What cute packaging!

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!!!

We received the lip balm.

That lip balm looks awesome!

I am obsessed with iherb actually. I am waiting on an order coming Friday! Unfortunately, Sun Warrior protein is still out of my budget and I have been dying to try it so I would definitely use the winning spree towards that!
