Mama Bee Nourishing Body Oil

The first product that I just HAVE to tell you about is Burt's Bees Mama Bee Nourishing Body Oil. Do not be fooled by its name, I believe Mama Bees will be happy to share. This oil absorbs right into your skin and leaves you smelling slightly like lemon drop candy. That fragrance actually comes from lemon oil. Delightful!

I have very sensitive skin that gets very dry and irritated in the wintertime. I am happy to report that the dry, itchy skin of winter has not reared its ugly head yet because it is no match for this oil. Our skin is more naturally inclined to absorb an oil than a lotion, so a little goes a long way.

The ingredient list reads like a recipe: lemon oil, almond oil, wheat germ oil, rosemary leaf extract, vitamin E...no scary stuff to be found. The price is right at roughly $8. I am no fortune teller, but you may be bidding "adios" to your favorite lotion after you try this amazing oil. I certainly did.

Burt's Bees Mama Bee Nourishing Body Oil can be purchased wherever you find other Burt's Bees products: Target, CVS, drugstore.com, and Burtsbees.com (just to name a few).

Welcome!

Welcome to my new blog! As mentioned in my profile, I have always "had a thing" for beauty products. Recently, I have learned that many of my favorite items contain ingredients that are pretty scary and harmful to our bodies! It was with dismay that I learned I needed healthy replacements for my tried and true favorites, but I knew it was time to "green up my act." I did not want to continue to use products that could be harming me.

So, I have simply made it my personal project to find products that are non-toxic AND fabulous. I have a great reason to try new items and discover new companies. (And if you know me, you know how much I love that!)

My goal with this blog is to share the treasures that I find along the way. If you, too, are trying to "green" up your act and want recommendations for great products, you have come to the right place!
