I haven't but I do use it on my face and then put my face lotion on afterwards. It tends to soften the stickiness.

I use it in my homemade lotions. You can get info from wellnessmama.com and diynatural.com. It is amazing for sore muscles. Hope this helps :)

I'm guessing it depends on the thickness of the lotion; I suspect the motor is not designed to dispense very thick liquids, but should work with most normal lotions....

I don't see why not. I personally have not, but I've tried it just about everywhere else and haven't had any irritation at all. My chest felt a little dry one time, but nothing a little lotion can't fix.

I have not tried to do that. I mix it with my favorite lotion, before I go outside in the yard. I took it to Europe last year and it really worked.

Totally... It's super fine and is great for drawing out impurities in the skin. I used it to make a facial soap bar and have had great results!

I haven't, but I do use for at home spray tans. I'm starting to spray more family and friends and I am very pleased with it. The first one I ordered however, the pressure switch didn't work. We contacted the company and they shipped another one to me.

I have not tried that, but it does work with Bath and Body works cream. I do prefer to add a bit of body massage oil to it.

No, at least not the one I bought. It could go through a pump I think BUT it's a bit thicker. I just scoop it out with my fingers...it's more a cream than a lotion. It is really nice stuff!

hardlotion.com/diy-hard-lotion-kit/ has some very good recipes for making several different lotions.

Yes! I have used it to make lotion, lotion bars, and lip balm. Love it! It does have a rich chocolate scent that is impossible to cover, so don't try. Use Shea butter instead. But the chocolate scent works really well combined with peppermint or orange. Basic recipe is equal parts butter (Shea or Cocoa) and an oil (coconut, olive) with beeswax (amount determines how firm the product will be). Best way to test a recipe is to start with small amounts, place ingredients in a small jelly jar, and heat in a pan of water until everything melts. Remove from heat, let sit for a few minutes and then stir in essentials oils if using. The jar becomes your storage container, so you don't have any cleanup.

I used mine in lotion. I had to melt it down to allow it to mix with the other oils. It does harden again.

I've only used it for candles. Since it is hard at room temperature, you couldn't use it in lotions or liquids. Maybe balms or lip balms. Google it.

Not me. I use it to only make a topical (rub) solution to massage into sore, stiff muscles. Sorry...

I used it in some lotion bars I made..however it was too strong...I recommend using the scented body oils for potions and soaps...

Yes - and I love how easy it is. However, the lotion I use (Cornhuskers Lotion) isn't as thick as some. I would guess you could not use a really thick lotion.
