Product Review & Valentine's Day Giveaway from SKIN!!

Ladies, listen up!  A kissable Valentine giveaway is here...  Stephanie has outdone herself this time, and you'll want to hear about it.

Last month, Stephanie, owner of SKIN organic body care, sent me a jar of her Lemon Lips lip balm to test out.  If you missed my previous logs of SKIN's amazing all-natural organic products, you'll want to check them out (here and here).  You'll learn that the product line is truly topnotch, and I bet you'll even find a favorite of your own among the selection of pampering options.

I've been wearing the Lemon Lips lip balm almost every day since I received it in the mail a few weeks ago.  Surprise, surprise that I fell in love with it the moment I applied my first lemony glossy dab with my fingertip.  I've got to be honest... This is possibly the best truly natural lip balm I have ever used.  That is my honest and unbiased opinion.  You can check out the complete ingredients list here (as well as order yourself a jar), but it basically uses natural oils, honey, and beeswax to create a perfect blend in my opinion.  And, ladies, get this -- it's a glossy lip balm, the first ever that I have found in the natural world!!  We all love our gloss, and Lemon Lips delivers without all the glycerin, parabens, and whatever other junk you commonly find in synthetic lip glosses.  It's fun to wear stand alone, but also jazzes up your look over a natural lipstick shade.

I've been tracking the gloss power of this natural balm, and it does pretty well considering it only contains five simple ingredients.  I get about 3 hours of shine with normal wear, and 2 additional hours of moisture before needing to reapply (excluding after a meal or with frequent drinking).  And the taste is wonderful!  It's like eating a lemon drop each time, a yummy fresh taste and scent!

I've got great news -- Stephanie has graciously given me a second jar of Lemon Lips to raffle off in a giveaway!!  And in case you can't wait, and want to honor yourself or a friend with a kiss-friendly gift in time for Valentine's Day, SKIN is running a special on the Lemon Lips lip balm.  With any $30 purchase on CarenOnline now thru February 14th, you will receive a complimentary jar of SKIN's Lemon Lips super shiny lip balm.  Just enter coupon code "freelips" at checkout.  It's that simple!

I'll be picking out a bottle or two of SKIN's "Naked" face wash and taking advantage of the freebie!  :)  In the meantime, enter the giveaway below for a chance to win the jar of Lemon Lips shiny lip balm!!

  3. I'm not going to enter this contest because I was the winner of Skin's Healing Calendula Salve a few months ago. And I think someone else should have a chance to try their product. But I thought this would be a good time to tell everyone how wonderful Skin's products are! Not only does it smell DELICIOUS, it works INCREDIBLY! I suffer from heal cracks in the winter and for the first time in years and years - no heal cracks! I've also used it on a couple of scrapes and nicks and it really helps the healing. Love, love, love the healing salve and am going to try the lip balm. Thank you for introducing me to a wonderful product!
