MadeOn Skin Care Products Review and Giveaway
MadeOn Bee Silk Hard Lotion
I’m one of those rare folks who use very few skin care products. The ones that I do use are single ingredient products or contain very few ingredients. And those ingredients are not chemicals, so there’s no need to decipher unpronounceable terms and determine if such ingredients are gluten free or not. I am often contacted by skin care company representatives and friends who have become independent distributors for such companies. As much as I want to support my friends in such endeavors, when I look at the ingredients and see mostly chemicals, especially ones like cancer-causing parabens, I have to decline. So it’s wonderful when I don’t have to decipher ingredients and can recommend wonderful, naturally gluten-free skin care products like MadeOn Skin Care products.
MadeOn Skin Care products are ones that I can wholeheartedly recommend. It’s a family run business that was started by Renee Harris as a solution to heal her own dry, cracked, and, as a result, pain-ridden hands. You can watch Renee talk about her company and her products via YouTube here. I’ve been using MadeOn products for over a year now and even gave several MadeOn Skin Care gift packs to family members for Christmas last year. I love that the gift packs come in small muslin tote bags. Just tie on a gift tag and/or pretty red ribbon and you’re all set! I also gave some of the hair butter to a dear friend with super curly hair; she loves the product.
Let’s talk about the specifics on the products themselves a moment.
Hard lotion means lotion that is solid at room temperature. It warms and softens from one’s body temperature and once softened is easily applied. Hard lotion is designed to specifically protect hands and feet from cracked skin and extreme dry skin. It’s this product that I use the most. I keep a bar at work. I keep a bar in my nightstand. I have a travel size that gets thrown in my toiletries bag. Hard lotion is my “go to” solution for “winter feet” and also makes for prettier summer “sandal feet.”
What’s in the hard lotion? In the standard Bee Silk hard lotion, you’ll find shea butter, coconut oil, and beeswax. That’s it! You know I love the beeswax factor, and it’s the beeswax that helps hold in the moisture once applied. In the Au Chocolat version, you’ll find cocoa butter, coconut oil, and beeswax. It will come as no surprise to those who know me well that I love this one. You can guess why!
The hair butter contains shea butter, coconut oil, beeswax, and orange essential oil, and my friend loved it! There are some great testimonial videos on the hair butter on the MadeOn website, too.
There’s also lip balm, diaper rash cream, bug block, goat milk soap, and much more. There are even DIY kits so you can make your own skin care products!

The hard lotion sounds fabulous! Thanks for the tip for an awesome company!!
I recently found this product and many great others, by ordering the e-book giveaway. That was an awesome deal. I ordered a kit to make my own, and free tinted lip balm, and sample of Bee Silk. THIS IS AWESOME! I could actually rub on my elbows and heels and feel the difference.
Hope to ein this and some other awesome items.
Shea butter, coconut oil & beeswax–& nothing else–sounds AMAZING! My skin has been so irritated!
I actually made bars with her kit last year, but would really like to try the cocoa…
I have a bar of the MadeOn Au Chocolate Hard Lotion and I love it! I would like to win so I can try some of the other products.
We would use the hard lotion the most. I am purchasing it for a gift for my husband, he gets horribly cracked skin in the winter and the less ingredients the better for a great healing lotion.
The lotion in a tin sounds amazing! Thanks for the chance to win!
Already liked on Facebook (my username on Facebook is Amy Marie).
I would like to try the Hard Lotion. I always have cracks on my fingers.
Hard butter sounds like a great product! My whole family would probably benefit from the lip balm.

I want to try it all! With two of us in the family with sensitive skin, fewer ingredients = BETTER! I like the idea of the hard lotion bars. the Bug Block would be great to send with a kid to camp, too, and to pack in the baseball equipment bag. Au Chocolat – that one must smell and feel amazing.

My mother has had problems for years with dry cracked hands and even her head to the point of bleeding. These products, particularly the hair butter, sound perfect for her, since we have so much gluten intolerance in the family.
I would love to try this product. I think the Bee Silk would be best for my family.
I dont use many products but the hard lotion sounds great. I dont use alot of lotion because of allergies, chemicals in them. This one sounds great and easy to travel with and also the lip balm. My husband uses lip balm and finding a good clean product that is awesome.
I’d love to try the hair butter for my curly/frizzy hair. I’d love the DIY kit as well so I can make a bunch of bars for myself and friends!
I tweeted the giveaway
This time of year is perfect for lip balm but I confess I’m curious about the hair butter. Thanks for the chance to win.
Merry Christmas Shirley!

The Hard Lotion interests me very much! I love the clean and natural ingredients. My girls would love those lip balms. Most lip products are banished here.

I keep a bar of hard lotion in my desk- I love it! I’m never too far away from lip balm either, especially in the winter.
Hi Shirley, I recently bought a bar of the hard lotion and love it! Works great on my heels and hands that start to crack as the weather gets colder and colder.
My family and I would definitely love the Hard Lotion – we have dry skin and I am tired of chemical filled lotions. This sounds perfect! I’d also enjoy the lip balm – I don’t wear make-up so the tinted ones would jazz up my lips a bit

Love hard lotion! Thank you
The lip balms and the Au Chocolat hard lotion sound amazing. I can’t wait to try some of the Beesilk Jr on my toddler. I have to say that all the products sound fantastic and am hard pressed to choose just one.
I love the pocket size! I have had several hard lotions and love the way they work. I would love to try this.
I have been making my own deodorant, lip balm, and sugar scrubs lately with pretty much the same ingredients: coconut oil, shea butter, coconut oil, beeswax, and also cocoa butter (and some essential oils too)… I love feeling good about what I am putting on our bodies! Great review!
Bee Silk sounds great for winter skin.
This super curly haired girl might just love their hair butter! It all sounds lovely. Great giveaway, Shirley. Hope you are doing well.
