Burt's Bees with a Giveaway

At Burt's Bees, we don't waste our time — or yours — pretending to be something we're not. We prefer putting our energy into making the best natural personal care products out there to help you maximize your well-being.

We're proud that over half of our 150+ products are 100% natural! Still, we won't be satisfied until all of our products are 100% natural and we are currently aggressively pursuing this goal through reformulations and testing.

We label every product with a "natural bar." It's our way of helping you clearly identify the high level of natural ingredients used in our products.

Additionally, we use only natural colors in our products. Some of these include beta-carotene, chlorophyll, titanium dioxide and mica. These natural colors have been proven safe, unlike many artificial colors that have been banned by the FDA over the years. As far as fragrance components go, we use them only when absolutely necessary, and all of our fragrances are phthalate-free.

Since our products are made from as many natural ingredients as possible, we think it makes sense that most of our packaging is created from recycled materials, or is developed with recyclability and re-use in mind, like our easy-to-recycle aluminum containers.

We don't want to create any additional garbage on the planet, and work hard to reduce, reuse and recycle. For example, before we would launch our world famous lip balm in a plastic tube, it took us years to convince a plastic company to make recycled plastic for us. Now, that very same company is one of the leading manufacturers of recycled plastic.

And by the way, our packages are designed to hold just enough product for you to use up before it expires, so you don't end up throwing out half used tubes and jars. We're full of good ideas, naturally.

I am a big lover of Burt's Bees, always have been!  Its a great product line with natural products that we use everyday!  Every time I get a sunburn, which might I add is way to often, I reach for my Burt's Bees after sun lotion, its a lifesaver!  We use the lotions, the lip balms and more.  I love getting new moms the baby kit for baby showers.  Its a great kit and a great price like the other Burt's Bees products!

When Burt's Bees offered to send me some of their tinted lip balms I was all over it.  I love a good lip balm and Kristina loves them too!  She is always carrying some sort of lip balm, preferably with some color to it, in her purse.  I prefer that she uses something more natural than filled with who knows what so Burt's Bees is a great choice!  The colors were subtle but definitely had something to them, the moisturized well and lasted, I didn't feel like I had to reapply every 20 minutes like you have to with some brands.

Burt's Bees has offered up some tinted lip balms to one lucky Canadian reader!
