-on friendly
  • All skin types: Gentle enough for sensitive skin daily
  • Not for: Anyone with wheat or bee product allergies

What are Skin Crème Sticks and how are they different from lotion?

Skin Crème Sticks are solid moisturizer bars in a twist-up tube, and they were the first product Bee Naturals ever formulated. Lotion is mostly water, which is why it rinses off at the first handwash. This bar contains no water at all. The oils and waxes melt into your skin and set into a water-resistant layer that keeps working through several washes.

Do Skin Crème Sticks really help with cracked hands and heels?

This is what they were made for, and the 31 reviews are specific about it. A nurse who washes between every patient applies it to the raw backs of her hands and gets through her shift. One reviewer watched the cracks on her hands close up within a few days. Several others call it the best thing they have found for dry heels. Two to three applications a day is the routine that works.

Are Skin Crème Sticks good for psoriasis or eczema?

The occlusive barrier may help comfort the severe dryness these conditions bring. One customer has used it for over a decade and credits it with helping her psoriasis, and this was the formula that started the company. It is a moisturizer rather than a medical treatment, so keep following any care plan from your dermatologist alongside it.

What scents do Skin Crème Sticks come in?

Eight varieties: Vanilla, Rosewood, Rosemary, Mango, Honeysuckle, Almond, Lavender, and Unscented. Lavender, Rosemary, and Unscented suit people who want less scent in their day. Honeysuckle, Almond, Vanilla, and Rosewood lean sweeter. One honest note about Unscented: it has no added fragrance, but you may still notice the natural smell of the base oils and beeswax.

How long does one Skin Crème Stick last?

One 2 oz bar lasts three to five months of regular use. A waterless concentrate goes much further per swipe than lotion, and because the barrier survives several handwashings, you apply less often too. Two to three times a day covers even hardworking hands. Reviewers regularly mention keeping the same routine for years.

Will Skin Crème Sticks feel greasy or sticky?

There is a brief tackiness right after application while the barrier sets, and it fades within a few minutes. After that the skin feels smooth and dry to the touch. Reviewers consistently mention the lack of greasy residue. The twist-up stick also means your palms only touch the product if you want them to.

Can I travel with Skin Crème Sticks in a carry-on?

Yes, and travelers may be the product's biggest fans. A solid does not count against TSA liquid limits and cannot leak in a bag. One Florida reviewer points out that it stays firm in heat that turns coconut oil jars to soup. One stick covers hands, feet, and body for the whole trip.

Why don't Skin Crème Sticks need preservatives?

Preservatives exist to control microbes in water, and this formula contains no water at all. A pure blend of oils and waxes does not support bacterial growth, so the stick stays safe and hygienic on its own. The solid-bar format earns its preservative-free label through chemistry rather than marketing.

Who are Skin Crème Sticks best for?

Anyone whose hands or heels work harder than lotion can handle. The brand's own list runs from health care professionals and cooks to mechanics, carpenters, gardeners, potters, knitters, and parents. It suits all skin types, including sensitive. Skip it if you have a wheat allergy, because of the wheat germ oil, or a bee product allergy, because of the beeswax.

What makes Skin Crème Sticks special?

  • The first Bee Naturals formula, still going after decades
  • Contains no water, so every swipe is pure moisturizer
  • Water-resistant barrier outlasts several handwashings
  • One bar covers three to five months of daily care
  • Twist-up stick keeps your palms clean
  • Preservative-free because a waterless formula needs none
  • Eight varieties: seven scents plus an unscented bar
  • Solid bar clears TSA and holds shape in heat
  • 31 reviews from nurses, trades, and travelers
  • Made in USA in small batches
  • Cruelty-free and never tested on animals

Great product

Love this for travel. It’s unscented, which is what I was looking for. It’s a solid so if you travel light that is very useful. Love that it is multi use, great as a body, foot and hand lotion in one.

This is a true delight! I tried a Bee Naturals product courtesy of Beautytap.com and loved it (cuticle oil) so I felt compelled to try this since it was the first product Bee Naturals created. It does not disappoint. The texture isn't waxy or sticky, and it has healed the cracks on my hands in just a few short days. I purchased the "Almond" scent, and it smells just like I expected it would. This will be a staple in my skincare routine going forward. Very nice!

I've had it 24 hours and am already obsessed! I can't live without my peeper keeper and have been struggling a lot with dry hands so I wanted to try other products, and wow is it amazing. I use this as a base in conjunction with the Ultra-Rich Hand Creme and my skin is just drinking it up! It also makes moisturizing dry arms and legs so quick and easy because of the deodorant style container. So thrilled to have found another forever product from Bee Naturals <3

Works well, but lack of natural beeswax smell

This works very well and absorbs quickly for a beeswax lotion bar, but I don't care for the scent -- I should've checked other reviews more closely as I see others have said the same. However, I don't think it's a plastic scent, but castor oil or something. And it also seemed stronger when I first started using it, so maybe I've gotten used to it now -- but it's not something I enjoy on my hands, which is why I purchased it.It works very well on my feet and legs though, so I'm happy it's in such a convenient form for that and I'll continue using it nightly as it's made a huge difference in my skin this dry winter! If I repurchase though, I'll try a scented one though as those seem to be better

This is super easy to apply to legs and arms

I love this type of applicator for cream. It's so much easier than screwing off a lid and spreading a cream with my hands, but I got the "unscented" version of this and is smells chemically and weird. My husband wouldn't come near me when I was wearing it so it's headed for the trash. I will say it does a great job of moisturizing my legs in particular, but the smell just won't pass muster.

Bees are great!

The beeswax protects my very dry hands and seems to last even after a hand washiing. Nice and compact for my purse so I'm never without something to soothe the dryness. I'm glad I tried it and will purchase it again!

This stick works great, because I can apply to just the backs ...

I have to wash my hands often in my job. The backs of my hands get raw and bleeding. But I can't be putting lotion on all the time and still do my job. This stick works great, because I can apply to just the backs of my hands and leave the rest of my hands free to work. It also works longer than a lotion does, because it is sort of waxy and doesn't come right off. It really works great!

Very nice lotion with a good container. I love the subtle scent and the feel of the lotion. My favorite part is why I bought it... how easy it is to apply! Highly recommended.

Makes your skin feel like gold! Smells WONDERFUL!!

What I was searching for was a product that would leave my skin nice and moist, with no sticky residue. What I was looking for was a product that would smell nice, but not perfumy or overwhelmingly fake. What I was looking for was a product that would last for several hours (because really, who HONESTLY believes a product will last 24 hours?). What I was looking for was a product that was not made of a million chemicals I couldn't pronounce, yet alone would do who knows what to my general health.I FINALLY FOUND THAT PRODUCT!When I was searching, I found over a hundred different types of products that claimed to do it all. Make your skin soft. Heal you. Go deep into your pores and nourish. The same rhetoric. The prices ranged from $2.00 to $50.00. Why would prices range so crazily if they all claimed to do the same thing? With Bee Naturals Best Skin Cream Stick, I opened the lid and unlocked the most refreshing scent (I chose honeysuckle). Once I rubbed the cream onto my skin, and worked it in a little, this little wonder soaked right into my elbows creating a seal of freshness. It left no residue (so I'm not sure what all of the other reviewers were talking about). It had the most pleasant scent, and I was able to carry on with my day as normal. When I got home from work, roughly 14 hours later, I could still slightly smell the aroma of sweet honeysuckle, and my skin was still protected and silky smooth.While I did receive this item at a great discount for my honest review, I can't rave about it any more! I think this is a beyond wonderful product and would recommend it to EVERYONE! I now keep this in my purse for whenever I might need it. I absolutely love this cream stick and pretty soon will order more to have the entire collection of different scents! Thank you for offering this product!

Super moisturizing and convenient

This product actually exceeded my expectations. I purchased it mainly to use as a carrier oil/skin protection for when I apply my essential oils as a perfume on my inner elbows and behind my knees and ears. This worked beautifully. I apply the stick to those areas and then dab usually peppermint oil on the part of my skin that has the product. My skin was protected from the irritation that the strong peppermint oil can deliver. I bought the unscented version of the skin creme stick so it would not interfere with my essential oils. I was unaware that the unscented version would still have a fragrance to it. The scent is very faint. It smells lightly of honey. It is hardly noticeable but altogether pleasant.I decided my horrifically cracked heals could use the product also. It really moisturized that nasty bit of flesh. Which is good for onlookers since I'm a Florida girl who almost exclusively wears open toed and backless shoes. After applying the product I rubbed it in well. I then went to wash my hands but the product was still coating my hands a bit- this turned out to be an unexpected bonus since my 85 year old man-hands are a tad bit out of place on this 33 year old woman's body. I then went all out and used the product on my knees and elbows. Even my ashen arms got an application. It wasn't too heavy of a feel because it can spread well. Probably also because my parched skin soaked it up quickly.I've been a fan of coconut oil in the past because my skin loves it and I love how natural it is. However, it's so impractical to put coconut oil in a container to bring in my purse since the slightest temperature increase liquified the substance. THIS product, thankfully, remains solid even when warm so this stick can go in my purse and gym bag-wherever I would normally bring lotion. I'm a convert now.I have provided this honest feedback in exchange for a reduced price on this product. This review constitutes a fair and legitimate evaluation.

Great for Needs When Liquid Lotion is Not Ideal

Having traditional lotion readily available is great and is the go-to method of moisturizing. But in certain occasions where lotion is not ideal, this would be the best choice.Let me explain why I like this and why it is great for me. I am a person who prefers to travel with just a carry-on. I avoid having to check in my bag if at all possible. It make traveling a lot easier so I don't have to wait at baggage for check in, then wait at baggage claim upon arrival, and struggle carrying a large load while traveling. I like zipping in and out of the airport and getting to my destination fast. So with the TSA carry-on liquid limit, I bring this in place of my lotion, so I can make space for other liquid items. Very convenient.Another reason why I like to use this is that it really does work for chapped/ashy skin and it really does last through a few washes. I have bad dry hands that are ashy in between each finger and I apply this once in the beginning of the day, and after a few washes my hands still dont look dry,The consistency of this product is straight up like lip balm. Its hard and waxy and leaves the same sticky residue a waxy lip balm would, but it does lasts for a while.With that said, this product is not something you can use anywhere at anytime, but its great for specific needs.Since I only need to apply this once or twice a day, I imagine I will be using this for a while. Let's hope that the uses I get out of this can justify the expensive retail price.FYI I received this product at a discounted price in exchange for my honest review.

Perfect for hands and smells wonderful

I am a registered nurse and a mother of twins, both of whom are autistic, one severely and still not toilet trained at the age of 9. Needless to say, I have to wash my hands and bathe my son a lot, which makes my hands extremely dry and itchy. I heard about hard lotion sticks, and even planned to make my own but have never done it, so I decided to purchase already made one, especially since it is made with beeswax which I love.Bee Naturals Best Skin Cream Stick arrived promptly in the container that stick deodorants come. Except it is a cream, not a deodorant. It is thick, solid cream that melts due to the warmth of the skin. It is almost like a balm. The cream stick is cream in color and has a pleasant honeysuckle scent which is not too strong but quite noticeable. It was easy to apply the cream to my hands and, to my surprise, did not leave any greasy residue, despite having several oils among the ingredients. I did not feel any stickiness either, at least not more than most of my regular hand creams leave. However, the product left a protective barrier on my hands, like invisible gloves, that prevents my hand from drying out. Since it is made with beeswax, as opposed to the petroleum based cream, it allows skin to breathe and does not suffocates it under its protective layer. I thought about using this on my feet as well, which would work just fine but I will not be able to smell this wonderful honeysuckle scent that I quite like, so I will stick to using it on my hands only. Actually, it would moisturize any area of dry skin and will form a protective barrier over it without restricting the oxygen supply to it. Bee Naturals cream stick works really well for me and as such, it deserves no less than 5 stars. I received it at a discounted price in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Softer hands

I was really excited to try this handcream. I love the seller let you choose which that you would like to have as I don't like some flowery scents. The product and is a very nice container and arrived quickly. It smells amazing when you opened it. I selected the Allman sent and it smelled exactly like I expected it to. I first applied it to my hands as they were really dry. It Went on well and smooth and my hands were noticeably softer. The only thing I didn't like is the almond scent and I love so much turned to a perfume scent which I didn't like as much. It went away soon so was not very long to smell it. The product made my hands soft and not dry. It was not sticky or greasy. I was given this product to review for my fair and honest opinion. I like this product but wish the scent didn't change.

Excellent product

Love the ingredients in this skin stick. I ordered this to keep in my purse while I am not at home. Two of my favorite ingredients: the olive and coconut oil that are in this stick is what I believe makes it such a wonderful product. I rubbed this on my hands 3 different times during the day and it left my hands feeling so much softer. I love the ingredients and I love the product. I really like that it is used just like a stick deodorant. You can twist it up or down. It did not melt in my purse while running errands in the hot Florida sun either. I would definitely buy again.
