Containers for Lotion Bars

[May]

How does everyone package their lotion Bars?
Where do you get your supplies?

I was looking for a small tin, because I thought it would protect the bar better and make it more transportable. But, if anyone has other suggestions, let me know please.

Thanks so much!

I don't sell, but I do gift my lotion bars to family and friends. I pour mine into MilkyWay-type decorative soap molds, pop them out when hard, and package them in cello bags with a pretty ribbon; and sometimes I pour them into those lotion bar tubes that look like over-sized lip balm tubes (MMS carries them: https://www.thesage.com/catalog/products/Lotion-Bar-Tubes.html )

One of the prettiest lotion bars I ever used came in a clear push up tube, like what some deodorants are in. It had some colours in it so was nice to look at. Also the weather permitted it being so,d that way.

Otherwise a tin would always be good, in case it melts a little, and so the buyer doesnt have to worry about where they are going to keep it.

Depending on how big your lotion bars are, there are these. They comes with labels as well. However, the window in the top, while sturdy enough, will pop through if you push really hard on it. I don't know how that would play in for your product or how you think people carry these.
