Maren from purefoodlife.com sent us a sample of her newly launched natural vegan skin care line called Butter your body. She makes her own beauty products, how cool?! You know Lori and I are big supporters of small companies, and love to see other entrepreneurs out there following their dreams!!!

That Butter Your Body Lip Balm looks great! Such great packaging and I like that the ingredients list is very short. And what the heck is black coconut oil? Love new finds!

With my iherb gift card (since I’ll be winning it ;) ) I will purchase Navitas Naturals Gelatinized Maca Powder and Dried Yacon Slices- both of which I have never tried before! Yum!

Great giveaway!!

Now, how do you get called up with an offer like that? Thanks for sharing: iHerb is great and they ship well to Alaska, which not every company does. I’ve never tried camu camu or yacon slices (although I grew yacon when I lived in CA and HI) and would love to try those. Also I’d love to try the Vega products.

I only just got a twitter account and don’t know how to tweet this – and I don’t have much time online either. But I linked you guys in my last blog post because I posted a mint choc recipe and I know that you love mint choc too!
love
Ela

So many products on iherb that I would be stoked to try. I’ve been wanting to try the vega bars and protein powders for forever, and I’d also love to try any Navitas products, especially the acai and yacon. Can’t wait to see how your purchases end up getting used.

That lip balm sounds awesome!

I would finally try that Garden of Life protein. I’ve been testing various powders out lately for a change of pace.

Love natural beauty products. Isn’t it great when you can easily read all the ingredients? A short list is even better. That is cute packaging.

I WANT MACA!!!! My hormones are begging for it! But it’s soooo expensive. All day long the fight goes on inside myself. My hormones sing at me: MACAMACAMACAMACAMACAMACA!!!! And the daddy in me goes, It’s too expensive. Take your vitex instead! :)

Can you tell I’m pmsing? :)
